Hasbro Pulse Power Days Sales Event Will Save You 40% on a Combined $75+ Purchase

Thanks! While black zarak was tempting, I have no link to that character and it's way too big. I don,t have that kind of space anymore. I did get the jruassic park set, at that price I'm willing to get it regardless of the flaws. I also got several studio series toys that did not make it to Canada (like Ratchet, Brawn and Starscream) as well as Tricranius. I wanted that triceratops fossilizer.

Picked up an ugly galvatron figure, oh well, I can keep thre unicron bits and sell him on or go for upgrades and have it resemble the change on my movie shelf (until they do a RED reformatting version). Finally caved for the Ravage set, sometimes it's good to get behind on collections yay!

Another reason for you to pass on Black Zarak is that you already have Scorponok.
I did the opposite. Skipping Sporpy and getting Blacky.

Too bad the shipping price, taxes, and exchange rate still make buying those things "on sale" pretty prohibitive for us Canadians.

Big thanks for the heads up. I got Covert Agent Ravage, and Studio Series 86 Perceptor, Jazz, Sweep, and Coronation Starscream. I'll just consider it a Father's Day gift to myself hahaha.
I am seriously tempted to go back and order Black Zarak as well, since I passed on Scorponok...

Hitting this up big time! I do have Scorponok, but to be able to get Black Zarak at almost 72 bucks off is too awesome to pass up! Plus I love base and city building so to have him out with the others will be great.
Also getting Covert Agent Ravage, Artfire, Dk2-Guard, Lift Ticket, Perceptor, and Bee movie Brawn, Ratchet, and Wheeljack.
Saving 165 bucks from what I would have paid if I got these full price!

It's definitely a great deal...hindsight is such a pain . Anyway... I really want to get Gigawatt as a gift for a friend, and this is a great opportunity, however I cant justify any other purchases to reach the $75 threshold. I tried a few different options, and at the very least I'm still going to spend about $55 after shipping for a gift, and a couple items I really dont want or need.

Plus I'm going to a small toy show this Saturday, the first in almost a decade! so I am excited, seeing things in person is always more enjoyable than shopping online. If I don't score anything exciting, then I can revisit this Saturday night as it will still be going, some items will not doubt sell out (I think that is what Hasbro is hoping at least), but we shall see.

Best deal would be the Super7 GI Joe BAT Trooper that costs exactly $75 (and would be $51.99 after the discount and shipping).

You could also get 7 Core Class figures that would cost about $80 at retail, now only about $55.

This is the best deal us canadians are going to get for most of these toys, even beats clearance prices. And I don't really understand why you are including taxes since we'd pay the same taxes if we bought them at local retail, it's 15% either way

Deluxes are $13 USD, so 17 CAD instead of 35 CAD if bought locally
Voyagers (and that exclusive fossilizer triceratops) is only $20 USD, so 25 CAD instead of 48 CAD if bought locally
And the Jurassic park set is only $63 USD so 80 CAD instead of 138 CAD if bought locally

I bought 3 voyager priced figures, 5 deluxes and the Jurassic Park set for a total of 323 CAD shipping and taxes included.

If bought locally, that would have been 525 CAD taxes included.

So I just saved $200 CAD, so 40% off the local prices. It's the best deal we've gotten in a looooooooooooooong time.

Ugh, so many figures I bought for full price, now on sale...Covert Ravage, Jurassic Park, X-Spanse...too bad SG Starscream is already sold out.

I could get a bunch of $17.50 CAD deluxes though...just have to order enough to make shipping worthwhile...

80$CAN for the JP set is amazing. I thought the one I got at 115$CAN was the best deal.

I'll take a look but I have the feeling that everything on sale will be things that I already have.

EDIT:

Well, I did manage to find things that I cannot get otherwise. The total price wasn't so bad especially now that deluxes are 35$CAN plus taxes. Plus having Hades Megatron for the price of a freaking deluxe was an opportunity that I couldn't pass up.

Pulse purchase.png

I'm glad you were able to take advantage of this. I see you didn't get the studio series deluxes, do you have all those already?

Big thanks on the post.

