What Is Wrong With Toys R Us Canada?

I just got a call from the girl at our local Toys R Us to tell me that they would not be getting in any of the exclusive Batmobile for the six inch figures and that she was never aware the produce was available. To me that is strange. It's suppose to be an exclusive toy only sold in Toys R Us stores but apparently not in Canada. I can get one in GUAM but not across the border? That is so stupid. I checked on EBay and they now go for double the price (as I expected they would). I thought about ordering one from Toys R Us in America but I need a US address to send it to and that is a lot of hassle for someone else to take on. I guess this car will have to remain a hole in my collection.

Kal this thing is pricey for what it is at $60-$70 range so as nice as it would be to have this big peice of hollow plastic you might be better off with out it buddy. The reviews i saw/read of it is mix and let me down but it's no lie it still does look great.

And I do go for the look. I have my Riddler and Batman and Robin but I am stopping there with this line. I feel really let down. You are right. I could get a great Monster High figure and still have money left over for some Funkos if I see some good ones. Thanks for being real with me, my brother.

Hey no problem Kal and at lest you got some of the figures i have yet to find them in my area so once i have the extra cash(after Christmas most likely which really isn't that far off)Am playing on buying a few along with a few more Masters of the Universe Classics. : )

Kal said...

I saw you page. You have some great Classics in your collection. That is one line that got away from me. I will have to check if you have the one that I do. If you don't it's yours. It's a cool line with well made and substantial figures.

Kal, you must have a Gringo friend willing to lend you an US address and remail your package.

i passed on this twice... it seems like it should make sounds & light up for sixty bux... may never see again for all i know, but just could not commit. And I'm into the Batmobile & own several.

Kal said...

Maybe the toy gods are trying to tell me something, that my money could be better spent. You are right, it should light up. The only Batmobiles I have are the Tumblr and the Super Powers one, loose...and missing a window.

I was lucky to get one at Target for $50 and was hoping to get another to open and enjoy, but they most likely will not becoming to stores again. If you need help with getting one let me know.

I need to read more reviews and see one in person.
