Finally after the long wait and letting the Americans have all the fun, Hasbro has finally released the Magstrike in Canada. I have checked out a few stores and they have finally started selling the Nerf Magstrike at the Zellers in the Mississauga Square One shopping mall. They retail at $39.99 which I thought was a little steep but hey I wasnt going to wait untill Walmart starts carrying them to save a few bucks. As of today they have 3 remaining. One blue and two red.

Does anyone else think the black kid on the front of the box looks stoned?

Other Canadian should post here to say where they have found either guns. We are still waiting for the long shot.


EDIT: The magstrike is also found at the Erin mills zellers.

Two weeks ago, I went around the Montreal area on vacation and found a magstrike in Walmart for only 35$ Canadian. Not sure why yours is 40$. Anyways, I think that Walmart was the one of the first to release the magstrike in Canada. In the french area too... No sign of Longshot yet though.

[quote]Does anyone else think the black kid on the front of the box looks stoned?[quote] I forward that statement. I have been asking myself that question ever since I bought the crossfire with the black kid on it.

Just be happy you have one. I can't find a single store, not even a TRU that carries BBBs much less the mag or longshot.

The black guy looks totally normal to me. How did you get that idea?

You gotta see the box in person and up close. After a second glance at the kid I am convinced he is stoned.

Don't like double posting but got some great news for other canucks.

The Longshot is available at Zellers in square one In Mississauga, Ontario. They had one left on the shelves after I picked mine up.

Don't have, not dont got :P

You North Americans (continent, not country) get all the fun. The only nerf I can find in English shops are those little rugby balls with tailfins that whistle when you throw them... bleagh...

I was just saying to the person I quoted that the proper phrase is 'Don't have', not 'Dont got'

They are $10 cheaper than TRU and Zellers.
Happy shopping.
