Am I the only one who couldn't give crap about Botbots?

You're not the only one. Still, there's enough people who are into the little guys so the line keep going.
Speaking of TrU, I'm glad I finally found ER leader Optimus Prime. I'm surprised to say that he's well worth the full 80$can with taxes.
I'm still using the Club R warranty so that if he get on sale in the next 90 days after purchase, I can get the difference refunded.

Just laugh at them.
The rainmakers are on shelves still, but at the regular 100$can plus taxes. They'll be on some final sale soon enough.

That's a terrific price though since that's the old voyager price an not the new one.

That, I know. But the set went down to 75$ often enough. That sale price is still too much for someone like me who already have his fill of seekers.

lmao "shelves are full."
Guarantee this is not the photo you will see at 90% of the stores in the country. That's not a TRU thing or their fault. TF distribution has been rotten for the past year+ at all outlets.

You can say that again. Especially for my local Walmart where it's Tumbleweed City.

My local TrU didn't really had that much new stuff. It was a miracle that I got a ER Optimus. There was just one among at least 8 ER Astrotrains. As for Studio Series, they are still stuck at least 3 waves behind Walmart. This is ridiculous.

What's the point of being full of old stuff?
Sure it's nice for the latecomers, but still. Eh, just a few months back my TrU was FULL of stock... That is, TLK "premier" deluxes and TLK "premier" voyager Hounds.

Having inventory is nice, wish TRU was still around here in southern USA... mostly just jealous of that Omega Supreme on the very end though, would like to get a nice price on one of them.

Siege battlemasters are on sale at walmart for 0.02$
Re: Toysrus Reopens across Canada with New Sightings

More or less true. This is what I call a "stealth clearance". And so far, those kind of clearance are independent from each Walmarts. Last time when I bought a bunch of Battlemasters at 1$ each at a Walmart, they were at full price in another Walmart the day after.
So unless it's "official rollback", all clearance sales are independent.

While there are several figures found recently in Canada that have yet to hit the US, there are others that are really late.
We'll start with those. The Studio series deluxe wave that includes Offroad Bumblebee, Shatter and Roadbuster has been found at brick and mortar retail. They were found at Walmarts across the country with the specific sighting below coming from Montreal, Canada.
The voyager wave with Sentinel Prime has yet to be seen and the previous voyager wave with Mixmaster was never spotted at big box retail (just Amazon and briefly EB Games). So if any of you Canadians spot those voyagers at Walmart or Toysrus, let us know.
There have been many new sightings for Earthrise. All the following come from boards posts on Cybertron.ca.
Skylynx was found in an Ontario EB Games by AgeofTransformers. They also found leader class Doubledealer at Walmart.
Rung and Slitherfang were found in an Ontario Walmart by Transbot90210.
A collectable store found in Ottawa and Montreal called CMD got their shipments for Earthrise Scorponok and Skylynx as well. That was reported by Huasotron 75.

I can confirm some of this. I received today my Skylynx from CMD store in Ottawa. He is amazing but I should have waited to find him at EB Games. I also saw and bought Shatter and Roadbuster from EB games in Montreal sunday.
