Many thanks to Prime for his post on our
Transformers Forum regarding a possible Sale on Transformer toys at Toys R Us.
After overhearing a conversation between the instore managers and what
I believe to be a regional manager in TRU yesterday..I believe there
will be a sale on transformers soon...
Words
like 2 weeks, before xmas, price reduction, over stocked, loads more
out the back, no room on the shelves, not sold any 20th anniversary
primes or inferno's etc etc were being muttered.
Now the
vector prime - starscream 2 pack (the reason why I was there) has
already been reduced as we all know..by the sounds of this this is just
the start.
I would still classify this as a rumor so may not happen but going off the level of suits discussing this we can hope.
Problem is the big ones just arn't selling fast enough.

Seibertron are reporting that the upcoming Sony re-release of Transformers: The movie
contains a trailer for Transformers Season 1, to be released in 2007 by Sony BMG. How well this will sell, considering Rhino released the series some time ago, is questionable.

Steve Bax, webmaster of
OneShallStand.com has dropped us an email about a competition he is running to give away a Stormbringer poster thatis made up of the four A covers for issues 1-4. The poster resembles the battle scenes you used to get on the
back of TF toy boxes back in the day.
To enter, all you need do is to answer
five Stormbringer-related questions, so it will be a test of their comic
knowledge too. The closing date is November 12th.