Black Zarak was the first item clicked into my Cart. Only item I really wanted that I had go out of stock on me was SS Perceptor. Not a big deal as I scored him from my local Target for only about $4 more. Well worth the price paid.

I waivered on a few items like the Jurassic Park and the Tricranius sets but decided against, largely because I was so bad on this sale. My wallet hurts but I have good stuff headed my way. That eases the pain.

I was there pretty much right when it started to grab a Black Zarak just in case it sold out by the time I got home from work. Didn't realize I'd be home from work early today though and it's not sold out yet so I guess I worried for nothing. They must have given him a larger run than I thought.

Like others, I am kind of mad over this sale. The last time Pulse had a sale like this there was nothing of note available in it. This time it's almost everything. I picked up multiples of some of these at full price and I could've had them at 40% off. I can't be too mad though as it's not like anyone saw this coming as again, last sale had nothing included in it. It is what it is and there's no use getting mad. It's also not like I knew some of those weren't going to come close to selling out either.

There's still a few more things I'm going to pick up but have to wait until later today or tomorrow to get them.

william-james88 wrote:I'm glad you were able to take advantage of this. I see you didn't get the studio series deluxes, do you have all those already?

Either I already have them, or had zero interests in them.
I rarely buy SS Bay Transformers. I mostly aim for my favorites.

Also, a shame that the Legacy deluxes were not part of the deal. Not only I'll have to pay full price, but I'll have to wait until July for Amazon to deliver.

I am very glad I was hesitating on this. This sale was a godsend!

Wow, Pulse already shipped my Premium Finish SS Megatron. I thought it would be a few days for them to start getting stuff out.

I'm glad people are getting a lot out of this sale, it really made it worth posting about. I remember one year when they did this sale they only thing they had for Transformers was like 3 old figures that nobody wanted, it was more of a Star Wars and Marvel sale. This was a very pleasant surprise.

The amount of stuff on sale is truly shocking. They must have really wanted to move some stock, i am grateful for the sale!

I only wish SS Devastator and Selects Volcanicus had still been around, this sale would have been great for them

D-Maximal_Primal wrote:I only wish SS Devastator and Selects Volcanicus had still been around, this sale would have been great for them

The SS Devastator and Selects Abominus were among the things that sold out in the first hour of the sale. Looks like they're slowly cleaning up some of the sales listing, though MP Starscream 2.0 was also sold out in the first hour and is still listed.

Things I'm surprised have yet to sell out:
Black Zarak (massive savings on an amazing Titan)
Commander Class Rodimus Prime (a lot of people said he should have been a Leader)
Shattered Glass Goldbug (fun, good looking figure and the price made him a good deal)
SS Sweep (I was sure the arm builders would snap him up quick)
Agent Ravage (either his initial sales weren't good or they made way too many)
Selects Galvatron (some people prefer toy or Galvatron II colors)
Jurassic Park Collaborative (a much fairer price for a very simple deluxe and a Leader repaint)
Selects Guard and Lift-Ticket (new Diaclone repaints and Guard only just showed up at some stores)

Emerje

Having known, I would have bought DK-Guard at that sale, rather than the absurd 45$CAN plus taxes (36$US) at Toys R Us.

Saweeeet! Great selection! Picked up ss86 starscream, ss86 jazz, ss86 blurr, ss86 wreck-gar x2, kingdom ark, kingdom rodimus, kingdom magnus, kingdom warpath, and gs artfire.

Looks like I should have waited for Bulkhead...

I got SS Brawn and Legacy Iguanus since those were the only ones I was after that were still in stock. I was thinking about Wreck-Gar, but he was gone by the time I logged in . Instead I got a SS Wheeljack for my brother who doesn't have a Pulse account, and that cool-looking Blaster vs. Soundwave t-shirt since they're some of my favourites.

I put in one order, then realized Father's day is in a few weekends, so I put in another. I went for things I originally passed on and another sweep.

Order 1: Selects Galvatron and SG Blurr
Order 2: SS86 Starscream and a 3rd sweep.

ER Starscream and TR Scourge (who was my 3rd sweep) will be going to the ebay pile to offset some of the costs although screamer might have to wait a bit since the SS86 version is so saturated right now. Too bad BBTS had DK Guard come in last week.

