We have a couple of new sightings to share with Canadians. Both come from Cybertron.ca. First we have the Dropkick and KSI sentry deluxe toys from the Studio Series line. Thes were found at the Maxie et Cie. grocery chain in Quebec for the same standard $30 price point. This grocery chain is part of the Loblaws family so those toys could show up at Loblaws as well.

Also, while EB Games had the Siege leaders, they are now showing up at Walmart as well.

Finally, the trailer less reissue of Optimus Prime has been found at Walmarts in Ontario and Alberta for $69.98.

In terms of market six stores, Winners and Marshals across the country are getting voyager class toys from Titans Return and Power fo the Primes for $15.

so hot rod was 40$ here in canada and now trailer-less prime is 70? seriously?

I get he's the face of the franchise but come on....now if he had the trailer, 70 would be more reasonable but yeah....canada sucks, I should move.

Wow! Only $70?...
No... just no way.
I just bought Blackout which retails the same, there's a lot more going on with that than even the cab for Optimus Prime. I was fine with it being the cab, I was considering getting it, but I guess I'll keep an eye for a sale. Good to hear about Dropkick however.

A trailer-less G1 Optimus should ne 50$CAN at the vert most. Wait long enough and it will be if it was overproduced like Hot Rod.

The price for Optimus Prime without a trailer is a rip-off. It's like they priced him with a trailer but forgot to include the trailer!

Or maybe it's really there, just in subspace storage!

So, these are popping up on ebay now and wondering how to distinguish the genuine Walmart reissues vs the counterfeit ones that seem to look identical. Any way to tell? It's already sold out online and hate to waste time making a trip to Walmart, which I hate, just to find out they're sold out...

Easy, the walmart reissue has no trailer. That never happened before, wven with KOs.
There is no such thing as a mint in box trailerless KO.

They sure took their sweet time getting here, but Canada now has the latest Studio Series deluxe class figures available at big box retailer Walmart. These are Clunker Bumblebee, Sideswipe, Crankcase, WWII Bumblebee and Barricade. The latest Bumblebee movie toys were also found, like Nitro Series Dropkick and Blitzwing and Power Plus Series Soundwave. These were all in a central display which has also been found at US Walmarts. Ratchet, Ironhide and Cliffjumper are still missing at Canadian retail though and nothing past wave 1 for Siege has been found yet. That later part makes sense though since Wave 2 for Siege is expected for April 1st worldwide.

It took a looooooooong time for Canada to catch up to the US for the Studio Series and Siege line but that has changed the past month. Here is a rundown of sightings from the past month:

Studio Series Deluxe wave with Clunker Bee, Sideswipe and Barricade at Walmart
Studio Series Deluxe wave with Scrap Metal and Shatter at Toysrus
Studio Series Voyager wave with Bumblebee Optimus and Rampage at Walmart
Siege Deluxe wave 2 at EB Games
Siege Voyager wave 2 at EB Games

All deluxes are $30 while voyagers are $40.

Walmarts have also been getting the Generations Cyber Battalion Jetfire, Sideswipe, Prowl and Shockwave toys. These are Walmart exclusive in Canada and $20 a piece.

Walmarts have also updated their toy aisle to include an Easter/Spring themed Hasbro display which feature Transformers among their other brands.

Maybe.

I saw the new SS deluxe figures, but no Clunker Bee. Also, no new voyagers either. My Walmart sure may have had everything, but they barely stock so any new things get sold out instantly.

Right now, Amazon.ca is selling the Transformers Cyberverse warrior class figures for $5.88 CAD ($4.41 USD) and the scout class figures for $4.12 CAD (just a little over $3 USD). They were being sold for a similar price on Walmart.ca this past week but now it is just Amazon selling them at this price. Toysrus will price match these prices too. Not sure if they will match with Thundercracker (the ONLY Transformers toy currently skipped by the US) since he is a different SKU number. These toys have proven fun for kids, and that Shockwave is not half bad so at this price it may be worth it for some. Speaking of the Cyberverse warriors, the latest wave with Prowl and Soundwave has been spotted at Canadian Walmarts and should reach Toysrus too.

Animated, RID & Cyberverse all suck! Nobody wants these goofy looking Nickelodeon, Looney Tunes, Spongebob Transformers. The opening scene from the Bumblebee movie is what everybody wants. Someday Hasbro will figure it out. Cyberverse goes straight to clearance because people can see they're over priced Dollar store garbage.

