While all of Canada is in quarantine, Walmart is remaining open and some fans have stopped by the toy aisle while getting groceries. From these visits, several fans have brought back sightings of both the Megatron and Hotlink box sets which are part of Walmart's exclusive line of Siege repaints for the Transformers Netflix Series. Here is a specific sighting from Alex, over at Cybertron.ca, who found these in Calgary:

Today I went to the Deerfoot WM. There were 2x Netflix Megatron and 2x Netflix Hotlink (Bought 1 Hotlink).

Megatron looks really good, nice silver paint and plastic with shading done in silver paint on his legs.

Hotlink is great, dark grey plastic with shading in both metallic purple and pale purple (almost lilac) paints. He's not as dark as seen on stock images.
Targetmasters (Heatstroke and Heartbrun) are unimpressive, what you see is what you get.

Now, while sightings can be exciting news, please remember that this is a time of crisis and it has been advised to only venture out if need be. Stay safe fellow fans!

While the big Australia Toy Fair reveal was stolen from under their nose, there are lots of new sightings for anticipated toys that hopefully make up for it. These all come from the Ozformers Facebook page. There is even news of a current deal on Transformers at Myer. Monday (the 9th) is the last day of this deal.

"20% off Transformers (and most toys) at Myer this weekend - ends Monday 9th March.
Just in time for some new Earthrise and Studio Series toys, if your nearest Myer has done some re-stocking this week.

Transformers Earthrise updates for Australia.
After they started showing up in some Toyworlds and Myer stores last week, people are now seeing the Deluxe and Voyager sizes at Kmart stores around the country.
Kmart prices are the same as their Siege prices - $29 for Deluxe, $49 for Voyager.
Myer have the Deluxe, Voyager and Leader classes.
Toyworld are still the only ones so far with Micromasters and Battlemasters.
-
Also worth noting that Kmart have been getting in a new shipment of Studio Series toys as well, with the recent wave of Deluxe (Soundwave, Hotrod, Triplets, Bumblebee) and an older wave of Voyager (Long Haul, KSI Boss).
-
Some first sightings from the last week...
- Cyberverse Ultimate w4 Optimus & Shockwave (at Toyworld).
- Cyberverse Ultra w6 Clobber, Hotrod, Bumblebee (at Toyworld).

While these were found earlier in the week, no one contacted us and we learnt it much later. But we still wanted to let everyone know just in case. These are non transforming minifigures from the company Super Impulse, which stand 1.25 inches tall. Tiny! They are also surprisingly well painted for such tiny figures.

These rae in no way related to the previous use of the words World's Smallest which was a first party line while these are licnesed products.

They were found at Target, in the Easter section for $4.99 each. Transformers Fan Rocky posted his finding on Facebook.

We bring you news this evening that Studio Series Wave 9 Deluxe figures have been found at retail in the U.S., by yours truly. Perusing the shelves at specialty toy shop Megalopolis: City of Collectibles in South Salt Lake, Utah, SS-57, SS-58, and SS-59, otherwise known as Offroad Bumblebee, Roadbuster, and jet mode Shatter, had been recently stocked, with photo proof below. They were each listed for $22.99. Also found on another shelf were Earthrise Battle Masters Soundbarrier, a new mold, and Smashdown, a straight re-release of the Siege Battle Master.







These figures are showing up a bit early, as many preorders have them coming in late March or early April- specialty shops such as this one often get new figures in earlier than mass retail, though their prices may be a touch higher. Roadbuster is the first of the Dark of the Moon Wreckers to come in the Studio Series line, while Shatter and Bumblebee are both from the Bumblebee movie; 'Bee taking the form of an Earth mode jeep which he scans upon first arriving on Earth, and Shatter comes in her jet mode.

Have you seen any upcoming figures at retail, and there hasn't been a news story about it on our front page? Please contact us, with photo proof, and you could be credited in the story. Happy hunting, Seibertronians!

A friend of the site, Michael, sent some cool news our way. He spotted the new Cyberverse Warrior figures, Starscream and Hammerbyte. These warrior figures seem to have more articulation than before and that Strarscream has a nice new cybertronian alt mode. These were found at a Walmart in Florida. These are part of a rebranded Cyberverse line called Bumblebee Cyberverse Adventures. Yearly rebranding is common in longer toylines to let stores know that these toys are new.

If you find these toys, let the community know through our forums.

A friend to the site, Kamalethar, spent some time getting all the Walmart preorder links to the newly revealed Earthrise toys, and other recent reveals. The past week was filled with news on where to buy them, but Walmart is a place we did overlook, so we are thankful to him for the legwork. Here is his message:

Just thought it proper to notify you Walmart is now offering the same Transformers Earthrise pre-orders as Target, but...
1. They are not having the sale Target is
2. They at least have the pre-orders ready to be ordered whereas most of Target's and HasbroPulse's pre-orders are already maxed out.

For those that have had trouble getting to the newly released Hasbro pre-orders before they are sold out; here are the links to the currently available Walmart pre-orders...

There seems to be a slight discount on the majority of the listings, but nothing like Target's current sale. The difference being...the Walmart pre-orders are still currently available!

Roundup of Transformers Botbots Series 5 News

Within the past two weeks, this new series of Botbots has been quietly making its way across the world and now we rounded up all the news about it, just to get us all up to date.

For starters, this 5th series continues the gold rush games and the bubble will be yellow (chartreuse). It is made up of redecos, retools and new molds with new themes like air travel and asian food.

TF-fan kev777 found them on Entertianment Earth:

After seeing Starscream post in the botbots thread about an online retailer having some Series 5 in stock and on pre-order, I checked entertainment earth and they have the 8-packs in stock as well along with photos and the new tribe names.

The generic travel group is the Frequent Flyers and the generic Asian food group is the Hibachi Heats

The website has its wires crossed though, since the orders for what they call wave 5 are here but the listings with mages of wave 5 are here. That later listing, even though wrongly named, has the right info pertaining to series 5 inside.

The 5 packs were found at Target in the US within this time as well and bearytrek wrote in to let us know (that is his photo we see below). Those are the Party Favors and Los Deliciosos teams.

Series 5 was first found in the UK before any official announcement.

It was a good day hunting for your fellow editor. During a visit to my local Toysrus in the Montreal area, I found three classes of the new Earthrise line. The ones found were the Battle Masters with Soundbarrier and a rerelease of Smashdown, two sets of Micro Masters and voyagers Starscream and Grapple. They are the same prices as last year (so $29.99 for voyagers, ect). With the leaders already being found, the only figures left to be found are the deluxes. By comparison, The entire Earthrise line has already been found in the US, with the Battle Masters being the most recent. They were all found at Target, which is the only with Earhrise figures at the moment.
