To save $4? No, that's not worth the trouble. Just don't buy more from that store unless it's a gem, like SS Venom.

And that Rhino is a great figure.

Thats up to you but they are both pretty easy to find at the normal 7.99 pricepoint.

$9.99 is what my Target is charging for MU's now. I thought they went up in price because the TRU next door moved and there's no competition now. But it looks like the other hasbro toy lines in other parts of the country are doing the same price-jack.

at my target the new price is now 7.89 for Spider-man and I picked up Super Posable this week for that price, and Rhino is an outstanding figure. I really like the coloring on the spiderman line Green Goblin as well so I returned the Marvel U one that I had

I'm glad my Targets still sell these for 7.99. Now if they would only put out the new figures...

Still want that SS Venom and Scorpion...

I told you, senior citizens are buying them up for grandkids leading to soiled trousers. For who, hard to say, but someone's pants are going to be in need of a wash.

$9.99 is a real price for me and most Canadians to pay for MU, spiderman,etc... spiderman figures aren't worth the $$ but his villians are, I got rhino,vemom and stretch strike venom and all worth the $$ . but scuba spidey sucks super balls.

Couldn't agree more. Honestly, I think it's nice that some Americans are in the same boat as us now lol

All you gotta do is give up your free healthcare and denounce the Queen, and you too can have MU on sale for $6.99!

Nah, like Tiberius said. It's because we have to reprint special packaging in French on all our packaging. What does that have to do with Public Healthcare and the Royals? Nothing. No, we know who we can blame for that... Communists. I'm looking at you, Red Lanterns!

Is there a hefty tax to ship stuff from the US into canada? Just curious. I always wondered why things were so much more expensive up there, considering the currency is ridiculously close.

Once they hit the border the trucks have to be unloaded and loaded onto moose.. its really not cost effective.
