Foreign first-release TOY sightings

[griffin]

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....

• 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).

Cyberverse 1-step (Shockwave, Skybyte), Ultra (Alpha Trion), and Scout (Scraplet).

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.

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.

[griffin]

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.
