At this point, he's cheaper than a Deluxe, so really, even if you end up only liking one mode, you're still making out pretty well.

Second that. IMHO, Lugnut is better than all the DOTM voyagers out there and I own megatron and shockwave. Too bad you can't detach the tail and turn it into a weapon.

15 bucks for Lugnut is really good.

Granted, I'm a Lugnut fan, but I'm tempted to go back to TRU and get some MORE Lugnuts for my personal collection (I have 3 already of this figure/deco right now; might get an extra or two in case of a custom idea)

London TRU has quite a few Voyagers in overstock, hopefully this will help move them.

Are these still on sale and has anyone seen the night ops ratchet?

Would rather have that version than the one for full price atzellers

I'm pretty sure this sale (half price on older voyagers) ended around the 5th or 6th, but you can always call your local store to ask. Worst case will be that they say what you're looking for isn't on sale at the moment & that they don't know/cant tell you when it will or might be on sale again, in which case you're in the same boat that you're in now.

However if nothing else, this seems like an ongoing promotion because I've seen it done at least twice since I started paying attention to this shit recently, so I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen again once they wanna add more stock of newer things.

Personally, I'm really shitting myself for not picking up a Banzaitron for 15 when I could, so I'll definitely be on the lookout.

[sikkbones]

it has been a 14.97 sale at least twice on the older voyagers....

but they arent getting in new stock of them and i have almost all of the toys except deep dive, fallen, and night ops ratchet... i think...

edit: i need highbrow too.

[Nomad]

I mean when they get new stock to replace the line itself with (like with DOTM shit) & don't wanna have to devote shelf space to the small amount of old product that like you say, they don't plan on ordering again. Fir example, my TRU used to have like an entire 4 foot section with these guys, and now they're down to about a row and a half. Grappel, Strafe, Highbrow & Lugnut I believe still show up at random times, so unless they've been hiding in the overstock, they haven't been totally phased out yet. It's guys like Banzai, Seaspray & Payload that I'd be more worried about if anything, but I've even seen those guys popping up in several retailers.

Also, I've seen all of the ones that you mentioned except Deep Dive floating around, so I wouldn't worry about missing out if you're not willing to pay the full 30. Heck even if you do end up getting beaten to the punch by other who're not waiting for a sale, finding one for sale online at like 15 means that you can still pay less than retail after shipping, especially if you're not in a rush, and especially if you buy from board members oppose to online stores & ebay.

If it was deluxes too, I'd finally pick up Sidearm Sideswipe. He's one of those toys I've been quietly wanting for a while and seeing on the peg constantly but always passing.

That blue The Fallen toy is tempting too solely because of the face removal gimmick.

[sikkbones]

if any sees or has fallen, and night ops ratchet andhighbrow too...

let me know... esp. if anyone sees them on sale.
