[CAN] New POTC and Kingdoms sets spotted at TRU and Walmart

Post by hatcher » Fri May 06, 2011 9:00 am

Some of the Pirates of the Caribbean and Kingdoms sets have appeared in Barrie.

The north end Walmart has 3 Pirates sets, the Cannibal Escape, the London Escape, and the Mill.

The Toys R Us has all the Kingdoms sets (there are only 4 of them if I remember correctly) and all of the Pirates sets except the Captains Cabin. At least, I didn't see it with the others. I couldn't tell you if any of them had been marked up or not. Although the Isla de Muerta and the Fountain of Youth sets were both the same price ($24.99 I think) which seemed wrong to me.

They all look fantastic. Now to figure out how I can pay for all of them.

I was just at Toys R Us in Oakville and the 2 walmarts in Burlington.

Walmart on Dundas only had Whitecap bay, that was it. The Walmart on Brant had nothing.

TRU in Oakville had all the POTC except for Captain's Cabin, most of Alien Conquest (except the saucer that beams the guy up and maybe another smalls set?) all the new Kingdoms, some new creator (Lighthouse) and city (Harbour and Marina).

If anyone could give me a heads up on where to find Captain's Cabin in the area i would *really* appreciate it!!!

I didn't see any, but I wasn't looking for it so its possible I missed it. I'll be in again tomorrow (hopefully) and I'll take a look.

Update - The Toys R Us in Barrie does have the Alien Encounter sets. Not sure which ones though, I was in a rush.

Also was in the south end Barrie Walmart, and they had all of the POTC sets except the Queen Anne's Revenge.

Happy Hunting.

I must be blind as a bat...when I went to Markville yesterday I didn't see Queen Anne's Revenge at Walmart but saw the rest of the POTC line.

Now you're making me second-guess myself! I work in the mall so I can confirm it for you tmrw, but I'm pretty sure I saw it on the bottom shelf on the endcap with the rest of the POTC sets.

I found the Queen Anne's Revenge at the Barrie Walmart yesterday. They are just throwing them up around the toy aisles where ever they find room. Three different aisles! Come on Walmart, get it together!

And we Canadian consumers get gipped again... our dollar's worth more, but apparently Lego still costs more north of the border. Time for a trip to Buffalo, we should carpool.

Checked the Walmart again today at Markville and they do indeed have the Queen Anne's Revenge.

sidenote: Mastermind Toys across the street from Markville also has all the POTC sets in stock.
