There is a lot of new Transformers sightings in Canada in the past week. The most important would be Power of the Primes Wreck-Gar, which is now confirmed to be an EB-Games exclusive (t)here. He is $24.99 CAD and $22.99 for Platinum members. The sightings comes from Dingd0ng over at Cybertron.ca.
Speaking of exclusives, Walmart is getting a lot of Hasbro exclusives this year in Canada, including the G1 reissues and they are showing up in stores. The minibots had been found before and are continuing to spread across the country but now we also have confirmation of Starscream appearing in stores, thanks to fellow Seibertronian Shajaki who found him at Emerald Hills Wal-Mart in Sherwood Park (Alberta). He is priced at just shy of $50 CAD, which is far pricier than expected, considering the Platinum conhead three pack was priced with each seeker being around $30 CAD (which is around the same price the G1 seeker mold sold for in the 80s when considering inflation).
Your's truly also found the Wave 3 Prime Masters and the Ultra class Cyberverse figures (Grimlock, Starscream and Bumblebee) at Walmart as well, in Montreal, Qc.

I don't think it's empty, I think it's just hard to see Grimlock with his coloring, almost like low light camouflage.
I have the "Blame Canada" song from South Park the Movie, playing in my head now for why we can't find any of these in the USA.

As for Power of the Primes, every figure from the main line has now been accounted for since both Firestar and the wave 3 legends class figures have been found at Toysrus. The wave 3 Studio Seies figures as well (though those have been available for order at Amazon.ca for a little while).
Also, and most peculiar of all, the Transformers Authentics toys have finally been found in Canada. For the moment, they have only been found at Giant Tiger which is Canada's answer to Ollie's. Only the smaller ones were spotted so far and are priced at $10 CAN a piece, which is far from cheap.

Move Masterpiece 7 Volkswagen Bumblebee was also found in Canada, at Toysrus. It is unknown if this toy will also not be available for Quebec, due to language laws which have already rendered Barricade unavailable.
Also Canada is up to dat on all Cyberverse releases with Wave 2 warriors and one steps being found at Walmart and Toysrus respectively.
Lastly, while there is currently a sale going on for select Transformers at Toysrus, there is an additional discount of 15% on ALL Transformers toys. For isntance, this makes Ultimate Cyberverse Megatron only $25 CAD which is about $18 USD. Not bad for a solid feeling leader sized figure.

Better buy the full sets, bro. I bet the asking price will be at the very least 40$ EACH.

Do you mean each cassette or each pair of cassettes? Either way, doesn't matter, because this will be way fucking cheaper than buying the vintages or even the knock offs.

I meant each cassettes. Then add shipping on top. Seriously, just get the sets. Then sell off the Bees you don't want. This is the best course of action.

Yep. There's folk like me who just want the Bee figures and not the tapes. I was quite happy when I found the gold VW Bee for just £20 completely untouched and never removed from the box with only the tapes removed from an eBay seller a couple weeks ago.

I'm not going to buy Predaking nor Nemesis however. I have to keep my collection to a minimum because I plan to get some stupidly expensive things. Moreover, Amazon only take credit cards. And I swore an oath to myself to never ever use credit again. For anything.

This is the only size class found in Canada for Siege at big box retail stores but more are sure to follow. There have also been new sightings for the Bumblebee movie toys the past weeks like Energon Igniter Power Series Shatter (jet) and Power Plus Series Shatter (car). Clicking on those links will bring you to Walmart.ca where they can be ordered if you wish.
Also concerning Transformers in Canada, both the Bumblebee movie line and Studio Series line are on sale this week at Toysrus. The Bumblebee toys are up to 30% off while the Studio Series line is 25% off. The sale ends Friday the 14th. These toys and characters are proudly featured in Toysrus' promotional material, which you can see below.

So Mandrake allow DHL shipping service only. Furthermore, your packages that are already on their way from everywhere are pretty much fok'd.
Let's hope those over privileged asses fix their crap soon.

Also, while EB Games had the Siege leaders, they are now showing up at Walmart as well.
Finally, the trailer less reissue of Optimus Prime has been found at Walmarts in Ontario and Alberta for $69.98.
