While there were lots of deals on HDTV’s and Blu-ray players, Black Friday was a bust for most toy collectors this year. The shelves were fully stocked at most of the stores I stopped at but, as far as prices go, there wasn’t much to get excited about.

Transformers Animated Optimus Prime vs. Megatron – Possible Black Friday Item At Target?

Kremzeek — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 15:05:41 +0000

While Thanksgiving is still more than a month and a half away, stores are beginning to stock up in preparation for “Black Friday.” While out shopping with my family, I came across a bunch of the Transformers Animated: Battle Begins sets with Optimus Prime and Megatron. Along with the six or so on the shelf, there were nearly 30 sets up on the riser.

This is pure speculation at this point, but could this set be a “Black Friday” item? Given, these sets aren’t selling very well, but the last time I saw so many Transformer toys was when they had the Star Wars Millenium Falcon on sale a couple of years ago.

Transformers Animated Leaders And Roll Out Command Prime Out In The US

Kremzeek — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 01:35:36 +0000

Last week, there were a number of unconfirmed reports that the Leader class Transformers Animated toys had shown up in the US. Thanks to Christoph Prime of the TFW2005 boards , we now have some photographic proof. He found Leader class Bulkhead and Megatron at a Walmart store in Colorado. He also found the Roll Out Command Optimus Prime at another Walmart in his area.

Unfortunately, the selection of Animated toys hasn’t been nearly as good in my area. The sale on Transformers at the Target stores in my area was a total bust. The supposed pallet of toys turned out to be a case of wave 1 Voyagers and Deluxes. Knowing my luck, the wave 3 deluxes will show up the day the sale is over.
