The Botbots Arcade 16-pack has been found in Hong Kong in the same week it was available on Amazon America (out of stock again).
A couple of the newly revealed Target exclusives have just been found in America - the Micromaster 10-pack for US$40 and the Cyberverse Warrior Slipstream for US$15.
And the Cyberverse Spark Armor Optimus with Ark Armor was found in Target for US$50, but it isn't noted if it is a store exclusive over there, like it is here.
The first wave of the two size classes of Spark Armor (Elite at US$25 and Battle at US$15) have been found in America.
Siege Jetfire has also been found in Canada, as were the first set of Cyberverse Tiny Changers, with the bag codes being....
Quote:
- A – Bumblebee
- B – Optimus Prime
- C – Grimlock
- D – Autobot Hot Rod
- E – Jetfire
- F – Autobot Drift
- G – Blackarachnia
- H – Decepticon Shockwave
- I – Soundwave
- J – Megatron
- K – Starscream
- L – Prowl
The third size class of the "Authentics" range has now been found in Canada. These larger sized figures are similar to Titan Changers, and include the three characters of Optimus, Bumblebee and Megatron.
They are noted as having the same price as Deluxe toys, but are closer to Leader sized.
The next wave of Studio Series Deluxe toys (Dropkick, Drift, Hightower) have now been found at Retail in America, so could start showing up here soon too (we seem to do better with the Deluxes than the other two sizes here).
New in America this week...
Cyberverse 1-step (Shockwave, Skybyte), Ultra (Alpha Trion), and Scout (Scraplet).
Target exclusive Cyberverse Cheetor w/ Sea Fury armour, for US$25. (includes photos of Cheetor in both modes out of packaging)
Rescue Bots Track Tower Bumblebee, found for US$30
Cyberverse Spark Armor Elite (Bumblebee, Megatron, Optimus Prime)
Siege Commander Jetfire found at Walmarts for US$80.
Studio Series Voyager w7 (Long Haul, KSI Boss)
Another Rescue Bots Flip Racer has appeared on Amazon America - Whirl, which looks to be a helicopter car (a new mould).
I actually bought one already and it arrived last week, because I doubted that it would show up here.
The Micromaster 10-pack is out in Canada, at ToySRUs.
And Cyberverse Ultra wave 3 Grimlock is out in America.
Out in America in the last week...
Rescue Bots Mega Mighties wave 2 (Optimus & Heatwave)
Botbots Arcade Renegades (series 3) 16 pack for US$30 at Target (also on Amazon US for US$25)
Rescue Bots Academy 4-pack (Hotshot, Wedge, Whirl, Hoist - each is a remould of a previous toy, that might not end up being released separately) for US$35.
Cyberverse Warrior class Gnaw & Deadlock.
The first wave of Cyberverse Spark Armor toys have only just been hitting American stores, and wave 2 of the Battle Class (the smaller size) has already been found, which has Shockwave and Ratchet.
The 4th wave of Micromasters (Offroad Patrol) is now out in America.
Series 3 Botbots 5-packs now out in America, so I'd expect to see them here soon as well since we got the second series at about the same time.
Studio Series SS-43 Leader Optimus with Trailer was on Amazon America about a week or two ago, and has now also been found at US Retail.
Rescue Bots Feature Bot wave 2 (larger than Rescan, smaller than Megabots) out in America - Hoist and Wedge.
Siege Ratchet was out in Asia about a month ago, and has now been found in Canada.
Canada is doing well with the exclusives, with the Reflector 3-pack just being found at ToysRUs for about AU$110.
Meanwhile, the Generations Selects Nightbird and Powerdasher Zetar (Drill-dasher) are out in Singapore.
These are now out in America at a discount store for just US$10 (about AU$15), which is really cheap for the size of them.Quote:

This reminds me of when the first Titan class toy came out - Metroplex in 2013 - BBTS got some advance stock from Hasbro to sell early at BotCon in June, before it was found at retail in July... this year's Titan toy (Omega Supreme) has arrived at BBTS and people have just been billed for it so that it can start shipping, a month before it is expected to be released in America (including Amazon).
