^ At this point, it's probably easier to have any deluxe figure labelled "xx-Bumblebee" or "Bumblebee-xx" marked to $5, and have these 25% off for other figures.

Guess they can't send the cases of Bumblebees back to Hasbro in exchange for new products?

What else is worth buying with this sale?

The new waves of Bot Shots aren't even in around here.

Since my TRU Express hasn't gotten new stock in since May, I'm not getting my hopes up. Might as well be a 90% off sale; still ain't gonna clear out those Bumblebees that Hasbro keeps telling us every little kid adores.

Every little kid does adore BB. The parents just don't want to buy another same damn figure over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over....etc.
Honestly, if they did a buy 1 get one free deluxe i'd buy a bunch just to donate to kids just to help clean up the wall.

Got this part, just more Asian writing. I am guessing it's "too much" and therefore it needs to be covered? Kinda silly given that it was an Asian exclusive. oh well the hunt for springer and wheelie is on.

They'll never do that, because they're under the same SKUs. Maybe stores can mark down the figures themselves but usually store markdowns = final sales unless it's a clearance item set by TRU head office.

I know what you mean though, they pack way too many BBs.

best thing that will happen is we will get another Deluxe sale at 5.99.

Now, when they say no mech-tech, do they mean Absolutely No MechTech? As in, no deluxes or voyagers?
