We have got Funkeys! They are like Webkinz, but with better graphics, more challenging games, and they can also play offline as well as online. Play games and complete objectives to earn money, buy items, and decorate your crib.

No. That was a lie. Duke Nukem Forever is not in stock, and for many good reasons. First off, we don’t sell video games, and more importantly, that game is never coming out. Ever. The title of this blog was simply a clever scheme to get people to read this thing. Anywho… Let’s get on with the news of what’s going on in this place.

Well. That was one wild convention-filled weekend. On Friday Dave and I make the trek over to the Toronto Sport Card Expo, and it was exactly like the video we had posted of it earlier. Which was amazing and huge, lots of great merchandise there. I saw cards I never thought could exist, and also picked up a Denis Hamel autographed photo, which probably shouldn’t exist.

We also got to go to the Montreal Toy Con, where we sold some anime gear and bonded with our compadrés in the booming Montreal toy industry.

So sports fans, we received a butt-load of Webkinz in this week. First and foremost we got the Whimsy Dragon, (commonly referred to as the Whimsy Dagron) the most mystical of all Webkinz, perhaps second only to the Googles. Unfortunately we only managed to get our hands on 6 of them, but there should be more of them coming in later. As for the other Webkinz that are worth far less experience we also have the Gecko, Samoyed, Lioness, L’il Chicken, and the L’il Black Poodle.

Ame Comi Heroine Series 4 Pre-Order! Glorious day! The prototype images for Ame-Comi Heroine Series 4 Have been released. Check them out ASAP! We have Wonder Woman and Cheetah (who freaks me out immensely) both ready for pre-order. Also if you haven’t caught a glimpse of series 3, do it now! Donna Troy and Zatanna.

Justice League International Series 1 Pre-Order. Thats right, DC Direct has gone retro with this new line. We have it now available for pre-order, and the pictures look like something out of the Brady Bunch. The line starts its debut with Batman, Black Canary, G’Nort, and Ice. They should be available just in time for Christmas ’08.

Halo 3 Series 3: Update! McFarlane has finally released the prototype images of Halo 3 Action Figures Series 3 so we have updated our Halo 3 Action Figures Section. There are also 3 new figures that have been announced. For those of you who have already pre-ordered these feel free to take a look and if you would like to add to your order give us a call 613-825-0688 and we can fix you up. This series looks even better than the last two.

Bakugan Battle Brawlers. What’s new? Well, Bakugan is still one of our top sellers, and our supplies are running lower and lower. It seems there is some sort of drought going on all over the city, and our suppliers in the United States and Montreal are running empty as well. GET IT WHILE YOU CAN! In the mean time, check out this great video we found, its got clips from the Bakugan TV Show put to our favorite left wing song. We aren’t gay though, or left wing. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Enjoy!

Glorious day, Anton is going to game 2. We are gona need his shot blocking awesomeness should we travel into a parallel dimension where we can make it to the next series.

We got in some cool stuff today, and restocked some old stuff. I think the best way for me to do this is in point form in no particular order, so here we go!

• Remember how we got in the awesome Picard in Command Chair figure? Well we just got a special San Diego Comic Con Exclusive Commander Kirk in Chair. As we know all great men sit in chairs, and the only true measure of how great that man is… is the size of his chair.
• We have re-stocked our Webkinz again, lil’ kinz mice and webkinz tiger snakes are back in for the 3rd or 4th time after selling out in just hours!
• DC Trinity Series 1 is in stock, its got Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and Ra’s al Ghul, at $14.95 each. Buy all four and get them at $47.95, big savings and also cheaper shipping if you are buying long distance!
• There are some new Transformers in store today, they probably wont last too long. Stealth Bumblebee, Premium Jazz, Stockade, and Premium Barricade. They can be seen here.
• The new set of Chaotic, Zenith of the Hive, is now in stock in store and also online. The prices for them are the same as the first series of booster packs, $3.95 per pack and $84.95 for a whole box of packs. Check it all out here!
• The new Winnie the Pooh Pee-a-Pooh series is finally out. It appears they are re-releasing the first series with a couple new animals as well. They call it Series 1 -- Special Edition. They are all priced at $1.77 each, consequently $2 after GST and PST.
• Oh yeah and our Montreal counterparts put up a shameless Bakugan video on youtube. Check it out below. I cannot help but be mesmerized by the music.

