Toys R' Us Exclusive Perceptor and Insecticons Sighted at Canadian Retail

Thanks to Dees for sighting at a BC Toys R' Us. The re-issues of some Generation 1 favourites, Transformers Universe Perceptor and Insecticons! These figures are Toys R' Us exclusives so let the hunt begin!

See these and other Transformers being sighted in our Canadian Transformers Sightings forum.

Re: Toys R' Us Exclusive Perceptor and Insecticons Sighted at Canadian Retail

These stuff is pretty interesting. I've been looking forward to G1 Reissue Perceptor, but when I look at the sighting thread at BC, which I don't live there, it's !!! $49.99 !!!

To me, a price like $50 totally wouldn't worth it for a plastic reissue figure. If it is Die Cast, maybe I'll reconsider....

Yes please! So excited on these Insecticons! One of the few G1 molds I actually was thinking about getting. Just glad I don't have to get a second hand set now.

I'm sure lots of people will complain about them being overpriced, but at least you don't have to own a set that someone else had their greasy mitts on.

What is the retail price on these? I was in a TRU today and didn't see these.

Yeeeaaaaahhhh boooooyyyy!!!*

Finally some news! I guess those of us not on the west coast will have to wait just a bit longer. But when I do see them, it'll be so worth it.

Flava FLAV!!!!!!

*I'm a little excited for these

They're $49.99.

Which one will be harder to find in the long run guys? I think I only want to buy one of the two sets. Originally I wanted the Insecticons but Perceptor looks great too...

Perceptor I'll pass on, but I MUST have the Insecticons.

Nice find Dees, are these really all plastic and no die-cast?
