Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

For the R Club members, 25% off one item.

But what's the point, with the way-over MSRP prices.


I'm just gonna get some baby/kiddie stuff.

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

They're reduced hours for a lot of the stores now actually, since last summer as far as I noticed.

They also took over the locations/signed new leases for the former Bed Bath & Beyond retail stores in Canada, for their home decor business.

I never bothered to look at those stores, but I think...

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Commander Rodimus has been sighted for $50 clearance at some TRU locations (Managers specials), so YMMV based on location.

Some postings have shown them in the electronic wire cage alarm, soon...

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

I honestly don't remember how much TRU listed origins Bumblebee for. Was it $37 or $45?

Buzzworthy Cliffjumper and Kup were $45, and they were the same class size deluxe

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Ah gotcha.

The Buzzworthy line seems to be TRU only, in terms of the bug chains. But as for timing, it'll usually come out either a few weeks or a few months (or many months) after it's released...

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Are you talking about Studio Series 86 Jazz? Cause he came and went a few waves ago.

SS44 Optimus Prime is a recent Buzzworthy repack, and for MSRP recently. If it weren't for the Buzzworthy...

The Sunrise Records location in Sherway Gardens recently closed down. (I'm mentioning this since it's all the same owner)

Wow that's just insulting. MSRP with the 20% off, after wasting your time and gas.

FYI:

Pretty much the final nail in the coffin for shopping at TRU.

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Um, yes they were hard to find at TRU. It was one case per store as far as I saw.

And Cliffjumper is 2 per case (out of a total of 8 deluxes).

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Not to be cynical, but what's the point? You get a birthday coupon to use at TRU and you're paying MSRP (at best, if we're being optimistic here).

And I'm not talking about only TFs either, I mean...

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Are you referring to Fairfax's financial outlook? But it has no bearing on TRU, since Putnam Investments Inc. owns TRU now. And we don't know their financial situation, since they're a private corp.

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Honestly, you're probably better off ordering from a US store or Hasbro Pulse, even with the shipping, taxes and exchange rate (and if you bundle some other TFs in the order,), the pricing for TRU is...

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

That's hilarious.

Indigo had to diversify away from books because the industry is dying/stagnant competition from Amazon.

Yet TRU is investing into books to boost profits.

Re: ToysRUs.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

It's not just TFs, I was about to pull the trigger for a toddler item, then I saw they raised the price by another $10, and I know for sure it wasn't on sale.

Ended up buying it $15 cheaper than...

Kingdom Voyagers are now $49.99, so probably that, or more possibly.

Gotcha. But is the price adjustment period start on the order date or when it's shipped out though?

Pay upfront for a pre-order 3 months at full price with no ability to price adjust? Yeah I'll pass.
