Massive 40% Off Sale on Transformers at Toysrus Canada Including Leaders, Commander and Titans

Those are some serious deals! If we remember correctly that was the price of Armada Prime back when he came out 2 decades ago.

The irony with Black Friday is that I've been burned so many times before by waiting for a sale to never find the toy in store ever again, that I but everything that I want as soon as it comes out. This result in when a big sale like this happen, I already have everything and I end up buying nothing.

I do that too, but for Optimus Primal, my Amazon order had not shipped yet, so I bought it from TRU and cancelled the amazon order

For some reasons, Amazon take its sweet little time to release things. Appart the obvious Amazon exclusives, I cancel most preorders of the standard stuff because I find them weeks or months in advance either at GameStop or my local geek store.

Agreed and so true. Magnus is a good example of that. Does TRU do rainchecks? Can't remember

They did but I haven't attempted getting one in years since they were the worst option for toys. Low stock, late stock and higher prices.

I went to my local geek store and he had a out ALL the "Walmart exclusive" Legacy G2 toys. He also have the Joe Soundwave, the new JP set, the most recent Buzzworthy Bumblebee toys (including that infamous Optimus) and even the Pulsecon exclusives that are supposed to be only for GameStop.



Looks like most if not all big retailers exclusives will be available at all the small independent shops not too long after their initial releases.

So, dear Canadians, if you can't find the "exclusive" you want at your nearest big name retailer, hit the local independent geek shop. You may be surprised.

Very true. Or online geek shop too.

Of course I FOMO'd too fast.

Joe Soundwave is now available at Amazon.ca for only 111$ instead of 150$ from the independents shops.

Heads-up, you no longer have to import the Battle Master ROTB Airaizor from Japan. She's right here at Amazon.ca:

No prob!

I already have my 3 and consequently, I had to basically pay double because of the shipping. I will not quad-dip but at least, you and our fellow Canadians can finally get the tiny bird for the normal price without having to pay extra.

We've heard of Transformers exclusives ending up at liquidators like Ross or Ollie's in the US and BOOM or Treasure Hunt in Canada but this new sighting takes the cake. We got wind that three Transformers exclusives (two of which were never sold in Canada before) are now available at Samko and Miko toy warehouse, which only has 2 locations in all of Canada. They do have an online presence which means anyone in Canada can order from them. The three toys in question are the Beast Wars rereleases of Iguanus and Wolfang along with Legacy Minerva. All of these are $20 CAD ($15 USD) each and shipping is free above the $75 threshold.

Here is a link to these toys for interested Canadians: https://samkoandmikotoywarehouse.com/pr ... -playsets/

I don't care about these specific toys, but I do care about finding out one more hunting ground.

I'll double check their reputation before buying though. I've been burned once already and that was enough.

Thanks for the heads-up!

I purchased all three so I'll let you know

If you search further they also have these two too:

Monopoly: Transformers Beast Wars Edition Board Game - Samko & Miko Toy Warehouse
https://samkoandmikotoywarehouse.com/sh ... oard-game/

Transformers Generations Legacy Deluxe Autobot Skids Action Figure - Samko & Miko Toy Warehouse
https://samkoandmikotoywarehouse.com/sh ... on-figure/

This place turned out quite legit

Good!

And I can add, FAST!

I'll add that store to my bookmarks just in case.

I went to GameStop and I found something peculiar.

The DOTM deluxe Bumblebee reissue, Universal edition.
One strange thing is that it's labeled as "Revenge of The Fallen."
The price is of a normal deluxe toy.



I didn't bought it because I already have the original deep in storage.

Also, sad news.

Toys R Us brought back the expensive prices of 2022.

40$ a deluxe, 50$ a voyager.

Now that the BWBB line is basically canceled, there's no more point in shopping there. Unless the last troopers 4 pack goes on clearance.

The BWBB line isn’t canceled, its just changing names. TRU is getting a bunch if exclusives this year, including Cybertronian Wheeljack which will be a hot commodity

Well, that's one I wouldn't mind paying 50$+tx for.

Crimsonflame is now REALLY back in stock at Amazon. And 5$ cheaper than the original price too.
