Time saved only wish TRU would stop advertising them selves as a shoprunner member when a good bulk of there products dont count for the free 2 day shipping to shoprunner members, but they never fail to advertise post sale use that service next time even though it isnt an option. The very reason I love Amazon Prime.
It says right on their website that you have to order $49 or more in order to receive free shipping. Order 2 or add a small item to your order to qualify for free shipping. Don't forget you are paying a premium fee for Amazon Prime (that is well worth the money if you order a lot from Amazon).
Purchase $49 or more in additional eligible merchandise to qualify for Free Shipping
I ordered 2 Jetfires and got the free shipping.

why the hell would they even PUT it on the stupid site for pre-order if it not ready for a pre-order??!!?
dumb.
Posted by MenaceRX on July 10th, 2014 @ 9:45am CDT
Talked with a TRU rep and she told me this for Shoprunner "The option is only available on certain items, shop runner chooses which items they want to be eligible for the free shipping, it will say under the item on the page where it says special offers if it is eligible."
That kind of sucks that it is so selective and really since I am not paying for the service its ok but disappointing none the less.
Anyway they have decided not to offer it on alot of the toys as of late.
Separately yes I love my Prime membership had it for a few years now, between the shipping, and the streaming of TV, Movies, Book borrowing and now Music downloads its a fantastic service well worth the $99 price tag. If you can get it with the student discount or one of the other discounts its even better in value.

Same here...got the acknowledgement and confirmation emails from TRU as I ordered (2) Jetfire.

You cant start my day off with happy thoughts of ordering this and now... now not feeling so good.
Ordered with my AMEX card. Not sure how other paid, some said paypal. But I dont know why that should determine if your order gets filled unless you dont have the funds.

I had payed through the PayPal option on this order. With my second attempt at Jetfire only, the order was placed just after my first order was cancelled, but this time I paid by credit card, and I just received the confirmation email at about an hour and 15 minutes after the acknowledgement email.
I wouldn't be surprised if they quit taking Paypal preorders as they don't seem to know what they're doing. I've still yet to have my Paypal transaction actually completed for the Legacy Dragonzord they sent me 2 months ago.

I agree with the fact that the price will drop most likely. I figure either I'll cancel my pre-order if I can or buy a couple more and take them back to TRU when they ship. I really do not like dealing with TRU either...their shipping is atrocious . I'm surprised TRU got their pre-order up and nothing on Amazon yet. Amazon will still be the best deal most likely.
What would really suck is Walmart throwing in a free generations deluxe in a bundle and missing out on that.

Not going to happen with regular Generations toys which always see much more limited availability compared to the very widely ordered Movie products. Less products equals more demand which equals less competition at retail which means less opportunities for "deals" or "bargains".
$40 plus tax or shipping is a fair price for the Generations Leader Class toys.

They're on the outside of his legs. They're not aimed at his crotch.

Let me put it this way, would you wear a gun that way?

Why not? It worked for Cybertron Optimus Prime.

There not pointing towards him though are they, all I'm saying is the placement of the guns on his legs look ugly and defy logic.

This isn't really the thread to discuss that, but what we know is that Hasbro is releasing Sideswipe and Bluestreak via Toys "R" Us. No word of what Takara's got cooking after Wheeljack, Bumblebee, Ultra Magnus, and Star Saber.

Apparently all the cancelations were due to some internal processing error, so they advised me to redo my order for Jetfire. I just finished submitting it, so let's see what happens.
My biggest concern was I didn't want to be changed for the small purchase I tacked on for free shipping They assured me that they wont charge me, which led me to believe if I hadn't said anything they would have charged shipping for it
Of course, if I find it in the store before it ships I will cancel it.

Certainly an option, but usually you get it sooner with a preorder and don't have to make a bunch of wasted trips to the store hunting for it. So you get it sooner for the same price and no wasted time and gas searching it out...but if you're the patient type, waiting to come across it in store works too.

Good to see those leg guns are reovable, now if only those chrome parts were solid red plastic!
