Metrotown Zellers has a lot of Streetway shootout legends sets and a few The Fallen on Fire figs.

Has anyone seen the MP Skywarp at Walmart around Toronto as yet? He was out on the wet coast weeks ago.

You should have come down to Maple Ridge, then. Haney Place Zellers has had him (and Gears and Ejector) for weeks. Well, Ejector just showed up, but they've had the others for a while.

Oh well, Maple Ridge is pretty far for me, so I didn't mind spending an extra $5. I guess I'm done buying TFs until Long Haul finally comes out, or TRU offers something better than $10 off Leaders.

Went to Metro again over the weekend, but didn't see anything new at TRU or Metropolis. Didn't bother checking Zellers again. Same for Lansdowne, TRU had the same old stuff and I didn't go to Zellers, although there were some Jetfires at TRU.

Looking to pick up a Jetfire. How much were they?

Regular price, $59.99 I believe. If you have access to Costco I suggest going there instead, last time I was there (3 weeks ago) they had a bunch for $10 less.

Cheers buddy with the MP Skywarp. You know of Kool Toyz I assume?

Apparently, Long Haul and Grindor are out in Canada now. Not at Lougheed Mall Wal-Mart, they aren't.

News Credits: 32 · Sat Nov 28, 2009 10:44 pm

Not at my WalMart either. They had nothing. Absolutely nothing. They didn't even have an end display for them.

News Credits: 11 · Sat Nov 28, 2009 11:37 pm

Dang, really? I also heard ROTF Voyagers are $15 at both TRUs & Walmarts, possibly for this weekend only.

I know. Well, I know now, but I didn't at the time. I think the fact that the only Voyagers they had were Ratchet, Demolishor, Mixmaster and the odd Stratosphere contributed to my lack of interest.

And I think it's only @ Wal-Mart, not TRU.

I think someone posted on Cybertron.ca that it was both, but I didn't see it myself, and the weekend's over anyway. Too bad Long Haul didn't show up over here.

News Credits: 9 · Mon Nov 30, 2009 12:29 pm

It was at TRU, but the selection was crap. at least at Metro and Surrey.

News Credits: 23 · Mon Nov 30, 2009 1:45 pm

Nothing new/worth mentioning on the South Shore of Montreal. Well, nothing Transformers-related, at least.

Did you find the TRU troop builder 5-packs?

Nope. There any French on that package? If not, I won't see it 'round these parts.

News Credits: 9 · Mon Nov 30, 2009 4:06 pm

Shoot, no I don't think there were, and the pack didn't have the multi language bio cards either. dang.

Regardless, they are normally $35, but right now they should be $25. Hopefully you can get your hands on them if you were looking for them.

Picked up what was possibly the last Long Haul at the Square One Walmart. While I was in line I saw a couple of older ladies with at least 2 more in their carts (could have been more, there were 4 Voyageurs in there total), so it looks like he'll be a pretty popular item this Christmas.

Long Haul & Grindor have been sighted at Metro TRU. They'll probably be gone by the time I get there tonight, but I thought I'd give you guys a fighting chance. Good to know they're showing up on the West Coast at least.

Only Grindors there now. Passed on him for now. I do want to get him, but my monies are needed elsewhere. (Besides, as a straight repaint of Blackout, I'm really debating whether or not I should bother getting him at all.)

Also, to any of you who picked up the Long Hauls, I don't know whether to thank you...or be very very cheesed off.

News Credits: 11 · Sun Dec 06, 2009 10:53 pm

Sorry, I think I got the last Long Haul that evening. :mrgreen:

He's pretty great, you should definitely get him when he shows up again. I'm sure they'll start showing up more, Bowmac TRU hasn't gotten them yet so they're due to show up any time now.

I wouldn't bother with Grindor unless you're going for completion or see him on clearance. I've already got Blackout and thus am not interested in him.

I went to Bellingham over the weekend, and noticed Target has ROTF leaders for $35. I figured that was finally low enough, so I bought Prime. Awesome figure.

Sorry for the double post, but Long Haul has been sighted at Lansdowne TRU.

Edit: Also Lougheed Walmart & Coquitlam TRU as of this morning (Wednesday December 9th). You may need to check on top of the shelves.

Did. And found one Long Haul. Lots of both he and Grindor there.

ROTF Bludgeon and Recon Ironhide were sighted today at Metropolis Comics & Toys! I was just there yesterday too, bad timing, dammit. No chance I can get there tonight, hopefully one of you guys can get them if you're willing to pay extra. I guess this means they should be hitting US retailers soon as well. I wish they'd come to regular retail up here soon, Bludgeon sure would make a nice Christmas present...for myself. :mrgreen:

3 or 4 Long Hauls at Lougheed Walmart too.
