Sorry for triple posting now, but in case anybody in the Lower Mainland is still looking, there were 9 MP Grimlocks reported at Bowmac TRU two hours ago.

Wave 2 HFTD has arrived @ Metrotown TRU. Most likely has at Coquitlam TRU, too.

They were sighted at Bowmac too, but I have no idea if there's any left.

Anybody seen Darkmount in Quebec? Best if on the island of Montreal or within the STM public transit system.

I called Metropolis today and asked if they got Wave 3 Generations yesterday. They did...and sadly, they sold out of Soundwave already.

This is the third time this has happened. I'm honestly getting frustrated about this.

Maybe ask if they will reserve one for you next time? I know they are doing preorders on their website now, with free in-store pickup. Not sure if Generations are listed though.

I would...if I was convinced that it wouldn't show up closer to home.

Just came back from the Wal-Mart "Superstore" in Aurora, Ont. They have Generations figures (waves 1 and 2?) priced at under $10. I just picked up WFC Prime, Megatron, and Bumblebee. As well as Darkmount.

Anybody know if this is a Canada wide thing or if it is just an Ontario wal-mart thing? Cuz I NEED Darkmount and under 10$ is flucking amazing pricing!

What I've read at other forums, it is Canada-wide, but not at every Wal-Mart.

I didn't think anyone was checking, and I didn't want to be triple and quadruple posting...

I lurk, therefor I live.

Honestly however with my new job out of the way from stores heading home, unless i backtrack or take an extra minihike i don't get to stores fast enough to report anything.

Well! I have a few sightings, for those in the Vancouver area who are interested.

Bowmac (Broadway) TRU is stacked to the ROOF with Wave 1-3 Deluxes, but last I saw there was only 1 WFC Soundwave left, and Tomahawk & Terradive appeared in huge numbers only to disappear again after a couple days. They also had a short sighting of Highbrow & The Fallen, which sold out quickly, BUT I have The Fallen, which I'm willing to trade to any local collectors who might come across an extra Highbrow. Otherwise I'll just exchange him when I actually come across a Highbrow.

Lansdowne TRU also had the new Voyagers but I don't know if there are any left.

Metro TRU is a bit lacking, they had Terradive & Tomahawk but I don't know if they still do. Zellers has a bunch of Deluxe Rescue Ratchets.

Highbrow & Fallen were spotted at Surrey Zellers and Langley TRU, I believe.

North Van Walmart has Sunspot & Firetrap.

Metropolis Comics & Toys has Blurr & Dirge, as well as a pretty extensive collection of loose Classics & Universe in the case.

That's all for now!

Thanks for the post. Hope it gets others posting. I have been looking for WFC Soundwave forever to no avail in the Toronto area.

Montreal's Alexhis Nihon Zellers had WFC Soundwave and Darkmount, but I nabbed the last two. There remain a truckload of Red Alerts and WFC Bees.

Red Alert? Wicked! Alexis Nihon zellers has had a shitload of Bees forever, they refuse to go away.

Metropolis Comics & Toys had 1 Red Alert and 1 Soundwave if anyone's still looking in Vancouver. 1 Blue Fallen at Metro TRU as well...after I grabbed the last Highbrow. :-s

After opening him up, I would just like to quickly state that a picture of Generations Darkmount - AKA Straxus - should by law be required to appear in all dictionaries under the word "Badass".

Well, kitchener TRU has up to wave 3 of both HftD and Gen (no Soundwaves). There are tons there so feel free to buy some (there are hundreds of deluxes there, I fear it may be a long time before any new stock). My walmart has also had up to wave 3 of both lines as well. Though at the moment there is an overload of Terradives and Straxxus. Starnge thing is, just before the holidays I spotted a single Thunderwing, but haven't seen another since or even the rest of the wave. Hope they get a move on soon though. The new sets are looking great and I can't afford to keep buying them online anymore

Not much new in BC right now, though if you check Superstore you might get lucky and find a Windcharger for $12.99. I got mine at Marine Drive Superstore today but didn't see any others. There were a couple Chopsaws and some of the previous wave scouts as well. Also PCC Wave 2 if anyone is collecting those.

Most stores have really empty shelves or old stuff right now, we're all just hoping for a big restock soon.