 I hope to see you all at our hockey card trading day coming Saturday April 19th from 2-4PM, it looks like I am going to try and bring Mighty Ducks or perhaps even Mighty Ducks 2. Is there a Mighty Ducks 3? If there is, it is probably like Ducks in Space with little Charlie having animatronic arms that can shoot the puck so fast it sends Goldberg back to his oversized crib. I don’t know about you guys, but I’ve a hankering for Emilio Estevez.

Well I think that is all for now! Until next time…

Cheers,

Hey Peoples…

If Steve is done plugging his WoW card game addiction, I would like to take some time to write about a few random things while I have the chance.

As you’ve seen, our ever popular Hockey Card Trading Day is upcomming, infact its April 19th, yup, only 10 days away! I hope everyone is ready, and will have their traders with them. It should be a blast. I know I normally bust a box of something at our card days…Who knows what I will open this time…Last time, you guys saw me open a box of Black Diamond, and get nothing of note…Hopefully my luck will be changed this time around.

We have not received any new hockey products lately, I am just as upset about that as you guys. But! There is good news on the card stock front in the store, I just re-filled the Ottawa Senators single cards in the shelf! I know you guys love the single cards, hopefully there is something for everyone. And, if not, remember, just ask one of the stff members if we have something, chances are, if we do not have it right then, I can find it for you. Remeber that for our card day.

We hope to have a brand new display of hockey McFarlanes before the trading card day, all you hockey lovers will be drooling over all the sweet pieces the store is hoping to get. I know I went nuts when I saw the list. If you want, check out of E-Store and look at the McFarlane hockey section, the figures are really well done.

Ok…Enough about cards, we had received the new Webkinz in late last week, and in no time, we sold out of the Lil Kinz mouse, it was like, not even 48 hours later, and we sold like 50, well done! Guess they were quite popular. I really like the chicken, doesn;t seem like a lot of people agree with me on that one though.

For you Littlest Pet Shop fans, we got a few new ones in today, I can;t remember exactly which ones, but their new, and soft. Buy them so I don’t….Seriously.

Let’s see…What else…Well, spring has finally arrived here, the snow is melting, and I see more and more people coming out of hibernation. I hope that we will be busy within the next couple of weeks as people purchase new summer toys and what not…

O yeah…While I am still going, we still have an abundance of Bakugan 3 packs, the blue and tan packs, at $24.95, which is a pretty good deal for 3 Bakugan. I can’t believe how popular these things still are! I guess it’s here to stay!

So, the Sens play their first playoff game tonight, no one thinks they can beat the Penguins, well, I think otherwise. But that is another rant for another day…There is no support in this city! GO SENS GO BABY!!! WOOOO!!!!

Well…now my hands hurt from typing all that out…So, in keeping with tradition, here’s another card from my collection for all to see:

Keep on living,

Dave

Hey Internet peoples!

I am not sure how to follow Denis Hamel, scoring his, I guess ONLY, NHL goal, Ha…Kidding, he had 2…

But, Grayson is right, our Hockey Card Trading Day is coming fast and I hope everyone has their traders ready, It should prove to be a great time for all. I will be there of course, and if asked, I can give out signed 8×10 photos of myself, I know how I am your favorite Toys On Fire employee, so, that’s the least I can do…Yeah…

Bakugan is still the hottest thing since sliced bread here, we sell more of that stuff than we can count. It’s crazy. I hope it is an awesome game for all you kiddies out their who’s parents are shelling out the money for it. I hope you all thanked them!

So..We also have new Ottawa Senators stuff in the store, including T-shirts and Ball caps for children. I know, were not a clothing store, but it is cool to have. Not sure how many people want the Sens stuff now, but that is another rant for another day.

Yesterday, April 2nd, we received the newest WEBKINZ toys, the chicken, lizard, American cocker spaniel, and the little mouse! They are $18.95 each, with the exception of the mouse, which is a Lil’ Kinz, and is priced at $14.95. I know they won’t stay on the shelves long, so rush over to get them!

For all you Hannah Montana fans, we received a 6 inch stand up figure of her, it’s pretty neat, we only have 2, so get them while you can before Grayson buys them both…He loves her.

I guess that is about it for me, but, keeping with the tradition of me showing off a card from my collection, here’s another sweet piece that I have in my collection:

Peace out!
