Too bad Toys R Us doesn't actually have transformers anymore. Or Target. Or Wal-Mart. Or anywhere.

You beat me to the comment. I wish they had the Movie Wingblade in.

Is this offer only in America?

The TRUs by me have been a bust lately, so I can't see any real good coming from this.

Then again if it applies to Star Wars TFs too, this would be a good excuse to go get a Death Star, and 2 more of Leader Brawl.

Gotta bolster those assault ranks!

Anyhow, let me go reread this...

If TRU only has movieline toys, which I have my fair amount...I will pass this one. However, if the local TRU has other lines, I might consider it.

Not much of a selection left for me, but I'm done with movie figures anyway.

My TRU has squat so this sale means nothing

Might be a good time to pick up some of the Real Gear figures I was on the fence about...

by **YoImLegend** » Sun Feb 17, 2008 1:41 pm

I know they've given official release dates for animated at Toy Fair, but it seems like every store is doing sales like this. They are really trying to clear their shelfs out, maybe to cycle through the death rattle of the movie line a little quicker for... something???

It's like you reached into my face and took my words. But not as weird.

wow. too bad we don't get anything like that in our country.

The TRU's by me haven't had anything in about a month or so.

Why don't do this kind of offer/promotion later in August perhaps when we have Classics 2.0

News Credits: 2 · by **Moonbase2** » Sun Feb 17, 2008 10:41 pm

I saw this today, and though TRU was packed to the gills with TFs, they were all movie line. No interest!

Or at least when Animated shows up? I have zero interest in the movie line, and I'd think that most of those who do would already have most, if not all, of the figures.

Woot! I just got a TRU gift card for my birthday. Here's hoping the local TRU has some worthwhile items.

by **tygertone214** » Mon Feb 18, 2008 12:31 am

Toys R Us dosn't have anything these days anyways. Fred Meyers here in northwest just had the same sale, buy 2 get 1 free, except it was for ANY ACTION FIGURE including Transformers, Star Wars, G.I. Joes ect.... They ususally run the ad every 3 months or so. Good for buying leader class in bulk for kitbashing or Ebaying!!!!!!.

I might see if they have any Allspark Scouts, they're growing on me. Buy 2 get 1 is a good deal for Scouts.

by **Mirage22** » Mon Feb 18, 2008 9:08 pm

That's a great deal, but my Toys R Us alsways has crap or nothing at all.

by **barricade2218** » Tue Feb 19, 2008 6:09 am

My TRU had very little TF's on Sunday when I went, hoping they will restock before the sale is over.

Well if my TRu was a wee bit closer (50 miles each way) and actually had toys in stock (last check there was NOT a section for Transformers) I might look into this.
