They really do not actually look at shipments marked to be put on shelves, they just do it.
there is only one problem with what u just said. They are not shipping out old stock of the earlier waves one, and 2 the ones they have out arent really selling. I know from experience since I am a manager at Toys R' Us there is something that always comes when this problem occures , and thats is numerous sales. I havent seen any promotions or sales until just last week and it wasnt a big sale at all to tell me they are trying to get rid of old stock. The sale was just buy any 2 beyblades and get one free and only my company had this sale , which isnt great because Toys R' Us is hella over priced lol. I believe it should be clear thier behavior is a lil odd and striking up some valid questions
TRU's shipping works a bit differently from Wal-Mart's, Target's, and K-Mart's - they all use different shipping companies and different rates. I have personally witnessed older items being put on shelves with newer ones being taken off and boxed for storage because the shipping label was a newer one.
Store to store things are pretty incongruous - my local TRU has that old exclusive 3 pack on the shelves for the first time since I got back into Beyblade (early last summer). Meanwhile, across the road, I found a Bakushin Susanow at Target along with many other "latest" releases. Similarly, a while back TRU had some launcher grips and beylaunchers, which are notoriously rare in stores (at this point) as far as I know. The most likely, based on that, is the idea posted here a few times that old stock is being pushed before the latest, rather than any shipping/production mishaps.
This Galaxy Pegasus giveaway is well-timed if that is in fact the case.

I completely understand what you're saying , but these store arent putting out any older stocks thier shelves are bare and if not bare they have tornado battlers and very very few old beys left
well it just got put up and they sell for a low price so thats why i put it up...
They're the exact same price as they would be at any retail store..

Really? My Walmart and TRU sells them for close to $11 WITHOUT tax, and my Target has them for almost $10 WITH tax. My local retailers must suck at pricing, haha.

I dunno how thats good since you cant even order it from them , and all of those except cyber aquario were released of october of last year. wave 15 has been out for a long enough now
Well it'll be coming, and my store didn't get these beys... so I just posted it just in case anyone else needed it. Sorry if I was not supposed to.
OMG IF YOU WATCH THE NEW THEME FOR METAL FURY YOU SEE BIG BANG PEGASIS!!! OMG!!!!!!!!
Its actually wierd because two days ago I went to my local Target and they had a few good Beys, including Ult. GD Attack Ver., Ult. Meteo L-Drago Assault(I think), Poison Zurafa(which I bought), Meteo L-Drago, A few Ray Gils, and a Hades Kerbecs. It also had the two Beyblade team packs.

So that recolour of Galaxy Pegasis is for 8-17 year-olds ? What ?
Wait, nobody outside of the United States can participate ? Go to hell.
Galaxy Pegasis Black Hole Ver. ("Black Sun Galaxy Pegasus") is estimated at a value of only $4,99 hah ?
Also, limit of five requests per address.
Sorry to quote a older post. Trying to cacth up on the news about Black Sun Galaxy Pegasus
3 beys between now and the end of April for the rare Black Hole Pegasus? EASY WIN
Im 17. Guess I make the cut 0_o
Dont worry Kai-V, when I get 5 of these (the apparent limit per household) and wait utill the contest is over, I will re-sell 4 of them at ridiculously high prices for your convinience
But you know that, to get five Galaxy "Pegasus", you would need to buy fifteen Beyblades before the end of April ?
Apperently YTV is having a contest where you can win 1 out of 100 Black Sun Galaxy Pegasus's. We have got a chance of getting it... IN CANADA :3
Unfortunately though, from what I understand, its probably a lucky draw system for the YTV contest...
The one in the US was an assured gift for buying three beys, so its not as sweet as the US scenario...
Still, its certainly worth the try for you all!

You need to buy an XTS Stealth Battler top ... Why can we not at least be asked to purchase real Beyblades, five if they want, and necessarily get that "Black Sun Galaxy Pegasus" until supplies last, like in the United States ...
Still, we should all enter and SPAM them about our "home tournaments" at the World Beyblade Organization ... Apparently Hasbro Canada did not know about us until a few weeks ago ...
Still, that shows that those BeyWheelz and other side products will be available this April. That page is not completely useless ...
Oh, the XTS thing again...
Even the Cartoon Network SweepStakes thingy gave out the XTS beys as prizes...
At least you all have an opportunity...
Still, that's a bad thing! Hasbro should have kept things similar for the US and Canada...
On a side note, Destroyer Dome?! What in the world is that? I might have missed info about it (if it was given out here before), hence the late reaction (forgive me for it)...
Don't tell me its a stadium....
EDIT- Oh wow, they have also given the approximate retail value of that thing, which many ebay sellers might look to follow... That thing is never going for a cheap price, then...
Yes, that fish bowl is a new stadium by Hasbro. We did discuss it quite a few pages ago.
For a shortcut, you should be able to find the exact posts on our Facebook Page.

Desperate attempt to sell poorly-thought-out spin off line: The Contest.
