Huge ToysRUs 30% Off Sale Starts Tomorrow

Our friends at Jedi Temple Archives are reporting that tomorrow kicks off a HUGE Sale Event at Toys”R”Us with 30% off ALL Star Wars merchandise, plus freebies! For the complete details, head on over to JTA!

UPDATE: Apparently “ALL” Star Wars on Sale for 30% off was a slight misrepresentation of the facts despite what their print ad states. Toys”R”Us is offering varying degrees of discounts depending on the license and product type so be sure to check those shelf tags and price scanners for the actual prices.

Droid Attack on the Coronet Hits TRU

Forum member combatJedi reports finding the new exclusive Droid Attack on the Coronet Battle Pack at a Toys”R”Us just yesterday – so might be a good idea to swing on by your local store to see if they have this in stock yet ($24.99).  Hopefully this set goes over well and gets Hasbro to make a new OT Probe Droid set as well (who doesn’t want that anyway?)!

Note – some of the latest Clone Wars figures have been sighted at Toys”R”Us this week as well via pallet displays in front of the Star Wars promo sections at the front of the store (Savage Opress, Seripas, Saesee Tiin)… as always, your mileage may vary.

Good luck!

Toyguide Update: Stealth Ops Clone Trooper (TRU Exclusive)

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with the addition of the Toys”R”Us Exclusive Stealth Operations Clone Trooper from The Clone Wars Collection.

PROS: Nice, crisp deco on the helmet and shoulder bells, even the soles of the boots are painted. For an exclusive, the price is comparable to the standard basic figure price. (Even cheaper if purchased during the current 2 for $10.99 promotion.)

CONS: Should have been designated as “Blackout” as identified by LFL and The Clone Wars Episode Guide. A bit light on accessories for a clone and maybe under articulated for some collectors as it uses the divisive “Stone” body.

Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.

You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on facebook and in our forums.

UPDATE: Toys”R”Us Sale – 2/$10.99

You’ll want to make sure that Toys”R”Us is on your list of retail stops this week, as they are running another of their 2/$10.99 sales on basic Hasbro figures – Star Wars, GI Joe, and other Hasbro brands are included – and for once, the Vintage figures are included as well!  Good luck on those toy runs, with these prices it’s a good excuse to add a couple more army builders, stock up for customs, etc… and as a reminder, Wal-Mart is usually pretty good about matching competitor prices if you bring an ad in with you!

UPDATE: Although some stores may honor the promotion on the Vintage Collection, not all stores do, nor does the ToysRUs.com website.
