    I know I don't remember seeing him for less than $100 and I know he didn't show up at Ross or TJ Maxx. At least not locally anyway. But the cheapest CW Devastator is when HTS switched to its new website format and I guess a programming error mispriced their SDCC version of CW Devastator to dirt cheap.

    You are correct. I remember reading about that on the boards back in 2015. But I think the 1 cent things was the exception to the markdown ha, most everyone else is talking about.

    Metroplex Went to costco for cheap.
    Devesatator hit $100 price point on amazon during the Christmas season of 2015 (I remember because i was sent the link to a friend at the time)
    Fort Max showed up at both Ross and Ollie’s for around $50
    Trypticon hit Ollie’s for around that same price (this summer if I’m remembering correctly)/

    Oh thank God. I tried to go back and find some posts about the 1 cent Devastator but was not finding any. I was starting to wonder if I dreamed that all up. :lol 

    Yea, I know a pricing error is not the same as discount closeouts but it was still the cheapest Devestator I ever remember seeing....or hearing about. I missed out on that so I didn't actually see it when it was 1 cent.

    People are chiming in about what they remember. I know I don't remember any news about Devastator being at a closeout location, but if you can offer proof, that would be good for ending the debate.

    Cool. Debate settled.
    While Costco isn't a closeout store like Ollie's or Marshall's, the $70 pricetag is pretty impressive.

    Just a reminder if anyone missed out on all those badass deals, the superior Unite Warriors Devastator reissue can still be had through Amazon JP for like ($20?) over the inferior 2015 MSRP CW Devastator price, and pretty much half the current MSRP of the inferior-inferior SDCC one. :p 

    https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/B0116GRPCM

    ~$160 USD and they are only charging $10 USD for shipping! What?! :eek: 

    Your miliage may vary when you order. But ships Feb 2019.

    Happy hunting.:)

    They also use DHL global shipping, so your stuff gets to you in 3 days. It's absurd how good of a deal amazon.jp shipping is compared to every other Japanese export outlet.

    Yeah...SE locations didn't get it. Or Metroplex. I was bummed as hell (Costco employee here). We're getting a remote-controlled vehicle by Jada this year. Woo hoo...

    There is a store called "dirt Cheap" something like that that had cw devs for closeout prices, i remember this being mentioned years back. Not well known, but a regional closeout store.

    It was Canadian Costco. I don't think we even got Devastator at Costcos in the US.

    No wonder I remembered I got it for 70 CAD, but I thought it was at ToysRUs.
