It took a looooooooong time for Canada to catch up to the US for the Studio Series and Siege line but that has changed the past month. Here is a rundown of sightings from the past month:
Studio Series Deluxe wave with Clunker Bee, Sideswipe and Barricade at Walmart
Studio Series Deluxe wave with Scrap Metal and Shatter at Toysrus
Studio Series Voyager wave with Bumblebee Optimus and Rampage at Walmart
Siege Deluxe wave 2 at EB Games
Siege Voyager wave 2 at EB Games
All deluxes are $30 while voyagers are $40.
Walmarts have also been getting the Generations Cyber Battalion Jetfire, Sideswipe, Prowl and Shockwave toys. These are Walmart exclusive in Canada and $20 a piece.
Walmarts have also updated their toy aisle to include an Easter/Spring themed Hasbro display which feature Transformers among their other brands.

The only new thing in Montreal is what is in the picture. You really want those Cyber Battalion figures?

Maybe.
I saw the new SS deluxe figures, but no Clunker Bee. Also, no new voyagers either. My Walmart sure may have had everything, but they barely stock so any new things get sold out instantly.

When you have Siege & Studio Series right next to Cyberverse why would any sane person choose Cyberverse?

Animated was the worst! Even worse than Beast Machines. Peaks & valley's. Animated & Beast Machines were the valley's, the lowest points of the franchise. Now we have RID & Cyberverse. Another low point. Thank God we have Siege & Studio Series to even things out. My Walmart put all the Cyberverse garbage in the clearance section & it still won't sell. Mixing Transformers with Looney Tunes or Spongebob's animation style just doesn't work.

Animated was awesome and Prime was an amazing show. I gave up after RiD's first season and after watching the abomination that was the Machimina Combiner Wars shorts, I gave up entirely on all shows.
For now, all that matter is the toys. Fiction be damned.

I bought some. And here is why (this goes out to all the Canadian lurkers our there). While they are of characters I dont need, I do intend on getting Soundwave and Skybite when they come out. So, since they are all the same number at TRU, I am buying some warriors now and will exchange them for the toys I want later. I wasnt greedy, just bought 3. I dont know how many I will want, even for 5$.
Reminds me of the time the beast hunter deluxes were 5$ in canada, I bought almost all of them (but didnt get Prowl because I am an idiot who was thinking "you dont really need them all do you?" )

So, anyone else getting a second warrior Bee to customize into Cyberverse Glyph? There were enough good sales on Cyberverse last year that I already got my spare, so I'm just one batch of blue dye and a robo-boob-job away!
There, that should make the collective inappropriate comments eclectic enough to get this thread right back on track. Now if only Amazon would start using their Seinfeld names again...

Cyberverse: Walmart has the latest 1 steps which include Prowl, the new Megatron and Optimus. They also have the new scouts which include Ratchet and Shadow Striker.
Siege: There have been sightings of Galaxy Prime at both Walmart and Toysrus. It is not in Walmart's database though, so buying him has been trickier there. All of Wave 2 has been found at Walmart now including the micromasters, battlemasters, deluxes and voyagers. Though not all provinces have found all these sizes.
Studio Series: While the DOTM Megatron and Jetfire leader figures were available much earlier on at EB Games they finally found their way to Walmart the past few weeks and are getting restocked.
Ectotron: EB Games has this toy in stores for $60 CAD. They are the exclusive retailer for this figure.

If I see it live, maybe it will be an impulse purchase.

It's probably no rush man, it's only just coming out at Canadian retail, and most pre-orders outside Canada aren't even due for 2 more months!

It is good, but for the cash needed, there's more important things right now. Beside, I bet there will be overstock even for him and he will be back on sale anyway. Like Trypticon and Fortmax before him.

It will be 40% off come black friday, I can wait. Jetfire though, I might bite.

I guess the big disappointment for me is the Prime with Ark. He looks like he actually IS the size I thought they all were, and with no articulation from the waist down. I'm thinking I will pick up a few small ones and pass on him, since the price will be outlandish.
Grahhhh. I want that Ark!

Pretty much this. Cyberverse has been relegated to trunk of the car by almost everyone, and unlike RiD2015, it deserves it save for a couple potential few

The fact that the Cyberverse thread barely moved when the "first world sighting of the Armor guys" happen is proof enough.

The exclusive Battle Damaged Studio Series Revenge of the Fallen voyager Megatron was also found at Toysrus for $39.99 CAD. For those curious about other Toysrus sightings, the giant Cybverser Ark Power Prime was also found along with the latest Marvel Legends two packs like Ironman / Ironspider, Korg / Grandmaster and Colossus / Juggernaut (while we are talking about Hasbro exclusives at Toysrus Canada).

I mean, I haven't seen that one yet, whereas everything else is at least in every store, if not shelfwarming.

It's at least that. Luckily, my raincheck is still valid.

Shelfwarming at every Target I go to? I mean, maybe it's too soon to say shelfwarming, but after a month or so, the same 8 Battle Damaged Megs are still at every Target I visit.

If it's sacrilege, I'm in the same boat as you. I want that 2-pack. and I have the rest of those in the forms I'd like to have them

Micromasters are 6$ each in canada so this makes sense.

No. They are 6.50$ each. So we actually save a bit.
I'd like that set, but not enough to pay full price. If it come on sale, say for around 50$, I'd bite.

Now on true clearance at Walmart for 34$CAN!
Posted by william-james88 on August 18th, 2019 @ 7:25pm CDT
Canada is almost up to date on Cyberverse though. The bigger Spark Armour Optimus, Megatron and BUmblebee were found at Toysrus. The giant Ark Power Optimus was found a while ago at Toysrus but it is now available at Walmart as well.
As for Studio Series, the deluxe wave with car mode Dropkick, High Tower and Drift was found at Walmart.

TrU, appart Battle-Damaged SS ROTF Megatron and the Cyberverse figures, there's nothing. Just a single Siege Prowl, Chromia, and Ironhide.
JFC, Laval SUCK for toy hunting.

Those were all Toysrus sightings. Cyberverse scout class Scraplet was found at a Real Canadian Superstore in Winnipeg. While Omega Supreme was shipped out to Canadians who preordered him on Toysrus, there has not been any extra stuck to order since.
The sightings are from me as well as Cybertron.ca members C-Spray and Matt McNally.

Not really. Its 3 30$ deluxes with an exclusive deco/accessories/packaging. Sounds about par. Would have been 120$USD plus club membership and shipping and customs if it was like exclusives of the past.
