Seibetron member Tytus sent us some information about a sale going on at Toys R Us on November 5th and 6th.

All Human Alliance figures are 50% off. The Warriors From Three Worlds box set is 50% off. It also looks like Legends figures are Buy 1 get 2 free. You can check your local shopper ad here.

The sale is November 5th and 6th only.

The Warriors From 3 Worlds pack is a Cybertron Scout set: The green Ransack repaint vs. Scattorshot and Repugnus (red Undermine/Dinoshout). I found it VERY strange to see this in the doorbuster ad because I've worked for Toys R Us since before Cybertron started and have never seen it there. The only place I've ever seen it is a Family Dollar store, and that was months ago. It was $25 there, just like the regular price the ad says is half off, making me curious: was this a TRU exclusive, but only in certain states? No big loss: no new decos, just 3 little guys most collectors already have unless they didn't want 'em. (I passed on Ransack GTS, or whatever he was)

Good deal on legends though...if you don't already have all of them too. And the Human Alliance will mostly be Skidz, which I got on sale last Christmas. So, whoop-de-slag...

I saw the three worlds pack about a week ago at my TRU. I already had two of the three so I passed. $25 is way over priced for this set.

Those are some nice deals. What we've got in Canadian TRU's don't even come close for these coming weeks. All we got is $20 off BOBB, $5 off PCC 5-packs, and $7 off HftD Voyagers.

Has anyone actually seen the "Warriors from Three Worlds" set at any of their TRU stores? I've only seen that set once, earlier this year around Memorial Day, at a Walgreen's. I think it was $19.99 if I recall. I almost snagged it because I had never seen it before but decided against it since it was just repackaged Cybertron toys. Interesting that it took these toys this long to find a retail home. They were first sighted back in September 2009.

Yes, this was, oddly, a Walgreens exclusive last year. However right now TRUs are carrying it. And yes, my nearby TRU just got a bunch of these in, so I am a witness. Oddly also, they came in with load of Animated deluxes, including the two new exclusives.

Yeah, my TRU has them also.

Half off HA is pretty awesome, though I only saw BB, Sideways, and Skids, who have been shelfwarming everywhere for quite some time now. And Barricade, but I already got him ages ago.

Dollar stores and KO's: A love-hate relationship with Transfans.

Is it a Family Dollar? Mine had the 3-pack, those same Robot Master KOs, and some of those 4-packs from Big Lots: the bug swarm, and that squad of Duocon-esque aircraft (2 form the top and 2 the bottom halves of robots, and they're supposed to be interchangeable but aren't; the cobra copter even has a yellow Battletrap head, but otherwise no parts I recognize)

The bitch of those RM KOs is they had to remove not only Star Saber's Brainmaster function, but some joints in his legs, meaning you can't do the vehicle mode Victory Saber combination (or is that called Leo Star?), and if you put the sword in his hand, the handle gets stuck and just snaps right off. You'd have to drill the fist out first, but it's still worth $3.00...that is, IF YOU BOUGHT IT SOLELY FOR PARTS, AFTER YOUR LEGITIMATE ROBOT MASTER VERSIONS! ...which I did. I have the original G2 versions of the RM Cyberjet and Laser Cycles too, so no guilt in building up my Junkion army.

Then again, Hasbro never sold them over here, so who cares? That helicopter is a type no TF toy has ever turned into, so kitbashers better have one of those 4-packs to tackle a custom Deathcobra...

Maybe its me, but I cannot find HA Sideswipe by himself, just in a set with HA BumbleeBee... which is listed out of stock and not marked down.

TRU Mansfield and canton, Ohio had them. I also recall seeing them in Lorain as well.

Hell they should put their expensive exclusives on sale

yeah its family dollar lol they sell the ko star saber in a three pack with i think spacecase and someother jet and victory leo with two motorcycle dudes...yeah ive seen those cheap four packs as well and they sell the ko RM singularly now for 2 bucks!

Stopped by 3 TRUs and one express & not a single human alliance figure, well found one skidz but not touching that with a 20ft pole. Oh and just a heads up its not all legends its only certain ones. My friend was planing on getting ravage, Starscream, & Sideswipe but when they were rung up the sale didnt come up. And the sticker by the toys just said buy 2 get one free on transformers optimus prime so no idea how it works.

Sideswipe is the only HA I can ever seem to find when I go looking and I've already got him (in fact I had him twice too cos there was a time on Amazon.co.uk he was only £7.25 so I got one for a friends birthday). I have Sideswipe, Bumblebee, Skids, Jazz and Barricade but just cannot find Mudflap anywhere except for expensive prices on ebay. My Skids figure wants his brother darnit and so do I cos I actually like the twins and their HA figures are great and I'd also just like to complete my HA set (I don't include the repaints of Bee and Sideswipe). bleh...

TJMax and Marshall's near Detroit still have HA Sideswipe, along with case 3 (the only one you'll find at ToysRUs) with Skidz and Bumblebee.

And I'll be slagged: I go into work at TRU today, and we've got 2 cases of the 3-pack that started this thread, for the very first time, just for this sale! And with no one else there who even remembered Cybertron from half a decade ago, it fell to me to explain, "Well, it's not so much good vs. evil as these guys being from different planets the TFs colonized millions of years ago, so through diplomacy..."

I did the buy one get two legends free deal. It was only on ROTF figs, not HFTD. When I brought them to the cashier I told her they were 3 for the price of one. She acted skeptical saying it was probably buy two get one free--but sure enough, it rang up as advertised! I was able to score three molds I never had: Ratchet, Bluesteel Sideswipe, and Power Armor Optimus Prime--now I can finally combine Legends Jetfire with OP! (I had legends Nightwatch Prime from the first movie).

Yeh, the sale was on ROTF figures only. I got Bluesteel Sideswipe too, along with PAOP and Bumblebee, but I loved playing with the little Sideswipe so much I snapped his leg right off

I guess I'll try to superglue it. At least he still stays together in alt mode, which I prefer anyway.
