Your mileage may vary from location to location but t seems Toysrus Canada is currently restocking their Transformer section for the holliday season, making it look more full than it has been all year. You can see the images taken yesterday at Anjou Toysrus in Montreal, Canada, to see how Transformers have taken back their entire aisle. Product from the latest waves of all three sublines are there along with platinum releases, exclusives and Movie Masterpiece toys. While the US seems to have made its peace with the possibility of losing Toysrus, the images below will show you how much Canadian collectors will lose if this establishment goes under.

Overlord, Sixshot, Windblade, Misfire, Trypticon, MP Movie Optimus...

Well damn, son, there goes that paycheck! :lol:

Overlord? RID Bludgeon? Wave 2 LK Deluxe? and Trypticon? WOW! Wish I lived near that Toys R Us!

I'm quite jealous of what I see. Wave two TLK deluxes, RID Twinferno, Bludgeon, Thermidor, Twintwist, Windblade, Misfire, Overlord. Hell, just the fact that there's stuff to look at is making me jealous. However, I do have a Chaos on Velocitron set or two still at mine.

How??? The stores by me don't have Misfire, Twin Twist, Six Shot, Windblade, or Galvatron. If I found any of those, or Chaos on Velocitron, I would be a VERY satisfied person.

Once again, Willy shows us why Canada is better.

I'm almost surprised they didn't have some TR Arcees and Grotusques in stock.

Anyone spotted TLK Nitro in Canada yet? Still haven't seen TR octane or blitzwing yet either, but surprisingly found them on Amazon.ca today at regular retail price... jumped on that pretty fast.

The new voyagers were also at TrU. However, TrU and Walmart still don't have TR Slugslinger yet. Fortunately I could get it at my local independent store but for 5$ more. No regrets though.

This reminds me of the good old days.. an entire aisle for TFs, one for Star Wars, another one for GI Joe, another one for He-Man....
I wouldn’t count US Toys R Us out, however, they’re simply declaring bankruptcy to free themselves from the crippling $5B that’s been around their neck since the company was sold in the early 00s. They’re not done yet, as can be seen by Hasbro and others sticking with them.

Oh man, oh man... so many figures that I still need just sitting there on the pegs. Come on Misfire, Twin Twist, Windblade... get in my cart. Oh, is that you Overlord? You come on in as well... *sigh*

Why must my TRU torture me with their silly little five foot section of shelfwarmers? :-/

That's very tru about the RID warriors. I don't mean to scare anyone but these have literally been found everywhere except the US.

My pictures show Bludgeon, Thermidor and Twinferno in Canada

but here is also a pic from the UK

from Singapore

From Australia

from Malaysia

And on and on. TF fan Nevermore, who follows this closely wrote the following to sum it up:

At this point, [they've] been released in pretty much every country except for the US: Asia (Singapore, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Taiwan, Malaysia), Canada, Australia, Europe (the UK and Germany)... we all have seen a retail release of his wave, but it's still AWOL as far as US retail is concerned.

So yes, people can literally say that these toys are released everywhere except the US. It is entirely possible (though nothing is confirmed) that they may be skipped due to them seemingly being the last warriors in the line. Just like Skylynx in CW. But that is all speculation.

Yes, I noticed Bludgeon in your pics. And guess what! After months of never restocking anything, my Walmart just loaded up on the Blastwave/Starscream wave. :shock:

And the day after the 1st US sighting of Overlord, my Walmart got 4 Sixshot's. :BANG_HEAD:

And nobody ever restocks Titans Return deluxes anymore. Not even Walgreens. I was hoping to find Misfire by now but I give up. When I get paid next week I'm ordering him online. This is such bull****! :BOOM:

All big collector boxes are NOT in store. ONLINE only. Because those are expensive items and the toy section always get trashed by savages. Anyway, shipping is usually free for orders that are 50$ or more. So you're not losing anything. Unless you are homeless and/or don't have a credit card.

A new sale starts today at Toysrus.ca (and in stores) for Titans Return Leaders at $39.87 and Robots in Disguise One Steps at $5.87. These are the lowest prices for the respective products so far this year. The sale ends in one week from today.

As far as sightings go, Leader Dragonstorm has been found at both Toysrus and Walmart, along with the Titans Return Slugslinger wave. The third wave of deluxes from Transformers the Last Knight have been found at Toysrus and can currently be purchased online, as we show below.

TR Seaspray made it's way to Walmart.

TrU have TR Blitzwing and Octone, but they are rare. Happy hunting!

The latest wave of TlK deluxes are at TrU as well. Crosshair, Strafe, and some other reprint.

Robots in Disguise Legion Cyclonus and Heatseeker had yet to be found in North America, until now. While they have not hit the US yet (with no pre-orders listed either), they have been found at Toysrus in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Hopefully that is a sign that they will be found in the US soon, though with the Bludgeon wave still MIA months after sightings from around the globe, you can never be sure. Good luck on the hunt if these interest you and stay tuned for a pictorial review that shall be posted shortly.

Platinum Edition RID Grimlock and Bumblebee, bought from one of my local Winners' for 40 bucks. Also, there's like 10 or more Winners' in my city, and there's reports of them hitting almost every one of them so they're plentiful!

Good news for those still looking for a decently sized Robots in Disguise Grimlock. The Transformers Platinum Edition set which featured a slight redeco of the Takara voyager Robots in Disguise Grimlock and deluxe Bumblebee has been found at Winners, one of the main market six stores in Canada. It has been found throughout the country, but the particular sighting below comes from fellow Seibertronian Shajaki, in Edmonton, Alberta. The set is only $40 CAD ($31.33 USD) which is a far cry from the $80 Walmart had been charging. Good luck to everyone on their hunt!

The two holiday catalogs from Toysrus and Walmart are out now in Canada and both feature our favourite brand prominently. Walmart mainly shows Transformers Toys from the Last Knight with a series of rollback we previously listed in detail here. The Toysrus catalogue shows some love to Titans Return as well with the prices on deluxes and voyagers reduced by $3 and $5 respectively. As for the Last Knight toys, it seems Toysrus is on par with the price drops from Walmart, making the prices similar to what they would have been before the price jump for the movie line. You can click each picture below to be brought to the respective holiday guides.
The Walmart catalog also confirms that the Titan hero figures from Transformers The Last Knight were Walmart exclusives all along. The Walmart catalog can be used for price matching at Toysrus and vice versa (though Walmart appears to be pickier with the toy needing to be the same as the image in the flyer). All the best on your holiday shopping.

Good. Glad to see a lot TF stuff particularly TLK but would be nicer if it was new Bee rather than Wave 1 Bee shown there. Anyways christmassy christmas. I've deliberately held off on the TLK Blu Ray so it gives someone else (one individual in particular) something easy to obtain to get me as a present cos apparently I'm a really 'tricky bastard to buy a gift for'.

Not "around". They WERE. And those TrU exclusive deluxes, Megatron and Skullitron? 40$CAN. Each. (Glad I got both at less than 19$CAN each due to a price fokkop and Québec's accurate pricing law).

yes it was, but there was probably lots of news that day and when you logged on it was probably gone by then. Plus it was in the TLK toy thread.

That 25E deluxe TLK Megatron amount to 37.57$CAN. A bad price, yes, but ironically 1.43$CAN CHEAPER than the original regular price.
Regular TLK deluxes are 30$CAN while other deluxes from other lines are 20$CAN. Still, it seem it's the end of the TLK line and both Walmart and TrU are putting their regular TLK deluxes at 20$CAN.
