No Whamshells yet, but I plan on checking everyday this week. Last week the TRU shipments arrived on the off days (Wednesday and Friday). I don't even bother our EB Games store. They get so little stock and it's usually not the new stuff... even then they're gone in no time.

Toys r us is saying again that they'll have something new on Friday May 4th for sure. They already sold the 3 pack with Camo, Ignitor and Warnado so it's likely the single packs of the last 3... or at least I'm hoping so anyhow.

hopefully the TRU thing will be good. My wife is already planning to be there before opening, just in case.

last time i was there for an opening ppl were ruthless...pushed and shoved some retired ppl aside and to the ground to get the electronics sections...very pathetic. i was happy to see that tru had signs plastered all over the displays limiting ppl to 2 purchases per person...served those a holes right

lol, where was that? My wife only had one complaint when she was waiting the last time, and that was that some lady sent her kid to the front of the lines in hopes that no one would notice/tell her kid to go to the back of the line. Boy was that lad ever wrong... there were only about 15 people though and of that, only about 10 headed to electronics.
Although this time might be a different story... even if it is only Camo/Warnado singles, there are a lot of people that still need them and know they are coming soon... could cause a little more traffic.

Man I never had any problems at the Toys r us Dragon's peak event. Everyone was polite and orderly. We simply went to the front desk one by one got our item and then went through the check out.
Surprised to hear how badly behaved some people can be regarding this

Any mention of Wham-shell or Camo and Warnado singles? I already picked up the 3 pack last week at Best Buy. |

No Whamshells today. Was told they are expecting a delivery during the week. The sales guy felt that there was a good chance Whamshell would be in there.
The big thing for Fridays event sounds like stock of the Adventure Packs (particularly Dragons Peak) and the Legendary three-packs. I don't think they're making a big deal about the final three... I didn't pay a lot more for my Legendary figures but I could kick myself for even spending a penny more. The only thing TRU had left today was a shelf FULL of about twenty Legendary Trigger Happys. *sigh* |

Good thing my mom will be with me. I'll need a second person if it's limited to 2 each and they have all 3 of the last figures I need in signals with out the 3 pack.

I've had only good experiences with the TRU events. No real issues and I was always able to get what I went for. I'm usually in and out in minutes.
I did hear about some lady going a bit psycho and going behind the counter cutting boxes open with her car keys... but I wasn't there to witness it. I guess the insanity followed later when the late comers found most of the good stuff gone. I'll be checking for Whamshell again today... |

Too late You were right though... nothing there today. I was told they were getting stuff during the week but I'm sure you're right... it makes more sense to stockpile for the event. It's obvious nobody is interested in Legendary Trigger Happy... shelves are still full. |

The ebgames.ca website has Drobot in stock. I ordered three figures from them a short while ago... no shipping charge (might need a minimum purchase though) and they arrived in two days.
Too bad you weren't looking a week or so ago. While the shelves are full of Legendary Trigger Happy right now... they were filled with Drobots and Bash for the last little bit. |

The local Toys r us has told me several times they would have something NEW for Friday so I'm going to hold them to that if all this is just adventure packs and the legendary 3 pack which they had in stock anyhow when I visited in person last friday.

I bought a regular Chop and Bash the other day. I'm so unlikely to load up the game again though. It's all about the toy collection at this point.

Well the local toys r us in Oakville opens at 9:30 so I want to leave the house at 8:45 at the latest if not earlier to be the first in line. Last time I left slightly later was the line was just forming as got their so I should be fine other then waking up much earlier then normal.
Yah it's about the collection more then the game for me too at this point. Last time few times I fired it up for just a couple minutes to register my characters and that's it

What a disappointment... ice pack, dragon's peak, undead pack, and the 4 Legendaries. That was it! No singles or character 3 packs and definitely no wham shell.
Waste of time... |
Zing Blue Sparx Gems: 616 |
#1142 Posted: 13:43:43 04/05/2012
Agreed. My store just had the adventure packs and legendaries. Don't waste your time today.

#1143 Posted: 14:27:19 04/05/2012
That is highly disappointing. It amazes me that they released so few triple packs and no singles for wave 5 and seem to have just stopped. Activision has some very weird sales practices...
That being said... May the 4th be with you my friends!

ya i went to the tru at markham/lawrence and no wave 5 at all. pretty pathetic if you ask me. that dude who scored the camo 3 pack at the tru in vaughan REALLY lucked out. hope it isnt the guy asking $75 bucks for it on kijiji . anyho i picked up the dragons peak to add sunburn to my collection. they had 6 of them on the shelves along with a who;e bunch of ghost roasters and lengendary 3's

Nope... Camo is out of his package, sitting cosy in his case, being well taken care of by my son. I have absolutely no interest in reselling anything.
I'd say TRU in Vaughan had about 12 to 16 of the adventure packs (sans Pirate)... and the same number of Legendary 3-packs (to give the couple of dozen neglected Legendary Trigger Happys some company). |

Calgary sunridge TRU had camo 3-pack in stock. Wife just picked it up because we wanted 2 of camo/warnado. If anyone needs an Ignitor that lives in Calgary, let me know... this will be Ignitor #3 for us... and we really don't need it lol.
