If it was indeed a last minute thing, I could see it changing for the next wave.

As yeah; otherwise the card front looks like the US cards - without a comic there you have this huge empty space.

Re: Transformers Generations Wave 5 Released at Canadian Retail

Meh. I wasn't really interested in this wave anyways.
I'll probably pick up Trailcutter, but I have enough OP, BB, Megatron in my collection. I'll save the money for something better.

Re: Transformers Generations Wave 5 Released at Canadian Retail

Is it possible that these IDW deluxes in this packaging are just left-over from Fan-Expo and dumped to the Sherway TRU. Haven't seen any sighting of these IDW deluxes in other GTA TRUs .

Re: Transformers Generations Wave 5 Released at Canadian Retail

The comics were never a selling feature for me. I don't read comics so even if I want a figure or two from this wave, I'm certainly not going to hunt down the US releases. As for the packaging, mine usually ends up in the recycling bin inside of a day so I don't care even more.

Re: Transformers Generations Wave 5 Released at Canadian Retail

Maybe I'm just lucky but I've found the comics packed into the figures at my comic store.
