    RID Activators w3 (Soundwave & Optimus) have been found at Target in America.

    RC Sqweeks and TR Trypticon have been found at an independent store in the US, so could be out at regular retail soon as well. Trypticon has also shown up at BBTS, which should be from Hasbro America.

    A new shipment of Transformers must have arrived from China into America recently, as a lot of new toys have just been found in the last few days.

    Generations Trypticon has now been found at a major retailer in America, while the Generations wave 5 Deluxes (Misfire, Twintwist, Windblade) have also just been found at American retail.

    From the Movie toyline, the Leader Class (Optimus, Megatron), RC Sqweeks, and Mega Changer Dragonstorm, have also been found at major retail in America.

    From RID, the first wave of Combiner Teams (Ultra Bee, Menasor), have been found over there as well.

    And as for Rescue Bots, the Knight Watch Bumblebee (turns into a dragon, with two dragon minicons), has been found at a ToysRUs, while a new Minicon/Friends figure called Silverback (a white gorilla) has been found on Amazon America.

    The first wave of Rescue Bots Flip Racers have been found (reported) in America. They've been on Amazon America for a little while, so they might have been in stores there for a while too.

    And now that SDCC is over, the latest Gen1 Masterpiece (Optimus reissue) has now been found in stores in America.

    Movie Masterpiece Bumblebee has been found at ToysRUs in America, as has the first wave of Allspark Tech (at Target), and the Walmart exclusive Flip&Change Bumblebee and Hotrod.

    Movie Masterpiece Optimus is now out in America, as a ToysRUs exclusive, as is Infernocus ($35) and RTS Voyager Optimus.
    The Reveal The Shield series was expected to be a Target exclusive in America, but the Voyager Optimus has shown up at ToysRUs, suggesting that Hasbro prepared several toys as exclusives for Target, but the retailer only ended up taking the others... leaving Hasbro looking for a new home for the Voyager Optimus.

    Titans Return Ramhorn (wave 5) is also out in America.

    Wave 3 Movie Voyagers (Scorn & Nitro) are now out in America and Asia... but are not expected here at this time (this could change if retailer demand picks up).

    The giant Rescue Bots Optimus trailer trackset for the Flip Racers is also out in America.

    Cyber Battalion toys have finally made their way to regular retail in America, with the wave 2 Jetfire being found at Walgreens, along with Bumblebee (probably in with the second wave). They were priced at a very nice US$17 (about the same as a Deluxe over there), considering these are about Voyager sized, and Walgreens is usually more than regular retail with their pricing because they are a convenience store.

    Hasbro Australia were looking at getting them in here as well, but I haven't heard if we will.

    RID Combiner Teams wave 2 (Galvatronus) is now out in Asia... in the same week that wave 1 was found here.

    BTW, it looks like we aren't the only ones having trouble with Movie Deluxe Wave 1 warming shelves, as wave 2 in America is proving hard to find... to the point of wave 3 showing up because stores sat on wave 1 for too long.

    The Target exclusive 3-pack of Movie Tiny Changers (Optimus, Bumblebee, Steelbane) has finally been found in stores in America for US$10... which is a dollar more than three individual figures, which probably accounts for the extra packaging.

    These are not expected here.