When you have Siege & Studio Series right next to Cyberverse why would any sane person choose Cyberverse? 8-}

Animated was the worst! Even worse than Beast Machines. Peaks & valley's. Animated & Beast Machines were the valley's, the lowest points of the franchise. Now we have RID & Cyberverse. Another low point. Thank God we have Siege & Studio Series to even things out. My Walmart put all the Cyberverse garbage in the clearance section & it still won't sell. Mixing Transformers with Looney Tunes or Spongebob's animation style just doesn't work.

Animated was awesome and Prime was an amazing show. I gave up after RiD's first season and after watching the abomination that was the Machimina Combiner Wars shorts, I gave up entirely on all shows.

For now, all that matter is the toys. Fiction be damned.

I bought some. And here is why (this goes out to all the Canadian lurkers our there). While they are of characters I dont need, I do intend on getting Soundwave and Skybite when they come out. So, since they are all the same number at TRU, I am buying some warriors now and will exchange them for the toys I want later. I wasnt greedy, just bought 3. I dont know how many I will want, even for 5$.

Reminds me of the time the beast hunter deluxes were 5$ in canada, I bought almost all of them (but didnt get Prowl because I am an idiot who was thinking "you dont really need them all do you?" :BANG_HEAD:

)

Oh yeah, that's a bit sneaky, Will. Soundwave does look fun at least. Still, My true Cyberverses wants are for the silly Armor ones that are coming out soon.

First Canada's TRUs are spared, and now THIS?!? Sweet #@&%ing Primus, is it ever frustrating to live just across the river, yet so far away!

So, anyone else getting a second warrior Bee to customize into Cyberverse Glyph? There were enough good sales on Cyberverse last year that I already got my spare, so I'm just one batch of blue dye and a robo-boob-job away!

There, that should make the collective inappropriate comments eclectic enough to get this thread right back on track. Now if only Amazon would start using their Seinfeld names again...

Canada has been getting toys very late this year, compared to the US. EB Games has been the place to get toys first this year but stock is limited, as is the amount of locations, so below I will also be reporting at toys found at bigger retailers.

Cyberverse: Walmart has the latest 1 steps which include Prowl, the new Megatron and Optimus. They also have the new scouts which include Ratchet and Shadow Striker.

Siege: There have been sightings of Galaxy Prime at both Walmart and Toysrus. It is not in Walmart's database though, so buying him has been trickier there. All of Wave 2 has been found at Walmart now including the micromasters, battlemasters, deluxes and voyagers. Though not all provinces have found all these sizes.

Studio Series: While the DOTM Megatron and Jetfire leader figures were available much earlier on at EB Games they finally found their way to Walmart the past few weeks and are getting restocked.

Ectotron: EB Games has this toy in stores for $60 CAD. They are the exclusive retailer for this figure.

It's probably no rush man, it's only just coming out at Canadian retail, and most pre-orders outside Canada aren't even due for 2 more months!

It is good, but for the cash needed, there's more important things right now. Beside, I bet there will be overstock even for him and he will be back on sale anyway. Like Trypticon and Fortmax before him.

It has been a long time since Canada was the first with a sighting. But it is again with the Cyberverse Spark Armor toys. These are slightly taller than legends class figures and have a similar complexity along with a drone vehicle which becomes armor. These are similar to the RID Battlepack figures. The first wave has Prowl, Starscream, Jetfire and Skybyte. They are $19.99 CAD. Another new sighting in Canada is the Series 2 Botbots. Only the 8 packs were spotted so far. While the US has had these in a while, Canada did get the Series 1.5 Bakery Bytes wave between them, which the US skipped. These were all found at Toysrus by yours truly. The Spark Amor toys were in Montreal, Quebec, while the Botbots were found in Brampton, Ontario, (as evidence by the MPM toys on shelves which are not sold in Quebec).

whoe. Those armor guys are tiny — like legends size. That suddenly puts them right back on my list. Sculpts looked like they could have been pretty big. I'm happily surprised.

I guess the big disappointment for me is the Prime with Ark. He looks like he actually IS the size I thought they all were, and with no articulation from the waist down. I'm thinking I will pick up a few small ones and pass on him, since the price will be outlandish.

Grahhhh. I want that Ark! :BANG_HEAD:
