Check with Boris at A3U. He mentioned he would be getting both the Magnus and SG Optimus sets, but wouldn't be putting preorders up online.

Back in the good old days I remember a place in Crystal Mall, the old JHobby, a few tiny ships in Pacific Plaza. Now, they are all gone.
Going further back to 85, there was this cool toy shop on hastings a few stores over from Army & Navy that sold G1s and Diaclones. That's where I got my yellow diaclone Sideswipe that I never really liked because I thought it was a 'fake' transformer.
Ah, the memories.

You'll have a hard time finding any shops with Diaclones or boxed G1s. The only shops I know that carry boxed G1s in BC are Cherrybomb Toys over in Victoria. R.P.G. Vintage Toys out in Langley (near Toy Traders) has G1s as well. But not many boxed, when I was last there, which was awhile ago.
The owner of Toy Traders has mentioned to me that he's been holding onto a lot of vintage G1s, once their ready to revamp their TF section. But that was over a year ago, lol.
