Gotta love it when products do not scan at the cash. You can really get away with murder especially when you have the weekend or part-time staff behind the counter. They don't know their hand from their foot!

By any chance, did they have Classics Starscream?

I'm not sure. They might, as they had/have a lot of Deluxes that weren't moving (like the Autobot cars). If you can't find The `Scream at the TRU, check out The Bay and the Sears in the Champlain Mall. It's just a minute of walking from the TRU!

Finally found me a Classics Ramjet, woohoo! There was one more at the TRU at Yonge/Eglinton, Toronto. I was so tempted to get them both. There was also a Cliffjumper.

Picked up Leader Megs on Saturday at Walmart. They also had a few Voyager Megs, no sign of Voyager OP though.

I must say, I've had quite a run of good luck with finding stuff relatively early

*snif* We've been moved.

lol, anyway... cool to hear that '08 BB is out in Coquitlam, I wonder if they're here in Burnaby or Van yet...and if any are left.

I wish I could find a Classics Starscream somewhere, he's the only one I still need.

I always overlooked the classics line, but now I want to get on board.

Way too late I know.

I'm seeking bumblebee and rodimus, and chance of finding these guys in the lower mainland?

Or Vancouver island?

Montreal: The Zellers in Place Alexis Nihon has become the first place I've seen Arcee and Dreadwing at. I've picked up the former - don't care for lensheads, so I'll leave Dreadwing. If '08 Bumblebee was ever there, he was sold over the weekend (If only I hadn't been working!) - there were quite a few big spaces on the racks, so I'm guessing that was in fact the case.

I checked in at the Wal-Mart on Decarie. Plenty of Voyager Megs, Ratchet, Starscream and Ironhide, but little to nothing else.

The Wal-Mart back in LaSalle has now put up a few more Robot Heroes BB/SW UM/Megs packs. GO GO GO!

Bonecrusher and Swindle are now everywhere. You can't go down a toy aisle without tripping over them.

Voyager Prime remains an urban legend for the time being.

They'll be pretty hard to find now, especially Bumblebee. I suggest trying lesser-known toy sections in Sears or the Bay. TRU did have Rodimus not too long ago, but they're gone now, unfortunately.

I sadly missed out on Starscream, after going "I'll get him later" several times... I've pretty much resigned myself to looking on eBay.

Thanks kirb I'll try that. Did you already buy a starscream on ebay? I'll be in nanaimo on the weekend, toy market isnt as huge there might be chance at finding him.

Any wave 1's still left in the lower mainland BC?

I'm looking for Barricade and Blackout.

I actually didn't find him yet, that would be great if you could find one! How do you wanna do it, I guess I'll send you the money if you find him? Thanks a lot for the offer, I really appreciate it. Maybe if you see any 08 Bumblebees too... lol.

As for your question about the wave 1's, I have not seen any Blackouts for awhile now, but Metro TRU still had a bunch of wave 1 deluxes (that's about all they had), however I'm not sure if Barricade was one of them. I would also suggest Superstore, they actually had quite a good selection of Movie toys awhile back.

I got some flyers today; unfortunately, nothing from the TRU...
Maybe next week.

Saw someone in the Toronto subway today coming back from Walmart @ Square One Mississauga with at least 5 large bags full of Mirage and OP Alts. Is there a sale going on & was he just one of the many scalpers out there?

I saw Blackout at The Bay downtown a few days ago; Blackout was also sighted at the Broadway TRU recently. I haven't seen Barricade in several weeks. On the plus side, it looks like he will be included in the next wave of Deluxes in August along with Longarm and Payload.

On cybertron.ca they were saying they were $10. I haven't been around there latley, so I don't know.

They also claim that a manager from Toys Toys Toys bought tons of them (I guess to resell there for insane prices).

That would make sense then. TOYS TOYS TOYS are such rip off artists. Who else would sell the recent Hasbro 20th Annie OP for $149.99? PLEASE!

In the Sears flyer that came today, I read about a sale on all toys: 20% off on Saturday and Sunday. Not sure if that helps a lot since (at least my) Sears has crappy stock and inflated prices.

Frick. I just found out on the A3U board that some jerk came and bought up all the 08 BBs at Zellers in Metrotown. That friggin pisses me off.

"I only kept five!" He says.

Zellers in Chinook Mall in Calgary, AB has a TON of Arcees and Dreadwings, I grabbed an 08 BB and there was one left. Zellers in Market Mall, Calgary, just has a Dreadwing and the wave 1 stuff.

Yea, I found a classified where some scalper bought 08 BB and is trying to sell it for $25

Friggin douches. Not only does it make it hard for us collectors, how are the kids supposed to get it if some asshole dumps the lot of them into his cart 5 minutes after they're put on the shelf?

Dammit, people like that piss me off. Stores should start putting limits on things.

Thing is, what the hell do the stores care? They make money of the retards, and that's all thats important. They can always restock later and bratty kids oughtta be more patient!

BC mainlanders:

Tons of Blackout Scorpinok 2packs in Surrey TRU.

But thats all they have...
