    If I didn't love discount bots, I might not have 14 Brunts...

    Hmm and they let you get the discount on pre-order items? The promo says "Applicable to physical in-stock items ONLY."

    Another non-sale from TFsource. They're actually worse than HLJ. Sorry AzT, but there's nothing here worth buying.
    Most of this stuff is STILL overpriced, and the lurking garbage they can't seem to get rid of remains higher than it has been even in previous sales. I don't know who they think they're fooling.

    If they would just go with an actual discount, they would clear out some space and maybe actually make some money.

    It's at some Targets, but not all - if you're looking for one at this price, check Brickseek to see what the price is at your local Target(s). Some near me are at $15, others are still $30.

    You should stay home and watch some Super-God Masterforce! :)  Double-Dealer ROCKS!!

    Plus, if you look at the recent Generations releases, you might notice Hasbro capitalizing on demand for the obscure characters. Shockwave shelfwarmed because he's tiny and overpriced.

    Hate to get off topic here but... Do people actually end up paying these insane prices for past releases like that? 35 vs 20 for a very hard to find still mint figure from a couple years ago makes a little sense but more than double MSRP? For a deluxe??

    People will pay 1k+ for a small statue. I'm sure this is peanuts to some collectors.

    some additional pics of what TFs some targets might have on clearance:

    4356334F-53DB-486B-972D-04D731A1C972.jpeg

    No discount on the single package for wingspan & pounce I saw/bought ($24.99, but wasn’t the Walgreens exclusive mixed pack ~$13.98?).

    Also some marvel legends (30% off) & mega construx (some 30% off, some 50% off)

    The Walgreens Clone Pack was $18, but was on sale a lot. That was also before the PotP and WFC price increases.

    They call it a sale, but it's really just a list of every item in the store that they already had discounted, even if it was just 5% or less off the original price.

    YMMV, I'm not sure if this is widespread or localized but Siege/ER Voyagers are slightly discounted at my local Walmart.

    I think they've been marked down like this for a while, I got my SS/Grapple 3-4 weeks ago for that, figured 10% off was better then a kick in the pants. (shoulda waited on Grapple for a better sale, was a "quarantine crazy" purchase)
