Pretty sure this is the first sighting. If not, please close/lock I found both Ratchet and Arcee at the local Rossy, here in good old Stephenville, Newfoundland. $23.99 Each.
That's typical. They order enough wave 1 for a year, and we will be lucky to see any other waves at all.
8 months. Transformers Prime Deluxe Ratchet & Arcee Released at US Retail - Transformers News - TFW2005
Weird, I saw Wheeljack at a Walmart in Penticton, BC before summer, so I assumed this wave was here forever ago.
Wheeljack's in wave 1. Arcee & Ratchet are the ones that come out in the 2nd wave, neither of which have been sighted in the country until now. Well, aside from comic shops or whatever. ... and yeah, I bought this stuff online long ago because after 4 or so months went by, I gave up on seeing it locally until Christmas if ever.
Of course wave 2 has just been released at Canadian retail, since, you know, I just bought one off BBTS earlier this week.
Also, I've never heard of Rossy, so unless that's a nickname for something else I probably don't have near me, this might not even be a wide release.
No it's ok... it's just hard to... believe... It's finally here? I guess I shouldn't get TO hopeful or over excited... until people start seeing them in Zellers or Wal-Mart... Never heard of the store you mentioned. Is it local to NFL or something? Is it possible they just got a shipment themselves? But that yellow stripe over the package.. it's multilingual isn't it? So that is a good sign the packages ARE meant for Canadian retail. Thanks for the info man. I'll be sure to start looking out for them again...
Oh good god. New Prime Deluxes released in Canada. I never thought this would ever happen. Hey Hasbro Canada your kind of late to the party.
I mean good god Prime wave 1 came out in Februaray and 8 months later Wave 2. Seriously Hasbro Canada get on the freaking point. Luckily I bought my Arcee and Ratchet in the States back in August.
