Anyone know the regular price at other stores? Thanks.

Is it fair to say this color variant Trypticon didn't do too well? Even with the understanding the 1st color variant release would have cannibalised some of the sales.

Did the 1st color variant release go to discount stores, too?

Hard to say how well it sold since it was only sold online, but it is still readily available at most stores. These would have come directly from Hasbro most likely so they could have just been overstock as online stores (and comic shops for that matter) are more likely to just drop the price until they sell and aren't in much hurry to do so.

I don't remember if the original Trypticon was sold at discount stores, but I do remember it ended up reaching deep discounts.

Walmart.com has Cyberworlds Grimlock for only $15! https://www.walmart.com/ip/TRA-CYBERWOR?wmlspartner=FYAGeMjDX6c&=&affs=p&wid=5b6b4213e4b0bcb699adeb9f&u1=&oid=223073.10006940&sourceid=37141976172661509211&affillinktype=3&veh=aff ... 4605402749

They also have all of the latest pre-orders at the old prices instead of higher prices so it's a good time to order a TFOne Alpha Trion for $35 or Soundwave for $55. Worst case they cancel the order and you aren't out anything.

Saw this while I was at work last night, quickly grabbed an Armada Wheeljack and Solus Prime since I don't have those two yet (along with a spare Cosmos and Dead End). I'm really surprised Age of the Primes figures are in this deal. These are also being stocked in stores, though I couldn't find them at my store this morning. Some people are saying they're not supposed to be in stores until Friday.

Incidentally BBTS has some really good deals today, too.

Studio Series Gamer Edition Voyager Ironhide $24.49
Age of the Primes Voyager Red Alert $27.99
Studio Series DotM Hatchet $20.79
Transformers Optimus Prime Tenseg Base Set $45.49
Studio Series 86 Galvatron $38.49

Grabbed Ironhide, he's the last Gamer Edition I needed.
