That must’ve been a long time ago?
Seems like a secondary market item nowadays

Did anyone else see it?
Yes it was available for a short time. I got my order in early and it shipped yesterday. Some people had their orders cancelled after the fact. Hopefully it’s something they restock

Sorry, thought this confusion might happen because of the name - I'm not talking about the WST or Justitoys ones but the ones from the company that makes the "World's Smallest" toys (they have like GI Joe, Etch-A-Sketch, etc etc - miniaturized versions of vintage toys). They just released the Transformers ones recently though I know of no sightings in Canada.

The listing is still on the site https://www.toysrus.ca/en/Transforme.../B4511A6D.html

Sometimes it doesn't let you search it from the site directly (especially when it's popular/new. If you google "Toys R Us Canada Red Wing" this link comes up first.

It is currently out of stock though.

Re: BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

Anyone else experiencing delays with Amazon preorders for Earthrise? Got half my order last week and the rest keep getting pushed back for the delivery date. Specifically OP, Hoist and Wheeljack.

Re: BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

I know Amazon CA has been having issues with fulfilling Marvel Legends & Power Rangers. People order on day orders open up, but come release date their orders are cancelled or pushed back. I'm not surprised that they're having similar issues with TF's. If you find it in the wild, I'd grab those in case your Amazon orders get cancelled!

Re: BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

Was on the lookout but didn't come across those 3. I did pick up a Cliffjumper before the first order shipped out. Dang, and here I was hoping there was finally a reliable source for retail-priced preorders in Canada.

Re: BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

Sounds like Amazon is not that reliable at this point.....I never have my items cancel on me, but I don't want to take the risk. Does anyone know how does Walmart preorder work? Do they ship out item at once? Because I don't want to pay for the shipping if they are just shipping them one at a time...

Well, I haven't had Amazon fail me YET. But there's always a first time. Walmart charges shipping based on the initial checkout. As long as you pass that free shipping threshold, you're good. I haven't used their preorders so I can't say anything about reliability.
