Fellow Seibertronians! Are you thinking Transformers? Are you thinking Studio Series? Are you thinking discounts!? Then you should DEFINITATELY be thinking GEEK!

According to our own Megatronus (of Twincast fame!), it looks like some ThinkGeek stores are discounting their wave 1 and 2 Voyager and Deluxe Class Studio Series Decepticons. They were marked down to $16.97 and 25.97, respectively, and with the additional 50% off clearance items. The regular MSRP for Studio Series Deluxes is $19.99 USD and for Voyagers $29.99 USD. Megatronus was able to purchase deluxe Crowbar (wave 1) for all of $8.49, and voyagers Starscream (wave 1), Brawl (wave 2), and Megatron (wave 2) for $12.99 each! Keep in mind that Deluxe wave 1 also includes Stinger and Deluxe wave 2 also includes Lockdown.

Megatronus asked if GameStop was having a similar promotion, since GameStop owns Thinkgeek, but the employees drew a distinction between the two retailers when it comes to these kinds of clearance sales.

Have you been waiting to push the button on the Studio Series line? Will this deep discount from Think Geek be enough for you to make a purchase? Let us know in the comments below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all the latest news on everything Transformers!

This might be old news now, but the sale of Hot Rod can be used in store, but, you have to have the page of walmart.com up on your phone (or whatever device you use) so that the cashier can see it. It took a manager to confirm it was the same item, but they did honor the walmart.com price of $12.97 in store.

I went to my local thinkgeek and no luck. They were on clearance but no 50 percent off sale.

I just went through this too. Apparently Walmart is only price matching their own website. It still took many minutes before the sales associate I was working with confirmed they are the same item... :roll:

Spare yourselves the hassle of employees who aren't in the know. Just order Hot Rod directly from Walmart.com, choose "Pick-Up in Store" instead of shipping, choose a store in your area (trust me, they'll have Roddy in stock), wait for the "ready for pick-up" notice in your email, then go to the store's pick-up lounge and sign in to the kiosk. It'll save you a LOT of time and patience, believe me.

Right. I was just taking advantage of an opportunity of passing by. I hadn't been sure I was going to buy one. (I have a G1 Hot Rod.) Part of it was the price, part of it was getting one in my hand at the store. I thought it would be no big deal to price match.

I guess Walmart has been dealing with a lot of price abuse...

Or the employees are just stupid.

I mean, Wal-Mart doesn’t exactly hire the cream of the crop.

15% off anything but "tech". So all transformers are 15% off. So HTS ebay discount would stack with this disount. Max is $75.

Walmart and it was a pad of them stuck to the shelf in the TF section. Doesn't appear to be retailer specific either.

Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronian Carytheone and Hushed, we have a triplicate of deals for you to check out!

Up first, over at Entertainment Earth, we have a 1-day deal where you can purchase the Unicron-corrupted Rodimus Unicronus figure from Power of the Primes for $19.99! This deal lasts today only, and if you spend $25 or more, you get free shipping!

Up next, we get a cool crossover in the form of Duracell batteries! Duracell has been noted at several Walmart's to have fliers available in the Transformers section, advertising the deal of $5 saved if you purchase at least $24.88 in Transformers products (which is the usual Walmart price for a Voyager Power of the Primes figure) and either 1 pack of AA/AAA batteries (8-pack or larger) or 1 pack of C, D, or 9V batteries (4-pack or larger). This coupon is good through May of next year.

And finally, it looks like Entermann's is keeping busy, as we now know Target is offering a free $5 off coupon with the purchase of 2 Transformers toys and 2 Entenmann's 5-packs of Little Bites! This offer does not specify any size class restrictions for the Transformers bought.

So now with 3 sale options, roll on out and go get yourself some great toys (and batteries and Little Bites) and let us know what you pick up with this deals!

Took advantage of the batteries coupon this past Wednesday. Price matched the online G1 Hot Rod reissue, picked up two (one for me, another for a friend), and just met the price threshold. Scored a G1 TF I never had, helped out a friend, and got cheap batteries. :DANCE:

Looking for a last minute purchase on Hasbro Toy Store? Well we have a promo for you! Thanks to the due diligence of fellow Seibertron users, Hellscream9999 and Carytheone, we've learned of a new seasonal promotion. To coincide with the release of the Transformers Bumblebee movie, Hasbro Toy Shop has put together a new 15% Off Promo! Just use the code: "BuzzBuzz" to get the discount. Don't forget that if you spend over $14.99 you can be eligible for free shipping.

To promote this new promo, Hasbro has created a rather festive image of Bee:

Will you be taking advantage of this code? Or will you now be relying on Santa to fill your stockings with Transformer goodies? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews.

Quick question...for those that have been seeing the Siege line at Target stores in the continental US, are the battle masters 4.99 or 5.99? (Sorry I did see them twice, but wasn't really paying attention). If they are 5.99 (same as HTS), then the 15% off code is worth it, if they are $4.99 at Target stores, then it's not.

Bms are $5.99 at Target, minicon sets are $9.99 and the deluxes are $19.99.

Sorry if it’s already been pointed out, but Power of the Primes Predaking is down to $105.42 on Amazon. I think that’s the lowest price we’ve seen yet.

Nope. I got it off Amazon during BF for $95. Walmart had it a week later for about $10 less. And HTS via eBay just had it a few days ago for $65.

I don't have any documentation, but Target in Austin Texas is having 30% clearance on Power of the Primes Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class. Out of 8 Targets I stopped by, more than half had the Power of the Primes Clearanced.

Out of the 8 Targets I stopped by, one had Bumblebee Soundway for 30% off.
