Black Friday never has sales on standard figures. Its usually higher ticket items or store exclusives and stuff like that. Last year, the only deal at walmart was for those platinum seekers.

We had reported a while back that all of Wave 1 and 2 Titans Return toys were sold out at Hasbro, meaning they were all bought by the retailers, but where was all that product? Well it was probably in their respective warehouses with retailers waiting for a massive restock for the holiday season, which is exactly the case with Toysrus Canada. As can be seen in the images below, the Wave 2 deluxes are now on the shelves, along with the latest Robots in Disguise Mini-con Weaponizers and Warriors. The Wave 2 deluxes are also popping up all over Walmarts in the US, showing that the line is slowly starting to saturate across both countries. This just shows that there is a substantial gap between product being sent to retailer warehouses and them being stocked on the shelves. Here is hoping all you fans find the toys you want this holiday season!













Thanks to user Gunslinger from cybertron.ca for some of the images above.

thats a lot of deluxes. you could also add that the voyagers are out in the us

Seriously wtf! I live in Pennsylvania and have 2 walmarts within 15 min of me (Lebanon and Palmyra) and they have at max 3 pegs for titans return figures......which are never in stock! Such a headache.

All other TRUs should be ashamed of themselves, i should go over to my local store and shoe them these pictures. Let them see what a real TRU is suppose to look like

But they were already out for a while, they just hadn't reached everywhere yet (and still havent really). People were more scared about the deluxes. And anyways, its the general restock. If someone can send me a pic of what I posted but in a US store, I would be more than happy to make a seperate article talking about a US restock in the TR thread.

My local TRU has condensed their transformers section to a 2x3 section on a island with power Rangers and DC and 4 other groups

I concur, that's just insane. In US TRUs you're lucky if you find 6 pegs of partly stocked deluxes. But 18 pegs of deluxes that's just

I usually buy online but, 19.99 for a warrior/deluxe? Seems like a bit much to me. Aren't they usually 16-18$ in stores?

That or this is a different metro area. I know for a fact that TRU in the city of Seattle has higher costs for things than the TRU's in surrounding areas. (Same thing with Target and Walmart)

Canadian prices are higher then the US due to exchange rates.

It's nothing compared to prices in Europe.

I wish prices were adjusted for exchange rate here...

Of course but I meant just as a comparison to the States alone.


Also would the Walgreen's Brainstorm show up anywhere here in Canada or do I have to go to the states?

Thanks for letting me know saves me the trouble for later.

Yeah, in Philly it's the same way though they did have wave 2 deluxes at Walgreens for over a month now but for $20.

Since Walmart is just finally getting wave 2 figures in I'm glad I PO'd wave 3 of the legends class figures due out this month. The other wave 3 classes wont likely see retail until 2/2017 which I'm in no real rush for anyway (except for maybe Sixshot)

I am so surprised that the Platinum RID Grimlock and RID set is now sold out at walmart.ca

As a fellow PA-er, I feel ya. barely any Transformers to be found, and still not up to date.

I was just in Philly (and just got back), but I didn't see a single Wave 2 deluxe. Only saw wave 1 stuff, and I went to a few Walgreen's, and a TRU

You can tell this isn't America because of how much shelf space they take up, the product is well-stocked, and everything is in the right place. No hanging packages sitting messily on the shelf.... in the wrong section, no RID Minicons and Gen Legends on the same rack (bonus points if it's not EITHER of their racks)

I've had like no luck at TJ Rossalls stores, but I think asking someone in Canadia to ship me a Sky Lynx would wind up pretty expensive after import fees. Sigh.

Just be patient I found some wave 2 deluxes in Walmart outside of Hamburg today (only 2 left from the case), but once I find them their, I usually start seeing then around at the bigger cities.

I grabbed Wolfwire and Mindwipe from a Walgreen's on 2727 Cheltenham ave a couple weeks ago (only because I had a coupon for 25% off). I grabbed the last Chromedome from a Super Walmart in Horsham PA for $9.88 last Weds. And ordered Brainstorm of Walgreen's website since finding them in stores is impossible.

Can you guys please post your local findings in your respective sightings threads? toy-sightings-and-local-meetups-f57.php

This thread is about Canadian sightings.

I apologize, I was just being reassuring to a fellow fan while ogling a fully stocked transformers section. Things like this are what make me afraid to post.

Hey don't worry he is not saying your in trouble he is just saying that it's probably a better idea to post in the other sighting threads since this one is a bout Canadian sightings.


Most of us are all friendly on this site so nothing to worry about.

OH MY! That is a wet dream of a restock/shelf facing
