Transformers Siege Greenlight up for Preorder on Amazon.ca for High Price

Posted by william-james88 Jan 4, 2019 at 11:07am CST 34,757 views
Transformers Siege Greenlight will be released sooner than later, especially compared to exclusives from previous years. We have our first preorder up on Amazon.ca revealing two important points: who the exclusive retailer is and what the price point will be.

Now we know that it will be an Amazon exclusive. While we only know for sure that this will be the case in Canada, it stands to reason that it will be an Amazon exclusive elsewhere to, which is great news since those are always the easiest exclusives to acquire, compared to retailers that are only found in some countries.

We also get a clue on the price point, which is rather high. Right now, the preorder is for CDN$ 59.51, which is $45 USD. Now, it has happened in the past that preorders on Amazon have a much higher price than the eventual retail price so this may just be that again. You can click here to be brought to the listing.

Preordered. It really, really hurts ye olde wallet but it's worth it for an obscure female character's first ever toy. :)

Those really are some lovely shades of green and I like the matching paint on Sparklefox there. Really excited to get that fire effect, it's teh hotness! I'm hoping the US Amazon has the same pricing as the CW/TR/PotP exclusives :ic$:

Interesting remolding on Greenlight and Chromia, seems neither's head folds away :-?

Sorry, not paying $60 for a Deluxe and Battle Master. Don't care if it's exclusive. Especially since Greenlight is a repaint of Moonracer who I own.

If the Greenlight pack is exclusive to Amazon, I think it would be closer to the $25.00-$30.00 USD release like last years exclusives (Blastoff, Repugnus, Counterpunch) once it's finally out.

I think it's just mistransformed. The chest plate is still attached to the waist by a hinge. The only purpose that hinge served previously was to allow the chest to open so the head could be tucked away.

I really hope they get the leaders in before the free shipping over $14.99 and the 15% off ends.


Me too. Before the Listings disappeared, when you would search Siege, you would get the 12 Listings for the items currently out. When the Siege listings disappeared for a little bit, searching Siege got you to a weird 1/2 loaded page with 14 results before moving to the "Oops, something went wrong" page with Mr. Potato Head.

I suspect the leaders will be up soon, but I also suspect they will be on Jan 7th, after the current discounts run out.


When that was happening, you just had to scroll down to see what the 14 results were. It was beyblade if I recall correctly.

HA, wouldn't be the first time official pics were mistransformed. They did remove the wrist swivels though, which seems like an odd omission. It doesn't really seem to affect the look of the alt-mode and I wonder if it was to clear up room for things to peg into the back of the car?

Yeah, I'm not sure why the changed the wrists either. They looked weird folded against the back of her vehicle mode, but do they really look any better now?

In a few days the US Amazon will have it listed for $25-$30. I can wait.

D@mn, Amazon has been the devil lately when it comes to TF figures. Even in the US.

I know its early, but that Siege Prime so far is my toy of 2019. What I find suepr cool is that while it probably wont remain that when we get to the end of th year, that means there will be even better stuff to come out, which gets me very excited. Because with no exageration, that Siege Prime is one of the best Transformers figures I have handled in years, especially when we look at mainline figures made for mass appeal.

At first I didn't want him because the truck have a "hat". But I now want to have him somewhat. Plus the "méli-mélo" sale is back at TrU. :-?

The truck mode is hideous, but the robot mode is pretty good. Same with Megatron. If they look good in hand, I'll get them.

Got mine today from HTS but have been too busy adulting to open him. You've got me very excited and I hope I can agree with you ;)^

Megs was in the box as well, but that's for layers in the week. I like to space things out, build anticipation, fully enjoy the other thing I've opened. Still need to open Skytread, but if Hound and Sideswipe are any indication then I'm in for a good time. Still need to track down Cog though.

They're very impressive in hand and kinda heavy for their size. Unless I'm wrong Megatron is noticeably heavier than Prime.

I don't even mind the splatter paint battle damage.

Yeah Megatron does have a sort of War Within Titanium vibe.

War Within Titanium Megatron is a decent figure. It’s that first Titanium tank Megatron that is probably the worst Transformer ever made. He was a floppy mess.
