Transformers Titans Return Trypticon and Seige on Cybertron Found at Toysrus in Canada

Posted by william-james88 Aug 9, 2017 at 8:36pm CDT 21,926 views
Some big ticket items have just been found at Canadian Toysrus stores. Titan class Trypticon has been found and so has the Seige on Cybertron exclusive boxset. It's funny that even though it is a Toysrus exclusive in Canada, the packaging department still stuck "BBTS exclsuive" stickers on them, which is where this product is exclusive to in the US. That happens all the time though in Canada, with "Target Exclusive" stickers found at Toysrus (since Canada no longer has Target) so this is more the norm since the US gets at least seven times more product than Canada. The US packaging, sticker and all, is often also used for Canada.

Trypticon is $229.99 and the Seige on Cybertron set is $149.99. The sightings come from cybertron.ca users Yonoid and Downshift. Happy hunting fellow Canadians!

Damn should I keep my preorder from bbts (I don't have to pay shipping right now since it's in my pile of loot.) Or try my luck at the retail game?

I did find velocitron here but I was lucky since there was only one and I haven't seen it since.

It comes out to the same price if you buy it full price in Canada so might as well keep your bbts preorder.

NO WAY NO HOW!

Because you'll be stuck paying CUSTOMS for sure. Meaning on top of expensive shipping and exchange rates, you are SURE to be busted at customs and having to pay both taxes PLUS a 10$ "handling fee".

I say hunt in store, find it, pay it, then cancel the pre order. Only if you miss out completely on the Canadian release should you import it.

Not that easy. BBTS is releasing this set any day now so if it gets released before he finds it in stores then he has to pay the BBTS price. And yeah, if ou get cuaght by customs you pay more than finding it in stores. However, if you dot get hit, its about the same price.

To be clear I know shipping is going to be a bit but I don't pay bills or anything and I have no other hobbies so I can afford the shipping.

I'm just going to wait and ship it later I'm in no rush to get them as long as I do have them because besides those small "prime" masters and couple of legends like Beachcomber I'm not going to be buying generations once Titans Return is over since I'm only in it for the headmasters.

Unfortunately, any purchases over 50$ or something from BBTS is SURE to be hit by customs. That's why the only purchase I did from them is years is for some junk on clearance that was worth below 15$US.

I think in total it comes to $180 in total Canadian including shipping but I'm going to pay shipping much later so right now it's about $130.

I payed $200 to get Godbomber and Lio Convoy so really this isn't much for me.

Dude, you gotta learn about those Japanese stores which buy directly from Takara. I too got those but they came out to about half that all together, no joke.

Yeah I learned my lesson every other Takara product I have on preorder is from those stores don't worry but thanks for letting me know!

I just get exclusives from the place that sells them.

Since this is the Canadian Transformers thread is there anywhere I could get wave three Megatron and the wave 4 deluxes? I never saw Megatron in stores once and I passed over the wave 4 deluxes thinking I could pick them up later I do have Topspin though and I just bought Twintwist and they look great together!

Neither of those have been spotted at retail recently. Sorry.

TR deluxes are a nightmare to hunt down in Canada. It's always the same early waves. Never saw a Kup ever in store.


As for voyager Optimus and Megatron, those were "Walmart Exclusives". Never saw them at TrU. Bought Megatron but after a while I gave it at my local geek store for credits because I didn't like it.

No, not the same price at all.

You said it's $150 (rounding to nearest dollar for ease of use) Can, well, $150 Can is $117.96 US. Meanwhile it's $100 US from BBTS, quite a bit cheaper unless you do something silly with shipping.

nothing silly at all, shipping to canada is about $30 USD so it comes out to almost the exact same amount as if you were to buy it in Canada including taxes.

Nightmare is an understatement.

I had all of wave 4 in hand at Walmart but like the moron I am I put them back thinking I could get a better deal later on.

Yeah I picked up Prime at Walmart and it's where I find my Titanmasters (We are at Petro wave) since Toys R us seems to not sell them at all...like it's not even a case of they don't have them but there isn't even pegs for them, speaking of such one of our Walmarts removed the Transformers section completely...as in the put other stuff there and there was not a single Transformer in store! Now I only have one Walmart to shop at.

Take that 40$ Exclusives!!!!!

Image

The exclusives were all at my TRU next to the standard deluxes under the deluxe price tags and there were no price tags for these exclusives. So by the laws of quebec (I didnt even need to request it) I got them each for $20 CDN, which comes out to the same price americans got it at during their BOGO 40% off sale.

Crazy how I have to rely on these laws inorder to buy them for what should have been their full price.

Well played, Will!

Also, sighted Leader Megatron and Optimus at Walmart. 70$ instead of TrU's 75$. Still too much. Gonna wait.

Yeah I saw a Leader Megs today too. I double up on most things, but I got Takara's Leader Megs on pre-order. I don't care too much about covering both Hasbro and Takara on movie figures. So as much as I wanted him NAOW, I took a deep breath and put him down :lol:
