    Funny story.

    i was envious of all of you in the US that kept getting deals at Rossy and watched plenty of YouTube vids on the subject. I thought that Rossy was a US only store but recently found that we have some in Canada ( never saw one before)

    well this morning I drove past one and decided to turn around and have a look see.

    to my surprise, the store had 4 Riddler and 2 Jokers on post !!!

    i was so excited that I bought the 2 Jokers… never saw one Mego figure in a retail store here in Montreal before. Mind you, it’s not the $5 US that you guys get them for but 16.99$ Can.

    i really didn’t need these but again, got excited in the spirit of things.

      I had no idea Canada had Rossy's, maybe because the closest one to me is in Sudbury!

        Very nice find and pick up. I live in New England and I’ve never heard of Rossy’s, is that the same as Walmart or Target?

            oh no ! These are tiny little retail stores, the dollar store next to it was twice the size!

            They carry a small variety of stuff but very limited. Don’t know how to compared it with something comparable…

            they seem to be located in areas with lower income.

                I finally got around to opening the Super 7 Micronauts I got a while back. They are brilliant. The Microtron was something I wasn't super into, and now it's my favourite.

                  I had to out and pick up something and based on my research 2 Rossy stores were on the way. Decided to make a road trip of it.

                  first Rossy store only had 1 Riddler on the shelf.

                  the funny thing, it’s was more expensive compared to the last store.

                  as for the people that never saw a Rossy store like myself, here is what they look like.

                  these stores are in small shopping mall where my wife would never go !!! Mind you my wife is a Princess, I think I got her from Disney…

                  this is the second Rossy store I go to and its always beside a goodwill store and a dollar store.

                    For my second stop at a Rossy, got a little surprise!

                    IMG_3187.jpg

                    this store had 4 Riddlers and a lonesome Superman ! And at the 16.99 price tag from my first visit to a Rossy.

                    he looked sad …

                    IMG_3189.jpg

                    so I bought him !

                    i saved SuperMan !

                    the cashier told me these were on sale not long ago…

                    These cost the same as a McDo meal so better to get a Mego then eat ! Lol

                      Well I saw this posted for sale in Toronto at a high asking price but the figure looked mint. I dont have this version loose so I did some research and threw a offer to the seller that accepted.!

                      Here is the figure:

                        The

                        figure came in. Real happy with it. The box is damaged but I bought for a mint loose figure, not boxed...

                        Here she is this morning.
