    All I could find were 10% codes.

    http://www.retailmenot.com/view/hasbrotoyshop.com

    All the 20% or shipping codes are done.
    Get them while they are hot! You know online scalpers are gonna get them!

    edit: DISC10 worked for me for 10%, that is all I could find. not 20% + Shipping but it at least levels it back down to retail by covering shipping.

    AAAAAAAAAALSO: Look what it says for wave 1! This product will begin shipping on or about 05/26. YAY!

    HTS has been taking care of us really good!

    PONY10 also worked for me. It gives a 10% off discount. None of the better discount codes work. It still beats the retail price and you save the gas.

    It says that on SOME of the Wave 1 figures, oddly enough, but not others.

    This is why I don't trust HTS preorders. Now, if they get in on May 26th, then by all means, I'll purchase them. But I ain't taking the chance now.

    Oh look, Premium Movie Voyagers are still "coming soon". Screw HTS.

    However, at least people wont have to drop half their paycheck for a Grimmy now.

    Alright! One more month instead of two for some Animated Crack first snuff! So glad I kept my original preorder with the temptation of all those better discount codes.

    Actually, Voyager Wave 1 is 2x Bulkhead, 1x Cybertron Megatron, 1x Starscream, which is why a lot of people saw nothing but Bulkhead in Cinci area stores.

    Anyone else notice that Grimlock has Lugnut's description in his Features secton and they use "chunky" to describe Leader Megs? :lol

    Hasbro mis-transforms AND makes their products have identity issues! :)  Way to go!

    Ordered! The problem with ordering from them is that, much like congress adding a raise to bill that's going to be passed, I alwasy supplement my preordered wtih something else. Like "maybe I should throw in that Iron Man and Indiana jones figure I've been thinking about?"

    Gah...so tempting...I'll have to analyze my funds to see if I can preorder Grimlock and/or Lugnut.

    All the date inconsistencies are rather irritating, though. The leaders are listed as shipping in July, which contradicts the August release date we've heard. All of the Wave 2 figures are listed as 6/23, which seems to indicate that Waves 1 and 2 are being released simultaneously. Finally, all the Wave 1 deluxes are listed as 5/26, while all of the Wave 1 Voyagers remain at 6/23.

    WHAT'S GOING ON?!?! STOP MESSING WITH MY HEAD! XP

    EDIT: Hold the phone...in the time it took me to write this, Starscream changed from shipping on 6/23 to 5/26. Does this mean that they're just in the process of changing the release dates of all of them?

    Starscream is listed at 5/26. Now Cybertron Megatron is listed at 06/23. I think that may be a good thing though because if they ship out everything but him or even him and Bulkhead I can cancel those two after everything else ships and just keep Leader Megatron and Bulkhead preordered.

    I'm just hoping this means that hasbro has upped the release date for toys to arrive in stores as well.
    May 26 is only 20 days away.
    Sweet
