Greetings Seibertronians! Razorbeast88 have pointed us out that Chefatron have posted the video review of the Jurassic Park X-Over set Tyrannocon Rex & Autobot JP93. The set is an hommage to the classic 1993 movie. Tyrannocon is a repaint of Kingdom Leader Beast Megatron with a new head while Autobot JP93 is a completely brand new mold. Most of the budget of this set seems to have been for the altmodes that are beautifully painted with lots of details. The Tyrannocon bot mode seems to be - Read More

That fourth wave of deluxes from the Kingdom line is coming in hot.

Both Shadow Panther and Waspinator can be ordered for $34.99 CAD. This further confirms something that was becoming more and more apparent, the Kingdom wave 4 case assortment has changed from what we reported almost a year ago. Slammer and - Read More

That was quick, seems like Draculus, who was revealed today, is already being distributed and has been found in a brock and mortar location. This was at a collectibles store in Quebec called Collection Mania. Draculus was $66 CAD but the fan who purchased it was told the MSRP was $69.99, which has been the case with these Crossover figures in Canada. That same store also had the SS86 Sweeps and Selects Galvatron. This means Draculus is already being distributed to retailers, making the fact - Read More

Our sponsor sites have images of the latest offering from the Diaclone line, Diaclone DA-85 Powered Greater.

This is actually some pretty good news to many who dislike exclusivity and find it an extra hassel to find certain figures. Takara has several news listings, where some figures are exclusive to TTMall while others are not. And what is super fun about this is that it is revealed that both Red Alert and the Deseeus Army Drone (that Siege Ironhide redeco) are not exclusives. Meaning that both figures which are exclusive in the West (at varying locations depending on your country) will be available - Read More

Did any of you opt for the Walmart preorders for the retro Beast Wars figures? I know that preorders at big box stores have been hit or miss but it seems to be a hit here this time.

They have yet to appear in Walmart stores, but should be doing so - Read More

Do you remember the Transformers Cyber Battalion toys? They were simpler figures of popular Transformers characters made available at stores that don't have big toy sections, like Walgreens, which parents could pick up as a cheaper alternative. Their biggest difference to mainline figures was the lack of some articulation points and the weight of the figure compares to others of the same height from different lines. You were basically getting the same amount of plastic as a deluxe, but - Read More

While the Transformers Generations Selects line is not exclusive for the most part, it is still tricky to find. Toysrus usually does stock them but it is not consistent and there is a bug in their system where if an order is not filled after a certain amount of time, the order will be cancelled automatically. This lead to cancellations of all preorders for G2 Ramjet in Canada from Toysrus and the store is currently doing a workaround where they will call people who preordered when the product - Read More
