For those who have yet to pick up Leader Figures Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Jetfire, today is your lucky day. Wal*Mart.com has taken of $10 US from the usually priced $45 Leader Class figures, thus they are now on sales for $35.00 US. Each Leader's product page can be found in the links below.

Optimus Prime
Megatron
Jetfire

If you are a bit hesitant in buying any one of the Leader Class figures, than you'll be happy to know that Seibertron's famous galleries will be updated with Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Jetfire within next week. It is unknown how long the Rollback will last, so get the figures while you can!

Wow, there sure are some good deals coming around lately. Good stuff. It's a great time to get the Leaders if you haven't picked one up yet.

I wanna do a rant and a rave on how America always get's this stuff, yet they buy the figures before ANYONE else. Permission to do so?

This is great... except that my Wal-Marts don't have Jetfire. Only Megatron.

Thanks for this. I've been waiting for an excuse to buy me the Optimus Prime figure. I just placed the order online.

Why wouldn't Americans buy this stuff first if they get it first? Seems to make sense to me. Or am I reading your post wrong?

I would be happy about this rollback, but I just finished off my Leader class figures by buying Optimus last week!! :-x

Somewhat, I'm meaning that the Americans already have them, yet get deals to cut down the prices. Seems like a rip off to me, coming from the North-East of Scotland where we get NOTHING! >:(

I saw this earlier. The prices were dropped on the other classes as well. Scouts were $7.44, Deluxes were $10 even, and Voyagers were $19.97.

Oh, I understand now. Hmm, blame it on WM. It's the company that's doing it so it's not like Leader class figures are getting sales all across the country at all stores.

I feel your pain! I'm in Canada, neighbour to the United States, and I'm always drooling over the deals available at U.S. specific stores, brick and morter as well as online. So close, yet so far.

The last good sale I was able to take advantage of was 30% off of Deluxe figures at a local WM and another local store about 2 months ago. I picked up a bunch of TFA and Classics/Universe Deluxe figures.

I'm so far regardless. I may sound like a pussy but it sometimes makes me wanna cry since the only thing I am truly into is the Robots in Disguise yet I can't get some of the best ones while the knuckledraggers around me are "Xbox this, Big Brother that" :sad:

I hate my town placement.

I can't really gauge that as a 'sale' for those. The shippings ends up nullifying the $2 from the usual pricing. However something like a $10 differential with the Leaders is something that shipping can't take back.

It's the same prices in the stores, too. I should have mentioned that's where I saw them.

Well, than that's pretty good news for Americans!

by **dumbprime** » Sat Sep 05, 2009 10:01 pm

yeah i saw this in the store leaders 35.00 voyagers 19.95 and deluxe 10.something.

by **Alex Jones** » Sat Sep 05, 2009 10:22 pm

I'd go check out my local WM, but the Deluxe are filled with Chromia / Wheelie / Skids.

The only rollback I've seen so far is for the Leaders. None of the other classes at my local store have been affected, as far as I know. I'll be heading up there tonight, so I'll double check.

$35.00 is a GREAT price for the Leader Class figures. If you've been sitting on the fence, waiting for the right time to get Optimus, Megatron, or Jetfire, now's the time.

Especially Optimus. He's worth it at $45.00, even more so at $35.00

Wow, pricedrops. We do have them in Holand, we got a ton of TFA Ultra Mangus/Shadow Blade Megatron for 24,95 euro.

But our movie prices are:
Basic: 9,95 euro = 14,23 dollars
Deluxe: 18,95 euro = 27,12 dollars
Voyager: 29,95 euro = 42,86 dollars
Leader: 59,95 euro = 85,78 dollars

And by the time they let Movie leaders drop in prices, they are all sold out

Luckily TFA and Universe deluxes are 12 euro's now. That's a good thing.

The prices are the same in-store!

This might be instore as well. I havent gotten any notification to retag my transformers displays, but I finaly broke down and picked of scorponok, and he rang up $10.

By the way, you can also just buy the figure from Walmart.com and do site to store shipping, and then the shipping will be free! I'm going to pick me up another Sideswipe!
