Steal of a Deal: $16.99 Generations Deluxes at Target this Week Plus Extra Circle Savings

Man, for the most part I like the look of Cliffjumper, just wish they would've made the front of the car shorter so he didn't look so much like a hobbit in bot mode.
Still don't want to pay $17 for that guy. If I ever see him for $10 I'll bite.

Are there other Deluxe class Generations figures you want because between the sale and the extra $10 off you can practically get Cliffjumper for free with two other Deluxes. I picked up Ironworks, Hoist, and Cliffjumper for $41 and some change total using these deals.

Are the circle deals regional? These links don’t go anywhere for me, and they don’t appear in the app. Speaking specifically of the $10 off $40 or $50 deals.

Yeah, thanks for that heads-up... I didn't really think about that with the additional deal.
The problem is that I'd consider getting the Allicon, Smokescreen, Prowl, and Ironhide, and none of that's possible... Which is fine; I've preordered the conehead 2 pack, and have Thrust and SS '86 figures to look forward to. I'm hoping to get the Walmart exclusive Soundwave as well.
But again, thanks!

Shouldn't be. Try logging into Target.com and then going to Circle, it shows up at the top of the page for me.

They might be regional or targeted, they are no where to be found for me. NJ, USA fwiw. Not on the app, desktop or mobile site.

I'm in NJ as well. I used the $10 off $50 in-store coupon last week but never got the $10 off $40 coupon.

I'm in the Chicago area and the $10 off $40 deal works for me.

I’m located in SC and only got the $10 off of $40+ pick up/drive up Circle offer. Love to use it but my two Targets have next to nothing for Transformers available to order (which I find hard to believe). Don’t have the $10 off of $50+ in store offer.

Looks like I’m out of luck ...

Also, unless I am mistaken, Target deals with assortment numbers rather than UPCs for their returns. Meaning you can stock up on deluxes at this price, to later exchange with for the new deluxes that come up later in the year. It's like pre buying this year's output.
Obviously, the only issue here is you are betting on target to get the rest of the deluxes you want.

Neither of the 10$ off offers show up for me. I was going to preorder Topspin, but with 3$ off and 6$ shipping I’ll just wait and get it elsewhere.

Was hoping the local target had Offroad Bee, but they just had the other deluxes from the wave.

I wish this worked on Cyberverse because I already got the current Studio Series and Earthrise figures and have to wait for the next wave.

Also a good point, but still a bit risky. The $10 off $50 doesn't end until Aug. 29th...
With different online retailers giving various release (or maybe shipping) dates, does anyone know when the next wave of ER is due?
I know times have changed, but it wasn't completely unusual in the past for figures to start popping up earlier than expected (without the hassles of not being in a store's system).

For some reason, every figure that I've purchased at my local Target since Titans Return has had QC issues. Even before that, every figure with issues came from that Target.

It makes me wonder if they buy cases of factory seconds or something...

Hey look, a sale right after I bought ER Wheeljack.

I'll be keeping my eyes open for SS Roadbuster, though.

Thanks to you all and Brickseek I was able to run out to a Target this morning and nab Sky Lynx. the nice fella was more than happy to run in back and dig the figure out of the "U Boat" And plug in the code for the 10 off 50 Circle coupon.

Thanks for the help Seiberfriends!!!

Edit: Also not sure if this was brought up but, on-shelf, it appeared the 16.99 Deluxe sale applied to Cyberverse Deluxes as well.

Knightdale NC Target has the clone 2 packs for 50%. Hadn’t seen it included with the Deluxe sale info.

I'm in the NY area, and I see neither.
Emerje, if you don't mind me asking, what state are you in for both to show up?

Did you buy Wheeljack from Target? If it has been within 14 days, you can price match him to the sale.

And plug in the code for the 10 off 50 Circle coupon.


Hmmm. Maybe there is a code or maybe the associate rang it up as a price match ... I’ll simply ask and show the Circle image that Emerje shared with us earlier in the thread. Not all hope is lost ...

That's exactly what I did. Showed him the one from the news post Emerje wrote and he found the actual coupon for me.

The guy who helped me was rad and in a good mood. Sadly YMMV with this situation depending on the employee. Kill 'em with kindness, my Mama always used to say.

Aww, nice, Unfortunatly, I don't think you can do the same with the 10 dollars off 40, but... I guess there's customer Service... (shrug)

Holy shizz... That is an awesome deal. I've decided to pass on that set, but at that price I'd get it in a heartbeat!

When is wave 2 of the Earthrise supposed to hit shelves .

I don't think it does, my Cyberverse Arcee that I bought yesterday did not get the offer applied to it.

Probably right about now, some sightings are trickling out. It's the fall wave, so by the end of August we should see wider distribution

No, actually. It was such a rad experience that I asked if I could snap a photo.

He obliged!

So for people wondering why they can't find the promo code I did some digging and turns out it's no longer available for whatever the reason I took a screenshot of it but this is really unfortunate and really strange

Success, my friends! Stopped by the closest Target yesterday after work and visited Customer Service. The woman I spoke with (a rather fetching blond, I might add) was able to credit me $10 on my purchase after showing her the Circle offers. She did a fair bit of key punching to do so but it worked. Looking at the receipt it appears she simply price matched me the $10 rather than using a code/coupon/offer. The line item has regular price then the price charged was $10 bucks less.

