While the US is finally able to get Sixshot (albeit online), that leader has been out in Canada for a while and with wave 4 of Titans Return creeping up everywhere it was only a matter of time before we got our first sighing of the Leader figure for that wave. Sky Shadow was found at an Ontario Walmart according to a tweet from Ryan Sheehey.

What is odd about all this is that while he appears at a Canadian Walmart before the US even sees Sixshot at retail, Sixshot has yet to appear at Canadian Toysrus stores. So far, in North America, only Walmart Canada has recieved either Sixshot or Sky Shadow at brick and mortar. So, how many of you would actually buy this toy on site full price if you saw it in Walmart today?

Not me. Too big and expensive for a character I care nothing about other than he's previously used retools of Thunderwing toys.

Even worse, Soundwave finally made a retail appearance in the Chicago area this week, while Sixshot finally came available online. I got my Soundwave from BBTS with Takara Computron, so he was available WAAAY earlier online than in store. So by that measure, Sixshot will finally hit retail stores in June, Sky Shadow will be available online for the US in about June and might finally hit stores before Christmas. :HEADHURTS:

Considering Walmart in the U.S. has reduced Leaders to just under $40.00 I totally would..

Still haven't seen a Soundwave in the wild, and am still seeing CW Skywarps...

Comment by Evil Eye Feb 16, 2017

Eh. Not for me. I don't care enough about Black Shadow to want this, and to be honest, for Overlord I'm tempted to save up for Carnifex instead- he just looks so good. I know it's unfair to compare a retail Hasbro figure to a niche high-end 3P figure, but Overlord deserves no less. Now granted I have zero personal connection to Overlord (never watched Masterforce or read IDW) but c'mon, it's OVERLORD. Only the best for him.

Now a Leader figure I DO want at some point is Blaster. He just looks like a lot of fun, and if I'm honest the size doesn't bother me. A shame the only really good "cassette" mold at the moment is Rewind, but hey, he can only hold one at a time anyway.

Nah i'd rather wait for Overlord &/or Dai Atlas

Thanks for all the answers guys! (though Dalton, you dont feel too bummed about Sixshot to buy another leader figure full price?)

I kid you not, Blaster is by far the best Leader Class TF from Titans Return, that is a smart choice right there. And stripes isnt that terrible, but I wouldnt say he is worth full price.

I feel bummed about Sixshot, but from reviews I was having doubts. Reviews so far have given me real hope for the figure being really cool, and black/red/silver is pretty much my favorite color scheme, and I love the duocon gimmick. He's awesome to me

If $40 is the new normal that Walmart charges for TR Leaders, how is that not Full Price?...you related your story specifically to on site at B&M, and even more specifically Walmart... considering there are possibly only 3 B&M places that will ever have this in the U.S. I chose the one you specified... If you ask me will I pay Full Price ($45) at Target or ($46) at TRU...I may have to think it over...

I misunderstood, I thought you meant that the $40 was a special price at walmart and not the full price.
In any case, I was being cheeky, its a $5 difference it would still count as pretty damn near full price.

After getting Sentinel Prime first and finding him mediocre, then finally getting Astrotrain and seeing how awesome he would have been if I'd bought him first, I've decided to stop buying the pre tools till after I get the character I want.

So no Megatron, no Optimus, and no on this guy.

ME!

I like him more than Sixshot's design. Waiting for figures to hit my area retail has become terrible. So like Sixshot I'll be grabbing this Phase Sixer online.

I saw Soundwave at my local Walmart just before Christmas. I'd already managed to snag him at A3&U for $29 when they were having their Christmas sales. That same local Walmart, by the way, just restocked 4 cases of Wave 1 Leaders a week or two ago.

What the HELL is up with Hasbro's distribution for this line?? Never has a full wave assortment managed to make it onto shelves at the same time during the ENTIRE run of Titans Return. Soundwave, that I mentioned above, he showed up a few weeks AFTER the one and only time I've seen Wave 3 deluxes at any retail. And now Wave 4 deluxes are starting to hit here and there, and we STILL have barely seen Sixshot, and only at online retailers at that.

Well, one cool thing is...I guess *if* as we speculate Overlord is based on Sky Shadow, and you have them both, you can mix/match torso's & legs...

It's the other way around: Sky Shadow is based on Overlord. Not only is the Titan Master based on one of his engines (the female one if I may add), Overlord (and not Sky Shadow) was the one teased at BotCon 2016:

He also has a product code: C2388, with Sky Shadow's C1104.

I would ask "Why did they wait so long to release Overlord?", but that would be too obvious.

So as we head into (hopefully) our next big set of reveals in just two days, I just want to say how very impressed I am at Hasbro's ability to keep things under wraps this time around. Considering that the last big set of reveals was pretty underwhelming since we'd been spoiled on most of them by leaks, I honestly can't think of a single thing we're predicting to be shown at this one that has been leaked or otherwise revealed beforehand. (Disregarding Trypticon of course, but even he was revealed both officially and intentionally!)

Well there's Windblade (Out of possibly the Highbrow mold), and Misfire.

I think they mean outside of rumour lists. Which we always have.
