While out running errands today, I stopped at my local Target. As usual, the store didn’t have anything new. However, I noticed that, like Toys R Us and Wal-mart, they had dropped the price of their Star Wars toys. Clone Wars, Saga and Legends figures were all $4.99 and battle packs and vehicles were marked down to $22.99 and $19.99, respectively. Star Wars Transformers were also marked down to $13.99, but even at this price, I’d be hard pressed to buy them.

Someone at Target must have noticed the pegs full of Tuner Mudflaps weren’t selling so they marked down deluxes to $8.99. Scouts were also marked down to $6.99, which is still a dollar more than Toys R Us. The best deal was probably Voyagers, which were marked down to $14.99. These price cuts run until (I think) 6/2.

Toys R Us is running a sale on basic Star Wars figures this week. Normally priced at $6.99 each, Clone Wars, Legacy and Saga Legends figures are now two for $10.99.

If Transformers are your thing, Toys R Us also has Revenge of the Fallen deluxe figures on sale for $7.99. This is a pretty good price considering they normally go for $11.99 at TRU and $10 at Target and Walmart.
If you missed some of the Black Friday sales, you’re in luck. According to this week’s ad, Walmart has rolled back the price of Star Wars and G.I. Joe action figures to $6. Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Fast Action Battlers and deluxe toys have also been marked down to $8. The sale runs until December 12th.

If you missed the Turbo Tank deal at Target a few months ago, you’ll probably want to hit your local Toys R Us on November 1st. According to Yakface, the retailer will have the Turbo Tank and the exclusive Republic “Crumb Bomber” Gunship on sale for $79.99 and $49.99, respectively.

If you missed Toys R Us’ Transformers Universe sale the first time around, you’re in luck. Until August 5th, you can pick up Universe Ultras and Voyagers for 50% off. As before, the sale does not include deluxe class Universe figures, ROTF toys or the exclusive Universe Ultras.

Looking to get the new Star Wars Turbo Tank for the special kid or Star Wars collector in your life? Before you drop $100 on the toy, you’ll want to check out this deal. Target.com is currently running a promotion where you get $30 off a Hasbro purchase of $90 or more. This alone brings the price down to a more digestable $70. However, you can apply coupon code 4MMHDHBE during checkout and receive an additional 10% off plus free shipping. Depending on the tax in your area, the end result is a price of about $65.
Update: Well, that didn’t take long. The Turbo Tank is already sold out.
Update 2: The 4MMHDHBE coupon code is no longer valid. Use the code S6BP388J to take an additional 10% off.
If you missed the Star Wars The Clone Wars AT-TE the first time around, Toys R Us is giving you another chance to pick up this badass toy. Better yet, as part of their “Christmas in July” promotion, they will have the AT-TE on sale for a mere $49.99. The sale begins on July 19th and you’ll probably want to be there when the doors open if you want to score one of these. Otherwise, if you’d rather sleep in and pay to have it shipped to your home, the AT-TE is already on sale online for $49.99.

It appears that Toys R Us is trying to clear out the huge pile of Transformers Universe and Animated toys clogging up the shelves at most stores. Until July 18th, you can pick up Universe Ultras and Voyagers as well as Animated Supreme, Leaders and Bumper Battlers for 50% off. Unfortunately, the sale does not include deluxe class figures, Animated Voyagers or the exclusive Universe Ultras.

I usually don’t shop at ALDI, but during Christmas and Easter, they usually have some good deals on toys. Starting March 29th, ALDI has Star Wars comic packs on sale for $9.99 and Transformers Animated deluxes for $8.99. Stores only get a limited number of these toys so for best selection, I recommend stopping early in the week.
With the new Transformers movie only a few months away, retailers have begun to clear out their stock of Animated toys. This week, Target lowered the price of its deluxe class figures down to $8.99. While not as good as the pre-holiday prices, this is a lot better than the $12.99 that Wal-mart is charging. The sale runs until 4/6, but knowing Target, it could end at any time.
