The month of March has been full of rumors, and it looks like we're going out with a bang. The first of two this fine evening, Cybertron.ca - the prominent Canadian Transformers Fansite has received a report stating that Masterpiece Grimlock will be at Canadian Toys'R'Us as early as late April! For those who don't know, Canada was the first to recieve Wal*Mart Exclusive Masterpiece Skywarp and it looks like it will be the same for Grimlock.

Grimlock was reported to be a Toys'R'Us Exclusive at Toy Fair 2010, and is comprised mostly using the parts from MP-O8X King Grimlock. Feel free to check out the entire story at Cybertron.ca.

FUT THE WHUCK?

Nooooo....that means he'll follow to the states soon after.

I can't afford to get him, Leader Class Starscream and whatever else is coming our way!

I have a feeling that we're going to be inundated with new product, all at once. Like they did with Animated and Universe.

Wave after wave after wave, then a gutwrenching, ungodly lull that seemed to just roll by like frozen molasses in the middle of an Antarctic winter.

And I wouldn't be surprised if they pull the same now.

Gah.

We're in stasis lock right now. Get ready for the freaking purge of Ben 10, Star Wars and GI Joe off of the shelves. It's Transformers time.

You are correct.

I looked at the planograms for this current season and TF has a big push. As big as Iron Man. (which is odd, considering our movie was LAST year.)

With Summer coming soon, plus HFTD and Generations due, I'd say the beginning of Summer should hurt our wallets quite a bit.

December, January, February is the Winter reset.
March, April, May is the Spring reset.
June, July, August is the Summer reset.
September, October, November is the Fall reset.

We're now in the Spring reset and have quite a bit of shelf space allocated to our needs and desires. I'd imagine it could possibly be twice as big in a couple of months.

Considering as how Skywarp just hit my area in FRICKIN' JANUARY (at FULL PRICE, no less) I think I have some time...

Will get two (open one) as the cost for the domestic is around half as much as the JPN version and since I already have MP-08 and MP-08X.
