Awsome. Great to know at least DC and the newer scouts are finally showing up. clap.gif As for the other Deluxe/Voyager/Ultra class ones I gave up and got them through the Endcap.

First time seeing this thread; good stuff, too bad I haven't seen it sooner. But yeah, nice to know I'm not the only one who thinks Walmart hasn't restocked in ages rodimusgrinstatic.gif
Anyways, was in Square One (Missisauga) yesterday  and dropped by at Zeller's. Just in case anyone is interested, they had a lot Cyb OP as well as a Leobreaker (it's on the top most shelf).... Was at a TOYS store last week and damn, they must've had like stacks and stacks of the hasbro reissue smokescreen optimuslaugh2.gif And of course, they had the ever present RID Prime for $69.99 bumblebeetounge.gif

Alternator Optimus Prime sighted in Zellers at Gerrard Square in Toronto...Sadly there was only one and I picked it up.  smiletf.gif
lamuness 2005
a certain comic shop at toronto's major mackenzie drive (whose name by coincidence is the same as one of the planet names in cybertron) has some somewhat (but not totally) rare items:  sky shadow (jetfire repaint) but it's very pricey: 50CAD.  most of their other cybertron prices match the ones over at TOYS (ie pricey).  in addition, they have at least 2 20th anniversary prime for 100CAD

and a nearby zellers has dark scorponok as well

ADD:
just want to clarify that the 20th prime is of course the old one (not the upcoming re-release)
spazzboy

came across both Cybertron Galvatron, and Metroplex in specialty shop for $80 a piece. sadly had to pass.

Also finally saw WingsaberX2, SkyshadowX2  and Dark CrmplezoneX2 one of wfich I bought. Aside from that no shortage of CDRA, Mudflap, original optimus, and the biggest shelf warmer of them all this end of the the continent Snarl.

Zellers finally have Scrapmetal, Lugnutz, Shortround as well as both Swerve, and Swindle. Also in stock was a Richochet, Outback, sunstreaker and about 3 Skids. Also about 12 Supreme Screamers priced at $80. Dammit drop the price already. huffermad.gif

Was in Ottawa over the weekend, and the TRU at the St-Laurent Shopping Center there had 2 Cybertron WingSabers and 2 Cybertron Menasors.  I picked up one of each, because it'll probably be a little while before I find them in Montreal.
lamuness 2005
saw menasor and dark shadow here in toronto toysrus as well
FreedomGundam
Montreal:
The Wal-Mart at Namur metro has apparently stopped selling Alternators!!  They had removed the price tag on the shelf, and the dude tidying up the shelves said that they're not gonna get anymore...  I'm gonna ask the department manager tomorrow, just to make sure...

... and here I was hoping to find Alt Prime... thumbsdown.gif
I hope TRU or other Wal-Marts stock him...
evrdazed
SWTF hans and chewy out at kitchener TRU @ fairview mall.
lamuness 2005
just went to TRUs in toronto:

yonge and eglinton: nothing special except quite a few CD scattershot and sky shadow

lawrence and vpark: saw ONE box of nemesis breaker and i immediately got it. however, it seems that when the manager scanned the box the barcode hasn't registered yet.  unfortunately i didn't get a 12 dollar deal as some people did with primus in the states tounge1.gif
deathsynthe
Cyberton Menasor, Dark Shadow, and Nemesis Breaker at Toyrus at Highway 400 and Highway 7.

They also have one Alternator Optimus Prime hidden, which I picked up for my co-worker.  tounge1.gif

Also, I went to two different wal-mart (one near Highway 400 and Highway 7, and the other at Scarborough Town Center), and whatever Alternator left is on sale for $20, and the Beast Wars' figure are $15.

Dammit. already. eektf.gif I just finally found Scrapmetal, Shortround, and Lugnutz less than a month ago.

Well time to make another trip. redface2tf.gif

Not sure where to put this exactly... But Alts and BW 10th Anniv are on clearance at Walmart... must've been awhile now since the two Walmarts I've been too have been ransacked already..
evrdazed
Not very exciting sighting, but kinda new, because i haven't seen these before.

Zellers @ Cambridge Center

Cybertron Ransack GTS
Cybertron Giant Planet Mini-Con Team
Nemesis Leobreaker
Soundwave
CD Scatteshot

Galaxy Force Wingsaber for only $29.99 at the One's Better Living at Market Village in Markham.  Way cheaper then the US version.  smiletf.gif  They also have some other Galaxy Force figure, too...But they are not cheaper than their US counterpart.
thesnarl
Hey Everyone. I am a new memeber (been reading for a while though) and I live in Laval, Quebec thought maybe I could help out with the sightings since I am sure you all hate going somewhere with no new stock as much as I do.

I have been to the Toys R Us near Carrefour lately and they had nothing but a lot of early waves. The only thing that was even remotely new was Menasor.

