Toys R' Us has Transformers Movie figures in stock and you don't even know about it. That's right folks according to a manager at my local TRU they have already received one case amd will be getting more in as the following weeks pass. Most would pass this off as a joke. But not when you have proof.

Below are images of Transformers Movie Deluxe Bonecrusher and receipt from his purchase today at a local Toys R' Us. You can click on the images below to view the full size image.

While as far as I know, it's illegal to break street date, we thought it only right to inform everyone. So head out to your TRU's and put on your biggest smile when you ask if they have them in stock, because the hunt for the Transformers Movie figures is on!

To say the least, he's a pretty cool figure. Much more intricate than any other deluxe I've ever owned. The shear amount of transforming you have to do is amazing. And he has his shoulder spikes so I'm happy.

Wow, I hit all my spots this weekend(Hasbro ships to my area Thursday night, so everything gets out Friday Saturday, go any othertime, and the goods are gone leaving Cybertron Primal, and 3 inch Titaniums) looking for some new Titaniums and found zip on just about everything.

I did however find a close out store loaded with first wave Classics !!DISCOUNTED!!

I bought a second AstroTrain for prosperity, as well as a StarScream (the rest I already have 2 of)!

I did however invest in 1 soon to be ThunderCracker, and 2 soon to be backround Seekers

Ah, but ow good is his posing? That's one of my main buying issues. If a figure has bad posing for whatever reason (loose joints, few joints, kibble obstructing joints) I don't want it. So my question is: what is Bonecrusher's posing like?

Funny thing is, all the other Movie figs I want have the right posing capabilities for me...only ones I need to know about are Bonecrusher and Jazz. Ratchet, Ironhide, Deluxe Bumblebee, Starscream, Blackout, Brawl, Barricade, Optimus Voyager, Wreckage, and all the Real Gears are awesome.

We have a bunch of Transformers collectors working at my TRU making that store completely useless! Regular customers won't see anything before June 2nd.

Wow! you bought a deluxe class figure at TRU and only paid the srp for it? WTH!? The only reason why I didn't finish my classics collection back when I bought my Soundwave is because my TRU was over charging for the figures. You also got your bonecrusher before my previews came.....
:cry:

Check the first post. I updated it with a good image of what he can do. The only posing problem I have is his arms. He doesn't have elbow joints or an upper arm rotate point. So his arms can swing forward and back and away from his sides. Think of Cybertron Scourge but with no elbow. His legs are pretty ingenious actually with four different points to help position him.

The sculpt looks pretty good, but the colors are.... eh. A bad paint job can really hurt a figure, and that's what I'm seeing here. I wonder if we'll get repaints later on...

So they get shipments in and put them on the shelves?? Or do they keep them in the back?? I need to ask when my Toys R Us gets shipments of these toys in. I NEED BB AND BARRACIDE NOW!!!!!!!! Heck I need all the movie figures whos names start with a B now!!!! Bumble Bee ,Barricade, Brawl, Bonecrusher. Damn 4 figures=about 48 bucks.

Re: Transformers Bonecrusher at Toys "R" Us! (85589)
Posted by TheMuffin on April 14th, 2007 @ 11:54pm CDT

If they aren't on the shelves, they more than likely have started getting the cases in and are storing them in the back room.

Re: Transformers Bonecrusher at Toys "R" Us! (85592)
Posted by muswp1 on April 14th, 2007 @ 11:56pm CDT

I'll have to start checking the local TRU's out.

BTW, when is the street date for the movie figures?

Re: Transformers Bonecrusher at Toys "R" Us! (85593)
Posted by jdre_124 on April 14th, 2007 @ 11:57pm CDT

Do they sell stuff in storage in the back room??They probably do but rack up the prices -_- Did you find your figure on the shelves??

Re: Transformers Bonecrusher at Toys "R" Us! (85594)
Posted by jdre_124 on April 14th, 2007 @ 11:58pm CDT

June 2nd is the street date for the figures put apparently Hasbro cant keep it in there pants and these figures are leaking out early. Doesnt matter because I WANT THEM NOW!!!!!

Posted by jdre_124 on April 15th, 2007 @ 12:11am CDT

Well its not so much like Spider-man 3 figures. Hasbro wants to release these figures later in early June to protect the designs of the movie but they arent doing that very well. =P Im hunting for the must have IMO tommorow. And BTW IMO only the Spider-man 3 figures suck.

Re: Transformers Bonecrusher at Toys "R" Us! (85608)
Posted by bumblezzz on April 15th, 2007 @ 12:14am CDT

well of course they suck. spider-man don't need toys he should stick to comics and tomorrow Im soo getting bumblebee.

Posted by jdre_124 on April 15th, 2007 @ 12:19am CDT

Well I dont want this to become a flame post for the Spidey 3 Figures, but the figures do suck. They scale is way off compared to the past figures and they just feel cheap and there way to gimmicky. IMO of course.

I just said that. end now which of the moivie toys will you get next.

Hasbro might allow them to be out early seeing as how we have seen all the movie bots and shipments of the toys are already out there. And of course thers a huge ass storm coming my way tomorrow so i cant go to TRU untill monday. God damn it all. Lets hope there are no fans working at TRU so i can at least get one figure. Hopefully Barricade. Im sure theres someone in riverhead that goes on this site and will beat me to it. That will be my luck.

Well we had a horrible storm hit us too and I live in Dallas Texas. I plan of getting BB, Barricade and Bonecrusher if I can get them early tommorow. I just hope that toys r us doesnt realise what is done and mark the toys up or not sell them. I hope no one here in Texas knows about the figures >=)

And holy crap, that Bonecrusher figure looks absolutely amazing! I must have one! I think of all the movie figures he is the one that is most faithful to the original design.
Only wish he was bigger, looks like I'll be forced to pick up the Voyager Prime just so I can have these two moderately in scale with one another

There is no need to 'hunt' for these. Wait a month and they'll have 100 of each character on clearance for $2.00 because they can't sell them. =]

Posted by Spoffy2 on April 15th, 2007 @ 10:16am CDT

Well...it's not illegal to break street date but what it does is break the contract that Hasbro has with ToysRus. Hasbro then has the right to pull all Transformer movie toys from all US stores. This has been the case with other companies dealing with ToysRus in the past.
