I downloaded the Target Cartwheel app and signed up, but I can't find the 25% of Transformers coupon anywhere in the app. I'm a total Cartwheel noob, so any help is much appreciated!

There should be a banner on the front page that says cartwheel offers, go thru that and go to the toys section icon, go thru that, select the tf coupon. Then along the bottom, go to the wallet area and it should have a barcode that your coupon is tied to

Just a heads up that cartwheel only works on purchases you buy in store or for target.com orders available for store pickup. So for example, the siege preorders will not work with the 25% off since they are shipping only.

However, the save $10 or save $25 will work fine for the preorders.

Just to do some math for peoplle if you buy one leader class figure at $50 and use the $10 off coupon AND then the cartwheel you'll be paying $30 for a leader which is literally 40% off

It has to be $50 - so 1 leader would not qualify since its $49.99.

Sounds like a perfectly good excuse to get a battlemaster for the battle effects ;)

In my experiences with cart wheel, you have to scan the item then add that promo to your account. Then make sure at check out they scan your cart wheel.

Edit: just searched the app and found this

Yes they stack. But only for items in store or available for store pickup.

Additional oddity to note: The date for Thundercracker and Springer are different. I'm sure that will, ultimately, not be the case.

I checked out four different Targets tonight to try out these amazing deals. I didn't find everything I was looking for, but I found a good chuck of it. My first purchase was for Studio Series Cogman, Shatter, Scrapmetal, and Jetfire. The regular total, including tax, would have been $118.07. With the $25 off a $100 purchase plus the 25% Transformers figures, I paid only $68.43, saving myself $49.64, or 42% off in total! That's pretty incredible! I almost got Jetfire for free, basically.

My second score was another Siege Prowl and five Battle Masters for more weapon effects parts and customization fodder. This time, I could only use the $10 off a $50 purchase coupon but still could stack that with the 25% off Transformers one. This reduced the total from $53.87 to $34.89, saving me another $18.98, or 35% off altogether. That's pretty close to the price of one Siege Deluxe Class figure. This also proves, btw, that the threshold for a $50 or $100 purchase INCLUDES the sale tax, so if you buy a $49.99 Leader Class figure, you can still get the $10 off, because the tax will automatically be added when you ring up the item at the register. If you live somehwere without sales tax on toys, then I guess you would have to buy a little something extra.

I'm hoping that I can find Studio Series Rampage and Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime before the sale ends. Those were the only figures I couldn't find in the four stores I tried tonight.

Man, what a deal at Target. I had already found and bought Siege Sixgun, SS Scrapmetal and SS Cogman at full retail within the last month, but I kept my receipts. So today, I got Siege Sixgun, SS Scrapmetal and 2 SS Cogmen, along with a couple LOL toys for my youngest to get me up over $100. With teh 25% cartwheel on TF's and the $25 off $100 toy purchase, my total came to $67 and some change with tax included. I'll be returning Siege Sixgun, SS Scrapmetal and one of the SS Cogmen with my original receipts, which will be about $65 in returns after tax.

So I basically ended up with 2 LOL toys for my youngest and an extra SS Cogman for about $2-$3. Sweet. This brings me up to 3 Cogmen now (1 TLK and 2SS), which means Lione, Shuffler and Ramhorn all get bodies now!!!

Unfortunately I found my Wave 1 Siege leaders about 2 weeks too early. I'm just past 90 days from purchasing them at Target, so I can't do the return game for those, which would have been sweet.

Unfortunately I don't have any photos, but some of my local Walmarts are trying to get rid of their overstock of SS 38 Rampage, because of course, all the BB Prime's got purchased right away. At least 2 of my local stores are selling them on clearance for $17...but others are not. (Several stores near me have 8-10 Rampages, something I have not seen in a long, long time)

Unfortunately I feel that Hasbro will see this as a reason to keep pumping out popular characters like Bumblebee & Optimus. We as fans say we want more variety, but unfortunately the reality of the situation says otherwise.

Additionally, I mentioned this in the Legends thread, but TFSource currently has Legends Grand Maximus for $210

https://tfsource.com/legends-series/lg- ... d-maximus/

I hope that deal lasts long enough that I can take advantage of it, would need a few more weeks to save up.

DuDE! What?! I need to go to Wal Mart. I want to get a second full Devastator for work.

Anyways.

I think that the SS-38 Prime is a special circumstance because it's simply a GREAT toy. Same with the Siege one. A blessing and a curse. I mean, yes, children that would otherwise not buy a Transformer toy are still going to buy Primes and Bees, but quality of the toy is playing a role here. Afterall, there are still several Cyberverse Primes sitting on the shelves.

I had the same experience with Voyagers at Walmart, though my Bee Movie Optimus was $21.

And Grand Max has been on sale at that price for a few months now. I'm thinking about picking one up at the end of the month.

I got mine last week with some funds from my refund check for this price. Still have to crack him open; he's in cue behind MP BW Megs and Big Powered.

I would recommend, based on your statement of saving up for it, to apply for and use Paypal Credit if you already have a PayPal account set up. 6 months , no interest, if paid in full at the end of or before the 6 month deadline. It usually is an option when using PayPal at most retailers. You can use the saved money you Already have to pay off a chunk once the charge appears then meet or exceed the minimum payments to pay him off well before the due date.

No harm, foul or interest on your part if done correctly. This will let you secure your fig at a sale price without delaying the purchase until stock quantities dwindled and the pressure is on.

Hope that helps and good luck! ;)^ ;)^ ;)^

Just searched every Target and Walmart I can, and there is no more sign of Siege Voyager Prime or SS38. Dang, right when I was going to get one. Welp, guess that means I won't be able to take advantage of that sale :oops:

Yeah, I wasn't really in the market for anything at the moment in general retail, but happening upon a Target yesterday all the good stuff was gone. Still Plenty of Cyberverse and BB movie toys though.

Yeah, still plenty of Cyberverse and BB here too, but there is also plenty of Studio Series and Siege as well. Mine still has both SS and Siege Voyager Megatrons, as well as the SS Leader, SS Jetfire, all the new deluxes (Cogman, Shatter, WW2 Bee, and Scrapmetal), both Wave 1 Siege Leaders, and literally every other Voyager there except the Primes I'm looking for :BANG_HEAD:

I don't think distribution is to blame here (or it could be, considering there was only one of each Prime there), and more of a "Pass on it and it's gone forever" thing.

I am mad, especially since SS38 is going to restock in May, and nothing on Siege Prime. Maybe it's karma or something