Really looking forward to my shipping notice, I went big on this Pulse sale:

Same, but we can never know these things. This is an old fashioned warehouse sale from the supplier, these arent things we can predict and they happen in a haphazard way. While some shaterred glass toys are available, those who hesitated on Shaterred Glass Megatron are now paying $65 on e-bay. And It's way worse for Jetfire, who's double the price now.

Best parts of your purchase are the JP set and the Pulse exclusive Bones-n-fires set. As for the other SS figures, was it because they became cheaper than getting them locally?

Mine was:

Shattered Glass Megatron (I have SG Prime so it makes sense to have him even if Prime gets used for vehicle mode for MP Evangelion)

Shattered Glass Starscream (another tetra jet and evens out 2 of each faction with Prime/Ratchet)

Reformatting Galvatron (because price and for the bits more than anything else, maybe it will change my mind on the figure being awful but doubting it)

Lift ticket (I cant refuse hoist in different colors despite having botcon Lift ticket)

Roadrage (to go in car mode next to MP, if I like it I might pick up Tracks to do same rather than classics)

Waspinator (I'm too lazy to track down T30 version which is better to me in some ways and not in others. I might now be collecting all the base predacons sans Megatron though I'd only get Scorponok if I could get upgrades but might end up with the buzzworthy one anyways)

Covert Ravage (whilst he needs to be bigger to go with RED Cheetor and MP Primal he's the only cat bot that looks good from Kingdom and getting a figure of him otherwise is £££)

Road Ranger and Puffer (for Road Ranger mostly and if I fail to pick up pipes then I kind of have him).

Buzzworthy Kup (they had me at removable limbs, reminds me of the days when star wars was good and it will replace TR kup on my movie shelf, Takara Legends Kup is still with my Takara/headmaster shelves)

I'd have picked up SG Jetfire if he was available, Rodimus still needs to drop to £45 or under for me. Indemands doing a cheaper sale on the 10th so I might end up kicking myself on some of the purchases but with selects cheaper than retail deluxes and the best current price for the exclusives. I think I'm good, if not poorer for it and likely too skint to order anything from indemand by the time their sale drops.

They werent easy to find locally since only Gamestop had them and I didn't see them regularly (saw Ratchet for the first time just the other day). And yes, with all expenses and exchange, the deluxes come out to $20 CAD a piece, which is a great deal for me.

@Blackeyedprime, that's cool. It means Pulse UK had a good sale too and they have products we didn't have anymore like Buzzworthy Kup and Shattered Glass Megatron.

Guess for once, I was luckier than you in my hunt with the SS Bee Movie toys. Even though I paid "full" prices each figures. And yeah, all were indeed found at GameStop.

That surprise sale was quite the boon!

I just got an email from Pulse saying that "my order is on its way!"
My heart skipped a beat thinking about HASLAB Victory Saber... Then I remembered the Pulse sale.

You've been lucky on a few occasions. You were the first between us to find the legacy toys as well. We all have our moments.

And yeah, part of my order shipped out too

Went back for more today and snagged the Jurassic Park set and Gigawatt. Both are too awesome to pass up at these prices.

heads-up--
If you have Target Circle,
there's a $10 off of $60 in-store purchase promotional offer.
It's not a crazy good deal, but it's something!

FYI - Those will vary from person to person and not everyone may get one. Mine is $15 off $90, for reference.

Looks like they've split mine into four parcels...grumbles, which would be fine if it wasnt being delivered by Yodel.*

*four parcels might be an understatement as I just got three parcels and only one of them had two items in it. Surely it takes one person to think we are gonna need a bigger box hahahah SG starscrems box a bit squished despite him being the only thing in the parcel and SG megatrons looks kinda yellow before its seen any kind of light.

Hasbro pulse added more SG jetfire on the final day but resistance was strong (as was lack of cash) as well as Baynus Devy at £150 after the 40% off but its sometimes available around £160 on ebay from hasbro when ebay does discount codes.

Oh some of my boxes were beat up and would not work for a MIB collector. It didn't happen during method though, the damage occured at the warehouse or before.

