How??? The stores by me don't have Misfire, Twin Twist, Six Shot, Windblade, or Galvatron. If I found any of those, or Chaos on Velocitron, I would be a VERY satisfied person.

Once again, Willy shows us why Canada is better.

I'm almost surprised they didn't have some TR Arcees and Grotusques in stock.

Anyone spotted TLK Nitro in Canada yet? Still haven't seen TR octane or blitzwing yet either, but surprisingly found them on Amazon.ca today at regular retail price... jumped on that pretty fast.

Nitro is in the images we just posted and the TR voyagers were found at Walmart.

The new voyagers were also at TrU. However, TrU and Walmart still don't have TR Slugslinger yet. Fortunately I could get it at my local independent store but for 5$ more. No regrets though.

TRU in America should take notes.

This reminds me of the good old days.. an entire aisle for TFs, one for Star Wars, another one for GI Joe, another one for He-Man....
I wouldn’t count US Toys R Us out, however, they’re simply declaring bankruptcy to free themselves from the crippling $5B that’s been around their neck since the company was sold in the early 00s. They’re not done yet, as can be seen by Hasbro and others sticking with them.

Oh man, oh man... so many figures that I still need just sitting there on the pegs. Come on Misfire, Twin Twist, Windblade... get in my cart. Oh, is that you Overlord? You come on in as well... *sigh*

Why must my TRU torture me with their silly little five foot section of shelfwarmers? :-/

I wish my nearest TRU had all that movie stuff. Both Masterpiece Prime and Bee, wave 2 deluxes and voyagers... man...

Isn't that nice? It's an American toy line & everybody else in the world gets it except fricken America. :BANG_HEAD:

That's very tru about the RID warriors. I don't mean to scare anyone but these have literally been found everywhere except the US.

My pictures show Bludgeon, Thermidor and Twinferno in Canada

but here is also a pic from the UK

from Singapore

From Australia

from Malaysia

And on and on. TF fan Nevermore, who follows this closely wrote the following to sum it up:

At this point, [they've] been released in pretty much every country except for the US: Asia (Singapore, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Taiwan, Malaysia), Canada, Australia, Europe (the UK and Germany)... we all have seen a retail release of his wave, but it's still AWOL as far as US retail is concerned.

So yes, people can literally say that these toys are released everywhere except the US. It is entirely possible (though nothing is confirmed) that they may be skipped due to them seemingly being the last warriors in the line. Just like Skylynx in CW. But that is all speculation.

Yes, I noticed Bludgeon in your pics. And guess what! After months of never restocking anything, my Walmart just loaded up on the Blastwave/Starscream wave. :shock:

And the day after the 1st US sighting of Overlord, my Walmart got 4 Sixshot's. :BANG_HEAD:

And nobody ever restocks Titans Return deluxes anymore. Not even Walgreens. I was hoping to find Misfire by now but I give up. When I get paid next week I'm ordering him online. This is such bull****! :BOOM:

Help! I accidentally listed dragon storm as "sighted"! I don't know what to do! I also found the clones 2-pack at EB games. The guy working there said there were more but they sold out.

Crap my bad. I saw this and ordered it a couple days ago. Forgot to post 8-}

Now that's a transformers line-up!!
Toys'r'us in France is so late with the releases it's almost useless to check it more often than every 6 months. Ans even so we only a third of the toyline...

All big collector boxes are NOT in store. ONLINE only. Because those are expensive items and the toy section always get trashed by savages. Anyway, shipping is usually free for orders that are 50$ or more. So you're not losing anything. Unless you are homeless and/or don't have a credit card.

Don't think he's been spotted on shelves yet...

A new sale starts today at Toysrus.ca (and in stores) for Titans Return Leaders at $39.87 and Robots in Disguise One Steps at $5.87. These are the lowest prices for the respective products so far this year. The sale ends in one week from today.

As far as sightings go, Leader Dragonstorm has been found at both Toysrus and Walmart, along with the Titans Return Slugslinger wave. The third wave of deluxes from Transformers the Last Knight have been found at Toysrus and can currently be purchased online, as we show below.

TR Seaspray made it's way to Walmart.

TrU have TR Blitzwing and Octone, but they are rare. Happy hunting!

The latest wave of TlK deluxes are at TrU as well. Crosshair, Strafe, and some other reprint.

Fri Oct 20, 2017 2:12 pm

Was able to find all TLK Wave 3 Deluxes and Voyagers in Toys R Us in Toronto.

Robots in Disguise Legion Cyclonus and Heatseeker had yet to be found in North America, until now. While they have not hit the US yet (with no pre-orders listed either), they have been found at Toysrus in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Hopefully that is a sign that they will be found in the US soon, though with the Bludgeon wave still MIA months after sightings from around the globe, you can never be sure. Good luck on the hunt if these interest you and stay tuned for a pictorial review that shall be posted shortly.
