Last September,
we had posted a list of the Transformers toys slated for release in 2017 that were not released yet. This was a reminder in case people saw them during the rest of the year, and in case they had indeed been found. The year is come and gone and we are even done with the first quarter of 2018 and some 2017 toys still have not been found on shelves in the US. Some have been found at toy wholesalers, but all of these below have not been found at retail yet. This is simply a heads up to the fan community in case they have seen them or in case they want to look into getting them now through other means than retail in case they are indeed skipped in the US and thus may command higher prices on the secondary market later (granted, some of these toys had very little anticipation).
Here are toys we do not yet have sightings of in the US:
Transformers The Last KnightLegion HoundLegion DragonstormAllspark Starter SqweeksAllspark MegatronThese toys were all available on Entertainment Earth but only to be purchased with the entire wave which consisted of several repacks in every case. It may also be that Allspark Megatron did see a limited release on Amazon.
Deluxe Cogman was never found at US retail either though the entire wave was available for purchase at online collector oriented stores and online wholesalers.
Both Legion and Deluxe Hot Rod have never been found in Walmart stores but were plentiful online, making it a defacto online exclusive.
Robots in DisguiseLegion Cyclonus
Legion Heatseeker
These were not even offered in the US at the wholesaler level.
So if these are toys you saw in the US at retail, do let us know. And on e-bay ther is
only 1 listing for Cyclonus,
from Australia.
What is odd about all of these is that this is country specific. As you can see below, several of these toys were found at brick and mortar retail in other countries, just not the US.
