Canadians?
Hi, I am new to all of this. I live in Canada and was wondering where in Canada, specifically Ontario I could get my hands on a Bit Char G/Microsizer or ZipZap? Or should I make the short hour drive to the States to pick one up there? Any help you can give a newbie Canadian would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi there, I'm new to the Bit Char-G hobby and I also happen to live in Ontario.
If you live in the GTA, you can buy the Tomy Bit Char-G cars at Pacific Mall. Many of the shops there sell them and their prices are decent. They also have a wide variety of them there -- not just the basic models. Beware that they also sell the knock-off versions too, so make sure you know what you're looking for. One shop there had a large selection of hop-up parts for them the last time I looked.
The Microsizer-branded ones are now beginning to appear in Toys 'R Us locations too -- so keep your eye out there.
My roommate and I both just ordered our first Bit Char-G's off eBay from a seller in Hong Kong. We went this route because they were a really good deal (sometimes you find a really good price and just need to be on at the right time).
Hope that helps you out.
