Wow, so Mattel has already been taking care of us Canadians better than Jakks. There's been a few misses (really, what is up with us only getting half of the Elite line?) but over all they've spoiled us. Today I was greatly surprised to see Legends 2 at a Zellers store here. This is way faster than Jakks got us their figures (TNA still isn't here).
So to make this a discussion, how is Mattel treating everyone else around the globe?

I wouldn't say they've spoiled us. If that was the case we would have gotten Basic 4 and 5 on time with the U.S. as well as all of the two-packs (I think we've just begun getting series 3 in stores...didn't even get Series 2). The Elites as you said is a big deal. It really blows that we only get two per series. It's good that we're getting the Legends, but Mattel still needs to up their game in Canada. It's too bad too because their figures are fantastic.

I found that where I live in Ontario that nothing comes in for Mattel stuff. We have lots of Flex Force figures, and I have seen the Basic Series 1 - 4 come in, the Wrestlemania Heritage figures and the ppv Survivor Series line. And of course the 2 out of 6 Elite's we get from the first 3 series of that line.
I have yet to see Entrance Greats, Royal Rumble ppv line, Basic Series 5, Elite Series 4 or the Tag Team lines, let alone the Legend series.

No Legends at all in the UK (and no plans apparently), and I'm kinda having trouble finding anything other than Flexforce, Basic 2 and Rumble/Survivor Series. =/
TRU is pretty good for Elites, but my "local" stores have been patchy for anything else.

Spoiled us? I haven't seen Legends 1 yet, we do not get half the elite series, we get two elites, and I still have only seen the HHH and Batista ones. I haven't seen any PPV series except for the first Wrestlemania one, the two packs are only available at TRU and even then, hard to find the newest lineups, all I keep finding is Dibiase/Rhodes, Santino/Beth and Jericho/HBK. I have yet to see any entrance greats either. They are far from ''spoiling us''. What Zellers did you find them at?

Toys Toys Toys is such a rip - I don't know how those guys stay in business. I find speciality shops like Silver Snail and Heroes World to have huge mark-ups too.
Better off buying it online - I know RSC ships via UPS and it literally takes 2 days to arrive at my door step
But it's just my luck though. I'm originally a G.I. Joe fan and for years TRU/WalMart would never stock the shelves with Joe-product while the shelves were crammed with Jakks crap. Now I want to collect Mattel and the shelves are sparse.
