Thanks to Kremzeek Reviews, we have a new image of the upcoming deluxe Barricade from the third wave of Walmart exclusive Transformers Netflix products. This is the toy in a sparkless deco, which are the zombies in the first season. We are supposed to get this deco for the seeker mold and lambo mold as well for you to build a whole army of sparkless bots. This is the third image we have of this toy, meaning a few got their hands on it.

Read that title too fast as “sparkles barricade” and my first thought was “ is this from the my little pony cross over?”

This guy looks cool, but these stupid Walmart exclusives are killing me. It's bad enough to have to go to Walmart to find something, but the local ones are hardly ever stocked with anything, let alone the exclusives. I've never bothered trying their website, because all I've heard is horror stories about them cancelling orders willy-nilly. Feels like eBay scalpers are my only option, which... you know, scalpers.

If anyone is fretting not getting a Netflix BB, don't worry, it appears more are on the way. I stopped at a local walmart this afternoon, and they must have just put out 2 cases, because there were 4 BB's and 4 Elita's, and 2 of all the others. Not sure if walmart online is doing any better (For the record I still haven't seen a Soundwave yet, but he's thankfully not on my want list). But as was said above, no need to give in to scalpers.

I agree with you on this, but on the other hand I see the ER Ironhide/Prowl two-pack on sale at TFSource for $150 and wonder what separates scalpers from some of the retailers out there.

I honestly feel there is a chance of a re-release next year maybe for Netflix Bee and Soundwave. They were clearly meant to be mainline, and with them being a Walmart exclusive during a pandemic, I'm sure scalpers got their unfair share. Hasbro has recently done second runs of a number of figures that were hard to get or still have demand and outrageous eBay prices. It wouldn't surprise me to see them again next year offered online. That is just a tough leap of faith to make if you haven't gotten one.

I already got Netflix Bumblebee (and all of the Wave 2 Deluxes) without much issue. Saw them all multiple times in store leading up to Xmas. What has been scarce is the Wave 2 Voyager sets. I think half of the Walmarts in my area got one or two cases each, which is 2x Soundwave and 2x Optimus Prime. Never found Soundwave, but managed to get an Optimus Prime before they were all gone in a matter of days.

I decided to shell out for BB and Soundwave with BB coming in today.
I'm tired of hunting these figures out. At first I wasn't going to get Bumblebee as I'm a huge fan of the original Classics figure and not really into BB himself. But, given his place in the franchise, and the fact that this is an official VW figure too and that he'd probably be really pricy to get later on I figured "why not?" Plus I got Botcon Bugbite last year so that mold still has a place in my collection in that form.
Glad I did. He's a nice, tidy, TF. I didn't pick up Cliffy since I am not down for replacing the GDO figure I still like, so this is my only experience with the mold. And it's not bad. It's a shame about the partsforming, but the overall look sells me on it despite that.
Wish I found him in person, but them's the breaks sometimes.

Completely understand...
It's relatively frustrating when there seems to be nothing (or at least what you're specifically looking for) in-stores for months. I'm going to probably end up asking in the Buy, Sell, Trade forum if someone can get BB for me...
Out of the entire Netflix line, BB is one of the only ones I REALLY want (honestly other than Soundwave)... I bought Prime because I liked the paint apps and the blue inner lower legs. *Also because I never saw ER Prime in a store. Hotlink was the one Cybertron seeker mold I wanted, also because of the overall color scheme and just being different.
And both were bought a bit in response to the fact that I couldn't find other figures (from ER) that I wanted.
However, I'm not willing to pay way over $20 for a really small deluxe... So we'll see.

It's a shame to, because I really want to help, especially when I saw 4 BB's just a couple of days ago. Unfortunately just to ship, even inexpensively is nearly $10 (plus materials etc...)in the US for a deluxe (removing it from the packaging and making it smaller helps some but...) . If I were on the other end, I don't really like the idea of paying $30 for a deluxe that should be readily available, so I can't imagine too many others would either.

Yeah he is very small. The classics Bee looks "Beezeemuzz Prime" in comparison.
I'm of two minds about it. In the cartoon the bot mode should be that small. But I feel that the vehicle mode is way too small and that Classics Bee actually scales better next to other TFs. I have the iGear "minibots" to fill out most of them so most of them are deluze class for me.
But the small bee really is a slick TF once you get past the partsforming.

For those who watched the first season of Netflix's Transformers series, do you remember a part where the autobots go to the Sea of Rust and are attacked by a sparkless (aka zombie) Decepticon that looks like Barricade? Well if not, then we have an image to serve as a refresher below so that you can see what this new toy is referring to. Kremzeek reviews has a video review up for this sparkless Barricade toy. It is part of the Walmart exclusive third wave of Netflix deluxe figures. There should be more sparkless themed figures coming, though we have yet to see them.

I like it better this way. Rusted painted metal doesn't just turn to a rust color, it fades, cracks, and peals. The multi color faded look seems more realistic to me, like it degraded in different ways.
I find the molding intriguing. Just looking at the arms, Prowl and Smokescreen have shoulders and forearms that are the same color, the rest of the arms are black. Barricade's shoulders are black, but the rest of the arm is lavender. Bluestreak has dark gray shoulders and forearms, red biceps, and light gray fists. Then Sparkless here has shoulders and forearms the same color and biceps and fist the same color. What the heck is the parts layout on this mold?

