    Wave 8 RID Warriors (the 4th wave for 2016) have been found at US Retail, containing Ratchet, Bisk and Scatterspike.
    (we are still yet to see wave 7 here)

    Apparently the Titans Return Deluxe Brainstorm is now officially in release in America at Walgreens, so the earlier findings of this toy must have been pre-emptive selling of some stores.
    Looks like it has been out for a while in Asia as well.

    At this time, it is not expected for Australia.

    Damn! I keep holding out hoping to find one locally to avoid paying 5x as much off eBay.

    The Platinum Edition 1986 Movie set of five Autobots (Ultra Magnus, Arcee, Kup, Springer, Blurr is now on the American Target website, as it is there exclusive in America. It is also out in Asia, but is not expected in Australia.

    The RID 1-step wave with Bisk and Ratchet have been found in Germany - they've been found in Asia and America, but haven't shown up here yet.

    The RID 3-step Stealthasaurus Grimlock finally showed up in America at retail, even though I think it has been at online stores there since the end of last year. It showed up here in Australia about 9 months ago.

    Titans Return wave 3 have been showing up in North America as well, with Deluxe, Voyager and Titanmasters.

    Also soon after it showed up here, is the RID 3-step Bisk, along with the previous wave of orange Drift and Energon Bumblebee.

    Apparently the TR Leader Soundwave wasn't yet out at American Retail, because it has now been found... some months after the rest of the world.

    The first wave of RID Warriors for 2017 have appeared on Amazon America, which has Blastwave (an Autobot that looks like Bludgeon), Skyfire and a new white/red Drift redeco.

    The Amazon prices have gone through the roof in the last few months, with these Warriors being priced at US$24 (about AU$35). It looks like they've raised the prices of all their past RID Warriors to match too, pretty much putting to an end any future Amazon purchases by me if it isn't on clearance.
    I had noticed the hefty increase in recent Rescue Bots toys late last year, but now the various RID toys look to be seeing the same increase... and if Amazon ever reliably stocks Generations, they might be seeing a price increase too.

    They also have a new Rescue Bots "friend" (a mini animal that turns into something), that has the best mode of a Sequoia bear, but doesn't list its name.
    The last one to be released was Valor the blue lion, while Servo the dog and Drake the dragon were the first wave, which we got here.

    The latest wave of Titans Return Legends with Gnaw, Bumblebee and Kickback, has just been released in America this week.

    Also out in the last few weeks in America, are the second wave of the Series 1 of Alt-Modes, and the first wave of Series 2. (Alt-modes are the small toys that are giant heads on a transforming vehicle)

    The RID Crash Combiners have also been found in America as well.

    According to Justowen in HK, all but Broadside of the fourth wave of Titans Return are now out in HK... and Broadside should be out soon, if not already.
    (which is ironic that Broadside is the first of the fourth wave to be found here this week, as well as in Canada)

    Wave 4 Deluxe (Perceptor, Kup, Krok, Topspin, Quake) have been found at American Retail this week, so shouldn't be long before they show up here.

    Found in the last week in several places in America, is the Titans Return Chromedome, with the Japanese version head (no faceplate).
    It is likely to be a production error, with the wrong heads packaged with the Hasbro toys... and it looks like a large batch ended up getting past the QC checkers... so keep an eye out next time you are in the stores, in case some show up here in one of the later waves that Chromedome is re-released in.
