Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Thanks to Cybertron.ca member theoneyouknowleast for letting us know that the Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives have been released in Canada.

The sighting was made at a Walmart in Mississauga, Ontario.

Just spotted all four of these on their own display, in the main aisle beside the toy section, at Kitchener's Walmart, inside Stanley Park Mall.

While the ones who aren't Bluestreak are all very sexy (especially the animated deco Optimus/Megatron, who I like a lot more than I thought I would in real images vs renders), I've spent so much on Siege this year that I feel like I can't justify buying duplicates of 3 characters I already have good figures for in their original colors/finishes.


I picked up Bluestreak because he is a separate character, and I would've gone for any of these if I didn't already have baseline Optimus/Megatron/Soundwave, but $120 for a trio of repaints is stretching it just a bit for me.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

I'm glad I ordered Bluestreak already. Sounblaster, I'm thinking about but have not confirmed if I will get it.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

I've ordered Bluestreak already, should be here Monday, but for the others I share your interest.. none. I didn't have any interest in the galaxy OP version either.

Considering that Optimus is returning with trailer in Earthrise, Depending how he is will determine how much I'll regret the Siege one... at the time, I don't but felt cheated that he didn't come with trailer, but I guess Hasbro heard those (myself included) that really emphasized how much we wanted a trailer... heck, I would have loved a release of just a trailer as an add-on.

The cell shade gimmick looks nice, but they just wouldn't fit with anything else anyways.

Aside the Datsun brothers (and Red Alert gets a pass) and the seekers, I hate the whole recolors and such, especially to bring up the powerdashers without more than a different face, as they really could have put put in more efforts into those.

The only recolor I'd get is Galactic Man Shockwave as he looks amazing, but still, I'd need the price to go down as he's just way too overpriced.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Picked up Blustreak, saved me from ordering online.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Might get Prime and Megatron, but I deliberately chose not to get Soundwave so that I could get Soundblaster instead. Over half of my Siege collection are redeco's, I have to draw the line somewhere.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Perfect, was hoping my prediction was correct

We got PDQs for at least two years now around Xmas-time; seeing the 35th one reported in the US, figured that was it

Guessing all these repaints are to tide us over until EarthRise breaks in March (not quite finished baking yet)

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

There will be Siege wave 5 in Dec...

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

saw these in a standalone display no where near the toy section at my local Walmart

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Would anyone happen to have the UPC/SKU for soundblaster, prime or megatron? Thanks

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Seems like the rollout is a little uneven. My local walmart hasn't put a display out yet and I haven't received notice to pick up my online order in-store in spite of it supposedly being on track to arrive on Tuesday or Wednesday. Hopefully it's just a small hiccup.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Does anyone know the upc code for soundblaster?

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Stocktracker.ca is tagging some locations as NotSold... is it just that these Walmarts just haven’t received the displays?

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Are these still available for sale at stores? I haven't seen them in any of the Walmarts in North York and Richmond Hill.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

I was at my store here in Barrie last week and they had a ton of Bluestreak, and 1 Megs and 1 Soundblaster still. Haven’t been there yet ‘this year’ though, so not sure if they still have them.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Were they still in their own standalone display? I noticed my nearby Walmarts all had theirs removed.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

The last ive seen they were removed from the display and put with the rest of the TF figs or in a clearance section. They had some during Xmas at the Walmart at Bayview and High Tech. Bathurst and Centre never got the displays I believe. I also saw them at stores in the Markham area with regular figs, but that was over 3 weeks ago.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Anyone in the GTA able to pick up a Soundblaster for me if they happen to be by a Walmart?

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Again never seen such poor distrabution of a product especially over christmas season ...never seen a single one or display for that matter in whole of orangeville area once again worst walmart in canada couldnt even get this in for sale to mention there normal lack luster toy isles

If you are still looking for stock, did you try the StockTrack website?



Soundblaster: https://stocktrack.ca/?s=wm&upc=630509873777

Bluestreak: https://stocktrack.ca/?s=wm&upc=501099364108

Megs/OP: https://stocktrack.ca/?s=wm&upc=501099363913

https://stocktrack.ca/?s=wm&upc=501099363917


Change the city to your area. Soundblaster has his own SKU, but OP/Megs who seem to share quantity numbers.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

That's an awesome site. I looked at some of those stores and they weren't there, even though it shows there is stock. I'll take a look at some of the others.

Many thanks!

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

I might be able to get a hold of him if your willing to come out my way

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Thanks Yonoid. I'm heading off to some Walmarts tomorrow with the family and will get back to you by tomorrow evening.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Fair warning: the Bluestreak link above shows that there are 17 at a WalMart in my area. In fact, there are ZERO (because I went and checked, then asked). So the StockChecker should be used with extreme caution, like WebMD.

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

There was a pretty full cardboard display of them at Sunrise Wally right before Xmas and last weekend there were some 25th figures on the shelf at Fairview Mall Kitchener Wally...

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

Anyone else notice for Soundblaster that the cassettes fit extremely tightly in his chest? I couldnt get both in without getting them stuck...danger danger...

Re: Siege 35th Anniversary Exclusives Released in Canada
 

It's a very common occurrence that many have reported.

Either you need to do some sort of modification (possibly sanding down the inside of the door) or try the various way of putting the cassettes in it.

I know that with my Soundwave, the Ratbat and Rumble are very tight, but if I flip them a few times, I tend to find one way that is better. But I know that many have reported that Soundblaster is much worse.
