Serves them right. Here's why:

- The 2 Canadian stores near me have got NOTHING for the adult collector. Not one NECA, not much Star Wars Black Series, etc. They concentrate exclusively on baby and kids stuff.

- Their brick and mortar stores have a different toy inventory than their online (toysrus.ca) one. And when they share a common item, the price is often NOT the same.

- Speaking of the price, TRU can't seem to compete with the SMALLER online speciality stores like Northmencollectibles.ca and Canucktibles.ca.

Each time I decide to go hunting, I come back with NOTHING. They never get the newest lines until months after they hit the American market.

So why would I burn gas and waste my time when I can browse online at the aforementioned speciality stores, get the toys I want at a nicer price than TRU ever would be able to do?

TRU was THE store in the '80s and '90s - I have great memories going there with my Dad to shop for GI Joes and Transformers - but it has not kept up with the rest of the modern market. I say good riddance.
