What about us 3rd class citizens?   :o  We don't get the German exclusives and we don't get the USA exclusives.  :(
I'm hoping that the pop stars are really a North American exclusive - and TRU will be selling them in Canada too!  :)

Most TRU exclusives are available in Montreal. The only thing we missed out on are Target sets. For instance both FAO Victorian and soldier are available here.

Right you are, DsD, we also got the FAO "exclusives" here in Victoria... so I am really hoping that the pop stars make it here as well!  But there were some exclusives that were not available here.  Now that we are getting Target stores in Canada, it's really too bad they don't still have their exclusives.

There was a Victorian truck exclusive? When did that happen?

The blue one 4083. It was for a store that ordered it for an anniversary. It is the same type of situation that TRU did with the FAO. The order was initiated with Geobra from a company that bought them all wholesale and resold them. The set never was sold by Geobra

That is way it is a bad example, Geobra had no say in how it was distributed AKA custom order
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

It was an exclusive only sold at the German "Karstadt" stores, several years ago.

Thanks. From a picture I saw I thought it was enclosed. This is like the older Victorian except with different markings? I wonder if that will be an add-on one of these years.
