Thanks Jenna, for sharing the pricing of “Transformers at RM80 per box”

But I noticed there are a few other models of the Transformers, anyone knew their prices?

To many who were blur and follow them madness, not all things were discounted much. Eg. starscream was rm80 (retail was Rm119), unleashed spiderman rm50 (retail was rm80, TRU sale was rm35).

I think hasbro purposely threw (pun intended) in some transformers and star wars to create hype and interest. After all, warehouse sales were meant for unpopular items, to clear stocks. Transformers and star wars will always be a collectors’ wet dream, and not suited for such. That is why they tempted the crowd throughout the 2 days, instead of putting them all out on first morning.

i didnt go(mainly becoz of the cracy crowd) but just wanna give my point of view after reading these. I think warehouse sales can be organized in a nicer way if they want to, but definitely not to throw things like that and push each other which is very dangerous especially for ladies & elderly.

Chye, i can’t understand Y u said it was exciting to “push & snatch”. Scary to hear that.

what if those being pushed were your loved ones? Would you still say so??

Chye, no one can really force the ppl, they are still paying for it what. Only thing is, some reasonable measure of control can be applied.

So if each family member queue up, let each of them queue up again to pay. But if any staff notice this, can ask the family member that this is violating the policy so have to return the item. Not everyone will want to embarrass themself like that.

The place may not be big but there are not too many stocks. Mattel had more I think. But the good thing is, it is not hot and stuffy like Mattel or MPH, cos not indoors.

I can’t agree with Jean pertaining to the queing up for the Transformer a box per customer. Some may come in a big group of family and all queue up for the toy. There is really no control over this. It’s a matter of luck whether you get it or not and while stock last. That’s why they are selling them cheap. Isn’t it exciting where you can push and snatch [or rather "grab"]….(ha, ha, ha). But if you go on the last day, they may further reduce the price. Only that some toys may be sold out.

Is it true that at Mattel, they were throwing Fischer Price items to the crowd. I din know cos as usual, I don’t go earliest becos I don’t want to crowd. If only someone took a video of it, then hoo ha! (haha!) But I heard the Fisher Price finish in less than 15 min.

I think same thing here for Transformer la, and only in the Transformer section. But what to do, even after finish oredi, the ppl still wait to see if the staff will throw some more.

Maybe if the stock so limited and the item so coveted, can get the ppl to queue up where each family will only be given 1 box. That means there can only be 1 box of Transformer per payment.
