Toys R Us lists exclusive 12" Phasma!

I didn't even know this 12" Toys R Us Exclusive Phasma existed until my evening trip on Facebook.

"Launch into action and adventure in the world of Star Wars! Discover the exciting stories of good versus evil in a universe of heroes, villains, and aliens. Clad in distinctive metallic armor, Captain Phasma commands the First Order's legions of troopers. This 12-inch scale Captain Phasma figure features a shiny, metallic-looking finish and comes with a blaster accessory."

Keep this under your hat, but I just had to pre-order one of these for my daughter this morning for Christmas!

I have seen this go in and out of stock a few times this morning so be sure to refresh later if it says sold out.

Oh no, this is unavailable online, the most common response when you click on a item in their site.

Play Epic Battles to receive all of the medals between now and the 30th!

"Open to all ages. Parental supervision required at all times. For each battle activity, those who complete such battle activity are eligible to collect one medal per person in store anytime between 1/10/16- 1/30/16. Hoth, Endor, Yavin & Tatooine battles all open for play and redemption from 1/10/16- 1/30/16. Available only while supplies last. Quantities limited. No rain checks. Disney, Lucasfilm and Toys”R"Us employees and their families are ineligible. Disney, Lucasfilm and Toys"R"Us, Inc. reserve the right to end or modify this promotion at any time.

Now that is awesome. Now all I have to do is plan how to get to a Toys R Us. It stinks not living close to one I will tell you, especially when they do things like this. Thanks to a friend I have the Battle of Hoth Medal already and they are really nice folks.

There is no way I will be able to get to a Toys R Us to take part in this. If anyone has an extra person to print the certificates for and wouldn't mind assisting the ole Tamer I would be glad to pay someone for their trouble.

everyone see that Toys R Us filed for bankruptcy?

I also posted on the 6" Ackbar Set yesterday. At this point I think I am done with pre-orders from em and will only order if it says in stock. I don't think they are planning on quitting entirely, but I am guessing a major store shutdown and probably going to a lot of e-sales if I don't miss my guess.

[Clonehead]

I just heard yesterday that they were to quit entirely

I believe that their employees have two months but need to read more on it

I’ll miss going through there and catching their restocks of Star Wars and gi joe lines.
       I noticed that if I were to show up at opening time, there would be hotwheel collectors waiting at the door, nervously wondering if I was there to raid the diecast car isle that they were there to check.

I have raced collectors to the Star Wars isle come opening time before.

Trus biggest draw for me was all of the exclusive releases we have seen them distribute over the years.
Those I will certainly miss

[Clonehead]

They filed chapter 11 back in January, hoping to make it till this Christmas but while still losing money.
    They don't have the money to make it that long so they are closing up shop in two months, I believe.

Some stores had already been on the chopping block since January so their closings should happen earlier
    They had gotten themselves into debt for several years and last holiday season was rotten for them

A 1/4 Of the sales they expected and less than the previous year

Walmart and target and then finally, amazon are the cause of their sales decline

[Tamer]

Yeah, Its a shame. Once less place for us to get our chosen stuff.
