[CobraCommander]

That's great news, time to return some stuff back to Walmart :D

[jacobot]

Yeah... That flyer will be in the paper today ;)
Looks like the only ones I'll have to transfer/return to Walmart are the Dlxs/scouts... No leaders/voyagers sale? Megs Powerbot I got is $29.99 @ Walmart

Definitely taking a scout to Zellers to get $6 back for Ransack :)

[Evan]

I already opened my Walmart stuff! Oh well. It was worth it.

[Team Jetfire]

Awesome!

Thanks for the news.

[Uberman]

Yeah, I'm more concerned with the Voyagers. I got 3 of the scouts, but the price difference isn't worth the effort to try and swap 'em or whatever. And I got 2 deluxes, which, really, are a 3 dollar difference as well. Again, laziness wins out.

But if the cost difference for the Ironhide was large enough, AND I didn't get Starscream yet...

[EASE]

Great news. Too bad no Leaders or Voyagers are on sale,cause thats what i'm goin' for first. Oh well...

[jourdo]

I will be all over this. That is a more reasonable scout price.

[JSon]

So glad I waited to grab the Deluxes. Too bad no leader or voyager though.

[Pascal]

Does Zellers do price match? There's a big pricing difference on Scouts ($12.99 vs $6.97)...

[Whisky Tango Foxtrot]

Glad I only bought one Scout when Wal-Mart broke the street date. Hopefully Toys Я Us will have the Wave 2 Scouts out on the 30th so that I can get a Ransack and Depthcharge for cheap, but even without that this is still a good opportunity to get a Soundwave and Sideswipe for a reasonable price.

[Wheelie]

Well, I guess I'm going to have to price match all the ones I purchased already. Doh!

[Batman]

So when is Toysrus putting out ROTF toys? Friday or Saturday?

[Darth Grimlock]

Looks like a spending trip coming up.

[Goaliebot]

Woo! Now that's when to get me some Scouts and a Dlx Sideways. If I'm feeling saucy I may even try taking my reciept for Dlx Sideswipe, Rampage, and Breakaway back into Wally and ask for moneys back.

[joshimus]

I'm just gonna re-buy Soundwave and return it to Wal-mart.
Should Voyagers be on sale i'll re-buy starscream to take back to wal-mart.

[CobraCommander]

I already opened my Walmart stuff! Oh well. It was worth it.

Just buy again from TRU and return to Walmart with your Walmart reciept... same SKU = No Problem :D

Edit: Oh... what Joshimus said :p

[Uberman]

I need to start holding on to my receipts, I think.

[BeeBoy29]

oh happy joy!!!!
i was iffy on sideways but at tht price i must pick him up, the scouts too!!

edit* also sorry fer soundin a bit noobish here but wats a power bot?

[crimbot]

That's good news... to bad no leader sale yet. That Prime looks awfully tasty.. saw him sitting in Walmart and I damn near bought him...
Wait what the heck am I saying! I said no ROFL toys! That may not be totally true now that they are on sale though..

[Goaliebot]

oh happy joy!!!!
i was iffy on sideways but at tht price i must pick him up, the scouts too!!

edit* also sorry fer soundin a bit noobish here but wats a power bot?

Non-transforming bot with electronic sounds and phrases (and some movement maybe?). More kid-centred design too in terms of looks.

[Icetron]

Does Zellers do price match? There's a big pricing difference on Scouts ($12.99 vs $6.97)...

They do but it might take 'confirming' with the manager over a large difference like that. As long as there's a flyer it should be okay.

The sale isn't as good as the last sale, but better than nothing. :D I'll see if I feel like picking up a scout figure.

[Magnimus]

Argh, I'll be waiting at home for a desk to arrive. Hope it gets here early so I can get up to the TRU before all the good stuff is gone.

[Optimus_Prime]

This sale is no use to me unless deluxe wave 2 is put on shelves, or Scalpel is available, which I doubt.

[Mighty_Galvatron]

The question is, do I go to WalMart and try and get price adjustments, or do I re-buy everything at Toys R' Us and return it all to WalMart?

