Hey Em, I think the employee was definetly wrong. However, I did discover something that may have been the reason why the dolls were removed from the shelf.

The 2-pack (Cleo De Nile and Deuce Gordon) box I got is in spanish. So far I visited two Zellers stores after buying my dolls and they all had only the 2-pack,  four or so of each and the boxes were all in spanish! Thinking maybe this happened with the other dolls at Toys R Us and maybe they sent the dolls back and haven't had them replaced?

I don't know.

I did call a Toys R Us (Different store then where the guy said the dolls were recalled), and they said that they are NOT going to get them again. These dolls are so hot, how can they not restock them? Do they not like sales??? LOL. The employee was probably wrong and I may send Toys R Us Canada and email just out of curiousity.

I can however say that I am able find and buy the 2 pack of dolls if anyone is interested. It is $39.99 while the singles I purchased were $19.99.

What's my Favorite doll: Frankie Stein! I Love her hair, tempted to get my hair done a similar way. Lol.

Oh....I also bought a super cute Monster High Bag. At $30 it was a unnessecary splurge but I loved it and it transforms between a two different purces, bag and backpack. Also, plenty of these left at a nearby store if anyone is interested. But no other merchandise at all.

At the antiques mall I got a kenner care bear plush for brave heart lion today . He is in great shape with only a slight rub on the heart on his back side for about 6.50  I also paid about six dollars for a box of dinosaurs attack cards. The question is do I leave the box of 48 card packs alone or do I open  them ?

  Here is a picture of brave heart

Went thrifting this weekend at the Goodwill outlet and a nice thrift shop nearby.
The thrift store was holding a 4 for 99 cents deal on the stuffed animals, so I went a bit crazy! Had some great finds though and got several new species! (I'd like to eventually have a stuffie representative for every species that has one...) And new characters from movies (same deal as the species) including a great Bruce from Finding Nemo, A super cute Rudolph plush and a pikachu that says her name!
At the goodwill outlet got some more stuffies, some barbies, Fawn from Tinkerbell's friends, some newer LPS, 1 G3 adult pony and a G3 baby pegasus pony, some Barbie Kellys and a Kidcore Kelly look a like!

(I also got some awesome Ice Cream String Lights, Purses, and  Dumbledore's Army tshirt)

In total I got 62 new plushies :x
It all cost me under $30!
