I was at TRU today and saw a Collector's Tin just like the first target one but it had substitute pets in it. It had cat #53 instead of the kitten on the top row. Two panda's up top the purple eyed one and the regular one from the tin. It had the #48 pink poodle instead of the regular one and it had the grey chinchilla in the bottom corner. There might have been another substitute but I had to get a ride to do my running around because my car needs $500 worth of work. I was pressed for time. I am not sure. I couldn't get pics because I didn't have a camera. They are the original style of pets.

That's really interesting... Wonder if it will show up here in the US? It would certainly be a good opportunity for people who didn't get the original tin, even if some of the pets aren't the original ones. It sounds like it still has the mega-cute peach snail

No they are the old style of pets. Sears Canada has the original tin with all the original pets in their catalogue. If anyone is interested I can order it for you. Shipping will be more expensive unless you don't want the tin.

I never thought to look online. I just checked but all they have for a picture is the original pets that should be in there. I will take my camera when me and my dh go into Belleville. No work again for him. Its not looking really good.
BTW the price is $39.99. Maybe target isn't releasing another tin because they aren't really exclusive anymore. Funny story. I was in walmart today and we saw the Littlest Pet Shop Guess Who game (original version) on the shelves with..... A TRU exclusive sticker on it. There were at least 4 of them. What on Earth is going on.
