Studio Series 70 B127, 71 Dino and 72 Starscream seen in Singapore.
The small Authentics Barricade toy has been found in America, just a week after it was found here in Australia.
And just a few days later, the larger Authentics figure of Shockwave was also found in America.
Since we don't appear to have any stores selling the larger Authentics at the moment, this might not show up here.
Wave 3 Kingdom has suddenly shown up in America... a little early as well... with VOY Rhinox found in Arizona.
And some nice in-hand photos, including a group shot of all the Maximals released so far, which is now only missing Tigatron from season 1 of the cartoon. (the Predacons are still a long way from completing their first season cast, with just Megatron and Blackarachnia so far and Scorponok just around the corner... still missing Tarantulas, Waspinator, Terrorsaur and Inferno).
Wave 3 Kingdom now at Singapore specialty toy shops (The Falcon's Hangar and Robo Robo) but not yet general retail.

It makes you wonder why there was an embargo date on wave 2, but not wave 3. I guess when they get to the tail end of a toyline, they don't really care much, as they are already looking to lock in the next toyline with retailers.
Wave 3 RED (Bumblebee & Starscream) now out at retail in Canada.
I guess with Kingdom wave 3 popping up in Europe, Asia and Australia, Hasbro America have decided to just release them early as well, with the rest of wave 3 joining Voyager Rhinox from a couple weeks ago.
Core class - Leader class - Deluxe class (although, for some strange reason, solid cases of Wingfinger was found at Walmart... which even had the toy name printed on the master carton of 8 units, as its only contents)
The newest wave of Studio Series Leaders (Grindor and Slug) are now out in America.
Netflix Wave 3 Voyagers have popped up in the US, https://news.tfw2005.com/2021/07/04/...-retail-436805

Meanwhile in Singapore, the Kingdom Earthmode Red Alert that some people managed to score from a particular online store over there.
Vintage Beast Wars Cheetor and Optimus Primal have also shown up in Canada (Megatron was found a few days ago).
Maybe these are being released in separate cases, as they are showing up on their own, not with their size-class mate (Rattrap hasn't been reported yet).
Apparently, the second wave of Cyberverse Battle Call Troopers (Megatron and Starscream) have only just recently been released/found in America... some 8 months after they were found here in Australia, November last year.
Cyberverse Tiny Changers series 4... new to American retail. They were out in Europe and Canada at the end of last year.
Meanwhile, Australia didn't get any of the four series of Cyberverse Tiny Changers, or the last three series of the Movie Tiny Changers.
The Kingdom Titan Class Ark toy has just shown up in Canada at ToysRUs as well... only a couple weeks to go for its official global release.
More of the Dinobot Adventures toys (using old Rescue Bots moulds) have been found in Canada - the Optimus and Bumblebee that are packaged with "Minicon" weapons.
Rattrap has been sighted in Canada, along with two Buzzworthy Bumblebee combiner 2-packs that have redecos of RID Crash Combiner toys.Quote:

Autobot Ark and Rodimus Prime (which we saw first at BigW, but other retailers can start selling it soon here as well).
Canada just got that giant cargo plane Optimus toy that is currently at BigW, that might have been part of the Rescue Bots toyline before it ended.
The newest wave of Studio Series Voyagers have been found in America - Mv6 Thrust and 1986 Wreck-Gar.
Kingdom T-Wrecks has also been found at US Retail.
The MPM-12 Optimus from the Bumblebee Movie was scheduled to be out in August, and has just been found at retail in America... so could be out here soon too. (the JP release is in October)
The four vintage Beast Wars toys are now out in the UK, so it shouldn't be too much longer before they show up at BigW here.
The 3rd wave Netflix "Leader" pack is now out in America.
GEN Selects Artfire is still about a week away from official release, so it isn't surprising that it is now out in Asia (Singapore).
Also, apparently the yellow Balvintron Soundwave is also out in Asia, a little over a month before its official American release through the NTWK app.
The UK has now got the 3rd wave of Kingdom in stores - Deluxe, Voyager, Commander Rodimus and Titan Ark.
And the new Cyberverse Ultimate sized "Roll and Convert" are out in America.
Out at US Retail are more of the "new" Cyberverse season 4 toys - Deluxe (Cheetor), Tiny Turbo Changers (all re-releases), and 1-steps (also all re-releases).
Road Rage and the Sideswipe/Skywarp 2-pack are now out in Asia. The 2-pack is really early there, as it had a December release on EB and Amazon here.
These appeared here at Toyworld earlier this year, and now it seems that they have been shrunken down to be even smaller "world's smallest" figurines, to be packed within multi-packs of different iconic toys, a bit like Shopkins mutli-packs.Quote:

SS Wave 13 deluxes now out in USA, https://news.tfw2005.com/2021/09/12/...-retail-440920
When are we expecting to see Jolt?
We should see the next wave here (Jolt, Bee & Sam, Gnaw)... it is just a waiting game, as the other sizes were late (Voyagers & Leaders).Quote:

Also, the wave 4 Kingdom Deluxe Waspinator and Shadowpanther pair are also out in America.
Another early release toy is SS-78 TF2 Sideswipe... found in America just days after the previous Deluxe wave was found at US retail.
It skips over SS-77 grey offroad Bumblebee, which could well be an exclusive, or will come out in the next wave with SS-79 and Perceptor.
The four Vintage Beast Wars toys are now in Walmart stores in America.
Someone on TFW is claiming that the retailer order sheets note SS-77 has "fan channel exclusive" in the product descriptions... so if that is true, it won't show up here unless someone like EBGames gets it.Quote:

Looking at some of the photos, it's like being back in the late 1990s with mostly beast mode toys filling the shelves.
The wave 2 Cyberverse 2-pack combiner is now out in America as well.... as is the next wave of Cyberverse 1-steps (which appears to all be re-released figures in new packaging).
Also out in Asia is the first of the Japanese Premium Finish figures that were scheduled to be released in Japan at the end of October (along with the VW Bumblebee).
Another new Cyberverse toy found in America - the next wave of Warriors, which has one new toy - Dead End.
I'm still seeing a lot of 3rd year Cyberverse toys in our stores here, so I'm wondering if we are going to see any of these 4th year toys here, because with the 4th "season" being so small and quick, the toys of that season needs to be in stores before the show airs, or else they will shelfwarm and interfere with restocking of the Brand as a whole by retailers who have their allocated shelf-space full of Transformers inventory.
More new Cyberverse toys out in America, for the 4th season's release (to help sell the new toys)... Deluxe Slug, and Ultimate Volcanicus (which should also mean the case-mate Hot Rod is out as well).
Looks like Artfire might have had a set global release for mid-November, as it was released in America this week as well.