The latter might be better as WalMart did not price match for me in the past...so I can use this to get them back. Muahahahahaaa!!!

[BeeBoy29]

cool thanx goaliebot

[Mighty_Galvatron]

Does anyone know if the flyer for this is on the TRU website as well? I can't seem to find it.

[dak]

doesn't look like it's live yet.

[malteselegacy]

I agree. I have all of the Deluxe Wave 1 and Voyager Wave 1 that I want. Had a gift card given to me from work so I did not pay a dime for all of them except Soundwave.

Hopefully there are some Wave 2 for sale?

[Goaliebot]

More Info! And now with flyer pics! :D

Got the flyer today with the paper. In addition to what's in this thread/story:

There's a contest to enter online to win a $1500 Transformers Shopping Spree from Toys R Us Canada!

Flyer says "Enter online at: www.toysrus.ca/transformersrotf"

Link seems to be live, but the rules say enter between May 29th and June 29th, 2009 so it might not be a good time to enter it yet. Open to residents of Canada except for yadda yadda yadda... Entry form asks first and last names, email, postal code, and language.


Also, the flyer says Free Transformers Collectible Pen (value $4.99) with purchase of ANY Transformers Action Figures $35.00 or more before taxes. "While they last!" "No rainchecks!" "Available instore only". There's a picture of the pen, it is silver, folds in half into itself for storage/carrying, and has "TransFormers" written on it in black and with the Autobot and Decepticon logos on either side. Looks kinda neat actually.
Edit/ Picture of pen now attached to this post. :)


Fine print at the bottom of the 2nd TF ad in the flyer: "The shipping's on us! with purchase online of $39.97 or more (before taxes) on ALL Transformer toys".


And finally, the red dots near each ROTF pic in the flyer say "Available May 30th".


Pics of the pen and both bits of the ad in the flyer attached to this post.

[slippy]

Sweet pen. Too bad Human Alliance figures aren't out yet.

[SimonMK]

For once I didn't made the mistake of buying a certain toy 1 week before a sale annoucement! :p

Now I can get my TFU Predacon Bruticus Saturday.

[Batman]

So they won't be out until Saturday then?

[JTCh]

Just buy again from TRU and return to Walmart with your Walmart reciept... same SKU = No Problem :D

Edit: Oh... what Joshimus said :p

Gonna do this too with SW, just checked the return policy on the back of the Walmart receipt is 90 days, so plenty of time to spare.

Wonder if I can just buy the pen. :) Looks pretty cool, don't think I'll be spending $35 on TFs.

[down_shift]

Bamn! Told ya!

Glad I didn't tap out and buy it all from square 1 tonight.

Only a matter of weeks before the rest goes on sale too!

[Razorwing]

sweet.. I don't know what I'll get though. Probably some scouts.

[Robimus]

Awesome, I'll be there with elbow pads and helmet on Saturday mourning :D Game on!

[lars573]

So I was at TRU hoping the prices might be in effect early. No such luck, will they price adjust?

[Stapler]

This is great! I just called up my family that's visiting near a TRU to pick me up the ROTF scouts since Zellers is insisting on selling them at $12.00. Hopefully Countdown and Darkwing show up in time for me to get them on sale too.:)

[Sun Swipe Prime]

Awesome, I'll be there with elbow pads and helmet on Saturday mourning :D Game on!

Yeah, those 6yr-olds won't stand a chance. Little punks. I'm going to put on the ol' foil just one more time for this event even though I promised never again ... ahem ... since, uhh, the tragic Aniversary Prime incident. Lesson learned. Even short smoke stacks can take out an eye. Especially if they're involved in a tugging match ... and the, ahem, victim's three feet tall. Damn, kids are strong these days.:o

[Razorwing]

lol this still does not beat the 40% off sale.. that I had for BB and SW. lol.

[CobraCommander]

So I was at TRU hoping the prices might be in effect early. No such luck, will they price adjust?

Yes.


Also, the flyer says Free Transformers Collectible Pen (value $4.99)

I have one of these, the pen kinda transformers... actually more like folds out in half after you press the black button.

