Re: Hasbro Masterpiece Bumblebee spotted in Canada!

Stupidest pricing in TF history, ever.

It's like this: the new trend is to ridiculously overprice this stuff to the tune that only a fool with money to burn would pay the price. Then, when the stock sits for two months, it goes on 'clearance'....for like $30 off! Which is what that first overpriced price SHOULD have been...

...only to have it be further reduced another 20 bucks, and even at THAT price it sits there and shelfwarms. And that then becomes the sticker price, subject to a future discount at some point months down the road.

It happened at Walmart with that super popular remote control Millennium Falcon. But the difference is that you can actually find that on shelves now. I'm sure I'll never see MP Bee in the wild.

No way I'm touching this unless the price comes down to below $70.

And from what I can tell, that yellow is the same colour. So there is literally no good reason to buy one...unless I want to use the box to store my three Takara MP car boxes inside, that is.

Phailure most heinous.

Re: Hasbro Masterpiece Bumblebee spotted in Canada!

It has to be TRU Canada right? Because surely Hasbro would say 'Hey TRU, we have this exclusive with MSRP X'. Then TRU would say 'OK we'll take Y number of units'. And then split them 90-10 to US and Canada. Then after they pay Hasbro, TRU adds their mark-up.

The rumors/rumblings are this is in the TRU USA computers for $65 USD and while that is over-priced down there, it's not double over-priced.

This is a 2 year old toy and it should be $50 USD or C$65 tops.

Could it be a price mistake? Who knows. There are a few examples that pop-up every so often where something screwy happens. One more recent example is the Star Wars TFA Heroes 2-packs: $6.88 USD. C$12.94 up here.

Re: Hasbro Masterpiece Bumblebee spotted in Canada!

Found 6 of them at the Langley TRU, the only good thing is it's at least a decent sized box i guess.
