Makes sense for Lougheed to pick these guys over A3u. Sadly they don't seem to carry anything I'm personally interested in.

I wonder how they'll do there midnight releases in the mall though. Most malls generally dislike it even when Ebgames does them, so I wonder if they'll want a smaller store like tngames doing it.

Um, uh, cause people who go to A3U's physical location care? I try to go there every week when I'm working by them... plus I've been shopping with them for over a decade. They're a bit of an institution out here.

Are these guys well known? I'm not familiar with the board game scene but from a cursory glance at their website it seems like they are like A3U minus the transformers???

I've personally never been in their store before, but from what I have heard they seem to sell a larger variety of stuff and are less niche than A3u.

Wow, pretty underwhelming
a wall of funko pop and magic cards, yay?

They've also purged any comments about Ages from their Facebook post. I see they're trying to sweep this under the rug.

I've never heard of those guys. Looks just like another comic store selling comic and the typical cheap figures and hosting D&D game nights...don't think these guys sell anything MP, 3P, Gunpla or any Japanse stuff, or anything "premium" for that matter.

If that's what these guys do then they are not even in the same market as A3U. It's $10 Hasrbo figures VS $400 Hot Toys figures.

Because many Canadian people do not live in Toronto.

Wall of Pop figs and comic statues look a lot like the massive wall in that EBGames X or whatever the hell it's called on the first floor around the corner. They're gonna be happy as pigs in $#it to see this new store move in.