[JLvatron]

Also, the flyer says Free Transformers Collectible Pen (value $4.99) with purchase of ANY Transformers Action Figures $35.00 or more before taxes.

Wow, we got shafted by the french translation which says:

"free with the purchase of 1 Transformers figure at $35, before tax."

That doesn't include a total of $35, but only on a single Transformer at that price point! :eek:

Just in case, Quebec residents should take a print out of the English pen ad with them in case.

[Batman]

Man I wish it was Saturday, I want Leader Prime and Starscream now!!!!! Oh and my pen!!!!

[Magnimus]

So, the deluxe, scout, and voyager figures won't be out until May 30th but everything else will be May 29th? Is that correct?

[Goaliebot]

So, the deluxe, scout, and voyager figures won't be out until May 30th but everything else will be May 29th? Is that correct?

Tough to be sure - some stuff may go on shelves tomorrow (29th) and some not until Sat (30th), and I bet that will vary store to store to boot. The first ad picture from the flyer doesn't say "Available May 30th" because the deluxe they chose to picture is preview BB, who is already available.

Do we know whether any TRUs in Canada are planning to open late on the 29th for ROTF toy release like some USA TRUs are?

[jacobot]

TRU here...They had Leaders Opened, and cases of everything else unopened on the the big new display at the front they were putting together... BB masks $59.99 and Blasters plastic wrapped in bins for tomorrow... Woohoo
See Ontario sightings for a laugh :)

Sweet. I'm going to hit up my TRU tomorrow in the afternoon in the hopes that everything is out. I feel like a little kid on Christmas eve :)

[Paradigm-Shift Prime]

I'm wondering this too. I doubt it though. If anything, some stores just might have them on shelves and purchasable tomorrow by chance.

[Poho]

oh man i am so excited for saturday now! SWEEEEEEET!!!!!!

[Razorwing]

You know guys I have a feeling we might be able to get some Wave 2 Deluxes on Sat.

Why do I say that? well I saw this guy's post on TFW2005.

http://i390.photobucket.com/albums/oo350/dahpadre/1243576787.jpg

Do you see what I see? Bottom right? :eek:

Skids you have a home , come home!

THe pic was from tonight (or 2 hours ago..) Walmart Midnight Madness .. let me know what you think guys. it is possible!

[jacobot]

^Nice :D

Got me wave 2 Legends (Walmart) & Scouts (Zellers)
Waiting for Wave 2 Dlxs & Leaders
C'mon TRU/FAO Schwarz

[slippy]

sooo Walmart's regular price is TRU's sale price? :o

[CobraCommander]

I think that is Walmart US. Yeah, Wave2 is already out @ SilverSnail in Toronto on CDN cards.

[Razorwing]

^Nice :D

I don't think we'll see the Wave 2's till later on though.. I"m guessing mostly, Wal-Mart might have them today or tommorow for Wave 2s. The Hunt is ON!

[Poho]

SKIDS!!! do want!

[Paradigm-Shift Prime]

Just to reiterate that is a US Wal-mart. Wave 2s of various sorts have been spotted at some locations for a week or two in the US.

[Razorwing]

That's why I'm theorizing that we Canadians might be able to also get Wave 2 upon the launch, cause that's what happend to the US. It's possible as I said. Not saying it's going to happen lol. I wish though. ;)

[Robimus]

The TRU on Regent in Winnipeg is putting everything out right now. Wave 1 of Deluxe, Voyager and Scout were up already when I was just there.

No sign of wave 2.

[Team Jetfire]

Update on the Pen:

You need to buy a transformer that is WORTH 35 or more. I picked up a few things this morning and they would not give me a pen becuase I didn't spend 35 on one figure. So you pretty well need to pcik up a leader class figure to get it. Unless of course your cashier is NOT a huge cow.

[JLvatron]

Wow! So that means the French translation was correct and the English flyer was wrong!

Wow, we got shafted by the french translation which says:

"free with the purchase of 1 Transformers figure at $35, before tax."

