Hope you at least snagged a Drift, ol' boy.

I found Wave 2 in TRU in Toronto too, and I want drift like a beast but I haven't received my pay from my new job yet and I'm holding out hope I'll see him again.

Is Grimlock going to come back in another wave or have I missed him?

I am sure another grimlock will eventually be released but this version might not come back in another wave. Although I am sure he will be restocked, theres still a bunch of him where I am.

Naw. I passed on them both *tear*, as well as leader Amadatron in the hopes that I finally stumble on CW wave 2 :-(

Hopefully you find him in a store with older stock, cause here's the case layout for the next two waves.

For a few $ more, you could go the Takara route:

There're like a half dozen of her for every two other characters where I am.

Cybertron.ca has confirmed that the two new rid figures were also found in Quebec. Now bring us the wave 2 CW deluxes TRU!

Strongarm is the only one I've actually bought, and that was the legend one so it can sit on my desk at work.

It's a Toysrus week-end news update trifecta for Canada.

Firstly, Seibertron's very own welcometothedarksyde has reported the following two items on Toysrus computers with the following SKN numbers:

-MP Bluestreak- 228367
-MP Starscream- 065129

The price for both is 89.99$ Canadian. Also, the recent images of Habsro's Bluestreak in box confirms that these toys will be available in all of Canada due to the trinlingual packaging.

Secondly, today starts a week-long sale where all Transformer toys below 26.99$ are 25% off.

This sale comes in very handy since yours truly has finally spotted the Combiner Wars wave 2 deluxe limbs at Toysrus, which are currently priced at 13.47$ cdn thanks to the sale (only dead end was left at the Decarie location in Montreal). Time to get your Menasor limbs! Rainchecks can also be given if you do not find the product you are looking for.

Also, for those with families, Toysrus is hosting an event Saturday the 25th, starting at 11 am, with demos and free giveaways including a Lego set. So your kids have something to do as you go scoop up the deals.

I'll stop in tonight, but as I was at my TRU yesterday I doubt they've restocked yet.

I just ordered voyager Silverbolt and the 3 arealbot limbs, plus scout Thundercracker. As for the missing arealbot, I have no choice but to buy it later, mabe at full price.

Why didn you go the takara route like you did with menasor? That last arealbot will cost you quite a bit since it will only be available online at a higher premium since the distributors dont give the dealers a discount as big as what Hasbro gives TRU and larger stores. The estimate on those extra figures is about 35$ cdn shipped at the lowest.

I just hit up a TRU in Edmonton I rarely go to, and they have literally 100 or so Voyagers (wave 1). I hope they have a sale coming up soon cause those will be around for a whiiiiillleee.

Anyways, I hit up Winners at Capilano and found a couple Nightbeats and Cross Cuts ($9.99).

What? You mean it's not part of wave 2 or something?

I think he's referring to the upcoming Slingshot release, which is going to give G1 purists their original-team Superion. Skydive, Alpha Bravo, and Firefly are wave 1, while Air Raid is the 4th mainline release Aerialbot and part of wave 2.

Oh sorry, I inferred wrong. I thought you were talking about the true 4th limb that is G1 accurate that will be an online exclusive. The 4th standard aereal bot will be in wave 2. Sorry for scaring you.

From the start, I'm making COMBINER WARS Superion. Originally, there is no member of the arealbots that are an helicopter afterall.
Plus, having a con as a stand-in is just dumb.

TRU.ca has G1 Leader Megatron back up but not in stock. I suggest everyone interested click on that email notification thingy so they can nab one when he's in stock. I have yet to see anything but Armada Megatron on store shelves so this might be your best shot

News Credits: 101 · by **-Kanrabat-** » Sat Apr 25, 2015 11:13 am

G1 version IS the most popular. Hasbro, Y U NO saw this coming and made cases of 3, two G! and on Armada?

I was lucky to find the G1 Megs in store due to the diligence of a dedicated store clerk. Still, IDO want the Armada version as well. However, I'm confident that he'll be at 30$ on clearance down the line. I'm waiting for that.

For what it worth, TRU Surrey BC had Year of the Goat Soundwave yesterday.

No tags, but the clerk said it was $219.99.

Over here, we got the Platinum Soundwave (220$) Optimus (200$) and Insecticons (110$). Those things are priced so high, even the scalpers don't want them and the things are shelfwarming.
