    7046 in Canada —Tim Tosino
   I'm trying to find 7046 in the Vancouver Area. I've looked at TRU, Wal-Mart, Zellers, and none of them have the Fire Boat. I assume they came out to the US when the Rescue Base and Hovercraft came out. None of the Catalogues say its S@H only so why (...) (20 years ago, 14-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.town)
   
        Re: 7046 in Canada —Tim Strutt
     (...) A non-AFOL friend of mine gave me that set for my birthday in January. This is the Ottawa area, and I don't know which store he got it from, but my guess would be that if you can't find it, it's probably because it's such a small cheap set, (...)

     (...) Welcome to the new nature of retailing in Canada. I can't find the boat either in Southern Ontario (Niagara Falls).

   Dealers are not getting the 7046 till July, so it's a semi shop@home exclusive for a few months of preview. A very common thing these days. Same with Falcon, new falcon probably won't hit shelves till July retail wise, but shop@home has it already (20 years ago, 21-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.town)
   
        Re: 7046 in Canada —Tim Tosino
   (...) Why would TLC put it out in the Magazine and Catalogue with the other "Rescue" Sets (back in Nov.) if it gunning for a July '04 Release? I heard from a freind he saw the set two weeks ago at one particular TRU, but when I went there last week (...) (20 years ago, 22-Apr-04, to lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.town)
   
        Re: 7046 in Canada —Michael Shiels
   I am just going from my price list/catalog release dates. Sometimes the 'big guys' can get things around the same time as shop@home, but the smaller dealers for sure won't see it till July, same as the Falcon, and quite a few other sets as well. HP (...)
