It says 1-2 business days, and does not say pre-order.

I hope they stick to that.

God I hope these stay in stock until tomorrow. My Dad just took out his contacts and didn't feel like using his credit card at 9:40 at night. This is just a total steal for buy 1 get 50% off!

I might have saved some money waiting until they came to Wal-Mart, assuming they'd be $10. But I'm impatient; I just bought them. Cool.

Bought! Thanks a TON for the heads up. The War for Cybertron toyline is the first toyline (subline, whatever) I'm actually considering being a completionist about. All of the molds/concept art look great.

Seeing as though this is a new line, I am willing to bet that walmart will go back up to $12 when they stock them.

Agreed on this ..even with shipping it's a comproable price ..I can deal with it especially since our geting 1 for 5.99...I'd bet money that wal mart in my area will have these out at 12 to start. I picked 2 of each..One of the primes is gonna be a nemesis prime repaint and the BB will be Bugbite!!!!

This is fantastic, don't get me wrong. No hunting for these two for now and maybe getting them before they hit the shelves are a definite plus. However, with tax and shipping, I lost all the savings on the buy one second 50% off, and it would have cost the same as going to the store.

Meh....

Just nabbed one of each. Even with the sale, it cost me only $1 more than it would have to buy them in the store. But that's not including the gas it would have taken me to drive the 16 miles to and from the store each time, if they didn't have them in stock when I went.

Still, i wish there was more on there I didn't have. I could have taken better advantage of the sale.

Damn! It looks like I just missed out on Optimus Prime. I had 2 Primes and 2 Bumblebees in my cart, got all the way through the credit card process. After I submitted my card for payment, I got the following error message:

ToysRUs.com wrote:The following item(s) or quantity is not available. You will not be charged for any item that is not available for shipment.
We have removed the item(s) from your order.

I'd gladly trade someone a Bumblebee for a Prime or take one off someone's hands if you got an extra.

DAMMMMN! As my payment was processing I got a notice that they ran out of Primes. I was able to get bumblebee but that was it. DAAAAAMMMNNN!

I just checked my invoice receipt and according to TRU I only got 1 of each #-o

but i thought I had the quantity set to 2 of each....errrrm... I would have gladly have donated my 2nd Op for the boss man....I didn't see a restriction on how many you could order anywhere either... bummer

it's weird that the actually page still says in stock but you cant even add it to your cart now...

Food for thought, if people would've bought one each instead of two or more there would've been enough Primes.

Please let's not get into that debate. People that bought more than one prior to those of us who couldn't get one had every right to buy more than 1. First come, first serve. I wasn't able to get Prime because I was at a Memorial Day party earlier and didn't have access to my computer when I got the news on my phone. That's no one's fault but my own. Has nothing to do with whether or not someone was able to order more than one. It was limited stock. More will be available soon.

I THINK I ordered one of each, haven't gotten an email about it yet though. Went through the whole process, never was told about changing quantities or anything through the process. So I'm kind of curious if I got them or not......

It would've told you after your credit card was processed that the quantities were adjusted and you wouldn't be charged for the figure.

Yup, I did. Still nothing though. I guess I won't get too worried if my order didn't go through, they'll come out in stores eventually.

I never jump on these things.

Paint details are too sketchy these days for me to pass on picking my particular figure out in the store.

Obsessive?

Yea, duh...of course. All the same, I just like admitting crap like that to see who else is on board and thought they were the only one.

I never believed I was the only one. It's part of the reason I'm trying so hard to wait for Botcon to pick up a few Takara/Tomy items. Although, I've never really gotten a terrible figure in the mail. Now that I've said it, rest assured, that streak is over.

I'm also waiting to see what TT does with these anyway.

Well at least the wheels aren't in front in the picture. A lot of the pictures I have seen for optimus his wheels were in front and I was thinking "Do they not know how to transform them?" Cuz I had seen other pictures where they were in the back and I was like wtf they did it wrong lol.

Toysrus.ca never gets things early, but I wouldn't bother anyway. I'll get them when they're in store.

Though I'm a little more worried about being able to find them now, witnessing the mad rush here...

Hopefully your girlfriend does not know that this is the reason you ran out of funds to take her out.

Someone on TFW is making claim that they called their local TRU and were told these figures should be in stock at the store late this week. Considering they are/were available on the site, supposedly in stock, and no one is getting canceled orders, it's not the hardest thing in the world to believe, but take it for what it's worth: second-hand info from a TRU employee...aka just as likely to be false information, if not more so.
