I am, big time. It will have to go back to the old system now of seeing the toy in the store and waiting for the deal rather than getting it right away with my raincheck.

The thing Kurona (and this may be why they did this) is that all Transformers of a certain class in a line have the same number. So even if Wolfwire and Breakaway are different toys, TRU will see them as the same item. So I would ask for a raincheck for the item number and get a coupon that said I had 90 days to get a deluxe for, say, $10. And then I would be able to get the new deluxe right away for $10 when I found him in a store (even though he technically had not come out yet when the sale was on). So that was fun. but now its over. it will be like the states and the UK now where I have to wait for a sale to get the item I want and I will be restricted to what their selection.

Just came across a titans return Alpha Trion at a Scarborough Ontario Wal-Mart. Happy hunting.

This was learnt first hand as I walked into Toysrus today, seeking a raincheck for the deal they had on Titans Return leader toys (at $35 CAD), and was told that corporate has decided that rainchecks will no longer be given for Transformers items. There has allegedly been some foul play involving rainchecks and it got bad enough that Toysrus Canada has decided to stop this practice entirely. This was discovered in Quebec so let us know if you hear the same at your local Canadian Toysrus.

UPDATE

It seems it is only select Toysrus stores in the Quebec area. There is no widespread change in the policy, as confirmed by Ontario managers. This seems more like a case of managers passing their own rules as corporate mandate when it isn't the case.

Until corporate has any policy changes distributed in writing, the existing written policy from corporate always overrides whatever 'rules' a store manager or employee decides on. Make sure to contact corporate when a store won't follow existing rules/policy.

Still on the fence about getting the Platinum Coneheads?
You have no more excuses.

Sure? Because at that price, I may buy it again if I happen upon it in stores.

Wave 4 of transformers rid warrior class figures found at the toys r us in burlington ontario. I picked up Ratchet and bisk today.

The Toysrus Christmas catalogue was leaked on saveland.com and there are some sweet deals. The best is Combiner Wars voyagers for $9.97 ($7.44 USD). This is probably to clear out the massive restock they recently got of the Transformers Combiner Wars wave 4 voyagers Motormaster and Battle Core Optimus Prime, which is pictured below. There is also a $10 off deal on the Power Surge toys. That is it in terms of Transformers deals but the catalogue is filled to the brim with toy deals ranging from Legos to Power Rangers (also pictured below). Also, if the toys you want are not there, you can ask for a raincheck. Policy has been verified and all Toysrus stores should provide a raincheck if the toy on special is not found. If they are not willing to give you a raincheck, you can call and let Toysrus Canada know that you were not given a rain check for a certain product. Then they would escalate the case to the Executive Customer Relations Team.

Happy hunting and saving Canada!

You saying there is actually more here then the thousands of $15.00 cyclonus figures here?

I thought the white primes invaded all of canada like Leader Skywarp had.

Well you told karanbat

Well that certainly explains all those white Primes and Motormasters I sorted onto skids the other week

I wish!

white prime would make a very good base for Nova Prime.


I already have him but I'm not going to customize the one I already have.

Also in Alberta here in Toys R'us there are plenty of Starscreams, Skywarps and quite a few Thundercrackers too.


They come on sale sometimes although they are not right now but when they do if you guys want all three Toys R us is your place.

Man, I wish we had thundercracker. We only have starscreams and skywrps in Quebec and Ontario.

By the way guys, I was checking on amazon and dear lord, some of their prices are awful. CW Legends Thundercracker sold from amazon.ca is 14.99$ WTF?!

Amazon also wants $50.00 for Chromedome


The Hasbro version of course.


Should of bought him when I had the chance at Walmart now it's just the remains of wave 1 which is mostly Galvatron, Blurr and Scourge.


Good news is that Lethbridge has a lot of Blaster and Powwrmaster Primes here.

I am pretty sure he will come back. Look, I am going to walmart tomorrow, would you like me to get you a Chromedome if I find him? Shipping would be like 10$ or something, so it would be about 30$ or so plus tax.

Thank you for the offer Will I would love to get him but I only have a spare 10 dollars to use right now it was just my Birthday but I used some money to get the last Skullcrusher I could find (The one wave one deluxe that's rare in my area for some reason)

All of my other money has to go to other things and I just got some American money to get a Walgreen's Brainstorm when I go to the States in 3 weeks.


Thank you Will I'll think about it next time when I get more money I should be getting some soon.

Quick question do you think there will be any black friday sales on Transformers?

Hope he comes on sale around Boxing day (I doubt he will be out on Black Friday)

Yes, dont know on what though. Hoping for either fort max or a combiner wars gift set.

I went to one of our Walmarts today after I got some money they were unloading wave two deluxes here in Lethbridge I immediately bought Chromedome just in case he is gone by black Friday.

His wave mates were there too as well as the first time I have seen wave two deluxes (decepticon cassettes)

Unfortunately still no Alpha Trion or Astrotrain here.
