Foreign first-release TOY sightings

[griffin]

Generations Swerve and Cosmos just found at a Canadian retailer... and with BBTS getting some in April, these should be showing up more frequently around the world now (except here of course).... because Australian Major Retailers follow certain rules (like prioritising toys with TV/Movie support so that they don't have to do any work to sell the product), so wouldn't jump on a good thing like this anyway (and cry poor when more and more people shop online and import, as if it wasn't their fault to start with).

The link states ¥17,100 for Metroplex?

When that person posted up the link, it might have been on sale for less, but is now on a smaller discount sale.

Looks that way. I thought it may have been a clearance until they're gone sale as opposed to a weekly one.

The last wave of Beast Hunters Voyager Optimus & Predaking have been found in US retail stores... some months after they were in stock at the Hasbro online store, and at other sources like BBTS.

The Battle Masters Fight Night pack has been found at US retail as well (it was found at a Toyworld here a couple weeks back). Not sure if this was supposed to be held back with Movie toys in May.

And the second wave of Custom Kreons have been found in Taiwan, which is mostly Gen1 characters - Galvatron, Hound, Cliffjumper, Dreadwind, Jazz, Predaking. These might end up here, as the first wave was found in one or two ToysRUs stores here.
(third wave has Movie characters, which will come out in May)

Hi all, ill be in Chile for the next few months on holiday so I though id keep a look out on any items we don't get back home. So far I have found Sky Lynx & Dark Steel in a store called Ripley's. Think of it like a Myer's or David Jones. Im guessing they got the Target exclusives that we barely got back home. They also had the five pack Abominus & 2 pack Prime & Predaking. Didn't check the prices on the latter 2 (as im not interested in them) but Dark Steel was selling for about $34.00AUD & Sky Lynx for about $26.00AUD give or take some cents. Ended up getting Sky Lynx and will be getting Dark Steel next week. Ill keep everyone posted on everything else as I se them. So far no AOE products.

The final wave BH Deluxes have been found in the UK (the upsized Legions).

Rescue Bots Rescan toys were found in Asia and Europe a few months ago, but have now been found in America.
With the resurgent interest in RB toys here (at Kmart and TRU), perhaps they will show up here soon as well.
The person finding them notes that they are smaller than previous convertible RB figures, and are a couple of dollars less as well. (US$8 instead of US$10)
