I'd order them, but I can't get any coupon codes to work.

BBTS just filled my pre-order for these two. Ha! If I skipped BBTS and ordered these from HTS, I would have saved $10

Such is life!

just got skyshadow. could care less about the repaint wrekgar. the shipping was free without even using a coupon. the tax was less than a dollar. so all together it was less than $13.00 better than retail. i did try a coupon though. it would not work.

Ordered! Chances are I won't be seeing either one in any stores around me. Free shipping FTW! :grin:

Aaaand they're ordered! I was doing the ole brick and mortar hunt and was getting annoyed.

I cancelled with BBTS and ordered from HTS. I'm only paying BBTS prices for hard-to-get items or items I can get in advance. Not things that come out at regular retail first.

That makes perfect sense, but I've started pre-ordering standard retail releases from BBTS for several reasons

a) Save gas money driving around for retail releases
b) Save time looking for retail releases
c) Convenience
d) Superior customer service
e) Ensure I get toys I want that might not make it to local stores, or might only make it in small quantities. (How many people found Wreck-Gar on the pegs? Or Blurr when he was initially released in Wave 4?)

And it's FREE SHIPPING to boot!

I put these on my Xmas list 2 weeks ago, hopefully family hasn't finished buying already...

Oh. Well in that case, I'm returning my Black Shadow and Junk Heap to BBTS for store credit then

Ordered and thanks. I went looking today and found nothing. Did probably a 30 mile radius. I did manage to get a set of DCUC wave 17 for nearly half the cost. So not totally empty handed. Less exciting for sure though.

So glad to see this. My local stores are always months behind other areas and we seem to only get the dregs left at the regional warehouses. Everything around here is still chock full of early waves of DOTM. Besides, as others have pointed out, with the free shipping from HTS it works out being less than retail for once. This just made my day and my order is now in. They still have the SDCC and NYCC exclusives in stock too for anyone wanting them. I was tempted to get the NYCC set just for the G1 colored Arcee, but I just couldn't talk myself into it. I have a feeling Sky Shadow and Junkheap won't be in stock long seeing how many views this topic has had, so good luck to everyone

Well, I was not able to cancel my BBTS order before it was added to my PoL, but I did order 2 additional Junkions for the army from HTS.

With free shipping, I figured "why not?"
The price will be as good or better than retail.

These will be fun to mod!!

Yep. Works out at around half the price after all's said and done.

Just picked up these 2 at wal mart

News Credits: 1 · Fri Dec 02, 2011 7:24 pm

I bought Sky Shadow earlier this week for 8 bucks with my 5 dollar coupon, but checked 3 other Targets and a Walmart and found no Junk Heaps, so I was very happy to see them on HTS at a fair price and no shipping charges. Saved me lots of time and gas, so I bought 2. On for home, and one for my desk at work.

Thanks as always to Seibertron, and fellow members for giving the heads up on this.

I lucked out last week and found these figures at my Walmart. I bought them on sight. I also bought one more of each today on HTS so I can have another mint in package.

Fri Dec 02, 2011 8:11 pm

Missed out on Junkheap it seems, and pass on Skyshadow for me. Have yet to even see a Wreck-gar mold in person.

Thanks for the heads-up! Found Junk Heap at Target tonight, and I just ordered my Sky Shadow from HTS!
I usually preorder stuff from BBTS, but they were just asking too much for this duo. I'm very pleased with how this worked out.
