Cyberton.ca is reporting that Transformers Animated Voyager class figures have hit the shelves at Toys R Us stores in Canada. This first wave of Animated Voyagers consists of Bulkhead, Starscream and Megatron.

No posting has been made as to which TRU's are boasting them, but the general consensus on the boards at Cyberton.ca is that its a nationwide release.

So maybe that HTS listing for May 25 was a sign of things to come??

[Cyber-Kun]

well, there was a rather large supply of deluxes in kitchener, so I'm guessing they'll have the voyagers...
yea! I can get Starscream!

Hasbro has really made this confusing for folks. So the Animated series will be released in Canada soon, but won't be released in the U.S. until possibly June?

The difference may be in the packaging. The ones in CANADA are the North American version (tri-lingual). The ones to be released in the US will be all english. The Canadian versions may have come off the manufacturing line first since the differ from those to be released in the US and other parts of the world where they will get the uni-lingual packages.

Whatever the reason I will be picking up one of each thank you very much.

Great, I'm heading out that way now.

Another reason is that Hasbro Canada "bids" no how many figures they want to release across the GWN. We'll prolly get Universe first too

For the love of Primus, why won't they just release them in the US?! I MUST HAVE Megatron!!

[Magnimus]

They're not out everywhere yet. Reports are coming in from some areas in Ontario, but my local TRU didn't have any voyagers. They did have a whack of the four deluxe animated figures though.

[Sunstar]

These will be released in other stores that are not TRU right?

[Blurrz]

Sweet! Hahaha, we Nucks one-up you Americans yet again!

[Autobot Megatron]

[botcon]

[Zeds]

No sign at TRU stores in the GTA. Maybe when they get their next shipment in the coming days?

Ya, they'll be in other stores. Give it a week.

Nothing in BC yet for Voyagers, it's Ontario only at this point. Which does not constitute a "Nation-wide" release. :p

Is Bulkhead, Starscream and Megatron the only voyagers in wave 1? Kinda strange if they don't include Optimus Prime.
(But he does have a deluxe.)
Has their been any word on when wave 2 is coming out?

Prime is Wave 1.5 of the voyagers. He'll be out within a month or so.