The Toys R Us in the the west island was better. The had Soundwave, Menasor, Dark CrumpleZone, The Decepticon version of Jetfire (whos name escaped me) and they also had one Galvatron if anyone is interested.
Ultimatetransfan
Smart Maple at Centrepoint Mall has Sonic Bomber ($29.99) and Liger Jack ($19.99)

cheaper than their Cybertron counterparts

also some Nitro Convoy and Dirt Boss (forgot his GF name)

Nice! More people to post sightings in the Montreal region!
Interestingly, I normally find that the TRU next to Carrefour Laval usually has a better selection than the one in the west island next to Fairview. Maybe I should go to the Fairview one more then. tounge1.gif I mostly hit the one in LaSalle, but I go to the Laval one once every two weeks or so...
thesnarl
I just went by carrefour again yesterday. Nothing to report at all. Just one Galvatron and 2 Menasors. I am severely considering getting a job there would save on the trips and dissapointment of finding absolutely nothing
darksage78
Markville TRU:
Titaniums: WW Optimus Prime, Unicron
Cybertron: Menasaur, Galvatron and the usual, Soundwave was bought by someone...
Energon: 2x Megatron

Markville Wal Mart:
Random Cybertron deluxes and scouts, 2 BW 10th Ann Rhinox on clearance otherwise nothing.

Hmm looks like I'll have to take a walk over to Pmall tomorrow to check their Smart Maple and then Market for Ones and Smart Maple. Thanks for the info.
carbonblue
Zeller's at Yorkgate Mall (Jane/Finch optimuslaugh2.gif)
as of Tuesday when I was there, there was
1 CD Scattershot
1 Cyb Soundwave
1 Dark Crumplezone
2 Crumplezone
the ever present shelfwarmer Mudflap
2 Megs
1 Nemesis Breaker
3 Energon Unicrons (@ $63/each)

... and if anyone collects them, the men's olympic hockey bobbleheads @ $10 apiece..

deathsynthe, if it's not too much trouble, can you please confirm if the GF WingSaber is still available (if you're going to the Market Village again)? Thanx thumbsup1.gif
deathsynthe
Not a ture toy sighting but some information on Nemesis Prime...Silver Snail in downtown Toronto has a Nemesis Prime behind the counter and on it, it said it will be coming soon. I talked to the person behind the counter there, and she said that it will be available in 2 weeks. No luck in getting her to sell me that one. thumbsdown.gif Anyway, the price tag for it is either $59.99 or $69.99, and the quantity is going to be little. I think I will pass on it because of the price tag. In the mean time, waiting for Hasbro to change their mind and widely releaase it like in Hong Kong. icon_sad.gif

carbonblue...sorry final exam is coming up and it will be another two weeks before i am going to market village. Ask darksage78...seems like he/she has gone to check it out a few days ago.
darksage78
@ carbonblue I was there yesterday but ended up spending my time at Orbit and forgot about the sightings unforunately. I'll check soon if you still want me to. I live within walking distance XD
carbonblue
@deathsynthe... No worries, thanks for the prior heads up still though.. thumbsup1.gif:

@ darksage... Thanks for the offer.. But I don't want you to go out of your way just to check it out; the next time you have to go there would be alright clap.gif

I was there as well (on Thursday); I tried as well, but they wouldn't budge on selling their display NP; but yeah, they'll have it in a few weeks for $59.99. They did have three alts (Smokescreen, Sideswipe and Hound or was it Rollbar) for $25/each (as well as EX02 for *gasp* $250!). Oh, deathsynte, was the girl behind the counter a bit short and somewhat dark complexion? If so, you should've asked her about the MP Voltron they had for sale; girly fan-gasm for Voltron at its finest. optimuslaugh2.gif
FreedomGundam
TRU near Fairview in Montreal:

Nothing new in the Cybertron line, but they *did* have several 3" Titaniums of Beast Megatron and Unicron. Was looking for the Primes, but they didn't have any...
FreedomGundam
Zellers in Place Alexis-Nihon in Montreal:

They had 1 complete set of the newer set of Cyb.Minicons (the Armada Perceptor repaint, and the big cannon repaint). 1 incomplete set as well (missing one of the 3 pairs). I picked up the complete set, though...
deathsynthe
1 Cybertron Primus Action and 1 Cybertron Metroplex seen at the Wal-mart @ Scarborough Town Center. They also have the 3" titantium starscream and 3" titantium of one of the alternator (forgot its name). Good to see Wal-mart are still carrying the larger transformers. smiletf.gif

2 Cyberton King Starscream at Winners @ Dixie Mall for $39.99 for anyone that is looking for it. smiletf.gif
darksage78
Walked over to Pmall and Market today. Ones still has the 4 Sonic Bombers at $29.99, lots of Ligerjacks at $19.99, several Nitro Convoys at $15.99, several Flame Convoys at $29.99 and some random Micron Legend Starscreams and Robot Masters stuff. I'll might go and pick up a Sonic Bomber tomorrow ^_^
lamuness 2005
ok.....this is prolly not the best choice ever but....

