We have another one today, cortesy of Seibertronian Ironhidensh, that pertains to US Target stores. Apparently Target is selling Titans Return deluxes at only $10USD. This might be in preparation for the holiday season, or to clear things out before wave 2 or 3 comes. Check out his photo down below that confirms he picked up Titans Return Blurr at that price. It's currently unknown wether or not this sale is available anywhere else in the world, or even in the United States, as this could be a regional thing, but if you find anything at your local Target, please send it out way or leave a comment here!

What does that make wj88 then?
an employee
My TRU would never have me as an employee, I think they hate me (and my awesome legal cost saving methods!).
Anyways, calling anything from TR shelfwarming is absurd. The line is way too young and its impossible to know if the stock you keep seeing week after week is the same stock or a restock.
And if the TRU employee tells me a TR stock has been there for like a month or two (it falls under the definition of "months"). So technically it is shelfwarming. One month, then it ain't. 2 months up it's months then it is shelfwarming...by the definition.
Now if you will demand TRU inventory records, from your's truly then I'd be happy to oblige but only if you also demand it too from other posters who use the term.
This is what happens when people argue how many angels can sit on a needle's head
None of that matters. A shelfwarmer is not defined by how long he is around. In the 80s you kept seeing Ramjet year after year but its not because he was shelfwarming, hasbro just kept pumping these toys out, rereleasing them, and they kept being bought and restocked.
A true shelfwarmer is a toy that is still on shelves when it can no longer be orderd, hence why the definition expresses that it was to be from another line when having the new line next to it. A good example would be ROTF toys still being around when DOTM is out, or all those simplified AOE tfs still being available when The last Knight toys come around. Those are shelfwarmers. You can all have your own views on a shelfwarmer and I wont police it. But if anyone wants to use it by its actual term, then the months is not as relevant as them appearing alongside a new line of toys. When you look at it that way, there arent that many shelfwarmers really. And plus, its not a great word to label a toy. I mean, we are all hoping parents and collectors find these TR toys this christmas season right? So why would there be despair to still see PMOP on the shelves?

Either way the shelves are warm.

Its based on what has symbolized the word in the past. The ROTF toys were shelfwarming because they were alongside DOTM and Transmetal Scavenger was shelfwarming because he was still around once TM2 toys were all gone.
If a toy is a shelfwarmer because its around for 2 months then that means every toy is a shelfwarmer. And if every TF is one, then none of them are, since its no longer a term that can be used to single out specific toys. That renders the shelfwarming term useless, since they will all be there for 2 months or more. Its nonsense since a wave comes out every 3 months on average and a store would definitely hope for their shelves to always be packed. Especially for the holidays. Like this one:
If that Blaster is still there when that third part of the trilogy comes along, then I will call it a shelfwarmer, not before. But I am not the boss of anyone, you can call them whatever you want. I get tired and dont care much anymore, just like I dont care that people out there think the world is flat.
PS, more pics can be seen in the brag thread, my TRU was looking mighty pretty today

However for only $10 I was able to bring myself to pick up the ONLY other figure from the Titan masters line that I wanted...Hardhead.

Like, maybe it's something really subtle; but I've got Universe Cyclonus and Bluestreak and quite a few Cybertron figures, and I honestly don't feel anything that different about their plastic compared to my Thrilling 30, CW and TR figures. Even my FoC Soundblaster feels fine. Or am I missing some other point?
