Major Price Reduction for Transformers Combiner Wars Toys at Toysrus Canada

Posted by william-james88 May 6, 2016 at 3:18pm CDT 19,779 views
Something funky must have been put in the Canadian water, because ToysRUs has now decided to follow Walmart's price drop for Combiner Wars Legends, Deluxes and Voyagers. In store and online, a deluxe is now priced at $11.99 CDN (9.28 USD) and voyagers are priced at $19.99 CDN (15.47 USD). These are not discounts but price drops and this is for all waves one may find in stores. Several stores have not updated their prices on the shelves, but as the bill below will attest, the price change has been done in their systems. They are not advertized or promoted in the flyer or on the website either. As for online, only Cyclonus and the wave 4 deluxes are available, with Onslaught listed as not in stock (yet).

Hey guys, long time no post. Just a heads up we got Victorion in at my work today at a price of $149.99. Not 100% if she street dated since we had a similar SNAFU with G2 Menasor

Pics will follow eventually(posting from my phone)

You cant, its not in the flyer, you can only raincheck weekly specials. This isnt a discount but a new price.

Is ok, I still have my rainchecks for 22$ :DANCE:

But seriously, if they changed all their prices o the computer then he should still be this price when he comes out. He's listed at that price online right now.

Alright thanks for that heads up. Anyways after some digging she's street dated for in store on the 15th, for those like me that didn't know.

Luckily that's a Sunday and I always work those :twisted:

Sorry I can't post those pics, might be a nono for me

Also came across Onslaught and Scattershot the other week at my store, but there was only one of each, and grabbed Onslaught

When talking quality and size, CW beats those generations toys out of the water.

In my opinion, the weakest TF's in the past 4is years were FOC Jazz and Grim. Not that I mind them personally. But aside from the mold abuse in CW, I think its been a friggin solid line.

Hopefully US based TRU stores will follow suit. There's a reason why nobody is buying the deluxes at TRU. It's because they're $18 apiece! See my Death Tweet regarding their overstocking on 'Stomp & Chomp' Grimlocks. They never seem to learn. They stock tons of figures that nobody wants and wind up having to unload them at a loss because they charged too much for them initially and turned them all into shelf warmers.

While figures have def shrunk, and this gen line def was the weakest. They were still better in terms of qc and i personally like them more in respect to cw. Much better bang for your buck. :BOT: :CON:

Now THAT is real shelfwarming. None of that modern "They haven't sold any XYZ since I was here yesterday!" kind of crap I see a lot of people complain about.

I dont see it, espcially when I think of the hip missassembly for Skids and the terrible heel problem with Windblade.
