Canada is seeing lots of new stuff all of a sudden. The Kingdom wave 2 deluxes and leader figures have been found so all of wave 2 has been found at retail, same as in the US. The deluxes and Ultra magnus were found at Walmarts in Ontario.

Voyager Studio Series Bumblebee Starscream was found today at an EB Games in Laval, Quebec.

And the Botropolis set is now available on Amazon.ca

At around 77$CAN for the set (free shipping by default at least) it look expensive at first glance. But it's quite a deal in fact. That's two 30$CAN deluxes and two teams of micromasters at 14$CAN at full price. So it's basically a team of micromasters for free, not counting the extra accessories.

It's been over a month since the pegs at my Walmart are nothing but Cyberverse leftovers. The only new things to ever appear are the Kingdom Core figures and that's it.

Meanwhile in BC I still haven’t even seen Kingdom Megatron yet, with EB Games continuously pushing back his release date. It’s supposed to be out this Thursday according to their system, but at this point I’ll believe it when I see it.

Walmart and Toys R Us have mostly been barren wastelands since like November. I managed to luck out a couple times here and there, but for the most part it’s just been wasted trips.

This is fun, another year another price hike. Since Canada was behind on the 2021 toys, only in the recent month has it become clear that any new deluxe released in 2021 from here on out will be under the new price point of 32.99 CAD. This is the case for Walmart, Toysrus and Amazon, the three main Hasbro retailers in Canada. This price hike is being seen across all Hasbro action figures previously at the 29.99 price point, so the Star Wars Black Series and Marvel Legends toys as well.

As for new Canadian sightings, the entire first wave of Buzzworthy Bumblebee toys has been found at Toysrus Canada in Laval, Quebec. These include the Cyberverse and Studio Series rereleases along with the brand new core class mold. That one is being sold for $28 CAD.

Thanks to Kanrabat for letting us know of all this.

Look like it.

https://www.ebgames.ca/Toys-Collectible ... lack-zarak

Still, Age 3 and Up are pretty reliable and unless shipping is free with E.B Games, it's cheaper with A3&U for Quebec just because we don't have to pay the Quebec tax.

You van pici up at eb stores so shipping is free.

For now, the "store pick up" option is grayed out so it's not possible. It may also be something that will never ever be available in any store because it's too big so it may remain online only.

Still, it's cheaper even with shipping from Age 3 and Up. Just because we Québécois skip the Quebec tax:

Age 3 and Up:

Order summary
Transformers Generations Selects - Titan Black Zarak × 1
$229.99

Subtotal
$229.99

Shipping
$13.99

GST
$12.20

Total
$256.18 CAD

EB Games with in-store pick-up (if available):

Montant avant/hors taxes
230
+ TPS (5%)
11.5
+ TVQ (9.975%)
22.94
= Montant avec taxes
264.44

Proof that the Quebec tax is one HELL of a scam. (It actually tax the federal tax!)

Plus if your order from Age 3 and Up go above 250$CAN, shipping is free. Unfortunately, preorders item cannot combine into a larger order. If anyone are willing to risk it, they can wait until it's in stock then buy something that is worth above 20$CAN to save on the 13.99$ of shipping. But I'm not taking any chances just to save a McDonald meal.

Nation wide slow news month it seems.

Anyway for your entertainment, only RESCUE BOTS are available at Toys R Us online for some reason.

EDIT: The bug seems to be fixed now.

Look like this thread is my personal blog.

Anyway, those who still don't have a ER Doubledealer can have it for only 46.70$CAN at Amazon! Obviously, for an undetermined limited time.
