Canada Transformers sightings
I was in TrU Broadway yesterday and was surprised to see that full-on display. That Leader-class Prime is grossly overpriced!

Definitely. They always are up here.
1337W422102, thanks for the tip. I'll check my local one next week and see what they've got.

Went to the LaSalle TRU again even though they told me to check back tomorrow, because I am a stubborn ass. I was pleasantly surprised to see all the movie toys and Robot Heroes out - that Leader Prime is impressive, as is Blackout. No sign of any new Classics like the guys said, however - I'm betting that blasted convention is going to be my only hope for Soundwave.
And now to have supper, go back out, and purchase a tiiiiiiiiiny Shockwave. :3
It'll be awesome to finally own some form of my all-time favorite TF without having to pay 500+ on EBay for him, even if he is tiny. ^_^
Oh yeah, and Grimlock too. >_>

Quebeckers, we are OUT OF LUCK for Soundwave:

Check the bottom of the page.
Honestly, what is this crap? We didn't get the commemorative series line, now this? What is the blasted deal with the G1 toys? Is there some sort of invisible barrier that prevents G1 toy boxes to be translated into French? Cripes!

I was at the TRU in Mississauga on Hurontario St. and I was shocked to see that they were selling the Wall Mount Megatron Statues and the Mini Prime head busts. They had a little bit of everything else minus Voyager Ironhide and Starscream. They did have Soundwave though. Sorry if this miffs you guys, but I passed

Can't find anything new here other than Ratchet and Blackout (who leaked earlier), and the Real Gear.
I'm getting desperate, what does everyone think of the Real Gear? They seem nifty, but a bit, well, basic.

I'd be surprised if Basics were anything but basic.

Anybody find the Decepticon Sneak Attack Robot Heroes set yet?

I'm wondering if it will even be released in Canada...

I haven't seen it yet, but normally anything that's a store exclusive is also exclusive to the States.

OK, has ANYONE from Canada been able to find any movie figures aside from those already released? And by "those already released," I mean figures other than:
-Barricade
-Scorponok
-Wreckage
-Jazz
-Bumblebee
-Brawl
-Blackout
-Ratchet
-Optimus Prime
I've been to two Toys 'R Us stores in the past week, and, aside from Robot Heros, the voice changer helmet, the blasters and the Fast Action Battlers and other kid stuff, those are the only movie figures I've been able to find.
Obviously, there have to be others. (Ironhide and Starscream are the two that most immediately spring to mind.) And of course, I bet there's no place around here that has a Megatron figure.

Methinks that's all we canucks got so far. No Ironhide. No Starscream. No Megatron. No Bonecrusher. Just the wave 1 toys that you listed...

Copy that. Those are all I've seen. Hell, I haven't even seen all of those!

^ I was there Monday, but they only had the first wave stuff + FABs, Real Gears, and other paraphernalia. Still no Bonecrusher, Starscream or Megatron. The guy did say they might be getting more on the 5th though, but I haven't been there since then.

All Zellers here has is Ratchet, Optimus Prime, and Blackout.
Wal-Mart still hasn't gotten any of the movie toys in, other then the Preview figures they put out 2 weeks ago.

My Wal-Mart is more interested in selling the crap from Spider-Man 3 and PoC3, then getting the new Transformers in.
Of course they did have a cool poster of G1 characters, which I picked up.

Personally, no, but on cybertron.ca, they say that Starscream and Ironhide are in Quebec, so maybe soon:
