Seibertron is reporting Walmart has released the Cyberverse legends Wave 1,
which includes Topspin, Skidz, Bumblebee, Crankcase and Sideswip

Gee I hope we see the legends turning up soon. I just love that packaging design, and I can't wait to try out the Bumblebee and Starscream playsets.

(moved this post to its own topic, and gave it a new title)

These have a release date of May 16th! I can't believe that stores would be getting in their stock so early, just to sit on it for over 2 months. Space is a premium in stores, so you'd expect a couple weeks early at the most. Not to mention Hasbro shouldn't be releasing stock so early and risking having some sold early, like that store did.
And that store would have been cleaned out within minutes of that Seibertron posting, and the toys were probably scalped something chronic.

More DOTM toys being found in America (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys--products-30/cyberverse-action-sets-found-at-walmart-171901/), over a month before their release date. Again it's Walmart.

The toys are now being found in back rooms of Canadian TRU stores (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys--products-30/transformers-dark-of-the-moon-wave-1-figures-ready-and-waiting-at-canadian-toys-r-us-171903/), so chances are that they would be in Australia by now as well, ready to go to store-chains that pre-ordered them at Toyfair.

More stores in America and Canada (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/transformers-dotm-figures-starting-to-appear-at-retailers/21469/) are selling the DotM toys... and now a store in Sweden (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/transformers-dark-of-the-moon-toys-released-in-sweden/21497/) has been found with them on shelves too.
