I've reconciled my grievance with the seller, so I'll be withdrawing the offer to sell Ramjet for the moment, and hopefully I'll get a Skywarp in a weeks time.

Though to be honest, I'm not 100% confident I'll get him...

oh,sorry for my mistake. would you mind hold it for me? i think i mixup your ramjet with other's skywarp. i may need you help me to send the ramjet to him. anyway, I'll send you a ramjet right away.



I don't need a Ramjet, please send a -Skywarp-.

I will hold the item for you and wait for further instructions. Please get back to me with a tracking number as soon as the Skywarp has been shipped.


What on earth am I going to do if I end up with TWO Ramjets? -_-;;; Welcome to facepalm city.

Yep, think all TRU do. I went into the Chatham store and they had Prime and the black version of Megatron. I ignored them and picked up some Universe figures.

Yeah, the Liverpool store also had the Shadow Blade Megatron for £40.

Not a great fan of the Universe figures, myself, but I do quite like the Legends line. I can't work out how to transform the G2 (?) Megatron. He's a bit fiddly for my big fingers.

Toys'R'Us UK SALE

Postby Dead Metal » Fri Mar 06, 2009 11:29 am

Motto: "Don't do drugs, beer's cheaper anyway!"
Our own member Primal_Grimlock says that the TRU in Liverpool, England has Transformers Animated Leader Class figures and Rollout Command Optimus Prime for GBP 19.99 each.
This isn't just limited to Liverpool but seems like a TRU sale in general.
If you're in the UK and want some off the Leader Class toys, then this is the time to buy em!

Stay tuned to seibertron.com for all your Transformers related news!

Glasgow's Silverburn Tesco have Roll Out OP for £25 and Leader Bulkhead for £20, Argos are also doing Bulky for £20. Tesco also have the US Target 'exclusive' Animated Deluxe + 2 Ani Legends in, but they're looking like shelf warmers to me. Are Target and Tesco connected? They had the Legends OP & Megatron Target one in last year.

Didn't know about ASDA and the Uni Deluxes, I feel a visit to ASDA coming on.

yep my local one had 2 end shelfs full of them :) but not many Acid storms think there must only be one per box of him :(

plus if your wallet can handle it they could also have Marvel crossovers venom,green hulk,iron man and spiderman going for 14.88ish each, and Starwars crossovers going for about the same price as stocked at my local ASDA

on the Tesco note i have seen various target exclusives in both my local ones over the last 2 years or so. They must just have dealings with target for bulk buys thats how the big shops get the deals with hasbro and technically they are still target exclusives in the USA.

Not a question for me to answer, never knew much about the value of 'master tfs.

I really hate it when they merge this thread with others. Puts everything out of order and confuzzles me.



Nowt new. TRU had Safeguard, but I'm waiting for it to come down in price, RB Ultra Magnus and SB Megatron aren't part of the half-price sale, and no sign of Inferno as of yet.

I hope I got the right place to post this here! I'm probably not telling anyone anything new but Deep Space Starscream in silver finish is only £9.97 at argos at the moment. He isn't in the magazine / catalogue though. Just have a look around and in the last 4 Argos's I have been in in Liverpool ( both the city centre ones ) Widnes and Runcorn, they had a basket with about 10 - 15 of them.

Its a nice transformer, well cooler finish than the original Movie Starscream. Still got the same odd face that looks like a robotic arsehole though. Damn. lol
