While it's been a month long trickle, the entire first wave of the Transformers Generations Legacy United line has now been found in the US and is also popping up all across the globe. Below is a quick breakdown of the places the toys have been found (it is not an exhaustive list) followed by review videos for all the new figures.
Core class were found at Target in the US and Walmart in Canada
Deluxes were found at Meijer's and Target in the US and Gamestop in Canada
Fun news for Americans, several new exclusives in the Buzzworthy Bumblebee line are being found in Target stores. Here is a breakdown of the sightings:
- Transformers Rise of the Beasts Jungle Mission 3-Pack, which has Cheetor, Mirage and Airazor (finally) found by 3P Desperation in Daphne, Alabama
- Transformers Studio Series Rise Of The Beasts Optimus Prime found by Taureanstar in Mooresville, North Carolina
- Transformers Studio Series 86 2 Pack, featuring a dying Prowl and Ironhide, found by CringeMcCringle in Bainbridge, Ohio (AOE Grimlock was also found at that location and has been out for a little while, but just a heads up in case people don't know)
Hot off the sighting of Toxitron Collection G2 Deluxe figures at a Canadian Walmart we also have our first sighting of a Leader G2 Grimlock at a Walmart in Florida by a TFW member. Thanks to Nemesis Primal for letting us know as well as photos from both sets of sightings.
Nemesis Primal wrote:Apparently as of yesterday the Deluxe wave is out in Canada, seems like Dead End and Sideswipe are the shortpacked ones based off Robot Kingdom's case breakdown and in-store availability:
And on top of that, a TFW user bruteslayer101 found G2 Grimlock in Florida, looks like the IDW head on the box art was not indicative of the actual figure:
So I guess the hunt is on for those looking for these?
January is almost over and it seems the new toys from the first wave of Transformers Legacy Evolution have all appeared at US retail, and all at Target. While we reported on the voyagers being found a little while ago, the deluxes have recently been found as have the core class figures. There are no new figures in first wave of leaders (just repacks), with leader Prime Skyquake being released in the second wave. The image below comes from Rob who posted about a sighting in SoCal on the Transformers Toys Facebook group.
In Canada, the first wave of deluxes has been slowly making its way to Gamestop stores and the core class figures were found at Walmart and Gamestop. There are no signs of the voyagers in Canada yet.
The first wave of the Transformers Legacy Evolution line is being released rather haphazardly. It's already readily available in some continents and when it comes to the US, Americans are getting them from Amazon, plus the dates from Hasbro Pulse have moved up. However, brick and mortar retail is still lagging. The deluxe class toys have been found in Canada though with Gamestop stocking their stores after fulfilling pre-orders. All deluxes have been found though they may be scattered across different stores, since they don't get full cases for each store. They were found in Gamestops in Ontario and Quebec, like this sighting from Banshee over at Cybertron.ca. If you are interested in seeing some reviews, we have them for all the wave 1 deluxes.
Needlenose
chuckdawg1999 wrote:The Double Targetmasters hit me deep in the nostalgia feels, they were some of my favorite later G1 figures and I dug the gimmick. Needlenose is much better than I think anyone thought it would be. Articulation is spot on, even includes swiveling wrists. Articulation is so good you can even pull off some good sniper poses. Transformation is smooth and intuitive resulting in a great jet mode. This should be the first purchase from the wave.
Hot Shot
chuckdawg1999 wrote:Armada Hot Shot is the figure we should've gotten with the Universe release some years ago. It remains faithful to the classic design while updating the articulation and giving the overall look a modern spin. I am disappointed that Jolt, Hot Shot's Minicon, wasn't included as I feel that's part of the overall package. While maybe not the first deluxe from the wave that you should purchase, it should be close to the top.
We share with you a report of the first wave of Transformers Legacy Evolution deluxe figures found in the Philippines. These were found at a Toysrus. The wave includes Needlenose, Breakdown, Hotshot and Scraphook. The sighting comes from the Cybertron Philippines Facebook page. This is good news, it means these toys are ready for international distribution so they could make it to the west sooner rather than later.
Yeah, that's right. BOTH wave 1 and wave 2 of the Studio Series's core class are available at retail right now, somewhere in the world. For wave 1, which has Ravage and Shockwave, it was found at Canóvanas Walmart in Puerto Rico. The sighting is from Jampy on Facebook. Wave two, which adds 86 Spike to the mix, was found in Dubai just now at Hamleys. That sighting is from Jiggs Ong.
The second wave of Walmart Exclusive Netflix deluxe Transformers figures has been found at US retail. The first recorded sighting was in an Arizona Walmart. These are going for $19.87. For those curious of the case breakdown, it seems to be:

Let us know if you pick up any sets that don't match these content listings as it's always possible that true randomness has arrived since this latest series omits instructions for the figures.
