It's that time of year again Seibertronians - time for sale after sale, tempting you into buying Transformers product you may or may not have wanted otherwise. While many of our site sponsors will be sending in their own newsletters with various deals over the coming week, we wanted to try and collect as many currently advertised deals for Transformers products as possible as we approach the Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday gauntlet.
You'll find each listed deal listed in the following format:
- Title of item
- Related image (not necessarily of item in question)
- Store name (Presented as a link to the particular item, whether or not it's already on sale), price, formats (for media deals), effective date(s), country or countries where available
First up - a list of items where multiple stores and online retailers have sales for the same item.

Gotta say, I'm not impressed this year. Mainly because there isn't anything for me to rush out to get or be excited for. For those going out to shop and spend time with familia and firends, Hope you guys have a safe enjoyable weekend.

Yup. It was $75 a month ago. Then Target had a 20% off sale while jacking it up to $82.50. I think they have it at 20% off again, but Walmart Canada still has it beat badly.

20 bucks for High Tide just might be the price that'll make me finally willing to pick up that set. 
Will it be priced at that in stores or only online?

That... basically summarizes (in a broad sense) American sales tactics at the moment, no company - or store - really wants to make less money on their product, so coupons are disappearing, big brands get excluded from good deals (Lego, etc.), and if there is a sale, you can be sure that prices were probably raised at some point recently to offset the sale. And 'sales' in general have disappeared, I remember going out to tru every time they had a bogo 50% on tf's, they were even 'fairly' priced for tru; that just doesn't happen (to my knowledge) anymore - anywhere

Edit: forgot to post what I meant to!
Toy Arena put their Black Friday sale up. Some good stuff in here. Link to the entire listing.
Highlights include $40 MP G2 Bees, $70 Cloud Roadbusters, $50 Generations Takara Go-Shooters, and $35 Iron Factory Blaster/Steeljaw/Ramhorn sets (I highly recommend this one). I have no idea what countries they ship to overall, but for US residents there's free shipping at $150.

Looks like they pulled them. They were out of stock when I did the round-up post, but I put the link there in case they came back in stock. Looks like they instead proceeded on their way towards oblivion :/welcometothedarksyde wrote:Suhweet, I picked up those seekers

Yeah, but they are still available at tru stores. I got a set there (they were already sold out online). What's great is that they didnt change the price tags, so they still all say 200$ swaying anyone who doesnt know of the sale away from them
Call your nearest tru and ask them to save you one, you wont regret it!

Oh I see, the reason I thought it was discounted was because this is the steal of a deal thread where we usually report discounted stuff. There is another thread to alert people when stuff is now available online.
Speaking of discounts:
The Platinum G1 Dinobots are now back online at Toysrus.ca for 99.99$!

Amazon has Trypticon as a lightening deal for another 2+ hours for approximately $120. 25% claimed thus far.
I've been waiting for a deal on this but actually think I'm going to pass and wait for the possible Titan class figure, assuming it wins the fan poll. Decisions!
UPDATE: Less than 2 hours to go, and this deal is only 35% claimed. It does not appear that this deal will sell out. Other toys (like Magformers) sell out in minutes. I wonder if this would still be the case if Trypticon wasn't an option in the fan poll.

the fact that many places like walmart and Amazon jacked up Devy's price is outrageous. It's like they jumped a week early and then tfsource picks up the slack. This sucks so hard. Amazon has him for $165 and walmart $199.99!! Dammit!
Really sucks since Mom only wants to order off amazon, and this thing will not go down! dammit cyber monday and the following weeks better be bringing some price drops, this is pissing me off

I think it's only available from Amazon through other sellers. Maybe Amazon burned through their stock when they dropped the price to $109? Hopefully you can find it at a good price.
On a separate note, TRU has MP Bluestreak at $49.99. Is that a "steal of a deal?"

I'm hoping that's the case and he will come back and be lower in price again. I so want him.
And I think it was mentioned that Bluestreak was indeed a steal, so I'd jump if you want him

I'm holding out for a Titans Return Trypticon, thanks. By all accounts, Trypticon clobbered the competition in the 'vote to see who gets released next' thing up at Facebook. They haven't released the vote results as of this posting, but I hope it's true...

I'm thinking the exact same thing and also holding out. I'm guessing he's not selling well if Amazon dropped his price 2x, once for a few hours and then basically all day today. Maybe everyone is holding out lol

My take on this is that they know full well this is the right price we was supposed to be at or at least anywhere between 120-140$.

Interestingly enough, Hasbro will reveal the result tomorrow. Let's see if we regret passing on trypticon at $120.

I dont get why one would have to pass or not depending on the result. These two toys are for totally different collections. Any modern fan who is used to articulation would probably not see the appeal to G1 Trypticon and any fan of the G1 toys looking for a G1 trypticon in their collection wouldnt be satisfied by the new titan. What I am trying to say is that these are two different toys for two different collections and I dont see why one would replace the other or getting one is dependent on another existing or not. Each will intereact with the toys of their own generations anyway. At least thats how I see it.
For me, the reason I am not too excited about Titan Trypticon is because his transformation wont be that interesting or involved. It's a very basic Transformer, just as Metroplex was. That of course can have tremendous appeal to some.

Those who missed out before have no more excuses. The usually super expensive HA Soundwave and Barricade 2 pack is on sale for a reasonable 100$US + shipping. Way better than the 200$ or 150$ it usually go for.
So if you dont want KOs and want a very premium paint job, this set is for you:

I hear what you're saying, which I agree with from a collector's point of view. But I consider myself more of a causal fan. My attachment is solely to the G1 cartoon that I grew up watching. I haven't seen 1 episode of any other Transformers cartoon and don't read the comics. As a casual fan, I'm really only interested in having 1 toy per character, and preferably an updated toy vs an 80s reissue. As long as it resembles the G1 character, I'm happy. I personally don't care as much about sophistication of the transformation.
So in the case of trypticon, I would hate to spend $120 + tax on a reissue and then learn that an updated version that I would find more fun to play with is coming out relatively soon. If i knew that a titan version would never come out, I'd be perfectly happy with the reissue.

Well in that case, you will never regret not getting this toy. Because even if they dont make trypticon next year they will the next. We now know that it is in their heads and at least past the planning stage (and probably design as well, since they have a 2 year productions schedule). So yeah, I would suggest you dont get the G1 toy, he's really more for nostalgia or collectors curious to experience older toys. Skylynx though is a rare exception where the original would be better than the upcoming update if the goal is for it to resemble G1 as much as possible (he was also re-released).
If we were a year and a half ago, I would have jumped on this, but with todays exchange...
