That is absolutely pathetic on their part.

Izzat a joke? Jack up the price while offering a discount? It's misleading the customer at to thinking they are buying a discounted item when in fact ther prices are more or less unchanged!

D@mn sea slugs!( sorry sea slugs, nothing personal)

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

Suhweet, I picked up those seekers but I can't find the dinobots on ToysRus' website!

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 :/


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.

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!

I just wanted to add that the PSN is also having a black friday promo with Transformers: Devastation for $24.50 for both the PS4 and PS3. There is also a 10% promo code (FH24P5BDR6) in the same link off the entire purchase. The Sale ends 11/30 and the 10% off promo ends 12/01.

The CLUB SITE HAS CRASHED.

I'm fairly pissed.

Yep. Guess everyone's trying to get stuff all at the same time.

Kinda feels like SDCC Exclusives Day on HTS, eh?

Yup. Difference is, at least HTS would load eventually. The FunPub site is straight up unavailable.

Bought, thanks for the heads up. Just need to find a cheap Shouki now.

Let's all be honest here. Who is surprised FunPub is having website issues?

Not sale kimosabe "availability". Try finding this at hlj and amiami. It's all sold out. If you are interested, get one now.

Gone after 6 hours (sorry for the late update.)

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$!

http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index.jsp ... d=62275816

All Generations Leaders are 50% off on toysrus.ca. Just bought Armada Megatron for 29.99$ (22.44$ US).

Buying Macross/Bandai products at retail IS the discount

Though it now has its own thread, the TCC Black Friday sale is still going on with everything still available except the Old Snake/B.A.T.s set.

Was able to get me a Legacy set.

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.

FYI: Here is the link for the Trypticon deal.
