Thanks to 2005 Boards member prime roller, we can report that Transformers: Movie Edition Tiny Turbo Changers Series 3 has been found at Taiwan retail.
This is the most recent series of Tiny Turbo Changers figures and so far, it has been spotted only in Thailand and Canada. Now we finally have our third sighting over the world. Wave 3 blind-bags were now found at Carrefour, Taiwan for 99 Taiwanese Dollars ($3.34 approximately).
While the first 2 series contained The Last Knight characters, this wave consists of characters from other previous live-action movies. This wave contains: Ratchet, Slug, Lockdown, Sentinel Prime, Bumblebee, Dino, Ironhide, Optimus Prime, Starscream, Drift and Barricade.
Happy hunting for all fans in Taiwan!

Made it to Carrefour today — and found the three I was looking for!

I like Ironhide's 'X' frame design. Haven't seen this yet with any of the ones I already have.
Lockdown's body stays locked upward strong enough to hold his weight. And the translucent plastic looks nice.
Barricade's transformation is ALL arms! Upon first look, I was wishing for another step at least, but immediately appreciated his cool look. Those big arms really do look great.
The letters on the packages are much clearer than on series one and two. The window on the back of Ironhide's was in the glued area however, so couldn't confirm by color. Didn't matter, the letters were easy to read, and all correct.
edit: instructions added (in case you couldn't figure it out on your own):

Oh I never saw them. I hope the third series makes it here then. I think the third series is coming out when the Bumblebee movie comes out.

If I see these, I will pick up a Ratchet to go with my Optimus Prime and Blackout. I am a sucker for these little SD toys, and I like the Tiny Turbo Changers because they actually transform (similar to the Q-Transformers toys).
Rewind
Same. I really want Megatron and haven't even been able to find him on Ebay. Glad to see the line is still getting released somewhere though.

I still have not even seen series 2 in the states let alone here in Houston. I guess they never made it here.
