The only true EB release this year is Ratchet. Every other Generations Select toy is not exclusive to them. For instance, I just bought Nightbird and Zetar from TRU.ca. Free shipping plus I will get some money back friday since both toys are on sale.
So that's where I would shop for nightbird.

As for Redwing, all we know is that if it comes to canada, it wont be an eb exclusive. So probably TRU, like the other Target exclusives we got. If it comes.

Online these are showing full price. Did you call and get a price adjustment?

Smokescreen is also an EB exclusive isn't he? I know when I picked up mine yesterday, they said they only got enough for pre-orders and no extras. He also comes in the not display shelf friendly brown box. hehe

Poor availability is also an EB Games exclusive.

Poor availability is far from being exclusive to EB Games, sadly.

No, hence why they dont have anymore than what was preordered. Ratchet is their only exclusive.

And Vicrav, I didnt have a chance to go to TRU today to get money back for the selects releases so I don't know. But i usually do it in stores.

I've got a Nightbird from TFSource in my stack, just waiting on some other stuff to come into stock so I can qualify for free shipping. Mostly it was stuff that was either unannounced here or having issues with availability at the time I ordered (Jetfire, the Refraktor 3-pack, Smokescreen, Nightbird, Lancer). Aside from Lancer it does seem like I can get most of it here, especially at TRU, but if I start cancelling stuff I'll drop below the free shipping threshold. So I'm content to wait for the last couple things to come into stock on their site and pick it all up at the end of this month or early November.


It's just Red Wing that's a question mark for me right now.

Interesting, from what I had gathered, because he was under the Generations Selects line, then it would be exclusive:

Quote:

Announced in late 2018, Generations Selects is a mail-order series sold exclusively through online retailers, intersecting multiple thematic sublines of Generations. The line consists of "special edition" redecoes and retools of Generations figures, packaged in brown cardboard mailer boxes with no mark up. Initially comprising toys initiated by Hasbro, the line-up also began to include figures initiated by TakaraTomy in early 2019... which will apparently also be officially available through Hasbro Pulse at the very least.

Also this article seemed to suggest EB would have it only

But if not an exclusive, then great! Cuz he's a great figure.
