Class II Vehicles at Toys”R”us
The 2013 shrunken down “mid-sized” vehicles have begun to show up at Toys”R”us stores and I came across them today in the St. Louis area. They are priced at $21.99.
Not a bad price, but personally it’s hard to get excited by smaller versions of vehicles that we already have… I’d like for Hasbro to realize that much of the problem with the 2012 mid-sized vehicle failure wasn’t the price, it was that everyone already had the vehicles they were trying to push… but enough of the rant, good luck on those toy runs if you’re looking for these!

Buy 1 Get 1 50% off at TRU
Toys”R”Us is running another BOGO 50% off sale this week, which is a good buy if you can score TVC figures at this price. Especially since they are the only retailer from my experience over the past year that has consistently stocked figures (sales like this will help do that!).
