Good news for all of our Canadian TF-Universe and TF-Animated fans. Transformers Wave 5 Deluxe figures for both series have been spotted at retail on Ontario.
With this news and the recent news about the TFCon exclusive Powered Commander set it would seem Canadian fans have something to look forward to again.

I believe they're the ones currently out right now in the US:
-Cheetor
-Autobot Hound & Ravage
-Targetmaster Cyclonus
-Starscream
-Dinobot
-Smokescreen
At least according to the BBTS http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS16249&mode=retail, although it seems some of the figures are also listed in Waves 4 and 6.

That's good news, but as far as I can tell we didn't even get the previous couple waves.

Vancouver most certainly did get Universe deluxe waves 3 and 4, though they sold out really fast. Wave 3 (Sideswipe, Ironhide, Silverstreak) hit just before Xmas during TRU's 50% off sale. Silverstreak and Sideswipe were hard to find; Ironhide was even worse. They're starting to show up again in stores now.
Wave 4 hit Vancouver a week ago (more or less) and seems to sell out within hours of being stocked. (Average sell-out time seems to be about 4 hours.) You can still find a few Cheetors, but Hound, Cyclonus, and Starscream are still bloody hard to find. Hopefully their inclusion in wave 5 will make them easier to find.

4 hours, that's crazy... I'm starting to resign myself to having to order online. What day do they generally restock? The Broadway TRU is on my way home but if they put them out in the am they'll be gone by the time I get there anyway.
I've never once seen any Universe figs past wave 1 & 2 in stores around here, and it seems like a lot of places don't even have a space for the deluxes anymore.

Animated deluxe Wave 5 = Blurr, Swindle, Blazing Lockdown, and Bumblebee (I think). Only 3 new figures in the wave.
As for stock update days, it varies by store. Bowmac TRU, Lougheed TRU, and Metrotown TRU got Universe deluxe Wave 4 on Wednesday or Thursday. Lansdowne TRU had nothing the following Sunday, but only Cheetor left by Thursday. ToysRUs.ca had all four listed on a Sunday but only Cheetor was available; don't know if the others sold out or were just added to the website by mistake. (They're gone now.)
If I can't find Hound locally by April 25, I'll just order him online with Henkei Smokescreen and Red Alert.
