Gah! I just jumped on KSI sentry from Amazon for $22 earlier this week. Now to figure out whether trying to play the Amazon return game is worth it to save the extra $8.

Yep, it is.
Hahaha, I was about to say the same thing. Of course it is ;)^ :ic$:


Yep, plus wifey will gladly make the return for me, she wants that 25% off Kohls coupon they give you when you return at the Amazon kiosk inside Kohls. Win-win!

Congrats on making it 6 months, that is no easy task.
Definitely CONGRATS! I was a stay-at-home Dad when I first joined Seibertron. It helped me get through a lot of it to be honest. Some days it was my only adult contact. (If you consider talking about toys adult. :lol: )

Stay-at-home parent is no easy task indeed! Whether you're a Father or a Mother. Good luck to you Caelus! You have certainly earned that Redwing. ;)^


Thanks guys :-D I can honestly say that this is the happiest I've ever been in life. It's far more rewarding than grad school.

I remember a lot of folks saying they couldn’t find this at retail. Well, it’s cheap on Hasbros eBay page.

Also, what do you think of this becoming a monthly or bi-weekly feature covering multiple stores? I'd really appreciate some feedback in the comments.

Conceptually I like the idea, but unfortunately prices and availability fluctuate too quickly to be realistic.

I feel the current way of newsing "strike while it's hot" works well to get the word out. Those do a great job of pointing users to this thread.

A quick look on Amazon right now and it looks like they are price-matching some of the Walmart price-drops.

Perfectly fine question, but online only unless you can get a price match.

I ordered from Amazon when it was $22. Now I'm waiting on one from Walmart for $13.87 which I'll be returning to Amazon once it arrives.

TR die cast Thunderwing is a winner on TLK Nitro Zeus and TR Overboard is an almost perfect color match for SS Thunderwing.

Yeah they do look good. Thundercracker is keeping his head, but Zeus or Boss might be doing a swap. Thunderwing is in Zeus' cockpit right now

100% agree about the Thunderwing. Overboard I hadn't considered though, might have to take a look.

Clearance on Most Transformers Siege Toys at Walmarts Across Canada

PostPosted: Sun Feb 02, 2020 2:54 pm

Walmart Canada seems to be gearing up for Earthrise, with putting clearance prices on most of the Siege toys. They are all on clearance on Walmart.ca, but you can get even better prices in store. As you can see from my receipt below (please ignore my soft drink addiction), deluxes were found for $14 (about $10 USD) and voyagers were found for $24 (about $18 USD). In this same store, the leaders are also on sale for $39 (about $29 USD). Others have reported similar prices at their local Walmarts in Canada. And this includes ewven the latest releases from the line like Astrotrain, Crosshairs and Apeface. The G1 releases like Soundwave and Astrotrain are not discounted, they are both $70, and the Studio Series voyagers and leaders have been given a $5 price hike bringing them to $45 and $75 respectively. So, you win some you lose some.
