Good news for our Canuck members! It appears Titanium: Cheetor and Titanium: The Fallen are now available in Canada. Unfortunately however, we are still stuck with the bland red box and they still lacks a name to display, other then the one in the box on the faction symbol.

Another nice surprise is the release of Beatmix Bumblebee. If your in to dancing robots, this might be right up your ally.

Both of these figures were found by yours truely at Wal-mart in Mississauga and TRU Whitpy respectively.

ive been reading about sightings about these guys for about a week or so, all across ontario and quebec (other provinces too I'm sure, but I just check for ontario :)

Doesnt seem to be to many floating around yet! I would like to see them though, up close for rael !

I would have loved to take pics of those awful Canadian boxes the Titaniums are sporting, but I already have the US versions. No need for me to pick them up. As for Beatmix Bumblebee... just not worth it to me. Again, I didn't take pics, because I didn't by them, and I don't carry a camera with me. :)

Sorry, this may appear to be old news. I've been somewhat out of the loop and I checked the history of the major sites and didn't find any sightings reported.

My mistake if any of this is old news.

Hobby stores don't count as official sightings. If that were the case, there would be no need for sightings.

Ah, that makes sense. So what do you mean by the red packaging? I take it that the normal packaging has cheetor's colour scheme or something?

Yay. Though, I have yet to find these anywhere near me yet (the titaniums). Plus, I've only seen Beatmix BB at a Sharper Image for $60! I'll wait for the Wal-Mart release!

Yes indeedy. Check the links I posted at the top o' the page for Fallen and Cheetor. They are shown in the US packaging. Much nicer, more detail and most importantly they have a name printed on the box. The Canadian boxes are on tone of red for 3/4 of the box and the back shows RID Prime, SS and Rodimus Prime. The wave brake down for this set is:

1 x RID Prime
1 x Cheetor
1 x Fallen

Ultra Magnus will look so contrast in a bright red box I think...

I'm sure you could, but he'll be the most expensive there. Zellers will have it for the cheapest.

Yeah, I found Cheetor and Fallen at Wally World yesterday. They were still unpacking them and I saw a leader class box on the skid, so they could have had Megatron too. They also had a pallet display of all the first wave stuff.

The Movie toys here in canada don't even have the profile of tech specs on the back...it just shows a list of other available toys in the line...kinda sucks actually

That would be because of the Tri-lingual packaging. the tech specs are inside on the back of the instructions

So, no Titanium Soundwave, eh?

I might go scouting today, I'll let you hosers know what I find, if anything.