This is what I used it on ...

Called ahead earlier that AM and they literally just received a case. Reserved one (of the two) and picked it up.

As an aside, the box art features Thrust, Dirge, and Ramjet. Thrust is on the side of the box where Optimus is standing.

Sorry for the late reply, work really sucked this week. I live in Maine. The $40 deal was emailed to me and just sitting there on the Circle page of the website. The $50 deal showed up on the app while I was looking at the week's ad. Neither said anything about being exclusive to me, just that they were Circle exclusive deals. I'm glad other people also received them and some were able to get them matched in stores.

Honestly I found the $40 coupon to be pretty useless. Even when stuff shows up as in stock at my store (like Sky Lynx) it wont let me order it for pickup.

I was meaning to say something after I saw you live in New England... You are lucky that there must be some freaking amazing IPA's to drink up in your neck of the woods.
While I'm a stout and porter fan, there aren't many beer styles I don't like. What's normally called a "New England" (sometimes east coast) IPA is by far my favorite of that style. Here in the midwest there are breweries who do a pretty good job with the NE style, but a lot of times they're still a bit of a letdown.

In other news, I did end up getting Cliffjumper. He is so freaking small!
I'll wait to decide if he's a keeper until we get the last wave of figures... I may end up doing an exchange, but we'll see. Definitely glad I took advantage of that sale.

This is a great deal! Went on a bit of a Cyberverse spending spree and got Deluxe Megatron, Deluxe Arcee, Deluxe Shockwave, Deluxe Bumblebee, Trooper Wildwheel, Ultimate Megatron (already on sale for $15), and Scout Windblade (on sale for $5) for only $100 after tax and free shipping. Not bad at all.

Hasbro Pulse may be Hasbro's big online store these days, but Hasbro Toy Shop is still around, in eBay form. And right now you can save 25% on your order using code PARTYFOR25 which should show up in your cart at checkout. The coupon is good until 9/7 and you can save up to $100, just make sure you get everything you want the first time, it's one time use only! And before you think there couldn't possibly be anything worth buying on a store that isn't intended for collectors you may be surprised. They still have a lot of leftover Siege stock, especially Micromasters and Battle Masters, and if you're building a Cyberverse collection then this could give you a boost as there's a lot here including new figures like Trooper class Wildwheel and Meteorfire as well as Deluxe Arcee. Not only is the coupon good across all of HTS, but there are other stores that are using the same code as seen on the coupon page which is how most people are likely to hit that $100 limit.



Big thanks to Seibertronian EmoTim on the Energon Pub Forums for letting us know about this deal! If you managed to pick up anything good let us know in the forums.

Kinda disappointing. Nothing there I want that I don't already have.

It is a great deal for those who are into Cyberverse, and smaller more kid oriented novelties. The only Generations stuff are those poor Shockwaves (and Selects Galactic man)....I cant imagine what possessed Hasbro to make so many Shockwaves, they are still on store shelves around me...ugh....They just need to go all "Leader CW Skywarp" and clearance them out for $10 to finally be rid of them.

o.supreme wrote:I cant imagine what possessed Hasbro to make so many Shockwaves, they are still on store shelves around me...ugh....

Yeah. To think that people were clamoring for a good CHUG Shockwave for so many years, and when Hasbro finally gives us one they certainly made sure that everyone and then some could get one.

I guess I was one of the few that wasn't clamoring. Plus I think the "leader" concept put a lot a people off buying it. If it had just been a voyager without the extra bits, leftover from the "Next Prime" fan vote, it would have been more popular I'm sure.

One of my local Walmarts moved Shockwave to the clearance section... at full price. Well at least they're out of the Transformers section. Now they just have to put something in the Transformers section.

Earthrise Astrotrain is probably next on that list. :/

I've seen him exactly once, the time I bought him. I haven't seen him elsewhere

I have seen more Astrotrains as of late, but I dont think Hasbro would make the same mistake twice. (at least I hope not) At one point,there were at least 8-10 Shockwaves in pretty much every Target in my area. To date, the most Astrotrains I've seen at any one time is 4, hopefully Hasbro won't be shipping any more. Isn't Prime packed in with Doubledealer?

Might just be my local Targets but one has had the same four for weeks now. Another one has about 8 on the floor - they moved six of them to the back to the Funko/NECA to save space in the Transformers section.

Rysquad wrote:Historically- have there been Transformers deals during Prime Day? (10/13-10/14 US)

Yes, there's usually a bunch of sales that pop up during the course of the event. This is when a lot of people hold off to buy their Titans.

There are also exclusives. ER Alternate Universe Optimus Prime was intended to be the 2020 Prime Day exclusive, but now I think it's Bluestreak since he's been listed for a while without any way to buy him. 2019 was technically Greenlight (it was sold a few weeks before Prime Day, but exclusive to Prime members in the USA), 2018 was PotP Nemesis Prime. Nothing in 2017, but we did have three anniversary releases (Orion Pax and Optimus Prime 2-pack, 10th Anniversary Movie Leader Optimus Prime, and Movie Bumblebee Evolution 3-pack). Prior to 2017 there weren't a lot of Transformers exclusives, just five from 2011 to 2014, nothing like these days.
