I haven't posted for what seems like a while. But it was worth it with what I found today.
It along with what seemed like dozens more are at Square One Zellers. They also had Dreadwing and Arcee.
Happy hunting!

From the 14th to the 20th, Zellers will have Optimash Prime on sale. He will be priced at $8 instead of $10.99, so grab him if you're looking for him!

I was thinking today of getting the Blackout Scorponok 2pack.
And speaking of which, does that 2pack go on sale as a voyager figure?

I was there last weekend and they had a few of the 2-packs. I don't know if they'll go on sale, I guess we'll just have to wait and see... I think it would since it's the same price point but I don't know for sure.

There is quite a few Classics Soundwaves though.

In B.C. all of the Toys R Us have Wave 1 of Classics Legends but still no sign of Wave 2 Deluxes or Jetfire. Has anyone even seen Jetfire on Canadian shelves yet? How I long for him...
Go to Zellers in Lansdowne Center if you're anywhere near Richmond. They had one in stock yesterday.

For good reason too, he is a great little figure.

Does anyone know a TRU in the lower mainland that still has the Blackout Scorpy 2pack?
Metrotown, Surrey or Langley TRU certainly do not.
On another note, tones of Starscreams and Ironhides at Surrey TRU.
What are the chances of the 2pack TRU exclusive being restocked in the months to come?

That is exactly what I did. So I brought the cashing wench a bar code from the Legends figures and got all three for under $30.
Oh, BTW 1337sauce and TDK, front paged and credited!

I was in the Orillia Zellars yesterday and they had the voyager Megatron movie toy.
Happy Friday the 13th to all!

I can't seem to find V-Megs, but maybe it's for the best. I'll wait for TRUs sale.

Good to see another Quebecer on the boards!
Is Carta Magica near Legends Action Figures?

More or less. It's in the yellow part of the Plaza, between Beaubien and Bellechasse, at about halfway between the two.
And glad to see another fellow Quebecer here as well! I was starting to think I was the only one posting in this thread.

First went to TRU and got $40 back from the price difference on the Voyager sale since I paid $29.99 and they are down to $22.97. Got Ironhide and Barricade with the savings. Well pleased with them.
Then swung by Walmart and picked up both Voyager Optimus Prime and Voyager Megatron! Then swung by Zellers and picked up the new Concept Camaro Bumblebee, Arcee and Dreadwing. Got two concept BBs. Gonna open one. Better than paying some of the ridiculous prices that they are going for on eBay!
Think I am going to I am so

I agree, that is the right amount of O's in the word awsome to best discribe BB2. By the by, front paged and all that whoo-haa.
Of course you know, this is goign to drive me mental.

Thanks D_S as always. I know what you mean about going mental. I hate being a completist sometimes.
All the other figures I noted are just as good with the exception of Dreadwing. Based on the robot mode pics shown on the card I believe he is top heavy and his waist joints will be loose and also won't be strong enough to keep him from toppling over. Only thing I don't like about the CDN deluxe figures is as usual the tri-lingual packaging which means that we get no tech specs on the back of the card.
I also forgot to mention an error on all the latest wave of CDN deluxe figures. 'Bonecrusher' on the back is called 'Bonescrusher'. Not a big deal but there it is.

Did you also notice that all all of the wave 2 figures are in Decepticon Packaging? Friggin Canada.

QFT! Mine has been dying for quite some time. I think that as of today it is in a spastic seizure of some sort.

That is correct. OP, Blackout and Megs were all found quite easily. Megs was the most easy to find, then Blackout and finally OP all for obvious reasons. SS was nowhere to be found. Short-packed maybe or someone with an unhealthy fixation that needs some psychotherapy or just not in the case assortment (heaven forbid)?

I haven't seen any 74 BB either since the movie came out! I was just at Coquitlam TRU and they were full of Scorpy, Wreckage and Jazz! No leader figures or Voyagers! They had the Scorpy/Blackout Desert Pack though!

Cool. Just doin' my job, tho'. Still, pretty cool.
BTW, anybody got the chance to spot the Blackout/Scorponok two-pack? It's out in the States and I think I remember someone saying in was out in BC, but nothing else.

I didn't take note of which one where, but I recall seeing it in Ontario.

Dude, if you're looking for some Voyagers, you really should go get them while the sale's still on. Besides, you can pick them up while you're out to get supplies for your shed, no?
