Didn't work on SDCC Bumblebee (wasn't expecting it to) but also didn't work on the little prime masters (Octopunch, Bludgeon, etc.). Errr... okay...

ok, that is complete BS...not only does the labor day code not work on anything beyond wave 1 of PotP, but even the individual 20% off code HTS sent me (for botching up the first throne order) doesn't work either. The only thing I want is Predaking, and no way I'm paying $160 for it. 20% off is a decent start, but if the codes don't work, what's the point?... :-x

I really miss the old HTS sales that were just 20% off and free shipping on everything, no limits or minimums.

target also has CW Computron. It doesn't have the right name, but the description says it is Computron.

Fellow Seibertronian Emerje has sent along a notification about retail chain Target and their latest sale offer: spend $50 on toys and save $10, spend $100 and save $25; plus, you still get free shipping on orders $35! We also have confirmation that the offer works on both Target.com and in the brick and mortar store, for those wondering.

As Emerje says:

Target Exclusive Greatest Hits Bumblebee Cassette Pack and Soundwave are both in stock as well as Power Charge Bumblebee and Tiny Turbo Changers wave 3 among other things. There's a good opportunity to save a lot depending on what you're buying.


So head over to the site or your nearest store, and pick up some new (or old) toys you're after!

The shops are gearing up for the holiday season, and so are discount and liquidator chains! Ross has put the next load of TF merchandise on their shelves:

First is the TLK AllSpark Tech range, with both starters and standalone figures represented:
RossAllSpark1.jpg


Most notably, the seemingly elusive Sqweeks makes an appearance. Take note he does not transform:

The Starter Packs, with the regular Optimus and Shadow Spark versions as well as Sqweeks, are $8.99

...while the standalones are $6.99

Next up are the RiD 2015 Combiner Force 3-Step Changers, with Optimus Prime, Power Surge Bumblebee and Soundwave:

... priced at $9.99. No sign of Steeljaw, Thunderhoof or Grimlock.

One of our very own Seibertronians, JelZe GoldRabbit, made a quick trip to Ross the other day. Not only did she discover many Transformer toys one sale, such as RID 3 Step Changers. But the most important thing she found was the elusive The Last Knight Allspark Tech Sqweeks! The small scooterbot was never reported at main, brick and mortar retail, and has finally started popping up at the market 3 level. Keep in mind though, he, as with most of the allspark tech range, is non-transforming. Check out her entire post below for the photographic evidence!

Minor correction: the AllSpark Tech range does transform, though very simplistically. It's just Sqweeks that doesn't, though that is accurate to the movie :lol:

Was Legion Dragonstorm the one that never showed up in the US? Seems he's showing up at Five Below and is currently available on the web store for $3 (only 5 left). Worth checking out for what I've heard is one of the best Legions ever.

Their dragon mode photo is laughably bad. :lol:

Can verify TJ Maxx is stocking the Allspark figs too. My local one had two Megatrons and the Shadow Spark Optimus.

My Ross did not however they are still stocking the later wave TLK deluxes. A worker put out a Wave 3 ‘bee and a Strafe. If interested this is the Ross on Hwy 378 in Lexington SC. Go grab ‘em.

Greetings All,

HTS is offering PotP Predaking 20% off through eBay (currently $127.99). Additionally TODAY ONLY there is a 10% off code PICKUP10, that will get you additional savings. I just got my Predaking for $125.11 final price (no shipping cost, but there was tax) -Which I think is bogus, since HTS doesn't ship form my state, but whatever. $125 is certainly better than $172 (what it normally costs after tax) -it's certainly possible , as we've seen with past titans that there may be a better deal in the near future, but this was good enough for me.

edited to add links (sorry my work computer doesn't like eBay, had to finagle this in)

We have news to bring to you today that Target is offering a one-time 25% off coupon that incorporates Transformers toys! This coupon, which can be found HERE, offers 25% off a single item, and this item can be in the toy department, the sporting goods, or the crafts section. This coupon can be obtained by texting the word TOY to 827438, at which point you will be sent a text message with your unique code to use on any item.