at the notoriously expensive TOYS in yonge and 16th they have the new repaints of override gts, skywarp and cannonball.....thinking that i drove immediately to the one in fairview mall and my instinct was correct: they have excellion along with thunderblast and the above mentioned repaints...and crosswise (in newer primus unleashed packaging).

the catch: 19.99 plus tax

i bought excellion immediately anyways since they will likely be sold at TRU at 15 bucks and will likely to go fast so i just went for it anyways

so if you want any of the above repaints and dont mind paying a few bucks more go for it

ADD:
oh the one at fairview had CD hotshot as well
thesnarl
Was back at the Toys R Us at Carrefour... Nothing new and the section has actualyl been shrunk to make way for the Pirates of the Carribbean toys...
DigibasherX
Aww man, I just picked up Wing Saber at TRU oakville for $40 and I find out that PMall has it for $30?!? Anyways, Menasaur and Storm Shadow was there as well. Metroplex, Quickmix and Primus out at Walmart. Happy Hunting.
lamuness 2005
what? primus is out already at walmart? how much?

crap i just had a friend order primus for me at HTS from the states...oh well
DigibasherX
75.89 I think.

Oh, and it's the one with the unicron head.
FreedomGundam
TRU LaSalle:
- Wave 1 of the Titanium 3"

Wal-Mart (both LaSalle and Decarie ones):
- Cyb.Soundwave, CD Scattershot, D.Crumplezone (Interestingly, a few months ago, the manager told me that they weren't gonna get any of the "larger" Transformers anymore. I haven't seen any Voyager or larger at Wal-Mart since January...)

And I think this tops it. I've officially given up looking at TRU and Wal-Mart for new things. They never get anything, and Wal-Mart no longer stocks Alts either way. My Zellers seems to be getting good, though. I'll probably just pay the extra couple of bucks and just buy all my figures online from now on...

Whoa. Cheaper than what I paid for (in the end after shipping and taxes) from BBTS. Oh well.
lamuness 2005
well, in ontario you have to pay 14% tax on top of that 75 bucks so.....
FreedomGundam

Yeah, in Quebec here it's about 14% as well (6%, then 7.5%).
But from BBTS, I paid something like $85CDN after shipping. Canada Post also charged me $14 in duties/taxes afterwards. So I paid along the lines of $100CDN for my Primus with Unicron head about 3 weeks ago...
carbonblue
[rant]Customs duties are a crap-shoot it seems; the ones shipped expedited/priority or EMS seem to get scrutinized more. Also, if you really want another kick to the nuts, read the "handling fee" that is charged by Customs; more often than not, it's more than the duties on the actual item...[/rant]

TRU on Hwy7/Weston Rd had a couple of Sky shadows, a lot of basics and more than a few SW: TF Millenium Falcons and BW 10th anniversary figs.... Oh, and in case anyone's interested, electronic Batmobiles at half price ($20)
FreedomGundam
Passed by Zellers at Place Alexis-Nihon in downtown Montreal...

They had a few 3" Titaniums that I haven't seen... Sideswipe, Jazz, the Ark, Cyb.Megatron and G1 Starscream. They had the 3" Optimus Primal, but I took that one...
carbonblue
Went to TRU in Woodbridge for the Cyb Basics sale... Saw a couple of CD Scattorshots, a Soundwave, a few Menasors and Sky Shadows and a whole $hitload of Dark crumplezones... Also saw 3" of Sideswipe, Jazz, BW Megatron, Unicron and Starscream.
carbonblue
TRU Woodbridge --- 1 each of Wing Saber, CybDef Scattorshot... a lot of Dark Crumplezones and Sky Shadows... and lots of LOCs

TRU Sherway Gardens --- Two 6"titanium Megs, a couple of Alt Sunstreakers.. nothing else noteworthy...

Zellers (Cloverdale Mall) -- Cyb Galvy (for $59, which is $10 cheaper than most if I'm not mistaken), some 3" titanium figs (BW OP, Galvy) for $5.99 and one 6" Titanium Megs (which I bought, but I might end up returning)...

Yeah, it was a very rare day of toy hunting for me...
thesnarl
BIG UPDATE

Went to the Wal-Mart at Centre Laval today. THEY HAD PRIMUS. I obviously bought one, but one still remains. Good hunting.

Ps:With Unicron head
deathsynthe
Toyrus@Cedarbrae Mall (Lawerence & Markham Road) in Scarborough has one of each 6' titanium Optimus Prime and Megatron for $24.99 each.

Zellers in the same mall also has two of each 6' titanium Optimus Prime and Megatron for $19.99 each. I brought my here. >)
