It is time for our usual world sightings round up! Cyberverse figures are showing up in Poland and Chile, while new Studio Series Deluxes hit Russian stores. But this time we have some interesting finds from Chile: Leader Class Siege Astrotrain in Earthrise packaging has been revealed.
- Earthrise Leader Class Astrotrain and Optimus Prime, Cyberverse 1-Step Wave 7 And Botbots Series 4 in Chile – Thanks to 2005 Boards member Lapin we can report a new Siege Astrotrain in Earthrise packaging. It was available to buy at Hasbro’s booth in the Super Fest Chile event this weekend together with Earthrise Leader Class Optimus Prime (images via Transformers America Latina Instagram story). Also, the new Cybeverse 1-Step Changers Whirl and Bludgeon were spotted at Tottus Supermarket of Mall Plaza los Domínicos. To top it all, the new Botbots Goldrush Games series 4 5-packs were available at Lider Supermarket (Walmart subsidiary).
- Siege Wave 4 Deluxe In Mexico – Siege Impactor and Mirage have been spotted at Liverpool in the center of Mexico city (30% off). Their Wave partner Barricade should be out too. Thanks to 2005 Boards member IronWaveJRG.
- Cyberverse Spark Armor Cheetor & Sea Fury In Poland – 2005 Boards member AerialbotSlingshot found Elite Class Cheetor & Sea Fury at his local Smyk in Sfera shopping center, Bielsko-Biała. A bit expensive, for around $40.00.
- Studio Series Voyager Wave 8 In Russia–Studio Series SS-54 Megatron (2007 movie) was spotted at “Detskiy Mir” (Children’s World) in the shopping center “Perovsky” by 2005 Boards member Sovietbot. We hope that his wave partner Mixmaster will surface soon.
Happy Hunting one and all! Keep reporting your sightings all over the world on the 2005 Boards!

By the way they were just shown (and possibly sold in a limited way) at an event, we don't have Earthrise in chilean stores.

Sounds about right.

I'm surprised Hasbro didn't show off the Earthrise Astrotrain packaging earlier.

I think brick and mortar retailers will start to try to clear their shelves of Siege figures to make room for Earthrise. Walmart dropped their prices on Siege deluxes near me and I’m going to grab a second Barricade and a few others while they’re at the best price.
Mattymo
it does
It’s widely available online with retailers and on the pulse. It’s not a variant or to be treated like one

Does this mean siege boxed astrotrain which only seemed to get a token release will be the highly sought after variant in years to come then?

good ol fashioned jingoism… the kind of thing autobots fight for, right?
Dream Warrior
Huh, can't tell if he still has the battle damage or not.

No, third world counties have Transformers.

I like the Earthrise packaging, cool tones are a rarity in Transformers packaging I think.

I'm just sick and tired of seeing this stuff all over and I cant get one figure. So it's not so much HASBLO fault but the fault lies in retailers to. And i live in west Virginia which might as well be a third world country

I mean, it be like that sometimes.

Yea I know but I dont care about other countries

Figures a 3rd world country like Chile would have more Generations figures than any of my Targets and Walmart for the past year…smfh

That is the situation I am in, which means to complete the map I will have to spend $50 for a piece of cardboard. (groan)

You do realize there are Transformers fans outside of the US, right?
Lore Keeper
I just realized something. If you already own Siege Astrotrain, you'll probaby have to buy Astrotrain again to complete the Transformers universe map… Not cool.

So this is why theres no U S stock of transformers HASBLO has them all over the globe and not where they belong
