I like a person who takes a hint.

Let's just say you weren't alone

Tried 2 Dollar Trees today, but nada.

A cashier at the Warren Road store said he knew what Kreons I was talking about, and that they'd be on the next truck in about a week, so hopefully that bodes well for other DTs carrying them if we're patient.

Anyone else canvassing Dollar Trees developing a problem impulse buying cheap junk food? Maybe I'm just upset that Lady Lead seems to finally be gone for good.

Okay, it's no loss, since the whole S.T.O.P. toyline was cheap and fugly...but I should've gotten one figure just for the compelling packaging backstory.

Oh, and they did have a Transformers/Angry Birds activity book, so the Kreons aren't the only official TF product they're carrying. No AofE stuff though.

Thank you for the information!
One store also had a TF:Prime lolly pop, like the big flat carnival kind

Whooo! Able to go to a Dollar Tree, and it had these guys in stock.


Not so whoooo! half of my buys ended up being doubles.

And neither Octane has a "left" wing.

If anyone wants to trade I'm open.



On TFW's Kreo thread it sounds like this is mostly an East Coast thing.

Makes sense

Kanrabat once said you never know what you'll find at Winners (TJ Maxx in Canada) and he was right. A routine visit yielded some very interesting and odd sightings such as leftover Age of Extinction toys. The most notable is a Leader Optimus Prime at only 19.99$ cdn (16.12$ US). The walmart exclusive one step Stinger was also found which is as random as you can get, especially since this was never found in stores in Quebec, Canada (where these sightings are from), and had to be ordered online. The inclusion of Stinger leads to the conclusion that this is probably overstock from Walmart. For any fan who would only buy these at a discount or who had been curious about these toys, this may be your shot. Be sure to report what your local Winners may have in the sightings thread.

It's about time, holy hell

Which one?

Stinger & Leader OP.

I have Armor Knight Prime (who is suh-weet), but I'd pay $20 (more likely $25 in the States) for a Prime to stick in vehicle mode.

[-Kanrabat-]

Fawk me for having bought the original AOE Leader OP for 60$+tx at TrU.

Now, I think I'll have to hunt down some more Construcbots.
Will my local Winners deliver?

Construct-bots are the only thing TJ Maxx and Burlington Coat Factory seem to carry in my area these days. Outside of the rare and welcome Brainstorms I stumbled on a month ago, that is.

Wouldnt it be cheaper in the states?

Huh. Well I be darned. Yea, it should be cheaper. Hopefully that's the reality, though the Generations voyagers were 17.99 here, so I can't see a Leader figure being much cheaper than that.

The few times I have gone into one of these stores and stopped by the toy department, they,ve been so messy that I usually just leave.

Yeah, the C-Bots Smoke'n'Shock wave showed up in SE Michigan TJMaxx and Marshall's (and Tuesday Morning for that matter) almost a year ago, leaving me a bit confused about just what this bodes for blowout stores in my neck of the continent. They've had Dino Sparkers, Power Attackers, and that Bee/Strafe Masher for months now, with C-Bots Slash and Scorn being the only VHTF AofE items.

Burlington Coat Factory you say? Never thought of that; 3 more stores for me to canvas tomorrow. Though after that time in 2000 I found Machine Wars Optimus in a Save-a-Lot Food Store for $10.00, I'm not surprised to find TFs for sale literally anywhere.

Wrong thread

[william-james88]

I just picked up a Voyager Galvatron for $9.99 at a Ross in suburban Salt Lake City, Utah.

Please report this in your respective sightings thread. Let's keep this thread for canadian sightings as it's name suggests.

No worries....just commented on the story on the main page, and thought it was talking about AOE stuff hitting shelves in discount stores in general. It wasn't very clear until the post posted.

You could also have posted that in the "Transformers Haul Thread". Because Galvy at that price was a nice find indeed.

You are totally right, it wasn't clear, my apologies and NICE FIND! And, like Kanrabat suggests, post it in the toy haul thread to brag away about that amazing deal

These toys still wont sell. For people to want to buy these toys, the movie would have had to make you feel some sort of emotional connection to the characters in the movie.

What does that mean for all the age of extinction toys sold last summer boosting Hasbro's earnings to a record high?
