Hey guys. I've just now started to look at the prices since it's coming up next weekend. I'm seeing that the starter pack is 89.99 when I thought it was 74.99. Is there different prices for USA and Canada? Really bummed because I thought it was gonna be cheaper. Also saw that in the USA the cars are 14.99 I think and here it's 18.99. Why the raise?

It's because of the exchange rate, unfortunately. One US dollar is currently worth about $1.30 Canadian, so all the Canadian prices are about 30% higher than the American ones. This is also why Amiibos have jumped up from from $13 to $16, and why new release console games jumped from $60 to $75.

Disney Infinity has made the (very aggressive, IMO) decision to not raise their Canadian prices, despite the exchange rate. They are one of the only video games that has done this, but it means their game and figures are way cheaper in Canada than Skylanders, Amiibos, and the LEGO stuff.
