GameStop.ca (formerly EB Games) Transformers Sightings and discussion
 

Didn't see a thread for EB Games so may as well start one here...

The Transformers Generations Selects War for Cybertron Micromaster WFC-GS10 Soundwave Spy Patrol (3rd Unit) 4-Pack (Which should be Frenzy, Wingthing, Knock and Skar) is up for Preorder on EBgames,ca

Don't let that Minecraft board game pic fool you lol.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Good idea, with EBgames getting more selects in now, good to have a thread.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Thanks! Ordered! Cancelled my Hasbro Pulse preorder accordingly!

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

I placed an order even though I had an in store pre-order in place.
But given the current situation, who knows where we'll be a month from now, so I erred on the side of caution.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

The photo is different.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

that's been up for a good month or so... still with the same wrong image.

I already have my Blue Frenzy, so the other figures, especially 2 being Ratbat recolours is just sad... at least a Buzzsaw would have made sense.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Eyeroll. They're gang molded, as many others have said before. You get frenzy/ratbat or ravage/laserbeak. Sunder has history with encore. Rumble obviously makes sense. And the other two are Doubledealer's "powermasters."

Buzzsaw missing sucks, but there is no good reuse for ravage even in encore. And they're not doing shattered glass.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Technically you can pass of White Ravage as Glit from Kiss Players. Or make him blue and say he's Howlback.

Speaking mathematically it is possible to get every version of the original Rumble/laserbeak/ratbat molds if we do:

Buzzsaw/Howlback
Sundor/Glit
Garboil/Stripes
Enemy/Shattered Glass Ratbat (possibly with new name)

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

I WOULD BUY ALL OF THESE

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Im sure we will see more tapes. I imagine Blaster and Twincast will be released eventually too.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Would be stunned if they aren't. Earthrise isn't over and then there is part 3 of this "trilogy." Trilogy of dumb, but whatever.

Albeit I would hope they do different molds for Rewind/Eject instead of just Frenzy/Rumble with new heads. They have different enough profiles. Eh. But you could also change their gang mold counterpart, because Steeljaw would have to be new or an extensive remold of Ravage, and Ramhorn has to be new.

TAPES TAPES TAPES TAPES

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Ordered a set. Tried to find something to add to get free shipping but - is it just me or is the whole site practically sold out of everything?

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

I hope so .... it would be nice to have a complete set of tapes for soundwave in one line other than Masterpiece.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Ordered a set too. Almost makes me wish I got Soundblaster. Could've put those other 3 with Ratbat. Then each one would've had 4 minions. Lol

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

If you still want Soundblaster, here you go.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

F%$k 40$ Soundblaster....

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Wasn't that always the price?

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Yes. It's the same price as other siege/er voyagers.

I don't think voyagers should be $40, but that has always been his price. Subjective, I think the colors work better on this particular mold than Soundwave. And he fits two tapes.

If you don't get him now, you will likely pay more later. YMMV. He's no longer in stores and the Walmart exclusive voyagers don't seem to have been included in recent siege rollbacks (yes my $35 Shockwave).

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Yes, 35th Soundblaster was always $40...it never dropped in price like the 35th Prime and Bluestreak did. ToysToysToys might have it by now. I think TRU had Soundwave, but their sh*t never works.

Warning, when I tried putting all tapes in Soundblaster they got stuck...be warned.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Ha, yeah. I think it's been said that all but Laserbeak seem to have issues in either mold. Definitely had to leverage them out.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

This certainly influenced my decision to skip Siege Soundwave
and all the battle-muck
and the cracked glass cover deco
and Soundblaster's never-on-sale

With that said, I'm probably going to get the 4-pack w/ Doubledealer's powermasters, so I'll end up having two WFC cassettes anyways, natch

Sunstreaker

Trailbreaker
https://www.ebgames.ca/Toys-Collecti...nd-up-5-5-inch

There you go.. sighting reported before another knee-jerk comment.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Damn guess I waited too long to order. Out of stock.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

oh man same here. I pre ordered it in store but forgot to do it on here after they closed retail

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

From there website.

When stores re-open, will I be able to pick-up my pre-order?
Absolutely. We will hold your reservation until our stores re-open, and you will receive any applicable pre-order bonus items at that time.

Please note that the item you pre-ordered may not be available in store immediately when our stores re-open, as all new inventory is currently being stored at our Distribution Centre. After stores re-open, we will ship the item you pre-ordered to the store where you made the reservation, and one of our associates will contact you by telephone when your order is ready for pick-up.

If you would like to receive the item you pre-ordered now, please feel free to place a new order at EBGames.ca (where stock is available) and we will ship the item directly to your home with contactless delivery. When our stores re-open, you will have the opportunity to cancel your pre-order, move your pre-order deposit (if applicable) to another product purchase, or cancel your pre-order and receive a refund for your pre-order deposit (if applicable).

So I guess I'll just get my micromasters when the stores reopen.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Thanks! Trailbreaker ordered!

And can hardly wait for those 4 Generations Select tapes! too bad Doubledealer won’t be out soon enough...

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

I have a Platinum Edge card from in store shopping. Anyone know how to connect that to my ebgames website account? My online account thinks I just have Edge Red (moat basic).

Can't find anything relevant in their FAQ or just googling...

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

You will have to pay full price now and get the rebate refunded in store when they will reopen.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Platinum is only for in store. You get points on the website. Found this by googling platinum discount online.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Are trailbreaker and sunstreaker exclusives?

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

No, so kind of weird it's only the two. Maybe the rest of the wave is repacks?

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

No, Amazon Canada has Sunstreaker listed but for some reasons there is no Trailbreaker.

I wonder if EB will carry the ER Thundercracker + Skywarp Target exclusive pack later.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Tru carried the Rainmakers and Micromaster packs from Target, and eventually Redwing. Seem unlikely.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Right you are. There is a business link with Target and TRU. EB tends to get Walgreens exclusives.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Weird, I ordered them anyways since it doesn't bill until it ships.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Someone who works at TRU said they saw some product numbers for the Two pack exclusives with the Seekers and the Two pack with the Pounce and Wingspan on the TRU system...not sure if that is a confirmation for TRU on those or just a product code for outside items, but its a clue.

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Pls check WM website, Soundblaster is down to $27.97 CAD as of yesterday (I finally bit)

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Dammit! Walmart doesn't do price matching to their own sales like tru does, do they?

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

Not in my experience

I just bought one off the website; haven't had many issues with WM site orders so far, don't anticipate any, but I'll mention if any arise

Re: EBgames.ca Transformers Sightings
 

The Seekers 2 pack! Yes ER Thundercracker and Skywarp!
