TheOrcKing Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 A Toys R Us exclusive polybag and the second time Hulk is a minifigure instead of the more appropriate 'big fig'.Source 4 Quote
exciter1 Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 I dig it and it will be available as part of Bricktober in Canada next week October 23-29. It will be available in the US as part of a promo the week of December 6-12. 4 Quote
Miami Bomb Squad Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 How come They always get the cool polys before us? Quote

ravenb99 Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 might have something to do with this great experiment... 2 Quote
Soadfan4ever Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Found these in the wild today, shot down at the register even though I was only trying to buy one. My local store has been strict with these promos lately. Quote

I don't want to miss on this one and my local store is no help when it comes to giving information ahead of time for promotions. Quote

They are locked at the register, but some have been able to acquire them anyway. Quote
Huskers1236 Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 I called the other day and were like They still have some decent older Superheroes sets to use on as well. Quote

About the only thing I like about that set is Quicksilver. Can get Hulk in the better Hulkbuster set and then get Scarlet Witch as well. I don't have any of the new Avengers sets yet, but I'm leaning away from buying any for the long haul as I've been burned by re-issues of figures too much in that theme. 3 Quote

Has the promotion been published? I am curious how much will need to be purchased for Hulk and next week's Stormtrooper. Quote

I'd guess you'll probably need to spend $30 from the Super Hero theme. Only speculating. 52 minutes ago, exciter1 said: I think the Hydra Fortress Smash at the $42.98 discount + TRUTH + Hulk is a good combo. Does the GC trick still work with TRUTH?

But to the crux of your question; I haven't heard what you have to spend. Like Soad said, I'm guessing it's $30. I more than likely can find out for sure tomorrow and will let you know if I do. 1 Quote

I knew that list existed somewhere, but had no idea where and I didn't save it like I saved the roll out list from Lego. As much as I hate shopping at TRU, going to have to grab at least a couple of these during the promotion. E7 C-3PO didn't make it through the promotion here so I wasn't able to buy an extras, only the 2 for my son and I. Quote

YMMV This is one thing I don't understand about TRU. Why would it matter if you're paying with GC? Theoretically and, most likely, 95% of the time, someone has taken X amount of cash and put on a card, and now that card is being used to make a purchase. That's like saying, "Sorry sir, we don't accept cash here." Quote

dcdfan Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 If they're giving you an extra 10% off on Thursday & now Saturday, they want you use the CC not a gift card. Why on earth would they want you to charge $1 & use a GC. It's not that difficult... Quote

Why on earth would they want you to charge $1 & use a GC. It's not that difficult... No, it's not difficult. Just as it's not difficult for one of the largest retailers in the world to remove a few lines of code in a POS system to not allow partial pay. But when that little screen pops up and asks you if you want to Partial Pay, what gives any employee of the store the right to say you can't tap it? So until they remove that option, it's going to be used. Edited December 5, 2015 by Loghamel 1 Quote
