Sadly, they don't seem to have a promo code for any kind of discount at the moment...

I really hope Hasbro doesn't take this to mean "No-one wants Beast Wars", especially with their current attitude towards it...

It's not that "no one want". Ultra over-priced "Chinese Year" Platinums always get heavily discounted at the end.

Even if you think something might not be newsworthy, send it to us. The worse that will happen is that it wont be newsed, but the best scenario is that we all learn something cool and you get a credit

Is this any different? Someone mentioned this in the Texas Transformers board on TFW the other day and I mentioned Amazon.

They are the same toy but different news. We already knew he was on amazon and cheap, but nobody had told us yet that it had been found in an actual brick and mortar store, thats new.

Toys'R'Us has the Rescue Bots Firestation Base for $20.00 off! A great price if your kids are into Rescue Bots!

This last Christmas/holiday season saw what I feel was an unprecedented volume of high ticketed items on clearance prices. I've been collecting TF's for almost all my life, I literally still own my first Optimus Prime, and I can't remember a time when anything like this happened - all the box sets going to Ross's and Marshall's and TJ Maxx's. It really blew my mind.
I live in Northern California and these stores are pretty rare. We only have a few of them. But persistence really paid off. I just kept checking the few stores I can get to over and over again, and I scored almost all the items that broke the news here. It was like the toy hunts of yore when we would wait for the hunters moon and the smell of fresh energon in the air...but I digress....
It all started with that Computron dangit....I never found him and he's now my Loch Ness Monster of TF bargain items...
This isn't to brag but it really blew my mind: I found Superion and Menasor for my best friend's son for Christmas, an extra Superion for me which I didn't really want, but then fell in love with, two Fortress Maximus's (never thought I'd see the day, ever) one for my buddy and one for me, a Sky Lynx, a Sky Warp (always my favorite Seeker) and then lastly, after coming up short at 3 Ross's I found four of those year of the monkey Optimus Primals at one store.
Just amazing.
Thank you Seibertron community, thank you so much. I have to give nods to the other TF sites that broke this news too like Allspark and TFormers. I love all those sites but Seibertron is my favorite. Come on, by far, we all know it's awesome. This made for one of the most incredibly TF collecting years of my life. And I'm now going to keep everyone here posted if I find anything new.
Thanks again everyone! Keep the hunts alive!

Don't forget to use the sightings section as well to give your fellow local collectors a heads up!

Happy hunting everyone!

Well if you have a fiVe BEL°W in your neighborhood you might be able to score some Mini-cons for $3 each
Kind of a random assortment.

The same thing can be done with Masterpiece Bumblebee, which can be acquired for $ 49.98 CAD (about $38 CAD) by using the same coupon.
You can also use the same coupon for any Hasbro purchase exceeding $50, where $20 will automatically be deducted, but we wanted to highlight these two items since they have just been heavily discounted as well. This specific coupon is good until February 2. There will be two more fun Hasbro coupons in the coming months, as can be seen below. So keep the links bookmarked. Let us know if you pick these toys up!

Or is Fort Max not included as a clearance product?
Posted by -Kanrabat- on January 23rd, 2017 @ 4:01am CST

Still, it's HST. Meaning that Canadians would STILL be charged a minimum of 30$ in FedEx shipping fees. Making the whole coupon thing pointless.
Better go to TrU with a partner for Maxou.

I was able to use it for Bee and others were able to use it fir Max. Just give it a shot, it should work.
And Kanrabat, you can go to the store and use the coupon printed out.

Why would I be a sucker and pay like 150$ with taxes for a toy I might get cheaper in a few months? Worst case, I don't get him, which is ok since I have zero attachment for this character.
As the article says, you can get him for 130$.
And yeah, he was found in a US store for little, but we dont have that store in Canada (Ross) and the markets are very different.

You can now get all 3 complete series for under $50!

I was a Fortmax denier but when I finally got mine at 129$CAN (all included) I fell in love. It definitely look better than Metroplex and unless they produced a ridiculous overstock, Fortmax will be worth more than what you paid for down the line. Even used without a box.

But you're forgetting about the cassettes, too. Different color cassettes are worth it. Plus Megatron. And another energy cube, and a clear gun. Just keep Soundwave in the box.

Are they not made of the plastic that breaks at the joint if you look at them funny? Not GPS this time, I mean transparent plus they are fragile as hell before they are made of flimsy plastic
