USA and Canada Links for New Walmart Exclusive Transformers Toys from their Collector Con

Probably will regret not ordering Hound when I had the chance, but I got the two Legacy figures I wanted... hopefully. Praying to Primus that Walmart doesn't burn me like they did Galaxy Shuttle.

"Pre shipment info for Galaxy Shuttle has been submitted"
*Never actually left Walmart*

Thanks for the heads up

That was quick. Switched Cloudcover from HasbroPulse to Walmart.ca.

I'll still wait on Toxie.

That was for Pulse Premium members and it sold out 2 minutes before being open to the general public.

Wow - guess people really want that Shrapnel. I can only imagine what it'll be like when Bombshell is announced...

BBTS has Shrapnel up for Pre Order

That core size "Bomb-Burst" everyone was so impressed with is available again on Hasbro Pulse! Not sure if it requires their premium membership to order, but it's at least viewable!

If you have the means, hurry before they're sold out again!

Armada Prime is up for preorder as expected today on Hasbro Pulse, TFSource and BBTS.

If anybody finds him on Amazon.com please post a link, because I can't find him there.

Turns out Legacy Commander Armada Optimus Prime is very very popular among fans. He is currently sold out on Hasbro Pulse, BBTS and other online retailers. Amazon lagged at posting a listing and so, since fans purchased it elsewhere already, he is still in stock there. Below you will find the links for him on Amazon.com and Amazon.ca. He is around $90 USD and $135 CAD (which is over $10 more than he should be when looking at current exchange rates). He is bound to sell out there too as he is currently a number 1 seller.

Armada Prime earned that popularity

That 10$ markup for Canadians could be worse. The thing could be at Toys R Us.
Beside, if we import it from the USA, we have to pay for shipping so.

Anyway, for Armada Optimus I'm not taking any chances and I will not wait for a sale. I'm preordering right now as I did for Leader Armada Megatron.

Thanks for the alert!
I wasn't sure on this one, but I caved and pre-ordered it.

I'm glad Armada Prime is still available those that want it via Amazon. But I think despite it's initial success we will still have to wait until the toy is actually out to know how successful it is. But the signs seem good. In fact every CC has sold well and been a challenge to obtain except for Kingdom Rodimus, which actually was discounted up to and beyond 50% off at one point. Not saying it was a bad toy, but perhaps TT / Hasbro just produced more of that one for some reason.

Jetfire and Skylynx had multiple production runs, and from the online community comments, it appears a Motor Master reissue would probably be welcome as well, though it hasn't happened yet.

Has anyone else actually read what this Optimus Prime is best seller at?

It's number one for Wii games.

It's number one for PSP games.

And it's number eleven for all of video games, down from number eight yesterday.

The only actual video game to outsell Legacy Armada Optimus Prime is Zelda. Making it the number two best selling actual video game on all of Amazon. So that would also make it the number one XBox Series game, XBox One game, XBox 360 game, PS5 game, PS4 game, PS3 game, PS Vita game, Wii U game, 3DS game and DS game. That's rather impressive. Only a Switch game can outsell it and even then, only Zelda.

Is there a Webdiver or Daigunder feature to this release that hasn't been reported on yet to have it listed as a video game on Amazon? I mean, it's not that they took too long to get the listing up, it's just that I was checking in the action figure category and couldn't find it so I went to Pulse instead. If I had known to check the video games, I might have found it quicker. It's not on the featured Transformers search where it should be at the top above Cyber Commander Optimus Prime who's always up there for some reason along with Cyber Commander Bumblebee and the Cyber Battalion two packs and a bunch of Rescue Bots listings. Only the newest Generations figures make it up here like the newest wave of Armada Megatron, Devcon and the rest.

I just had a chuckle about it when I finally found the listing for it the other day and read what it was a best seller for. I realized why I hadn't found it before then after I read it.

I preordered not only due to the popularity of this figure but I watched a video from Nerdzoic the other day about a very unconfirmed rumor/speculation of Hasbro cutting back on production runs so as to not have so many figures left that go on sale. I mean, this was after a huge Black Friday sale and then still have so much old stock available after the warehouse sale only three months later. It's pretty crazy how many are still available for some figures after both those sales. So I wasn't taking chances with this one and snagged that preorder pretty quick.

Good thing I got my preorder in. This guy looks totally worth the commander price

That rumor comes up every so often, especially with the Titan Class figures. You have to remember though that "Hasbro Pulse" =/= "Hasbro". Pulse is a third party company working with Hasbro. They are basically the same as TFSource or BBTS just with a direct phone line. It is possible Hasbro Proper expected a Big Box retailer to make an additional order for stock that didn't pan out, or more likely that Meijer and Target are placing smaller orders based on previous sales numbers, but I wouldn't put a huge amount of stock into the rumor. At the end ofvthe day, I would stick with "does this look like a figurevthat is worth $89.99 to me? And if the answer is no wait for a sale

I had been checking Amazon daily since his official reveal. I got mine. I have and like the original, but this update just looks so good. I guess I can keep the original combined with Jetfire.

As for Kingdom Rodimus being discounted, it might also have to do with him not selling so well due to the limited-use trailer driving the price to that class.

It's not the first time, there were some Kingdom figures that were the best sellers in shoes. Amazon gets their wires crossed pretty badly sometimes.

Not true, Hasbro owns Pulse. Hasbro hosts Pulsecon and owns the Pulse social media channels including the YouTube channel where they reveal new figures. It's even on the Hasbro corporate website as one of their brands.



I think the confusion comes from them using a Shopify store front, but Shopify is just a tool that anyone can pay to use, they don't actually own the store.
