Or they just get rid of the offending bit that blocks the handles from going in. I can't believe they didn't check that when they altered the design... or didn't care, if they did.

Man, this shitty exchange rate sucks. I have a good lead for an MP Rodimus trailer for $62 US shipped, but that's still $80 in Canadian funds.

Looks like Walmart.ca took down the never-in-stock listings for Arcee and Chromia...so I guess that indicates that Generations wave won't see mass market release in Canada.

With Combiner Wars deluxes and voyagers now showing up in stores, I think it is highly unlikely that we'll see Chromia, Arcee, or Brainstorm at TRU, Walmart, or what's left of Target. Winners might get them in like with Universe 2.0 Ratchet many years ago, as might specialty stores like Toy Traders or Metropolis Comics. I think we're out of luck for mass retail, though.

My shipment with Arcee and Chromia left BBTS on Jan 12, but I still haven't received it. It's either still sitting with Customs (hopefully that doesn't mean it'll get dinged for duty), or it's "lost". If it's lost, I still have to wait almost until the end of February to submit a lost package claim with BBTS.

Hopefully it's not lost. Mine shipped January 14th and I got them on the 29th. Could be just delayed and will show up in the next few days.

TT already got theres 1 1/2 weeks ago, they had some Chromias left when I was there last, but could be gone now

Hopefully. Well, I won't be doing much more ordering from the US for a while with the dollar being the way it is.

Same here, way too pricy now. I only made an exception for Arcee & Chromia because I anticipated them being hard to get, and the CW Legends because the set price was still comparable.
