Foreign first-release TOY sightings

Wave 3 Powercore Combiner 2-packs have been sighted in America.

Marvel TFs wave (7) with Ghost Rider/motorcycle and Spiderman/helicopter (from the 2-pack) redeco, have been found in America.

The Costco Gold Bumblebee has now hit America as well, for US$42 (plus tax) - so like here, the 'limited' fancy edition with 2 bonus figures, is cheaper than the regular one.

And the Black Human Alliance Sideswipe has also been found in America, but for US$32 (plus tax) at a Walmart... I didn't think they were that expensive over there. It makes our HA prices quite good in comparison.

On a lighter note, it seems that the 'Warriors from Three Worlds' 3-pack (at our Kmarts at the moment), are showing up at US TRU stores for US$25, despite being released to smaller chain stores there for US$15, AND, the individual Scouts were originally priced at about US$6 each. Looks like our TRU chain isn't the only one that likes price-gouging customers.

Wave 3 PCC 5-packs found in America.
(we had a couple months head start with all these new lines, and within half a year, we've already fallen behind by a wave or two)

Reveal the Shield toys were expected before Christmas, so it's no surprise to hear that they have just been found in America - deluxes Tracks and Jazz so far.

Hope we don't have to wait too long for the new waves. I will be putting them on layby as soon as I see em.

The US just had the Wave 3 5-pack PCCs (Stakeout/Protectobots, Crankcase/Destrons) found a couple weeks ago, and now the 4th wave has been found (Dinobots and Constructicons).
Now we're two waves behind, after starting a wave ahead just six months ago.

Also, PCC are on clearance at Kmart. I wonder if we'll even get these.

Activators wave 3 found in America - Rally Rumble Bumblebee and Rally Rumble Optimus Prime (both redecos).
We're still only at wave 1 here.

First wave of Reveal the Shield Scouts (Windcharger and Chopsaw) have been found in Canada. That's the fourth wave of yellow packed Scouts, and we're only at wave 2 in Australia. Looks like we missed wave 3 of the AA Legends, so could end up missing Wave 3 Scouts as well.

The Minicon 8-pack has now been seen in a couple of European countries (Hungary, Slovakia, France) last month.
(this is the third Minicon multipack - we've only had the first one released here)
