Thanks. This had helped me get Skylynx preordered at EBgames in my city. They only found it by the item number here.

Was that today? I tried to pre-order last week and they told me the window of opportunity had closed.

June 5th was when I put in pre-orders (1 for me and 1 for my brother). Must have shut it down since if the expected release is mid-june.

Date on the receipt looks like June 2.

Confirmed as well that street date was today so confirms why the preorders stopped. However doesn't seem to have actually made it to any stores yet.

I'm looking forward to get the call! All the pictures I've seen makes me look very forward to getting it.

Let's hope it's soon!

I wish that they'd have more upcoming figures available though.

And I don't expect that Skylynx is an exclusive but so far, I haven't seen a single trace of any news for Toys R Us or Walmart carrying it.

Comparatively, I've only seen Jetfire at TrU, so it's interesting to see who will end up carrying it and with EBgames being the first main stores to even have it available at all.

It's strange that TrU didn't do any pre-orders like they did with Jetfire (and Omega, which, for upcoming Titans Scorponok hasn't been listed either). But then, TrU's website is still a freaking mess of a disaster after over 6 months... they still haven't fixed my account.

Jetfire has been on WM site forever (sourced from WM), but you're right, I don't believe I've ever seen one physically on WM shelves

EDIT -> I imagine it has to do with how WM never has titan-class figs, either

I only ever saw a single beat-up CW Devastator a ton of years back, in their "these boxes are too big" aisle
(prob a return from online?)

In my area Toysrus and 1 of 2 EBGames both got Jetfire. Funny enough both actually still have Jetfires. Never saw one hit Walmart though.

Looks like EB Games.ca and some stores got a restock of ECTOTRON, the Transformers/Ghostbusters crossover figure
so those that missed out on him now have another chance.
