You're right, Toys^2 is in Toronto in the First Markham Place mall. I used to hit up that place when I'm in Toronto to pick up some Gundam kits or other; haven't bought anything from them in a long while now, though.
Someone from another board actually contacted Eric from Toys^2, and they said that, despite being the official Canadian (or is it NA?) distributor to Hot Toys, they weren't gonna be getting the exclusive Battle Damaged Mk.7.... oh well. It was listed as a US-only order either way; so I made an order anyways and getting mine shipped to my cousin in California.

As a matter of fact, I am a Kamen Rider fan as well, though mainly a Heisei Rider fan. I'll admit that I'm way behind on my show-watching though (I've seen everything starting from Ryuki up until the first handful of episodes of OOO). I don't own too many toys, though; just a couple of belts, and a handful of SICs.

You ought to give S.H.Figuarts a try. They're pretty much THE Kamen Rider figures to get at that scale and price.

Re: Post your hauls
From the pics I've seen I feel SIC is really hit or miss. The only SIC I have is the Dark Kiva and Ixa set. The only set I feel that is really worth it.
Careful with Figuarts, you start with one or two and it quickly balloons.....

Yeah, the aesthetic doesn't really work for most of the Riders I find.

Re: Post your hauls
Ah. SH Figuarts are cool, definitely, and they're probably the best show-accurate figures for Riders that you can get. But like you said, it's a BIG collection full of random exclusives. Don't think my wallet can handle more of that; getting all 6 SH Figuarts from the Scryed anime was expensive enough.
The only SICs that I have are Faiz, Kaixa, Delta (big fan of the Faiz series), and Kabuto. For the moment, anyways. I like them because I find that it usually (and "usually" is the key word here) brings out more of a cool/alien/mutant/badass look that's a departure from the show-accurate man-in-a-suit style.

Fortunately, Bluefin has made it MUCH easier on the poor ol wallet.

Ah that's right. But question on that then: so Bluefin brings a lot of these Figuarts over to the US, including some of the exclusives. Where do you (ie, "we Canadians") get them from then? BBTS and Amazon.com?...

Anime X Treme downtown gets most of the Bluefin carried stuff. I know Silver Snail has a s selection too. As for those of us who lives outside Toronto…I know Automaton carries Blue Fin stuff now.
