BTW, I mentioned this on the Toy Haul thread a few days ago, but probably should've put it here. Just to piggyback off the Target 20% off coupon:
"Also, for anyone interested, in addition to the 20% discount on Target toys, they also have a 10% off wish list items. You need to download their mobile app to get a unique 1 time code. But it works and you can stack it with the 20% off. Snagged the coneheads for $59 cuz of tax. The bad news is that Target doesn't have a lot on their website. They do have Computron, which should work out to a little under $80 after tax."
Because 20% off is good, but stacking another 10% off is better. That's how I got the seekers for $59 after tax.
Also, I just noticed that CW Computron on Amazon has slipped to $73.05 as of this writing, and it was $74 when I started typing. Would love to see this slip into the $50s so I can pick it up for the hands and feet, sell off the bots.

I'll keep my eyes on it.
Yea that was my initial thought. I think the price is dropping b/c there is a 3P seller offering it for that low price with Prime shipping. When that happens, Amazon will sometimes lower their listing to price match. You should still buy it from the 3P since there is usually no tax on that, with the awesome Amazon guarantee since it's Prime.
Down to $72..............

I am curious to see if it is a nationwide sale at Walmart, or just near Pittsburgh where they are on sale. It could be in response to what others have said about Target (I don't live close enough to Target to shop there regularly.) I couldn't find anything on Walmart's website to confirm.

Congrats! I need a walmart near me! The target by me will likely not carry it and TRU won't likely go that low.

They dont need to since they know people will go to them for price match from both Target and Walmart.

We did report that this seems to be a widespread price drop, but I'm glad you found the wave 2 guys! I live about an hour and a half from Pittsburgh and I have yet to find any wave 2 guys of any sort

It's odd.....I never once saw Ultra Magnus at retail. His wave was very poorly distributed.
Alpha Trion is in stock as well. Astrotrain is out of stock.

Just pointing out that if I order a PAPER CLIP from HTS, this Canadian will be charged a 30$US base FedEx shipping fee. It increase $ after $ the more you add things. They also charge taxes. All in US$.
Just imagine what they would charge if they'd ship oversea.

Also. curious: The IDW Transformers (edRID) comics have barely gone down in price, yet every other transformers TPB released has dropped pretty substantially. Why?

Because they are still hot.
And man, if any of you play the stock market, its like this thing with Amazon and Computron but 1000 times more stakes. A judgement call I made last week now made me lose a potential gain of seven thousand dollars

Kmart Australia Holiday toy catalogue by user and almighty Admin Burn that span multiple Transformers lines, from Combiner Wars, to Rescue Bots, to Titans Return. Check out the advert for the sale below, including specials on the Combiner Wars G2 Bruticus set, and Titans Return Deluxes and Voyagers. Transformers have been strangely absent from most store's holiday catalogues this year, so it's refreshing to finally see a full-page ad from a major retailer.
Tell us in the comments below if you jumped on any of these specials, and if you find any Transformers sales in the coming days, please send them our way via our Contact page!

nycPrime wrote:I have a question. Is Masterpiece Wheeljack for under $60 a good deal? The catch is that it's from 3P sellers on Amazon without Prime shipping. It looks like most, if not all, of the 3P sellers are based in Japan. The cheapest one is $53.43 with estimated delivery of 12/20-1/18. And since it's not Prime, it's a bit more of a hassle in the event there are issues. If it's Prime, Amazon takes care of you like they sold it. If not, they make you deal with the seller before they step in. What do you guys think? Anything else I should be wary of?
https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing ... dition=all?tag=seibertron07-20&
While they make you deal with the seller first, you still have all that amazon service behind it all, making sure it all works out. It reminds me a lot of e-bay. I bought stuff that wasnt using prime and while I did talk with the seller first, when I realized it wasnt going anywhere I called amazon, they stepped in and I got my money back the next day. So you do have that security no matter what.
And Yes MP Wheeljack for under $60 is a good price. Its even better than if you imported it yourself from Japan at their lowest price possible (which would be $60).
Also, unlike other MPs, he is easy to tell if KO'd since by the time he came out, the KO company wrote Takasa Tony on the box for easier idetification.
I wish you all the best in this purhase of what I find to be the best MP figure.

Those are the slowest shipping dates. I've ordered like that before off of Amazon, and it does take that long.

UPDATE: He arrived!! And he's glorious. The way he goes from thin, small truck to large, chunky robot is amazing. And for a cool $22 with shipping, ($15 without) he's even better. Picture time!
Croquet happens to be one of Magnus' favorite passtimes. No one is brave enough to tell him he has terrible form.
The obligatory spin on the headmaster-with-bot-in-background shot I'm becoming to be known for.
I'll be posting more over on the Pictures and poses thread here in a minute, so head over if you wanna see more.

That's why when I see something on "sale", I always look at how much the thing go for elsewhere. To see if the sale is genuine or total bull.
RIGHT NOW, I HAVE A HEGEMON FOR SALE! ONLY 100$! THAT'S 99% OFF THE REGULAR 10000$ PRICE!
ACT NOW!
Also, I've seen many sites where they put something on "sale" and it's either 0% off or 1$ off (of something that is expensive). Just to slap the "sale" label and to put the price in shiny red. Who fall for such tactics?
