Re: Siege Red Wing: Any news on a Canadian release?

What you quoted does not state any retailer exclusivity, you may have misread it. It clearly states that many retailers can/will carry the line.
And the article doesnt say its an eb exclusive.

But we already have the evidence anyway, you can buy this toy from other places in Canada, like ages 3 and up, and its been that case for months. I dont really get the surprise here.

But if not an exclusive, then great! Cuz he's a great figure.
As far as I knew, I believed him to be an EB games exclusive too, but also aware that it may not be the first time that an exclusive ends up showing up elsewhere... heck, some might have made a deal with EBgames for all we know..

Does it matter? nah, I did my pre-order, received it, and it's all good for me....

If some people are getting their knickers in a bunch over it, I wouldn't bother, most times such people are wrong about what they go on about anyways, if only to have been so rude about it.

Personally, Red wing isn't one I care for much, the only repaint of the seekers I would have gotten, would be Skywarp, but I didn't want to go the Amazon route for him, and more than that, I hate that he comes in a "special set" only with targetmasters that I don't care for, so as much as I'd like to get him, the price tag just didn't work for me. At least if at TrU, the 20% sales would have brought him to a more acceptable price range.

TRU now has a listing for yet another generations sekects toy, hot shot.

Really hoping that means they get the others like Smokescreen and Redwing.

I will take that as a good sign for Red Wing showing up there sooner or later.



Hot Shot doesn't do it for me, but this is nothing but a positive.

Re: Siege Red Wing: Any news on a Canadian release?

TFSource's newsletter/flyer this morning indicates it will be selling red wing starting next month. So maybe there's hope for a run appearing through a Canadian retailer soon.

https://tfsource.com/hasbro-transfor...ing-exclusive/

The downside to TFSource and why I won't get from them is that their listed price is $55 us. Ouch

Re: Siege Red Wing: Any news on a Canadian release?

I personally don't think were getting it. It's cause I jinxed it and bought it from China for $50... lol!


I haven't seen Thundercracker at TRU yet so hopefully that comes in. Siege is almost done ALREADY!

Many have reported seeing Thundercracker at their TrU in the last week along with various others such as Astrotrain, which I've yet to see, but don't plan to go to TrU until a future sale.

I ended up ordering Thudercracker via Walmart.ca as it was at a lower price anyways and after I spent/wasted a day hunting him and never finding him, I kinda just admitted defeat.

Re: Siege Red Wing: Any news on a Canadian release?

Aliexpress is advertising a Black Friday sale, and Hasbro has a Offical Toy Shop on there.

Sale Price looks to be $44CDN, shouldn't have any taxes or duties on it. Probably some coupons during the sale to knock the price down a little more.

Might be a good option for some.
