    Is there any advantage or perk to buy from hasbro? When the first movie came out if you spent so much money they gave you magnets. Are they doing anything like that again this time?

    No perks that I've heard of. The closest thing would be the coupon codes...and you still have to spend $50 or more for at least one of the coupons floating around.

    Well, there is nothing like free magnets (yet), but the main advantage is ordering everything you want at once without having to drive around to various stores. Aside from that, there is a free shipping code on purchases of $25 or more right now.

    I've had those free hasbrotoyshop magnets stuck on my overhead cabinets at work for 2 years now. Everyone always has to mess with them.

    Be advised if you live in the west coast and use the free shipping, it may take more than a week to get to you. HTS ships from Martinsburg, WV and uses smartpost as the cheapest shipping method. If you haven't experienced smartpost before, you're in for a treat from this FedEx/USPS alliance.

    Ahh.... The memories of all those crazy Woot purchases trying to get to me.
