We receive news from Instagram and Twitter user Optimarcus, who contacted us on our social media platforms, that Canada was not in fact the second country to see the mass retail release of the new Transformers Power of the Primes toyline - but in fact third, as Singapore has seen the full first wave of Prime Masters, Legends, Deluxes and Voyagers already as of last week! The images below show the figures found at independent toy retailer Robo Robo, with Prime Masters found at 10-20 S$ (7-14 USD), Legends Skrapnel, Slash, Windcharger, Beachcomber at 15-25 S$ (18 USD max) Deluxe Dreadwind, Jazz, Swoop and Slug priced between 30-40 S$ (30 USD max), and Grimlock and Starscream at 50-65 S$ (cap of 48 USD) each. We do not have confirmed prices at the time of writing.

As we wrote for the Canada story, however, do note that the leader class figures, Rodimus Prime and Optimus Prime, have yet to be found anywhere so please let us know if you find them. You can also post your findings in the Sightings section and Sightings forums in the Energon Pub.

The US will go down in history as being the very first country to get the Power of the Primes figures, but the second is none other than its big sister, Canada. And not to be outdone, Canada now becomes the very first country to have the Voyager figures. These sighitngs come to us from Cybertron.ca members anotheran and Matrix_Holder at Walmarts in the Toronto region. They were said to be near the pet food, away from the Transformers section. As you will see in the images below, these were heavily stocked, and they should be making their way across Canada soon. The prices were $12.97, $19.97, and $29.97 for the legends, deluxe and voyager classes respectively, confirming that there is no price increase mirroring the 30-100% increase what we saw with the Transformers: The Last Knight toyline.

Here is a rundown of the toys found and if anyone wants a rundown of all that has been revealed so far, please click here. Do note that the leader class figures, Rodimus and Optimus Prime, have yet to be found anywhere so please let us know if you find them. You can also post your findings in the sightings section and sightings forum.

Legends: Beachcomber, Dinobot Slash, Skrapnel, Windcharger

Deluxe: Autobot Jazz, Dinobot Slug, Dinobot Swoop, Dreadwind

Voyager: Grimlock, Starscream

The newest Transformers you'll be, Power of the Primes has been slowly trickling it's way into mass retail stores. For quite a while now, the figures had only been seen at Target, but now we have proof that they're making their way to other big box stores! Our very own ScottyP sent a brand new sighting our direction, not of a figure, but of a new store display!
The display comes from a Wal-Mart in North Carolina, and features various stocking stuffer toys. Among them Lego Polybags, Nerf Darts, and POTP Legend Class Figures! With a price tag of $9.84, this is one of the first times these figures have been spotted at a non-Target store, and certainly the first time we've seen this display! This will hopefully make it easier for collectors and fans to fond the highly coveted figures! Check out the provided image of the display below!

Good news South American fans! Via Facebook group Transformers Chile, we have images of new sightings of some Transformers: The Last Knight figures which have had a troublesome history at States retail: Turbo Changer Knight Armor Hound and the Autobot Unite exclusive (but not really) Legion class Hot Rod, along with Legion Crosshairs and Drift.

The bulky (geddit) simplified toy rang up at 19990 Chilean pesos (approx 30.5 USD) while the smaller ones 5990 (9 USD), and Heht Rehd a slightly higher price of 6990 (10 USD). The former three were all found at Falabella de Paseo Puente, in Santiago Centro, whereas Hurht Rohrd was spotted in the Supermercado Líder de General Velasquez (Santiago Central Station). Check out the images below, and make sure to use the Sightings Database for any sightings of your own, too!

We have some good news for those of you still looking to complete your Titans Return line-up! Thanks to fellow Seibertronian Bucky, we can report that the Walgreens exclusive Clone 2-pack of Wingspan and Cloudraker have been made available on Walgreens.com! Much like fellow Titans Return exclusive Brainstorm, this exclusive began showing up in Walgreens stores a few weeks ago. A listing on Walgreens previously said this two-pack was only available in stores, but now, if you don't live near one or there isn't one convenient to you, you have another way of getting this highly-sought after figure pack. Let us know if you plan on picking this one up, and if you're still looking for them in the wild, happy hunting!

Still not giving us any kind of confirmation as to what the line is actually called, a fan has sent us notification of the allegedly named Transformers Authentics - featuring the 'evergreen' designs on the packaging - as spotted across a number of stores in the Philippines, as reported by vproject (though the images is by Franz Echeverria on Facebook) and maku098 of fellow Transformers fansite TFW2005.

