Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings

I just ordered scorponok from megalopolis for 164.99 USD...just under 220 CAD at my visa exhange rate.

Free shipping.

I was refreshing TRU all the time and got sick of waiting so went online and feel like I got a deal.

But what about the Customs fee? megalopolis is in US, so cross border might get custom import tax, right?

Might yes.

Checked first, if I get hit, will be 40 bucks max.

Still a good deal.

I almost followed you, but I searched on TFW2005 and saw all kinds bad stories about megalopolis, I decided to just wait.

BTW, I did buy from Megalopolis in 2017, my transaction didn't have any problem.



Wish you luck, and pls let us know how it turns out.

Saw those too but almost all of them were from pre orders.

I put up with a lot of bad stick handling at my local mom and pop TF shop too so maybe I'm a little more amenable to that type of BS from smller entities.

I emailed them before purchasing to ensure they had stock.

Will update if things go awry.

Yeah, exactly. Trypticon was available for how long at BBTS for $60 USD?

I think about this in the context of “wait for the sale” TF fans that led them to crowdfund Unicron. They finally got a sense of how many fans will actually pay $$$ for a TF.

Anyways Scorp will be my 2nd Titan, after Devastator. Will go nicely with my Encore Fort Max, I think. I got my 20% TRU raincheck I intend to use.

IGA has a 2 for 5$ special right now (at least in my area). Not a bad deal.


The banana bread ones are pretty unremarkable so I would avoid them...
There’s also a contest to win a 30 seconds shipping spree and a year supply of Bear Paws you can enter online with a code.
