Longtime fan artist Cheetimus has provided a sighting, but not just any sighting, oh no. He's presented, with photographic proof, the first US retail sighting of Combiner Wars Deluxe Wave 1, at his local Target in Maryland.

He tweeted about it, which you can visit by clicking on the image that we've embedded below:

Wave one consists of three Aerialbots (Firefly, Sky Dive, Alpha Bravo) and one Stunticon (Dragstrip), all of which combine with Voyager Class Optimus Prime to form Ultra Prime, which you can see in our galleries here.

It may seem odd that an East Coast store would see a sighting of these first, but I was the first to find Energon Leader Class Galvatron all those years ago and in PA no less, so it's not unheard of, just rare. If you have a sighting such as this, share it with us at sightings@seibertron.com and remember to post your findings in the sightings forum as well, and if you have anything news, please send it to news@seibertron.com and you could see your name up here and earn a news credit!

Not only are Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Voyager figures showing up at UK retail, it appears that the same chain - Smyths - is also starting to stock the Deluxe toys too. The images below come from fellow Seibertron.com user Primacron's Little Helper, and the comments are from the UK Sightings thread - make sure to flag up any sighting of these newcomers in the appropriate section and forums!

Update time. I've been in touch with the manager of the Cardiff store, they've had a delivery today and are expecting two tomorrow. He said they had Skydive and Fireflight. Assuming that all four deluxes are packaged together that must mean that they are on the pegs (didn't ask ) and the others have sold out, I think. He's put aside those two for me and will put aside the others if they come in (long story but suffice to say, a favour is the least they owed us ). So, I'll find out what's there Saturday morning when I go to pick stuff up. I'm telling you this because I don't believe for a second that this is the only Smyth's getting all these deliveries so, without wanting to give false hope, it may be worth staying in touch with your local store if you want CW for Christmas.

I've just got back from Smyths and they had all 4 deluxes in stock, I grabbed the three Aerialbots, but passed on Drag Strip.

I got the last Skydive and Fireflight so might be worth getting them to put Slingshot and Dragstrip aside for you as well.

We've seen in hand images of the upcoming first wave of the Transformers: Robots in Disguise Warrior class already, but Seibertron.com user leokearon has shared another couple of comparison shots and packaging views - after having spotted Grimlock, Bumblebee, Strongarm and Steeljaw at Smyths in Ireland (priced at €16.99, approx $20)! They are also available on their online store, including Warriors, Legions and One-Step Changers, could this also mean they'll be hitting other European retailers soon? Let us know if you spot any across the world via our Sightings section and forums.

With the Age Of Extinction toyline coming to a close, news of finding new toys for it isn't exactly something you'd expect to see right now, but considering it's a Construct Bot set? Even more surprising. Well, that's exactly what we have to share with you today!

Now, we present the Wal*Mart exclusive Construct Bots Bumblebee with Strafe VS Decepticon Stinger set, found by Seibertron staffer ScottyP and he included an image, of course. Here's what he had to say on his find:

Oh look, something else I didn't know existed! Walmart exclusive AOE Construct Bots Bumblebee with Strafe vs. Stinger. BB Rider figure is a slight redeco. Strafe has a G2 style deco similar to the Target exclusive Grimlock Construct Bot but it's not a direct homage to a canceled toy like that one was.

Bought at a Walmart in Raleigh, NC for 19.98. UPC is 653569983408

If you're looking for this set, now's the time to search, and if you do find it, share your sightings with us by posting it in the sightings forum! Remember, if you find something new and exciting, send an email to us at sightings@seibertron.com so you can receive credit for the find and you'll get your name posted in the article for all to see!