The sightings show all four basic figures, with Decepticons Starscream and Megatron being accompanied by Autobots Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, from a Toys'R'Us store and Alabang's Toy Kingdom inside the Festival Supermall in Muntinlupa City. The price is the same, at 299.75 Philippine pesos (approx 6 USD) each, and you can check them out mirrored below - and make sure to use our Sightings database in case these or any other figures turn up near you!

Transformers: Robots in Disguise Legion Twinferno Found at US Retail

With the relatively recent news of the Transformers: Robots in Disguise warrior class Twinferno figure finally making it to US shelves, we now have news that his smaller scaled toy, legion class Twinferno has been found as well. This particular sighting is from fellow Seibertronian Megatron Wolf who found it at Target in Sayville, NY, for $5.99 USD. This confirms that the US release of these remaining figures is indeed different from the rest of the world where Hasbro distributed, since everywhere else, the next wave should have had legion class Cyclonus and Heatseeker instead with Twinferno coming after that particular wave.

It is currently unknown if the Cyclonus/Heatseeker wave, which has already been spotted in markets outside the US, has been outright skipped in the US or if it will be coming out after the legion Twinferno wave. While there is currently no listing of the CyclonusHeatseeker wave from any US based store, we should remember that the warrior class waves have been out of order as well in the US. The best example is the US getting a wave consisting of just one warrior class Twinferno along with repacked figures as opposed to the Bludgeon/Thermidore/Twinferno wave which is scheduled to come out later this year in the US, half a year after being found everywhere else.

All to say that the US distribution of this line has not been aligned with the rest of the world for some reason, but the good news is that the toys do seem to eventually come out and the US gets this legion class wave a bit earlier than other countries. So early in fact that there has yet to be any video review for this legion class Twinferno. So if you spot any or make one yourself in the next couple of days, let us know!

It may have come unnoticed, but adventure kits have been popping up for Transformers: The Last Knight. These kits are for kids to use outdoors and includes a flashlight, binoculars and a telescope. These are all covered in art featuring the movie characters, especially Sqweeks. This kit is also available online at Toysrus.ca for $19.99 CAD for those interested.
Speaking of Sqweeks, his AllSpark Tech toy was also found in Canada. This is a starter kit like the two Optimus releases. However, and this is a point some may not know, this toy does not transform. This is unlike every other toy in this line which does have a simple transformation. This does make him more movie accurate, of course.

These toys were found in Montreal, Canada, at Toysrus.

While Black Friday has not always been a tradition in Canada, the past couple of years have seen stores step up their game and giving some pretty great deals. This year though, both Walmart and Toysrus don't have anything specific to the brand. All that Toysrus has is a deal where if you buy 100$ worth of anything, you get a 15$ coupon for your next purchase. You can see the flyer here.

Amazon.ca however, has an amazing set of deals.
You can get to the Transformers that are part of the Black Friday by clicking here, they are numerous. So numerous that I will only list some of the best deals below.
The prices you see below the prices are at the time of writing, so they may change.

Trypticon for $156.07

New Canadian Transformers Sightings Including Holiday Restock at Winners and Fidget Its at Dollarama

Canadians looking for bargains this holiday season may be in luck. Winners has received a lot of various new Transformers stock. The offerings at this Market Six store will differ from location to location so these are just a few examples. Warrior class figures from the Robots in Disguise Soundwave / Blurr wave have been found for $12.99. This would explain why this particular wave had a very short lived shelf life with the primary Hasbro retailers, the stock was dumped to Winners/TJX.

Speaking of Robots in Disguise, you can also find the Crash Combiners for $14.99. There was also Rescue Bots items, such as the different playsets, Transformers: The Last Knight Optimus Prime Knight Armor for $19.99, and still many many Titan Heroes figures from Age of Extinction (those are of course not new, but seem fully restocked). There have also been reports on seeing the Toysrus Exclusive Platinum Year of the Monkey Optimus Primal for $80. It seems most of this stock is coming from Toysrus, with exclusives such as Optimus Primal and some Power Rangers Legacy items showing up.

For the fans wondering where the Fidget Its Transformers spinners can be found in Canada, it seems like Dolarama is the place to go. With Dollarama recently becoming more involved than ever in the discount store territory, taking older stock from other retail stores, it is unsure if this product comes directly from Hasbro or from a big box store that simply no longer wants to stock spinner toys. They are all across Canadian Dollarama stores for only $2 a piece.
