I thought they fixed the canopy hinge when they re-released Weirdwolf in Titans Return (there was a second run during TR).

I'm in Vaughan and never saw wave one in-store. Had to Grab em online when they where fleetingly in stock. Only got hardhead and brainstorm because I didn't have them from the titans release. If you have the titans these are no big loss.

But, but, but, the retro boxes!!!!

Oh and the different paint decos and Japanese Headmasters.

However you are right. If you already have these then you aren't missing anything. I only bought them for the retro packaging, but the other changes were a bit helpful in trying to justify the purchase to myself.

What? Wave 2? Did wave 1 ever release lol?

Re: Transformers Generations Retro Headmasters Wave 2 released in Canada
 

Yes. I never saw Wave 1 in stores myself but they were for sure on the website. (got a Brainstorm online)

Re: Transformers Generations Retro Headmasters Wave 2 released in Canada
 

Yeah. They were hardly ever in stores in most places (my local Walmart had them once that I know about, but another local boardie got the only set that was put out before I made it to the store.) Most peoples' best bets were to wait for the random online restocks and hope they could get in on one of those windows before they sold out again in like 20 minutes. I snagged a Chromedome online in the very last restock like a month ago and got the other 3 from that same boardie who picked up the set from the Walmart because he had already ordered Brainstorm, Hardhead, and Mindwipe online and needed to offload those after picking up the boxed set.


Basically it's just more trash 2020/21 distribution issues, pandemic or not.

Re: Transformers Generations Retro Headmasters Wave 2 released in Canada
 

Axis of Action Toys (a 3P seller on Walmart) seems to have the only stock for wave 2. These are Walmart exclusives, which means these guys are buying out the stock from online just to flip them at 3x the price ($71.94). Scalping at it's finest. Walmart is actually stupid for promoting this on their site.

Re: Transformers Generations Retro Headmasters Wave 2 released in Canada
 

they were on hasbro pulse on weekend. Looks to be sold out now but keep an eye out there too.

Re: Transformers Generations Retro Headmasters Wave 2 released in Canada
 

lucked out and got all 4 of wave 1 when I saw them one day, never saw any restocks since. ended up getting wave 2 off ebay (ugh) cause i don't trust lightning to strike twice. modern distribution is incredibly sad.

Re: Transformers Generations Retro Headmasters Wave 2 released in Canada
 

I did not hear that it was ever fixed.
