I just got this e-mail from TRU:

News Credits: 273 · by **Delicon** » Sat Mar 20, 2010 9:35 pm

Seibertron.com member God Magnus just informed us of a special deal that Toys"R"Us is offering for one day only, Sunday, March 21st in its US stores.

As you can see in the ad, this deal is available "in-store" only and does not apply to online purchases. Still, if you live near a TRU this may be a great time to justify picking up that extra figure or two you've been holding off on.

For the best Transformers coverage on the net, including more great deals such as these, stay right here at Seibertron.com!

I am going to look in the morning. Might as well see if they have anything I need. Thanks for the update.

good maybe all the deluxe animated primes and bumblebees will sell so they have room to put out arcee and ratchet.

I just hope that I see ANYTHING that I haven't seen in the stores yet. Rochester has been a little dried up.

I'm going to make a trip later today and see what I can come up with. I'll let you guys know if I got anything good.

Good luck to you, sir!

Sweet......to bad the TRU in my area hasn't put out anything new in months. Might swing by to see if they accidentally got some Acrees and Ratchets in. Guess if they still have any reissues Insecticons I could buy a few to build a clone army.

I just got back from TRU and it appears all the "exclusives" sets are priced 5 dollars apart keeping you from getting a real bargin unless you want to buy the more expensive set or 2 of the same set.

Whirl and Bludgon: $25

Shanghai Showdown: $30

Mixmaster and Hoist $35

Gathering at the Nemesis 3 Pack: $40

Shadow Megatron: $45

I bought Shanghai Showdown and decided to save my extra cash for beer money.

The TRU I go to doesn't have anything I want, hopefully the sale will move some product so they can stock some stuff I do.

Anyone have any trouble with this? Just got a report from someone local that said the TRU they were at knew nothing of this sale...

I wish my local stores had something I needed.

When I made my purchases today, Toys R Us gave me a coupon book for $5 off a purchase of $25 (or more) during April 11-17, and April 18-24. There was some other Baby's R Us stuff there too. And I'm not sure what conditions you have to meet to get the coupon book, but that said, I have one

My local toys r us didn't know about it either but when i went to the check out it rang up "transformers promo" and gave me the 50% off. But like you said, the employees were clueless and the ad said nothing.

It was well-signed at my local TRU. Did your friend try running the items through a price scanner? When I did this, it said what the regular price was and had the word promo in there, also. At the register, it rang up no problems.

I ended up finally biting on HA Skids, Arcee and Mikaela, which will no doubt make my wife happy and Universe Exclusive Darkwind.

I like the movie twins a good deal with Skids being my favorite of the two. I think it's the green. Darkwind was to partner up with Botcon Dreadwing wasn't he? :wink:

Only because I'm an elitist.

Got TRU to price adjust a 3 deluxe purchase I made Saturday so I ended walking out with a free cybertron ratchet. A couple of TRU had "Buy 1 Get 1 Free all hasbro transformers toys" right next to the "Buy 1 Get 1 50% off all hasbro transformers toys" but I was in a hurry so I didn't want to sit and argue.
