I called TRU locally to discuss when the local store would receive MP-10. I was told my regional distribution center was aloted 514 items. I asked if the local store would receive any and I was told it would depend on how many were presold!!!
In the past I have had difficulties getting figures because the employees at my local store would buy items before they ever are placed on the shelves. Now I am getting jobbed by this presale!
I am so upset at TRU and Hasbro. I called TRU customer service and they cannot even find the presale in their system. I am not even able to complain about it because they cannot find an item to attach the complaint to.
This is a PRIME example of how a company should not do business.

The 20% off is not valid for MP Prime, it says in the "exclusions" that it cannot be applied to preorders, which is what Prime is, so it's full price. And with a limit of 2, at full price, I wouldn't exactly say they're encouraging scalping. A limit of 2 is perfect in my opinion. Some people buy one to keep in package & one to open, some like to display an object in both modes and some are picking one up and one for another friend/collector who wasn't able to be online just at that right moment. For all those people, 1 is very frustrating so I really think 2 is the best way to limit scalping yet make as many fans/collectors happy as possible.

Not to start a fire, but that just seems greedy. "You should sell me two because I want two" sounds like "I deserve to have two of what is going to be a really hard-to-find item, and someone else doesn't deserve one." Just my two cents, that particular clause doesn't do much to strengthen your argument.

While submitting my final order the page just blanked out. I did this 2 more times to make sure my order went through and the same result. I tried one more time and then ththundercracker was unavailable. Toys r us blows man wtf???? They took both of them down at the same time. When the Optimus was first listed I preordered it and got a cancellation in my email a few minutes later so I preordered it again and got a confirmation. What the hell kind of business is this?

I display my toys together, one in robot and one in vehicle/ beast modes. I've been doing this since 1994. To say that I'm greedy for the way I collect or display my toys is just "unprimely.". Just because we don't get what we want doesnt make everyone else who bought two of the same toy "scalpers. Just voicing my opinion.
By the way , I pre-ordered two mp Optimus prime when it first came up, and found 5 thundrcrackers at a nearby toysrus (only bought 2).

(Fingers crossed) true story I haven't had the best experience from toysrus I bought leader class ironhide from the online site and everything was banged up. For those who got mp thundercracker did it get to you in good shape?

I have always had good experiences with ordering from TRU as far as items arriving in good condition. My MP Thundercracker arrived in great shape and so have all the things I have ordered from them through the years. Its just getting the orders in and not getting them cancelled that is the tricky part