Rescue Bots Whirl race car (rescan bot) found at US retail... a few weeks after it was available on Amazon. The new Grimlock should have been there as well (it has no robot mode, just a dino that turns into a motorcycle).
Wave 5 Cyberverse Warriors (Jetfire, remould Bumblebee, Drift) have been found at US retail.
Wave 4 Siege Warrior Thundercracker has been found at US Retail... over a month after it was available on Amazon America.
Canada again - the two Powerdashers that aren't in the 3-pack with Impactor and Mirage, have been released along with Nightbird.
Cromar (car dasher) was found at ToysRUs in Canada, while Nightbird and Zetar (drill dasher) were said to be out at EB Games in Canada this week as well (in one of the reply postings).
So it turns out EB Games Canada ends up with a lot of US store exclusives, just like ours are starting too. As well as a Powerdasher, they’ve also got Siege Ratchet in high numbers according to their website, as well as the Drift with the mini-Dinobots and the Bumblebee Vol 2 exclusive.
The Cyberverse 2-pack with the Warrior class Optimus and Starscream has been found in the UK, but both toys look to be unchanged from their original release.
Siege wave 4 Deluxe (Impactor, Barricade, Mirage) have been found in Canada... along with the Cyberverse Cheetor Spark Armor pack that is supposed to be a Target exclusive in America but was found at ToysRUs in Canada (it probably would have been a TRU exclusive in America and globally as well if it still existed).
The Cyberverse Spark Armor Cheetor is out in the US Target stores now. It didn’t have any “Target exclusive” labelling on it so i assumed it was wave 3.
Wave 2 Cyberverse Spark Armor Elite class Grimlock has now been found at American retail (we still got it first :p ).
WFC wave 4 Deluxe (Impactor, Mirage, Barricade) have been found at American retail.
The first Tiny Changers for Cyberverse have been found at American retail, a couple weeks after they came into stock at Amazon America.
Meanwhile, on Amazon America are the very rare Series 1.5 Botbots "Bakery Bytes" 5-packs (with the colour change paint on a couple of figures).
The Amazon link is here for those interested - they are US$10 each, and there are four different packs (randomly picked when purchased).
Some store exclusives have now been found at US retail - Ratchet at Walgreens (their exclusive) and the 35th anniversary Siege toys (Soundblaster, Megatron, Optimus, Bluestreak) at Walmart (their exclusives).
Apeface found at retail in Canada, which lines up with the reports of people having their Amazon America pre-orders getting charged.
Sighted in America are Siege wave 5 Deluxe (Crosshairs, Spinister) and Micromasters (Battle Squad & 2nd Cassette pair).
It looks like North America got all of their wave 5 Siege toys released from the Hasbro warehouse at the same time, as the Leader class Astrotrain has now been found over there as well.
Apeface now found at retail stores in America.Quote:

The first of the end-of-year Studio Series toys have been found at US Retail - Voyager SS-54 TF1 Megatron and SS-53 TF2 Mixmaster.
Just in time for christmas in Asia, come the newest Studio Series Deluxe toys (Arcee 3-pack, Soundwave, WW2 Hotrod and Camaro Bumblebee), and some of the new Cyberverse toys that had just been found on ebay.
Siege Battlemasters Singe and Rung were found at US Retail. Since they aren't likely to show up here, hopefully they are on Amazon America soon for those who want them (it might not be cheap, but would be one of the cheaper options).
The new wave of Cyberverse Warriors were found at US Retail, with the black redeco Hotrod and new mould Megatron.
Studio Series Deluxe wave 8 (Triplets, WW2 Hotrod, Soundwave, TF1 Bumblebee) were found at US retail, as was the Cyberverse 2-pack Optimus & Starscream (both just the same as their Warrior versions), possibly a Target exclusive in the US.
