Fellow Seibertronian Whirlkick has some fun news for fans in the Uk looking for deals. Here is what they wrote:

I've got some Transformers sighting news for you

I was in TK Maxx in the UK today and saw that they had some Studio Series 86 and live action figures, as well as Kingdom Tigatron. I took some photos of what I saw [you can see them below].

The prices can be found in the pictures. Scavenger is still pretty expensive but a discount is always nice. Everyone else is pretty well reduced in price though.

If you don't have a Legacy Black Zarak yet, have the space and live in the UK, then this is the news for you. He is only £70 at The Toy Shop. Link is below and we thank blackeyedprime for the news.

Oh Gods! I REALLY wish I cared about Black Zarak, but I don't. I was a putz and waited for Hasbro UK to do their second run of Scorponok (who I DO care about, as I had him as a nipper and his colors are SO much better), except they decided the UK didn't need a second run and now he costs a fortune.

So, I ask you, my fellow Seibertronians and Disgruntled Brits this:

Should I get it anyway?

I'm tempted purely because it's such a good deal (and I actively dislike this design)!

I'd recommend him, my fave transformer of last year in all fairness. His lack of bits that are noticably amiss with Scorponok (extra shoulder guns, rifle etc) don't seem to matter as much to me for him. Base mode might be a bit lacking compared to the G1 bot but it makes up for that with size and the head pit trap.

Not going to be of much use to anyone but if you have a house of fraser that is closing down. Ratbat and fumble £4 same with some decepticon micromasters

Maybe more of a use to people, smyths has a few reductions so it might be worth keeping an eye open.. Legacy Bulkhead £25
Blitzwing £40

IMHO it's proof that these things aren't selling or worth the rrp being charged but smyths discounts stuff at the weirdest of times like they did siege prime just as the wfc show was about to drop.

Yeah, I can say that sales have definitely dropped a lot in this year for Transformers. I think you're right that people just don't see them as worth the price for RRP. I'd say hopefully Hasbro will notice and make some adjustments but currently, as a company, Hasbro seem so out of touch with what fans want

I have a feeling that instead of lowering their profit margin, hasbro will lower the budget for the figures so we're getting less for less

I've got two sealed scorponoks AND a sealed black zarak from preorders when they were first released.
Given the size of the boxes and the insured packaging I would need for them, I can't see I'd ever be able to let them go for less than £200.

When you bear that in mind, £70 and free delivery for a Zarak from the Entertainer is a bargain :)

Oh, there's no doubt. I did cave and pick one up (and it has apparently been delivered!) but still. I'll continue to look out for Scorponok. He IS the character I care about after all. What did he do for originally?

Good stuff, hope you enjoy Zarak :)

Think I paid £135 for scorpy on preorder from Kapow back in the day. I know they replenished the stocks with import stock at £179.99 last time.

Hi guys,

I looked on Hasbro pulse and it said items were out of stock however I went through and ordered the Alpha Trion set and it took my money despite item being unavailable, got an email today saying it has now been collected and with the courier on way to me.

Might be worth a punt trying even if it does say out of stock

Black Zarak arrived yesterday and I'm dead impressed with the detail work on the figure and the new head.

However, it's also a figure that has me looking at it and wondering about my collection a bit. It's kinda put me in an odd headspace, questioning what I want from my collection. I dunno. It's an odd feeling.

More smyths reductions

Ark £90
Speedia Blurr £20
Speedia burnout £20
(sadly no other Speedia discounts yet)

The ark is now within a price range that I may take a punt on one for, they have several stores with double digit figures that are quite sizeable so I imagine they want shot of them.

Metroplex also down to £189.99 as similarly I do not see stock levels of this moving.

If they do a Tidal Wave or Nemesis titan for 2023 then I think this might improve the sales slightly as the way the price point for titans is shooting up they really need to be a character with some appeal.
