I just found out that my place of work, Tuesday morning, is going to have ROTF and Animated Voyager-class figures on our November 2nd sale for $12.99. The ad depicts Stratosphere and Shockwave, but there's no way to tell exactly what we'll have.

There will also be a large selection of Star Wars figures and roleplay toys.

I hope ToysRUs. There's a butt load of transformers at my location.

He already said the store: Tuesday Morning. It's one of those "Market Six" stores like Big Lots!, Meijer, TJ Max etc. It sounds like the sale is mainly older stock, which is good news for me

Oh! I have never heard of it...I thought he meant the sale was going to start Tuesday morning and used bad grammar. :lol:

Hmm... I'll have to find one near me. I almost completely skipped out on Animated and ROTF and I regret it now. Sounds like a great deal. I want TFA Shockwave, TFA Starscream/Skywarp, TFA Cybertronian Megatron, ROTF Grindor/Blackout, ROTF Ironhide, ROTF Desert Tracker Ratchet, and ROTF Mixmaster.

If you guys need a website:

Tuesday Morning

They've carried Transformer exclusives in the past, mostly the discount chain Universe toys.

Technically, they do. Tuesday morning is when they do new stock/stock rotations and (I think) price adjustment, hence the name.

The name Tuesday Morning comes from the store's original business practice of only being open on the first tuesday of the month. The company's founder would travel around the world, gathering overstock merchandise and selling it out of a warehouse once a month. to honor the store's origin, every store opens at 8am on the first tuesday of every month(save January and July) to hold a big sale.

This sales event is the reason we're going to have the TF voyagers. The bulk of them should be coming on our truck tommorrow.

Now that's an interesting history. Thanks for the headsup.

I've found a box of TFA Voyagers: Earth OP, Grimlock, Lugnut, and Blitzwing. Still haven't seen any ROTF, but I figure those in the know might be able to tell which wave we're getting.

Also, you guys should see the ad. Shockwave is horribly mistransformed. Poor Stratosphere's tailfins aren't folded down either.

Found the ROTF stuff. what we got is:
3 optimus Prime
2 Grindor
1 Long Haul

This isn't exactly what every other store will have, but all of them will probably come from the same wave.