Transformers Netflix Cheetor is such an odd release since the differences with the mainline Kingdom version is rather minimal as you can see below and it has even less paint apps. The best part is the more metallic and deeper blue but it is less abundant than the power blue found on the mainline version. Aside from that, the yellow plastic seems more golden on the Netflix version. This figure is part of the third wave of deluxe Transformers Netflix figures which also includes a Siege Ironhide redeco (into a Quintesson troop builder), a rusty Barricade, and an alleged rusty Deep Cover. These should be out by summer 2021. The images below were sent to us from a source which wished to remain anonymous.

The changes might be minimal with fewer paint apps, but that metallic blue really brings out his face and the lack of blue on his legs allows the robot legs to blend with his cheetah form better. I’d say the changes are a plus, especially since I don’t have him yet.

I’ve been to Walmart way more times than I would normally go hunting for bee. I definitely haven’t seen well stocked shelves, though there have been the occasional Netflix figures, with Elita being the most common for a bit. I think I saw OP once, but he is available online for the same price at least. Seems even when Bee drops to OPs price he gets sold out really quick online.

My friend want a ER Optimus but he don't want to pay for that cheap-ass trailer. So his best option is the Netflix one.
No way of knowing in Quebec since Walmarts have their toy sections cut off due to government regulation. But I did get mine before the lockdown, yes, so they were around.
Lockdowns or not, my local Walmart never, ever bothered having any Netflix figures in stock.

Unless these figures come with some cool pack-in, I ain't buying another Cheetor. Everyone collects differently so to those who prefer the more show accurate colors I am glad you have an option, but the Kingdom release is good enough for me. Now if they pull an Elita-1 or Bumblebee and put a figure in the Netflix box which ain't in a Kingdom box then I'm all over that, but I can't think of a single figure they could do that with in Kingdom/Wave 3.

I'm really disappointed Cheetor doesn't come with his gut gun. I don't even care if it stored by plugging in on a side port or something. He should have had it.

Plot twist: Cheetor changes his colors in WFC part 3 for this very reason.

Is there anyway possible to get Netflix toys outside the U.S.?
I mean, whenever they say "walmart exclusive" I can kiss them goodbay basically... that or pay scalper prices on e-bay...

Just a heads up, if anyone is still looking to get Nemesis, he's in stock on BBTS for a reasonable $60. Ordered mine yesterday. Best price for him that I've seen. Never saw him show up in store so I'm pretty excited.

They've done this often over the years. Back in the day, people would wait until the end of the line to pick up the figures they wanted, in the colors and style they wanted.

I do like the look of the sparkless figure... I think the rust/decaying paint apps look really well done. And it doesn't bother me at all the the limbs are plain; they are toned-down enough in color that it all works visually. I personally wish it were the ER datsun mold... But this is the kind of "different" figure that appeals to me.
I've liked a lot of the SG figures, and regret not collecting at least a few of those.
Considering I don't have this Siege mold, I'll think about getting him.
Then I also realize I don't know how it really fits into my collection or especially a display set-up.

I'm really annoyed at how bad Walmart is at stocking the Netflix transformers and transformers in general. Would it make a difference if everyone here collaborated in emailing Hasbro customer service to complain about Walmarts bad stocking? I hate trying to buy Netflix Bumblebee and Walmart.com sells it just as expensive as a reseller and the physical store shelves are empty. I would like to see what Hasbro would do if we all asked them to fix this.

I don't think it would matter to hasbro, they've already had the sale to walmart. I preoredered three things from three different lines on the first day they were available to preorder and have had them all cancelled, that's on hasbro more than the retailer:(

I feel your pain. I still can't find Netflix Soundwave. I was close a few times before Xmas, only finding a stray Netflix Optimus Prime left in the wake, and now there has been NOTHING for the whole month of January at Walmart as far as Netflix figures.
It's entirely Walmart's fault, by the way, that pre-orders are cancelled. Hasbro simply sells them an allotment of toys, and then Hasbro is done with the transaction. Walmart then has to handle the logistics of setting aside so many for pre-order and then distributing the rest to their warehouses and then to individual stores. Walmart's inventory infrastructure is hot, wet garbage that is continually on fire and kicking puppies. What irks me is that retailers come to Hasbro asking/begging for exclusives, and then Hasbro obliges, and then the retailers, particularly Walmart, screw it up time and again.

I got Soundwave today, he's a lot of fun, and one of the best looking Soundwave toys I've ever handled. Laserbeak is the better of the two cassettes, Ravage's jaguar mode doesn't really do it for me. It's also a shame that the Siege Ratbat mould doesn't fit into Soundwave's chest window very well. It's because of this that I don't know what to do with Ratbat and Wingthing on my Decepticon shelf now, the cassettes don't fit in Soundwave, and the bats don't balance on Soundwave's (or anyone else's) shoulders all too well. I may try getting a couple of poseable display stands for Ratbat and Wingthing to look like they're flying.