Gamestop's Deal of the Day today is the Hasbro Transformers Jurassic Park Mash-Up Tyrannocon Rex at $63.00 with free shipping. Here's the link:

https://www.gamestop.com/collectibles/f ... 98771.html

Deep Discount is living up to its name with Masterpiece prices!

Skyfire $214.63
Yukikaze $116.68

Ordered both. Even after canceling my BBTS Jetfire and losing my deposit I'll still save $30 or so over their price. Free shipping, too.

Emerje

Fellow Seibertonian Emerje brought up something prety cool on our boards. The website Deep Discount also has the latest Takara Masterpiece figures on preorder at prices that are pretty hard to beat. For instance, MP Jetfire is $214 while the latest Trainbot to make MP Raiden is only $116.
We just wanted tolet you know in case you were intersted in some deals.

Would have posted that myself, but I only slept two hours and it took three tries just to write that much. Thanks for the assist.

Nearly 25% off an unreleased preorder? That's a little too good to be true isn't it? And reviews I've seen for the site are mostly negative. https://www.sitejabber.com/reviews/deepdiscount.com

Hopefully it works out, but I'm sticking with tfsource.

I could literally take all those complaints and replace Deep Discount with Walmart or Target who have canceled more than a dozen of my pre-orders over the past two years, it's just a chance we take when we place a pre-order anywhere, especially now as we're still working through pandemic related delays and shortages.

Does deep discount charge in advance?

chuckdawg1999 wrote:Does deep discount charge in advance?

Yes they charge as soon as you order. I can understand why some people have had issues. I personally never have, although I've only pre ordered Blu Ray and DVD a couple months in advance with DD. Import toys are more likely to cancel if sufficient stock cannot be obtained.

Guys I dunno how reliable this site is. May not be good to advertise it here.

I went ahead and bit the bullet. I pre-ordered from deepdiscount Skyfire. It's been many years but had pre-ordered a monsterarts godzilla figure and had no issues. Buying Preoders from Japan and paying up front is no big deal. Just use a credit card not PayPal. If things go south you do a charge back since the bank looks at when the item is released not actual date of charge. Also found a 10% coupon online 'plunge' without quotes. If doesn't pan out can do a charge back and should be readily available from others on release. Should follow this post at time of release to see what the experience was next year.

Actually, I used google and checked their site, they don't charge until the pre-order ships. I really hope that's true as I PO both and that's a massive hit to a credit card at once.

Also, I've used Deep Discount before. The only problem I had with them is that they're slow to update their site. I ordered a bunch of stuff on sale only to get an email after placing the order that several of the items were canceled because they were out of stock. Apparently, that happens a lot with them.

I'm sticking with retailers I know. With no pre-order charges. Speaking of which, why am I still unable to preorder Skyfire or Trainbot #3 on Amazon.jpn? Please help geezers!!

Lando Tucker wrote:I'm sticking with retailers I know. With no pre-order charges. Speaking of which, why am I still unable to preorder Skyfire or Trainbot #3 on Amazon.jpn? Please help geezers!!

Skyfire is a Takara Mall exclusive and won't be up on Amazon Japan. No idea where train bot 3 is but the new Sentai and Shinkalion toys are very tempting.

Lando Tucker wrote:I'm sticking with retailers I know. With no pre-order charges. Speaking of which, why am I still unable to preorder Skyfire or Trainbot #3 on Amazon.jpn? Please help geezers!!

Yukikaze is just slow getting on there but Skyfire is a Takara Tomy Mall exclusive for some unknown reason, he wont be showing up on Amazon Japan.

I should point out that Deep Discount does charge at order for PayPal payments, not for cards but they will do a charge hold. I have a bunch of stuff pre-ordered with them right now, but none of it is anything I have to worry over missing out on if they end up canceling. They sent me Legacy Arcee the other day, but still waiting on Drag Strip and Kickback. If they cancel Skyfire and Yukikaze on me I think they'll still be readily available elsewhere.

Yeah, they will be available at all the online Hasbro retailers for the Hasbro release.

Day 9 since I placed my Pulse order from the sale and still hasn't shipped. I'm sure they got a ton of orders, but 9 days?

Yeah same boat here, the Coronation Screamer and extra Sweep I ordered to be my Father's Day present, is looking like they won't make it in time.
