    Theres no way this can be gone, I mean its a friggin exclusive! Toys R Us only has so many stores it would benefit them to unload most of these online. Either way I got my PO in yesterday :D

    I just get a blank page as well. The listing is gone not sure what to make of it usually they don't remove a listing for a sold out item so quickly.

    The link is dead now. I'm starting to think actual giraffes run TRU. Idiots.

    Was it always meant to be $59.99? Maybe they screwed up on the price and took the listing down because of that.

    Who the hell knows. I wouldn't be surprised if all of us who preordered over the past two days get our accounts refunded (or the hold lifted). The baboons over at TRU had Grimlock up for sale for about a day a few months ago and I believe that's what happened. Then on Hasbro's site they post that this will be available at TRU on 7/1. Then about a week after 7/1 it's announced that this will first be sold at the SDCC, by Entertainment Earth, for $70. Now they take preorders for two days and delete the page. Brilliant stuff.

    i inquired bout the 49.99 price in the email. this was my response
    Dear Mr. So****,

    Thank you for contacting RUs.com with regard to the charges on your
    Order #745*******.

    I have been able to research this order for you and I can confirm that
    you will be charged $49.99 for the item, $3.94 for tax, and $6.30 for
    shipping, totaling $60.23. I can also confirm that you have not yet
    been charged for this order because we only charge for items once they
    have actually shipped and the Exclusive Transformers Masterpiece
    Grimlock Action Figure has not been shipped as of yet.

    I hope this clarification proves useful for you, Ma?am, and I thank you
    again for contacting RUs.com. We value your business and look forward
    to serving you in the future!

    Sincerely,

    Cynthia Holiday

    They raised the price on the the Halo Reach SDCC exclusive figure too, from $16.99 to $17.99.

    lol I'm so happy I got my $800 in free figures from toysrus.com when I did.
