The small and fun new Transformers Tiny Turbo Changers Wave 5 figures, first seen in Hong Kong, finally made their way into US retail.
2005 Boards user Vector Oracle found a box of the latest wave of the Tiny Turbo Changers at Target in Albany, California. The full set consists of a nice mix of Bumblebee movie characters and some more from previous movies:
- Autobot Topspin (Dark of the Moon)
- Scorponok (2007)
- Long Haul (Revenge of the Fallen)
- Optimus Prime (Bumblebee)
- Megatron (non-movie / cut Bumblebee design)
- Arcee (Revenge of the Fallen)
- Hound (Age of Extinction)
- KSI Sentry (Age of Extinction, reuse of Dark of the Moon Soundwave)
- Crankcase (Dark of the Moon, reuse of The Last Knight Berserker)
- Shadow Spark Megatron (The Last Knight, purple version of The Last Knight Megatron)
- Iron Forge Steelbane (The Last Knight, blue and non-exclusive version of Steelbane)
- Cliffjumper (Bumblebee, red version of VW Bumblebee)
Time to check your local Target stores to try to find them! Happy hunting!

Hi so I am in the UK and am looking to buy series 5 figures, so anyone know online where I can find them?
Venixion
All Mirages confirmed?
Vector Oracle
No, it’s okay. I found the ones I wanted back when they came out. Thank you, though.

If you'd like and are in the US, I'll check Fred Meyer and see if I can get you a full set.

Whoah. Wasn’t expecting this thread to be resurrected. It’s a shame that after almost a year, these things are still hard to find on eBay. I still haven’t seen any of the Cyberverse TTCs at retail, so I sympathize for those who can’t find this wave.

The Steelbane is the best Steelbane we’ve ever gotten, god.

Whelp I've been searching for these forever with no luck, guess I'm about to get Toywizzed. In the history of their site have they ever lowered a price?
Diamondback
Stupid things aren't showing up ANYWHERE around me, only place that has 'em has a mountain of Cyberverse Series 1 deadstock.

Since it’s been a few months, I figured I’d check in here again and see if anyone is still searching around for these? ToyWiz got them in stock and I mananged to snag a handful for the reasonable $3.99 each before they boosted the price up to $6.99 (crappy business practice but whatever). Either way, I’m on the lookout for Megatron, Arcee, and Crankcase from this series to complete my set of anyone happens to have them for sale or trade.

Blind bag transformers obviously.

Can’t believe these still aren’t on eBay… well, I couldn’t find Arcee at least

Series 5 has also appeared in Canada at some WMs. C$3.92 each.
Hard pass on Hound. He has no camo paint at all and no cigar shape paint either like the pics show. He is a lighter green of the previous mold but exactly the same.
New Megatron and OP are decent/good. As are Long Haul, Arcee and Scorponok. Topspin is an Arms-Former. All but Arcee came with paper inserts. No idea where her paper was.
KSI is a near paintless repaint of Soundwave. Crankcase repaint as well. Hound is another repaint from the previous releases. CJ took the worst BB mold with legs that barely work and painted it red.
Purple Megs plane can pass as a Galvatron. Blue Steelbane is cool if you missed the Target 3 pack version.
Venixion
They're cute. I'd totally grab Arcee and Longhaul if they come to Wally-World.

The Toyworld website is claiming to have Wave 4, but I havent seen them in stores yet. Wave 2 came out here nearly a year after it was supposed to so I haven't lost hope yet.

Found them at a Target in Minnesota today. Got Prime, Long Haul and Skorpy. Wanted both Megatrons but they were gone. Prime is my favorite TTC so far, he looks great and has a unique and fun transformation.

I found them at two Los Angeles Target almost a month ago

Only a few west coast sightings at Target that I know of so far. I expect them to show up somewhere strange like Kmart, Kroger or that Calendar/ Toy store at the mall.
