Thanks to a sighting in Manitoba we now know that the Vintage Beast Wars Megatron has been released in Canada. Price is $69.97.

The sighting was made at a Walmart in Winnipeg.

Was just on IG and someone in Alberta also spotted em https://www.instagram.com/p/CRL4F-RsLNS/

Man I always wanted that figure as a kid, got the Transmetal one which I really liked but of course, GPS had him bisected one fateful day orz

The Kingdom one is amazing and a much better looking and more show accurate figure but I still wanna get this reissue for the novelty of it. And for Brian junior who could never get him in the 90s

Really cool, but $70 is steep for an old figure.

That is true, but I'm still gettin him on sight. Feels a bit more fair than the 100$ Devastator reissue I think..

I dunno, Devy felt fair. Soundwave was expensive. Trailerless prime was hilarious. ;)

A loose/complete BW ultra Megatron would reasonably be no lower than $50, before any possible shipping costs. A boxed og one is probably $100+.

50-60 would be better but 70 isn't atrocious.

Yeah that makes sense, and he's not much smaller than the Kingdom Leader Megatron either.

If you're curious, the original figure was sold for what would now be $50. So yeah, it's more expensive but not by a crazy amount like Astrotrain was.

Sadly, I remember seeing a skid of these at Samko Toys at $15 each, and passed on them.

In robot mode it is shorter but they look more similar in dino mode. Kingdom Megs is also heavier because of its rubber parts.

I know these walmart exclusives are ridiculously hard to find and become price gouged on ebay and other places. Hopefully someone has a UPC or SKU might be worth checking on stocktrack.ca

Or like every other walmart exclusive, they will be super hard to find in the first few weeks, and collectors panic, and then there ends up being enough sightings to satisfy most people.

That's not the case all of the time as seen with quite a few of the Netflix figures and the retro headmasters. Walmart is terrible with restocking their action figures (at least where I live).

I haven't seen a single bw reissue in Vaughan but could be they are being snatched up before I get there lol. But I have Kingdom so not panicking.
