Attention Canadian collectors! We can report that the new Transformers Kingdom Deluxe Red Alert has been spotted at Canadian retail!
Twitter user @BillRitcey77 and 2005 Board member Hotconvoy found the new Kingdom Red Alert at EB Games stores in Ontario and Quebec respectively. Red Alert will be a Walgreens exclusive in the US and it’s scheduled for release in August this year.
Happy hunting!

I’ve also found that, in the days since, the tab has become better. I think it’s just a matter of wearing it in

Mine doesn't tab securely either. It says in place well enough for me to not be bothered to fix it though.

Quick question witch ebgame did you find in Qurbec and Ontario?

So, I just picked one up at my local EB Games. Is the chest tabbing thing common? Also, any way to fix it?

to be fair I usually find these In Missouri before anyone else which is weird!
all are dead
Greenlight, the amazon exclusive?

Except Walgreens don't ship internationally. I'm keeping my eyes open every day for a listing, but so far no payoff. From past experiences, pre-orders will sell out immediately and I won't get one at all.
*cough*Greenlight*cough*

So since Walgreens has it in the US, itll be likely a month or two even before we get this, itll be a slow and painful burn the first week, maybe 2 weeks? Start in California, maybe skip some states entirely. Some with leftover old stock wont get it, some will.
Then Walgreens.com will list him. Itll go quick. People wont be happy about that, or the shipping charge. People will worry about orders not getting fulfilled. People will get theirs from the site.
Then almost 80-90% of the country will start getting him at once.
This happened with Ratchet. Then with Bluestreak. So I am calling it for Red Alert. Is it ideal? Nah, but if this is the thing that gets me Red Alert that looks this good? Ill start my rounds of going to 2-4 walgreens as I pass by them.

If by “the usual places”, you mean Walgreens.com, then yes. If that’s not what you meant, then know he will be available on Walgreens.com at some point.

C’mon Walgreens pre-order!!!!
got lucky last year with that on Bluestreak.
Painless process, showed up fast too!
I’m pretty sure like a solid month before hitting retail anywhere!
Cal
So….. this is going to be available to order online at the usual places, right?
soymonk
Oh nice! Not bad at all then!

Because of course it is!!

It's getting to the point of comedy with how many figures are getting leaked and even hitting retail before we're "supposed" to know about them. Grindor, Jolt, RotF Sideswipe, BB Thrust, and Road Rage have all been leaked with what seem to be production samples, and T-Wrecks & Red Alert are hitting retail. At the glacial pace they're revealing stuff, it's no wonder stuff is getting out there.
