I saw the 40th Anniversary Hot Wheels Carships but not the regular starships at dollarama. No change in paint apps and honestly the cards looked pretty unspectacular in person.

 Whoa I didn't realize there was that many of us chasing sw hot wheels. For sure I'll post when I see something. I hadn't seen the 40th ones at my dollaramas, I'll have to keep my eyes peeled.
Has anyone picked up the larger hw elite ships? There's an x wing,  falcon and TIE fighter. I see them on Amazon.ca running for $60 to 80, from the pics they don't look any better than the old titanium ultras from the early 2000's but it's tough to say for sure unless you've seen them in person.

I've been collecting Hot Wheels SW character cars, starships and playsets.  I've stayed away from the all terrain kids series and the battle rollers.

Agreed the hot wheels stuff needs its own thread, and I'll let you know if and when I see the concept vehicles.  So far I think they've only been spotted in the USA.

It's for kids only, but toys r us has a lego falcon mini build today starting at 11am. They'll get to make and take a solo version mini falcon, get a "assemble your crew" solo poster with stickers, and a free $5 gift card for showing up.

Also the forum link at the top of the main page is correct but the forum link on the left of the main page is pointing to the old location.

Wampa Cave / Re: an update from TRU USA
« on: March 15, 2018, 02:18:52 PM »
Toys r us .ca should make sure their website can sell to the USA (currently they only ship to Canada ) and then put some focus on brand exclusives. If U.S. collectors have to order from toysrus.ca to obtain a TRU exclusive, that will drive alot of business to the website and help them compete against walmart & amazon.

If MGA and other toy companies did get together and buy up TRU Canada I can't see how that would work. If one of TRU's main problems is that they're not competitive enough because of their prices, how are they supposed to compete with walmart and amazon aggressively if those same toy companies (that hypothetically now own toys r us) are also trying to sell product to walmart and amazon?  I can't blame them for trying though.

All I know is that if they're going out of business it's not on account of me. The amount of stuff I've bought there over the years, oy. I did my part.
