Thanks to a report from cybertron.ca members cloodhooper, Pascal and Jacobot (of course ) we now know that 4th and 5th Wave of the Dark of the Moon deluxe figures have hit Canadian Retail.

Wave 4 Includes: Cyberfire Bumblebee and Autobot Rachet Specialist

Wave 5 includes: Air Raid Darksteel and Autobot Armor Topspin have all been spotted at various Toys R Us and Zellers stores in Ontario and Quebec.

Darksteel yes, and Air Raid if they show up locally while a sale is running. :)

Well hopefully this means our drought is over. Who know, maybe we'll even see the new Generations within the next month?

Actually, now that I think about it, this is too much of a coincidence. Do you think retailers held back new stock for the release of DOTM on Bluray/DVD?

Not a bad point. There really has been a lul of sorts of the DOTM figures. Or maybe it's just because every new toy is Bumblebee.

I'm going to ask a stupid question.

Was there ever a non weaponized deluxe topspin? I can't remember.

Hasbro Toy Shop has had them in stock, but they have yet to show up at retail.

Nope. There is regular blue Topspin, the white redeco, and a third deco (as yet unrevealed) in a 2-pack with deluxe Leadfoot.

I'm going to have to rely on Metropolis Comics and Toy to get the wave after this in or something. I've haven't even seen freaking wave 3 toys in my area yet. It's just wave 1 shelfwarming everywhere.

Wave 1 pegwarmers are eternal. :)

While it'll vary depending on the stores, I wouldn't worry too much because if nothing else, all of this stuff will get mass ordered by the end of October to prepare for holiday rush & promotions. Hasbro is a big enough company to have a hand in what's ordered at what price point (one of the reasons they're in business) anyway, so even if your stores are ran by idiots who don't check their update notices & whatever and who expect to work everything manually at that scale, you shouldn't end up with too much wave 1 stuff arriving in place of the newer toys, especially if you live in a big city that orders in large volumes.

Places like London Drugs might end up with the shit nobody else wants (as they order very little & won't be considered a priority for suppliers), but places like Wal-Mart, TRU, Zellers & probably even Superstore will be up to date if stock is there.

Now, this isn't to say that you won't end up getting shafted in favor of shit you don't care about (still haven't seen a single voyager Shockwave anywhere in Kelowna), but unless there's a serious shortage of something, I wouldn't worry about it getting used up in the east. My example probably has more to do with bad luck & a certain wave being skipped, as there's plenty of Sentinel Primes, Megatrons & Ironhides here.
