Re: CW Victorion Set Found at ToysRus

Really torn on this one. On the one hand, the combined mode looks pretty good, unified colour scheme (if a little too "out-there" for some), new hands and feet, and fembot-ness is definitely an interesting factor.

However, the choice to include 2 helicopters was weird and most if not all of the head sculpts are (IMO) U-G-L-Y. The price is also insulting, although I know that is it the same price as the other box-sets. Waiting (or hunting) for the sale at $110 seems almost worth it.

Almost

I was at that store(Victoria Terrasse) on Saturday afternoon, they had 3 on the shelves. Took one, walk to the cash register, cashier scans it, and then all cashiers freaked out. They all said that they couldn't sell, I kindly replied WHY IS IT ON THE SHELVES then? All the cashier could tell me is, I cannot sell it!! I asked to speak to the manager. I spoke to the some sort of manager on duty(looks like an a$$hole if you ask me) whom looked very inconvenience to speak to me and he offered to hold it until May 13, 2016 - I told that this was unacceptable that an employee has made that mistake. He replied the same thing, the store can't sell it and he couldn't be a proper explanation as to why(but I knew why as I worked retail before and also thanks to wervenom for the reminder)

I found that Toys R Us is very inconsistent from store to store which is why I don't even bother as it is a waste of time - I simply do a monthly visit just for you Pascal. F U TRU!!

Nope, I was helping/buying for a board member. The customer service at that particular location has been getting worst and worst over the years!!

Re: CW Victorion Set Found at ToysRus

Question for those who may know: Why does TRU have to hold this item for an extra week, and Sears doesn't?
