Also, deluxe limbs are back in stock online at the 11.99$ price. They have 2 mirage listings for some reason:

This wave includes:
TRA GEN LEGENDS BOMBSHELL
TRA GEN LEGENDS WARPATH
TRA GEN LEGENDS SHOCKWAVE
TRA GEN LEGENDS WRECKGAR
These were found at Toysrus in Montreal and are priced at $ 7.99 Cdn ($6.29 USD). What is a bit worrisome about this is that it means we are getting this wave before wave 5 which had Buzzsaw, Pipes and Chop Shop along with Shockwave.
Hopefully this does not mean that Toysrus or Canada is skipping that wave.

Also, wave 5 came out in late April. It had a TINY run, but it was here. One guy picked up a set at the Victoria Park TRU when it did. There were a few more sightings into early May and then it died off. That's when Wave 6 started to sprout up.
Your news is nearly two months behind!

Crazy that we finished this line, right down to Wreck-Gar yet we got the shaft on the tail end of 2014/2015 Generations.

I was writing this because I didnt see it here, no one had posted it. It would have been nice to let fans know that it was found, instead of remarking that its old news to those who did post it. I just wanted to give you all a heads up in case others were wondering

Thanks for that I would have liked to see Pipes and Buzzsaw online, hopefully they will come back.

Well, I AM taking offence, dear The7thParallel. Because I never ever saw it in stores in Laval or Montréal. No Walmarts, no TrU, no nothing. Especially Walmart, barren of any TFs since weeks (if not, months).
So I'm going to puch you through the internet.

Calm down Jaki. The Dragonzord might be your favorite, but you basically don't care about MMPR aside from that. And this is pretty much just the Dragonzord you already have, minus the green.
Posted by william-james88 on June 9th, 2016 @ 3:47pm CDT
I was looking at the falconzord the other day and wondering why it was so expensive. It doesnt even do that much. Sure, I would love to own it if money was not an issue but it is. They look great though, I wont deny that and its cool that they are all available to us locally: http://www.toysrus.ca/search/index.jsp? ... 795&y=-171

I'm 99% sure everyone has seen this stuff before since it' been out there for a while now, but I thought I'd post it again since these are hitting stores shortly.
Legends Class - $12.99 (SKU#789658)
Deluxe Class - $19.99 (SKU#789661)
Voyager Class - $29.99 (SKU#789663)
Leader Class - $59.99 (SKU#789666)
Titan Class - $229.99 (SKU#789669)
Computron Gift Set - $149.95 (SKU#789634)
I checked with a friend at my local TRU and had them run the SKU in their computer (the green and back screen, not the web browser one) and it shows most of them shipping around the 25th, with the exception of Computron because I forgot to check.
Obviously mileage will vary by store and location. But, if you have someone you can chat with at your local TRU run have them run those SKU numbers and it might just give you a time line that you can use to build a plan of attack! ha ha.
I should specify that they said it could show up as early as the 25th or even the first week of July. Like I said, mileage may vary but I hope this helps with the hunt!
(I'm really only looking for Wheelie and Rewind. The rest are Takara releases for me.)

This is the first time I see this and I am very grateful, Blurrz was right, you are a god
If ever you have a chance can you, or anyone else here who works at TRU or has ties to employees, let us know what the SKU for the Titan Master Class is too? Hasbro has a few figures and decos that Takara wont be releasing in that class, like Apeface.
Thanks again!
PS: Wow, that is very pricey for the Titan Class but glad to know the voyager price point remains intact even after Walmart had it at 35$.

Oh glad to hear about the sky reign limbs, I have yet to see some in quebec. Glad to know they are on their way

Keep in mind I *haven't* seen them at Anjou. I was told them were there. Don't want you to be dissapointed if they aren't lol. I do plan on going there later today or tomorrow and find out though.

Let me know, I am going monday. Oh and let me know if you spot that battle minicon 2 pack with grimlock. For some reason none of us have found it yet (unless it was found and not reported). I dont know if it has been found anywhere in canada.

In the Combiner Wars, teams of Autobots and Decepticons combine to form giant super robots and battle with the fate of worlds in the balance. The Decepticon Combiner Bruticus has immense physical power. He may not be the smartest bot, but his overwhelming strength and indestructible armor are more than enough to make him a nightmare in battle.
Join the battle and build a Combiner super robot with this Combiner Wars Bruticus Collection Pack! Get 6 Combaticons figures that combine to form a Bruticus Combiner figure in this 1 set. The Voyager Class Onslaught figure forms the torso of the Bruticus Combiner figure; the Deluxe Class Decepticon Blast Off, Decepticon Vortex, Swindle, and Brawl figures form the arms and legs; and the Legends Class Shockwave figure becomes a Combiner weapon.
The Combiner Wars universal connection system means these figures work with other Combiner Wars figures! Combine the Onslaught figure with other Deluxe Class Combiner Wars figures or combine the Decepticon Blast Off, Decepticon Vortex, Swindle, and Brawl figures with other Combiner Wars Voyager Class figures to build more Combiner super robot figures! (Additional figures are each sold separately.) The pack also includes 10 accessories, a Combiner Wars poster, and a collectible Bruticus character card.
Transformers and all related characters are trademarks of Hasbro.
• Combiner Wars Bruticus Pack includes 6 Combaticons figures
• Figures combine to build a Bruticus figure
• Each figure converts from robot mode to vehicle mode and back
• Figures work with other Combiner Wars figures (each sold separately)
• Comes with a poster and collector card

Found both Crazybolt and Overload at Marshall's near Eglinton and Pharmacy in Toronto. They were $14.99 each. Fresh off the cart as well and three of the CBs went in the 15 minutes I was there!

About Titans Return, I have been calling and it seems none of the local trus are reporting these toys hitting our shores yet. While they are in the system, they appear as discontinuied, which dimply means that there is 0 reported stock anywhere in canada. I guess we will get them in july then. I will call again next week.

From my own personal experiences, calling in has always been hit or miss. More miss than anything really. ha ha. I was at my local TRU and they see shipments in twice this week. Won't really know what's on the truck until it's unloaded. So it's a bit of a waiting game.
Anywho, TR Legends Ravage and Frumble are online for pre-order. Odd that it's wave two...
EDIT: oh, and it shows an estimated shipping date of 08/16. That makes sense if wave one comes out late June/early July.

Wow, I am really surprised that they are keeping that price. That is amazing news. My only problem with this is that unless I buy 7 of them, thre wont be a way to get free shipping.

You wont be getting any? At that price, I am tempted, just to have som variety in my "casette bots". I feel like preordering 7 all together (to get free shipping) and then bringing back all except for one of each. Doe that make me a bad person?
What I find fascinating is that these are different from the prices you wrote above. You think the price will increase once they are released?

They are very underwhelming in person. I love Ravage, but I've already got MP Ravage and MMC Jaguar. Those are perfect for me.
I see now that the listings were pulled. Might have just been a test for new product. I think the prices will be higher once they are out, but I'm personally hoping they stay $8.00. It's too bad, if I'm not mistaken, those were the first wave 2 pre-orders for those two anywhere.
Posted by william-james88 on June 27th, 2016 @ 5:18pm CDT
But it sold pretty well, there are only 8 left in stock. I guess people are willing to pay afterall.
