Many Canadians recieved the Toysrus catalogue within the past week or so. While the Transformers are not headliners like last year (since no movie came out this year), they are still represented with some good sales. Several are 20% off. The most important are the two brick and mortar exclusive Siege sets; the Refraktor 3 pack and the Seeker 3 pack which have a spotlight deal for themselves of 20$ off (even though it is still 20% off like the rest). The deals on Transformers (and many other toys) end November 20. Oddly enough, the voyager class is not on sale.
Toysrus is going all out this year for the holiday season. Their Transformers stock is filled to the brim, taking up the entire side of a row. Omega Supreme and other big ticket items are in stock and the entire store is decorated for a festive look. They also have many activities planned until Christmas with the main one being a visit from Santa Clause next week-end (check here to see when Santa comes to your store).

The Rainmakers are also on sale at 80$CAN. An amazing deal for those who want to army-build seekers.
Oh, and I used my Club-R privileges to get refunded the sale difference on the Refraktor set that I bought many weeks ago.

It's mostly in Quebec though. There's still a lot of French speaker in the rest of Canada so even a Quebecois who barely can speak 10 English words can travel across the nation with no problem.

While the Americans had all the fun with their Jetfire deals yesterday, Canada is not exactly empty handed. Right now, Siege Jetfire is $86 on Amazon.ca, which is 33.6% off what Toysrus is selling the toy at right now ($130 CAD). Speaking of Toysrus, a lot of new toys arrived. The most exciting would be Apeface who was found in Ontario. For Botbot enthusiasts, series 3 has finally hit Canada with the 5 packs (I FINALLY got my Rubber Ducky!). The latest (and so far last) wave of Cyberverse warrior toys also hit. This is the one that includes Jetfire and Drift. Also from Cyberversem the two pack of Starscream and Optimus was found at Toysrus. The specific images below come from a Toysrus in Montreal, Quebec.
Also, while it was available on Amazon before, the elusive legion class Cliffjumper from the Bumblebee movie is being found in Toysrus stores as well.

Toysrus Canada really wants to be the destination for fans and parents shopping for toys this season. Not only did they get the big Target exclusives over here but they are the first in Canada to have the final figures from the Siege line such as Apeface and the Micromaster combiners. They now have the first toys from the 2020 Cyberverse line, the new Whirl and Bludgeon One Steps. The image below comes from a Toysrus in the province of Quebec. Those were $14.99 a piece. You can see our own review of Bludgeon here and Whirl here.
Toysrus also has Transformers deals for Black Friday. The major discounts are for last year's Bumblebee line. Those are being discounted 50%. All other Transformers figures are discounted 20%. You can see the ad below.

I forgot my phone at home so I cannot provide a picture.
I found the Cyberverse TRUE deluxes with the buildable figure parts at Toys R Us. They retail at 30$CAN but there's a sale right now that reduce the price to 24$CAN.
They have the first wave, meaning Megs, Optimus, Bee, and Shockwave.

Walmart decided to subvert expectations by doing an ANTI-SALE.
For some reasons, Studio Series voyagers are now 45$ and the leaders are 75$. Plus taxes. Why? Fak-U. That's why.

Obviously.
And yeah, Walmart increased the price of the SS voyagers and leaders by 5$ specifically. All other figures are unaffected. There's also those micro-arcade machine with Game-and-Watch tech were also increased by 5$. Why?
Dunno what's going on with Walmart's toy and video game department, but man, they suck.
Oh, as for G1 Soundwave and his Cassettes, I never, ever saw them in store nor online.

While that final wave of Siege was scheduled for 2019, there was very little of that stock to go around in Canada. Now, in January, Walmart is finally stocking this final wave in decent numbers and it even has its own display area where you can find Transformers Siege Astrotrain, Crosshairs, Apeface and Spinister. That same display stand also has G1 Astrotrain for $70. These are appearing all across the country.
The latest Cyberverse multipacks, which includes the Hot Rod and Sharkticon set and the Quintesson set, were found at Toysrus in Ontaria. The prices are rather high with the Quintesson set being upwards of $40 CAD. This was found by Matrix Holder over at Cybertron.ca.

At Walmart Canada, for some reason the SS voyagers are 45$ instead of 40 and the leaders are 75$ instead of 70$.
Note that the Cyberverse "deluxes" are also 22$ instead of 20$.

