Gamestop was one of the first to get Black Zarak in stock, and is also one of the few sites that have kept him at the $159.99 price point, instead of the new $169.99 Titan class price point. So they were already sort of offering you a deal. But they are now currently running a 10% off $75 and 20% off $125 purchases deal, a deal which does apply to the infamous Black Zarak. This deal lowers his price down to $127.99, pretty much in line with 2015 Titan Class prices.
If you haven't gotten Black Zarak yet, like yours truly, this is the perfect offer to push you over the edge and give him a look.
You can click on the link above or the picture below to take you straight to the page. Don't fret, the sale price does not show up until the checkout page, but the deal is advertised on his page to let you know it's active.

I'm not sure if any actually Shipped to stores, but it's an option if you have any stores close by you, they can also check the inventory for any other location within a 50 mile radius.

And yes, that Black Zarak is a beautiful piece. I actually like the scorpion mode even more.

He is $24.99 USD, which is only $31 CAD, making that $45 CAD price from Toysrus truly nonsensical.

Vehicle mode is where Guard shines since the all-black deco blends better with the shoulder bits that stuck out on Earthrise Ironhide. Robot mode is very nice as well, but I feel Ironhide breaks up the color monotony a bit better. Guard is going to appeal to a very small audience but if that includes you, you'll be very happy with the figure.

I'll never buy anything there, ever. They takes us for fools. All of their "exclusives" can also be bought elsewhere and for ironically cheaper even when adding shipping.
So there.
Screw you, TrU. Screw you deeply.

In Canada, a TR leader was 60 or 70$CAN if I remember.
Still, they were often on sale at 45$ or 50$CAN. Especially the overpacked ones like Overlord.
Regardless, Toys R Us must have smoked some amazing stuff to makes ALL of their prices explode like this. Especially for Transformers.

It's different currencies though, you have to convert to see the actual difference (which turns out to be $25 USD)

45$can is 36$US.
TrU think they are a eBay seller I guess.

Ah right, I used the wrong number, it's a $20 USD difference then between what they charge for a deluxe and what Hasbro Pulse charges for a leader

Don't get me started on that 110$can (88$us) Ecto-1.
AND IT'S NOT EVEN THE AFTERLIFE VERSION!
When it came out 3 years ago, it was 60$can (48$us) and even then, I found it too expensive.
TrU has jumped the shark with their pricing.

I'm guessing Hasbro will do a FFF or a Transformers Tuesday to announce the next round of Selects figures and one of them will be "available now" as they've done in the past. I feel like it was around this time last year that we had also caught up on Selects and then they announced a bunch of them, but I can't find the article.

I think it was said by leaker that those Beast Wars figures Walmart are getting, along with that Target Bluestreak, were all originally supposed to be the next selects figures. But since retailers are fond of exclusives, Hasbro worked out something with them and is releasing it in this new way instead. In the end, there is no difference in the type of toy a selects figure is and these upcoming 4 exclusives.

True. But I see those 3 BW Legacy Walmart exclusives as more of a stand-in for what would have been a media tie-in line, and since there is none this year Walmart opted for those instead. For the past 3 years there were retailer exclusives in addition to Selects (although their "type" is essentially the same, I agree). It just means we are getting less toys overall, which is kind of disappointing.
I'm still hoping for some new Selects reveals at some point, so much unrealized potential there.

Very glad you brought that up because that is the cherry on top that just seals the whole rumour as being true for me.
Walmart already has a confirmed stand in for what would have been the media tie in line: The upcoming velocitron line. Which is exactly like the netflix line with a mix of redecos and retools ranging from extensive to minimal, and in 3 different classes.
And they also have more BW reissues, so that fills the shelves as well.
So these BW redeco toys (and that silverstreak) end up being extra to that, and more exclusives than would have been planned if we compare year over year.
That really brings home those rumours that these BW redecos are selects figures. Comes out to the same thing of course, but we know for a fact that these are not stand ins for the WFC Netflix lines.

I went to Walmart afterwards and bought Hammerbyte for $20.00.

BW Buzzsaw and Sandstorm started out rumored for Selects, yeah, but Silverstreak never was, that was just the early reviewers that originally leaked him talking out their asses because they didn't have instructions/packaging or any leaks/rumors to go off of in order to place what line he'd be in.william-james88 wrote:I think it was said by leaker that those Beast Wars figures Walmart are getting, along with that Target Bluestreak, were all originally supposed to be the next selects figures.

-The plastic tray is also not shaped right for that box
-The instructions in the box appear to just be Siege Mirage's
-Tomorrow (or today, depending on timezone) is April Fool's
It would align with most of this year's Selects figures, but there's a lot of evidence here for it to be fake.
Also the "leaker" gave it an actual name instead of DK-16, Hasbro wouldn't put forth that much effort

It's not an actual product coming from hasbro.
As for April fools stuff, I'll use this day to catch up on older news, as I did with the Shockwave bit. I won't trust anything new I see.

Also weird that the figure wasn't tied down and Hasbro is unlikely to go back to the Siege mold, they need a second use for the Kingdom mold (I still believe it's coming to BB).

There is at least a second use of the Kingdom Mirage tooling that's supposed to be on the way though, the Leadfoot coming in the Amazon-exclusive Wreckers.

I was just adding to the list of things they got wrong trying to fool us. The moment I saw it was in a bubble I knew it was fake.

I thought Leadfoot was a Legacy Dragstrip retool? Never mind, just double checked, I was way off. Maybe it was just speculation I read.

It's also a UK thing (and happens in Australia as well) so it might have been a English language custom only, not sure where else it's observed. Here in the UK the pranking time only lasted 12 hours from midnight to noon, after that it was customary to reveal the deception so everyone could join in the laugh. Some companies however either made their fake product real, or in the case of Games Workshop, actually pulled a double bluff, and what everyone thought was a joke (praying otherwise) was actually real all along.

I was posting a bunch of stuff about the movie at the time (there were 40 different TV spots I think) but I don't remember that at all.
