I also noticed they added an extra dollar or more to many items...to counter the extra %10 from already existing codes.

I just ordered stuff from them yesterday with the 10% off code.

Not to mention raising the price of the TFA leaders by $5.

I also noticed that the ones I just purchased were the regular $9.99 while other deluxes were up to $10.99. I wonder why some are more expensive than others.

Are you sure? Shipping was 50% off in addition to the 20% of the TFs when I checked out. Also, Hasbro raised the prices more than $1. Voyagers used to be $20. Some are now $22. Ultras used to be $25.00. Now they are $27.00. There was a blurb in the news about Hasbro raising prices a while ago (raw materials more expensive). I noticed at target, today, that their prices were also raised to the same as those at HTS.
EDIT: Whoops, itMFtis is right. Shipping is free. I had ordered items that weren't in stock (they also weren't eligible for the 20%, either) . Once I pulled them out of my cart, shipping was free.

Yes, this FALL20 code not only gives 20% discount, but it also gives free shipping. However, IF you have item(s) that are either too far out on ship date (e.g. Dragstrip w/ ship date after 12/17) OR for some reason HTS doesn't honor any coupon code on certain "ineligible" items, then the FALL20 coupon will no take effect on those item(s).
My order originally included Dragstrip, but I noticed my 20% discount wasn't fully 20% & shipping after discount still remain at $5.xx After some trial and error I was able to filter out it was Dragstrip causing the problem (no 20% off and free shipping taken on this item). After I removed it from my order, all items in my cart were fully discounted by 20% each and shipping is totally discounted to 0.
I am happy now and thanks for the coupon info First Gen!

I wanted to order Silverstreak and the others, but I'm picking up the Henkei versions, instead, along with USA Edition Powerglide and Onslaught.

Ummm, I didn't get Free S/H. All I ordered was:
Universe Ironhide
Universe Sideswipe
Universe Silverstreak
Universe Tankor
Universe Hound (Legends)
Universe Jazz (Legends)
Universe G2 Megatron (Legends)
The code worked fine. I did get 20% the toys. However, I still had to pay like $11 for S/H. So I am not sure where this free S/H talk came from .

Clear your cookies and/or close browser and try again. Either a browswer/session issue, or you hit a web server that isn't being maintained properly (likely, the former though). In any event you probably won't hit the same web server among the farm, starting from scratch.

Wish Dragstrip and Overkill would have worked though.
Posted by rpetras on October 4th, 2008 @ 7:46am CDT
I wish I'd read about the additional $1 off and I would have gotten Sentinel Prime & swoop too. But with free shipping, i may go back & do just that!

Looks like the older movie line is still at the lower price. Maybe, as they make more molds, the prices will go up for the new figures.

I'm about to go order some new figures!!!!
Enjoy your weekend.
Posted by rpetras on October 4th, 2008 @ 9:49am CDT
I've now used this twice.
I went back and got TF:A Swoop, Sentinel Prime & Ultra Magnus.
With $0 shipping this just rocks!

Call them! They can cancel your order and re-enter it with the 20% off. I've done it before with them in a similar situation. They were cool about it, and took care of everything.

Log in to HTS.com, test out the coupon code on above ordered items one by one and it will reveal which one(s) did not qualify. With your $11 S/H, I am guessing about 2-3 items did not qualify.

What shipping method did you choose? I would assume the free S/H would only apply to standard shipping, so maybe you upgraded to priority shipping?
On second thought, considering how much you bought, $11 is kind of cheap, so I bet you got free shipping on SOME of the items, like the person above said.

I was able to order Silverstreak, Ironhide, Sideswipe, Acid Storm, Galvatron for me and Cyber Stomper Prime for my son's birthday.

Seems to have expired...I was waiting for a discount like this too, but it came out while I was on vacation and I missed it. Lame!

And that sweet deal would have been hard to pass up!

I got some Christmas & birthday shopping done as well.
Saved me a ton of dough! Thanks again for posting.

Drat.
I was setting up an order on HTS so I could finally get Universe Tread Bolt, and the bloody thing wouldn't discount it for me.
Are there any codes that *are* working?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
Google has paid off. Sort of.
I found out that the code "MDCREW" gives a 20% off.
Was hoping for the free shipping, but oh well.
I guess what I'm trying to ask before I order is:
What are the odds that Hasbro will issue another code like "fall20"?
Something with free shipping or a higher percentage than "mdcrew"?
Thoughts, anyone?

You can bet on it...however, the real question is when the next one will come along?
Posted by Rocketeer on October 18th, 2008 @ 10:14pm CDT
If I'd have to wait a few weeks, that'd be fine.
But if the next good coupon isn't coming along for a couple months or longer, I may as well order now.
Granted, it'll be about $3 more than if I found Tread Bolt in retail, but I'm really starting to think I won't.
I saw Ultra-class Onslaught *once* around here a month or so back, and I've been checking all the stores but haven't found him since.
I get the feeling Tread Bolt will be like that: Stores might get one or two in, only to promptly sell out and never restock them.
I guess if the odds aren't good that Hasbro will send out another coupon, I may as well just order Tread Bolt anyway.