It's not just some Transformers. The mini arcade machines are 5$ more expensive than anywhere else. There may be some more that I don't know about who got huge prices hikes recently.
Aren't Walmart supposed to have lower prices than the competition?
This seem totally random.

Well, unless they bring in some more Rung figures, Singe figures, and Ratbat/Frenzy packs? It's a day late and a dollar short. Why are we still getting restocks of the wave 1 Siege Micromasters and Battlemasters even now? Where are the new ones? Did Hasbro just forget to make any? Whoops!

Couldn't take any pictures but one of the 2 Walmarts in Lethbridge Alberta had a lot of Bluestreaks, about 6 pegs with 4 copies of the figure on each one.
There was one Soundblaster (which I bought) and 3 Voyager Cel styled Megatrons, no cel styled Optimus Primes though.
Not sure if this information is helpful to anyone but this hopefully means that the Walmart exclusive Siege stuff is common in Alberta in general, if my "little" town has them I'm sure some of the bigger cities like Calgary or Edmonton do.

A non-sighting.
Winners and Marshall only had one-steps and "ultra" Bumblebee movie figures recently.
Now not only they have nothing, but both even reduced the size of their toys section.
One more source of toys going away...

Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronian Kanrabat, we have news that the Canadian branch of Toys R Us is planning to close its doors for the next 2 weeks to help combat the Coronavirus outbreak.
This news comes from a letter sent out by Toys R Us themselves, stating that the closing of the stores is to help prevent the spread of the virus, and that it is only temporary. At this point in time, they plan to reopen their doors on March 30.
You can read the quoted letter below, and let us know your thoughts in the comments section below. And make sure to social distance yourself and stay safe and stay healthy.

In my neck of the woods. Everything is pretty much closed. Malls, Beaches, Cinemas, Bars, Restaurants, Most small businesses. Any grocery stores or retail stores like Target, Wal-Mart, Costco, BJ's are mad houses. I have a household of 6 members, and only 1 goes out for necessities, everyone else is just staying home.

Canadians thought the day would never come. But it's here, Transformers Generations Selects War for Cybertron Red Wing is available for order at Toysrus.ca. And better yet, it is 10% off as part of their "stay at home play" event, which applies to any regularly priced toys. this makes Red Wing $35.99 CAD. this is an online exclusive.

They are also liquidating Siege Jetfire at $49.87 CAD (about $35 USD).

Regarding Canadian sightings, every class size of Earthrise wave 1 was either found at Walmart or toysrus this past month. The latest Cyberverse Energon Armor class toys were also found at toysrus.

Studio Series deluxes are at 20$ at Walmart.
However the voyagers are still 45$ for reasons.

NOTE: These will not ship to the United States!
I can't even put in my address on the account I created to buy Jazz.

Apparently there is a bug with the website or something, I can't add anything into my cart, adding anything just shows the cart as empty and the only price is the shipping on the screen.
Did a little research and apparently other fans on other sites are also having this problem.
Certainly not my browser or account since I used Chrome/Firefox/Microsoft Edge and all the same result.
This sucks

Yeah I can't order anything, Transformer or not it just says "0 items" in my cart when I click on add to cart.
Just guess I got to wait or something.
Can anyone else here see if the add to cart button is broken for them as well?
Before anyone asks it does say in stock

You know what there is to be upset over?
Being unable to buy Red Wing due to a site bug and just checking online to see him out of stock.
Yay
Best news is that I still can't add things to my cart.

At this point it almost as if TrU is trolling.
Siege Jetfire and MPM Jazz are out of stock, obviously.
But then Red Guard is entirely REMOVED from the site.
Hmmmmm…

Helloooooooooo?
Any Canadians out there?
.....
Anyway, TrU have MPM Ironhide on sale at only 63$ CAN.
https://www.toysrus.ca/en/Transformers- ... D6A6A.html
However as usual, Quebec get the shaft because we are treated like a filthy foreign country.
At least Amazon have it too for the same price and Quebec is allowed to get it.

Well, here's a sighting that's worth mentioning.
Any Canadian who were asleep at the wheel for too long before committing to Siege Omega Supreme, now's your (maybe final) chance. Available online at Walmart.ca for 200$CAN instead of the normal 250$CAN.
https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/transforme ... 0200181456
I missed the small TrU preorder window way back then at 160$ and I missed a few 200$ sales. No way am I missing this one, thanks to surprise TPS money from the Federal.
