-----------------------------------

This is still incomplete, but it needs to be online for the fans already needing the info on this resource.
Remaining sections to be added are the Movie toys, the Japanese toys, and Hasbro Exclusives.

The Generations, RID and Rescue Bots sections are complete and up to date as of today.

Movie section is now added.

Known exclusives and the TakaraTomy/HK sections now done.

Finally, it is complete... until the next update.

You have Nitro listed as a Deluxe, I'm pretty sure it's a voyager.

Also, iv I'm reading this right, we should be seeing the remaining waves of deluxes and voyagers popping up here already, so maybe in the next month.

The list still needs to be updated since SDCC. It was only a bit before that when we knew Nitro was a Voyager.

I emailed Hasbro AU the other day with some questions about what toys we might expect to see here and I got the following response:

To date, RID Warrior Class Bisque is not in any of the assortments we have coming.

Its a bit disappointing that so little is planned for release here. I'm going to the onlines.

Yeah, that'd be about right. Last I heard, we were definitely getting wave 2 Movie toys, but wave 3 was still uncertain.
(this isn't too unusual though, as we always have retailers ordering a large amount of wave 1 toys for the release of the movie, which then impacts on the later waves, often seeing limited or missing products here)

So does that mean we are not getting Scorn draginstorm and Nitro at all? Or just not anytime soon?
If not at all, then darn. That's really stupid. Guess I better camp
Put on HLJ

Kinda figured we weren't gonna see Hot Rod here, given he was a Walmart exclusive.

Glad we'll
Supposedly at least be seeing sqweeks and steel and here. Been waiting on them for what feels like ages.

Now, what if New Bumblebee and Cogman? I assume if we aren't getting wave 3 voyagers or wave 2 leaders. We may not see wave 3 deluxes.

It's really unfortunate that retailers always overstock wave 1

St least we've been seeing RiD and TR stuff here (save for Bisk, Scatterspike and Ratchet)
Although no sign of the team combiners yet.

*sigh* This is why I buy online

I am really glad that I am not collecting the movie figures...

Added some new upcoming Rescue Bots to the checklist, from Entertainment Earth website.

In case we ever get wave 3 of the Movie Deluxes here (Crosshairs, new Bumblebee and Strafe), or you are overseas and are looking to buy Crosshairs... apparently one batch have some faulty parts to them with their wheels and guns, and to find the ones that should be okay, look for production code 72011.

I hardly buy them here. 90% online purchase.

Updated first 5 posts.

Still need to update posts 6 to 9.

Post #9 finally updated with the known 2018 POTP toys.

Post #7 & #8 have been updated with what should be all of the Japanese and Hasbro Asia Transformers toys for 2017.
I'll have to start up the 2018 list soon.

I didn't realise that I hadn't completed the exclusives post (#6), so I've now done that, which should mean that everything released during 2017 globally, should be included somewhere.
(if you know something is missing, please let me know)

I have a small list of minor details I need to edit, but that should pretty much be it for the 2017 checklist - and the 2018 checklist is almost ready for release.
