Title: Adding to the database
Post by: tusko on July 29, 2011, 05:52:08 PM
Okay so I am Canadian and I bought what I'll call "Canadian DOTM Space Case".

Number on the bottom is 6-53569-6115-4 and on the front is say assortment 33810/32032.  Packaging is English only, while the Roadbuster counterpart I just bought is multilingual.

So is this a Canadian toy entry?  Or the US version?

Thanks!

If it's English-only, it's the US version.  If you bought it in Canada, this might be an instance of an exclusive that didn't get translated to the multilingual.  Sorta like the TRU Insecticons and Perceptor, if I'm not mistaken.  

If so, it wouldn't get it's own record...the release info of the US version would be amended to include the Canadian release.

Where'd you buy it? From a major retail chain, or the corner comic shop?

I'm betting on Zellers.  It seems to be missing the "only at Target" sticker.

Sorry, my double-speak is a little rusty (though yours is double-plus good). Are you confirming that you DID buy it at Zellers?

Correct.  This was a Zellers purchase.

Canadian Movie Trilogy Prime.
Box is different... but there is no entry space in DOTM Canadian section so what do I do?
Just crammed it in as a Deluxe which is wrong.

All taken care of.  :)

I created a new category and moved your submission.

Thank you!
Sadly the box is too wide for my light box set up.
I can't get rid of the background grey.
:(

The rest of the details should be accurate.  No assortment number which I thought is unique.

I've been working on a little feature to help with that kind of thing:

We'll see how it works.