One particular item of note is the Bumblebee movie Soundwave, which is currently on sale for $44.99, $5.00 off already, and the coupon adds an additional 25% off that. The figure will still be eligible for free shipping, as the tax puts it over the $35 free shipping limit (I have done this, it works!)

The coupon is good until November 10.

So send a text, and get yourself 25% off some sort of item that Target has that you really want, and let us know what you get in the comments section below!

Not really, I don't think so, depends on preference. The blue is way more G1 (not purple-ish), the grey plastic on the arms and legs is very dark. The boom box molding could be considered better (I like it better). The eyes are painted with iridescent yellow.

Thanks to a tweet from @Evochanger on Twitter, we have word that the Transformers: The Last Knight Tiny Turbo Changers exclusive 3-pack is showing up at Argos for a mere £2.50!

For those who might not remember, this 3-pack was a Target exclusive in the US, and it is the only Tiny Turbo Changer figure of Steelbane, one of the knights of Cybertron who got an individual retail toy in the same movie line as well. Steelbane comes packaged with Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, with some interesting red details splattered all over them that are compatible with black lights, such as can be found on the giant Turbo Changer Dragonstorm figure.

For those in the UK looking for this set, head on over to your local Argos, and let us know if you discover this little 3-pack and what you think of it in the comments section below!

Can you blame them? Or they bought from any of the several salvage suppliers. Selling things for profit is kinda their schtick.

Indeed, it should be the mantra of any business who wants to be successful...

However, in this case, I think it is not likely. BBTS is not far from me, located in Western Wisconsin, as far as I remember. I believe that is an awful long away from the nearest Ollies.

Interesting, everyone is entitled to their point of view of course. But (for the sake of argument) "Toy store X" bought 30 Trypticons from Ollies for $30, and turn around and sold them for $60, that's "good business", but if I did that personally, it would be called scalping...??

I was going to insert a cheeky response here, but nothing felt right in this format. Just assume I was ribbing you a bit. ;)

Without speaking for others, I wonder if the case has more to do with availability of things that are sold online for much more than the MSRP. For instance, say there was a limited store exclusive (Wreck Gar) that was just not found in many places because someone (or more than one) bought them outright at $18. Then, a bunch showed up on eBay for $50. I'd qualify that as scalping.

In this case, I think Tryppie has been available for some time at both MSRP and on sale. I think the collectors that may decry scalpers have had ample time to get him. So, I think this is a different case.

Personally, I struggle with the wait-and-see-if-goes-on-sale versus I-need-this-and-don't-want-to-miss-out. I mostly fall in the latter and end up paying slightly more than MSRP to get the figures I want online. (But, it is cool for army building, or the eventual customs I may someday do, to find the deals in this thread...)

I think we are looking at the causality all wrong. BBTS has other shit to do then drive miles to get some tryticons, especially when its not sure they will get some. Instead what makes way more sense is that this is the stock they are still stuck with from last year and now that fans can get tryptions for so cheap, this is the price that they evaluate their leftoever stock to be worth.

Well I got the bus to the nearest Argos and they didn't have that Tiny Turbo changer pack or even knew what i was talking about when asking about it. Cheapest Transformers item they had was TLK Deluxe Sqweeks for £9.99 and i got that figure when it first came out so I came home empty handed. Oh well. Them's the chips.

Depending on if it doesn't sell out immediately, how long should the BBTS sale on Trypticon last? I'd like to wait for my next week's paycheck before going all in on finally getting one and at such a good deal too.

HTS' ebay store appears to have a blanket 20% off everything. Some ebayers may have also received an eBay Bucks deal today that grants 10% bucks on gift items like today.

Of note, Seibertron's own Megatronus told us that he got Predaking for 20% off, and he recieved an additional $12.80 back due to the eBay bucks deal.
