If you plan of braving the crowds on Black Friday you can pick up a PCC 5 Pack plus 2 Pack bundle at Wal-Mart for $10.00. The deal is listed on page 15 of their recently posted Black Friday advertisement.

Unless either a Grimstone or Spastic Over-Run and anything beyond 2-pack Wave 3 is on the shelves, I won't bother. I considered myself lucky to even see Mudslinger there!

Black Friday. Black Friday. Black Friday. That falls on the 25th of November this year? Yeah...I got plans. I got big plans. Going to at least 4 maybe 5 auctions that day. Gonna make money! Make money selling stuff from defaulted storage bins. Who knows what I will find.

good deal but i doubt any of it will be from the last 2 waves you know the stuff that wasnt released, probably going to be the ones every one has or doesnt want cause they're repaints of repaints.

So you get a 5-pack AND a 2-pack for just $10?! Wow! I'm still looking for Spastic and Heavy Tread. I'd LOVE to get them for $10!

Think I might take a trip down to the US for Black Friday. When is that? Last Friday in November, right?

No PCC's are worth braving the endless flood of morons and d-bags who go out for black friday. All retailers do is try and sell off old stock to make room for new stuff.. People damn near come to blows over old back stock...

pass instantly

I haven't seen any PCC figures (2 or 5-packs) at my Walmart for months now...

You're right, but I wouldn't worry about these selling out. I just went to Marshalls and TRU yesterday and they have a few stragglers from the PCC line. Even after all this time. Even with Wal-Mart's pricing, they're just not going to sell out, no matter how hard they try. No need to rush to get these, I'm sure they'll have plenty left over after the crowds die down.

EDIT: Forgot to mention something important about WM's Black Friday this year. Starts at 10 pm Thanksgiving night, but other items such as selected electronics won't be available until 8 am. There's other times as well.

Generations only, at this point. Kohl's, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Ollie's Bargain Outlet all carry Reveal The Shield. Can't guarantee what they have, but they do carry them.

Thank god I utterly loathe PCC's. I bought Bombshock way back when and just...hated him from start to finish when I eventually sold him off. Then I saw Grimstone and thought "Aww cool, its that rare PCC everyone wants, maybe I'll give the line another try" and ended up hating him as well, SOLD! Honestly the only PCC I like is Skyhammer, and ONLY as the magnificent scout class figure he represents, I'm gonna find a way to cut those blue combiner chunks out from under his wings and repaint the ones on his heels. Now if they had Heavy Tread, I'd go for the sale simply so Warpath could have a little side kick. But considering that..this is Rockford and the "newest" of the Transformer lines take awhile to make an appearance. I can easily pass on this "deal" and avoid being trampled by the sub-human garbage that frequents Walmart every night between the hours of Dusk to Dawn.

yeah, no. I refuse to go to Walmart on the day when all the crazy shopping "heathens" are out. Saving a few measly bucks on those toys is totally not worth it. The deal basically works out to buy one get one free as their both regularly marked $12-15 (at my walmart anyway). I'll just wait until they put the deluxe figures on buy one get one free like they did last December, I find that far more worth while than these little guys. And the Duluxe guys make better Toys For Tots gifts too.

If it's of any help, the Dallas area Walmarts (and Targets) mostly have Kup, Wheeljack and some lone Skullgrins hanging about. At least they're not discounted yet, so Sky Shadow and Junkheap have a chance of appearing.

Are they really planning on stocking TF:2(?) figures for the buy 1 get 2 free deal WTH?

The Butterscotch pony looks like an awesome good time. YEE-HA!!!!

Sun Nov 13, 2011 1:50 pm

Did Toys R Us suddenly find cases of those ROTF figures in a warehouse or something? If I find myself in the store then I'll take a look at what they have but if current stock is anything to go by then its buy 1 Scalpel get 2 Scalpels free.

More like getting rid of all those Tuner Mudflaps in their warehouses. I actually spotted one a week ago!

Scalpel's a Scout, so he doesn't count.

Why don't they donate them to Toy for Tots? It would at least be a nice gesture and they should be able to write it off.

They'd rather make money. Lol. But, that said, they did just donate $50,000 worth of gift cards to Toys for Tots (or so they announced on their facebook)

I might pick up that Ultimate Optimus <.< Dunno yet xP

Sun Nov 13, 2011 2:24 pm

Scalpel doesn't count? Then I guess Toys R Us is clearing out what's left of Sea Attack Ravage, Tuner Mudflap and Stalker Scorponok.

I actually need all three, but sending my in-laws to hunt for them is a bit mean...

RotF and PCCs? These are some weak deals.

$10 DotM... Autobot? Uh, $10 Voyagers is kinda interesting. Granted there were all those Target coupons recently and I don't think many new Voyagers came out since then.

Sun Nov 13, 2011 4:26 pm

You can pick up Ultimate Prime from Gabriel Bro's for $49.99 right now. Why wait till Black Friday in a TRU mob? Not a real deal considering it can be had now without getting beat for something in a mad rush.