That doesn't include a total of $35, but only on a single Transformer at that price point! :eek:

Be sure to take the flyer with you to the store cause that's how they advertized it.
Unless there's a correction posted somewhere in their store (usually at the entrance), they should be able to give you some discount for their mistake even if it isn't the full English pen deal.

[Razorwing]

so pretty much you HAVE to buy a Leader to get the pen.. lol how much is TRU selling Leaders for? I got my Leader Prime for 58.99 at Wallmart. lol.

[Razorwing]

-snip- double post.

[dannytime]

Hello people ! First post here

I went to Toys this morning (Anjou one) I bought the Leader Prime and Deluxe Breakaway for a total of 47$ and did ask for the Pen and the girl at the cashier give to me without saying nothing. Lucky me :)

[QuadESL63]

I bought a Starsream + a Sideswipe (total over $35) today and they gave me a pen :D

[jacobot]

3 dlxs I got = a pen

And a smile from A friendly TRU employee ;)

Peace

[Team Jetfire]

WTF...how lame.

[QuadESL63]

WTF...how lame.

Refund and rebuy the stuffs at a different cash register/location.

[malteselegacy]

Anyone seen any Wave 2?

[CobraCommander]

I just got back from TRU @ Hwy7/Bayview and they were just starting to put out there wares. I grab my stuff. The person at the cash just asked me how many pens do you want... I told them 1 or 2, she gave me 3x :p

Anyone spot wave2 scouts in a local GTA TRU?

EDIT: PSP is reporting that Walmart have dropped their deluxe price to 9.92! This is most likely @ Walmarts near TRU locations. I gotta check out my local Wallys, looks like I might have stuff to return to TRU instead :D

[JSon]

WTF I didn't get a pen. Not that I would ever use that, or really want it, but it is about the principal!

Also no sign of Wave 2. I would like to find them on sale, but I think I have enough to open today...

[Bruticus82]

Anyone else find it odd that with the sale Universe 2.0 Ultra Class figures are 2 cents cheaper than Voyager class figures?

[Z_Unit]

I spend over $80 (on a single receipt) and they game me 2 pens (without me asking).

How much was Leader Prime? Hes listed as $59.99 on TRU's website. I might have to go buy him if he is also on sale at TRU.

[Razorwing]

so these.. pens.. are they transformable? or are they just pens? lol.

[Z_Unit]

so these.. pens.. are they transformable? or are they just pens? lol.

You press a button and the sides smoothly swing out to be come a pen. The one in my pic is the "enclosed" mode, and the one above that is the pen mode.

[Goaliebot]

ROTF Leader Prime was listed at $59.99 at my TRU.

My mistake - I was talking about the Voyager one. The Leader is $59.99

[Dropkick]

too bad leader prime is not on sale

[renegade_decepticon]

just got my sideswipe and im lovin it ^_^

next it's rampage and sideways ahhhhhh gotta love the price.

[venksta]

My mistake - I was talking about the Voyager one. The Leader is $59.99

Guess I'll have to wait for another sale to get him. Hes the only figure I really want from this series. :(

[BeeBoy29]

nice sale picked up all my scouts, now all i want is dunerunner, where art though? :D

[joshimus]

I just read that Wal-mart, to compete with Tru's TF sale, put their deluxe figs on sale. I mean COME ON! Wal-mart broke BOTH the previews and official release date embargos by at least 2 weeks both times and NOW they're crying because TRU is having a big TF sale?!

I haven't seen any other WalMart except one that had Official non preview DLX's.

It's not to compete with TRU, it's to have the most welcoming price for new items that people want. That's all. You're looking way too into it.

[TFtoys]

I mean COME ON~ close to 30%~40 off is nothing. Walmart can do better secret rollback as the universe lines, total 4waves, month ago.

[ChrisW]

nice sale picked up all my scouts, now all i want is dunerunner, where art though? :D

Dune Runner's in wave 3 (at the earliest) which isn't expected to show up for a month or so. Though the way things are going in the USA with sightings of Mixmaster and Stratosphere, you never know when he'll show up. ;)

Back on topic, TRU has the wave 2 scouts available online, though I have yet to see them in TRU stores. Zellers and Walmart have them on shelves, but not TRU (yet).
