I don't know the rodimus prime is still in eb games and not moving. Nor discounts.
Will they get the new leader pricing once in effect??

Rodimus was on sale a number of times on amazon and walmart, As low as around $80-90 I think. I Imagine those will show up at Winners at some point

Jetfire was discounted to $50 at TRU

Sky Lynx was spotted at Winners for $50

Re: Is new pricing keeping you away?

Out of curiosity, is there a reason why Gamestop's prices are still reasonable when comparing them to Wallys & TRU? Should we expect them to inflate their prices too in the near future?

I currently only buy from Gamestop with my 15% Onyx discount and from Hasbro Pulse.

Only recent items I've bought from Walmart and TRU are their exclusives like vintage Beast Wars and TMNT reissues and NECA TMNT stuff.

Reasonable before the Edge discount or after it is applied?

Yeah, with the Commanders/Titans, I generally avoid paying MSRP and just wait for a decent enough sale. As those DO tend to get discounted eventually.

Rodimus has been 95 bucks on amazon for a few days. Walmart . ca as well IIRC.

He was 75 bucks on the toy snowman flash sale a week ago

I mean, I agree --- there are three at my local gamestop that have been there for months.

You are correct... but it's also a total crapshoot if you can find one at Winners/Homesense, or actually find one in stock when TRU does the big sales.

I went everywhere looking hir that $50 discount Skylinx and never found it. I'm glad I did get it from Walmart when I found him even though I paid $100.

Reasonable before and better after currently. I am pre ordering most of my stuff through them. There is a little creeping up going on with certain figures but they seem to be holding off for the moment.
