I haven't seen tron and I don't think I would like it. I don't like this set either except for the white shiny one. I don't know why but I think he looks cute with that funny expression on his face. So I think I might get that one just because of it's "cuteness".

I love that this set is open box. Haven't seen the movie, but I'm still going to get a few. Thinking Clu for sure. Possibly the blue one, and maybe another.

They have been released in DLRP this week end and the price is 9.95€ so my guess is it will be $9.95 in the US......

Great news! Let's hope the pricing convention holds up! :cross:
This might be a dumb question, but for those who have seen them in person, do the boxes list the character names? Is the old-school one the young Kevin Flynn, or is it Tron?

Man that would be great if there are that price. I can't wait for 3/25 to drive up and get mine! Maybe I should head out now. LOL

Old school one is listed as Young Kevin Flynn. At least that what I found.

So my brother is going down to DLR March 28th and said he would pick these up for me. I'm kinda worried they will be out of stock though, or at least some will be. I know they will eventually re-stock, but I'm tired of waiting! How long do you guys think they will be around before some sell out? Will they even sell out? Will they make it the weekend? I really hope so. I want them sooo bad. :cry:

03-17-2011, 10:38 AM
I think they will sell online super quick, which is why i'm seriously debating staying up late to get them.

hm the faces not visible,
-sam flynn(son) is the black figure/blue accent w/ the light blue helmet face
-quorra(beautiful olivia wilde) is the black figure/blue accent w/ her shoulders showing
-clu(bad jeff bridges) is the black figure/yellow accent
-castor aka zuse(guy in club in daft punk scene) is the white/gray vinyl
-jarvis(clu's righthand man) is the one where both sides of his head is visible
-rinzler(the skilled warrior who uses 2 discs in the grid) is the black vinyl w/peach-orange like accents
i read somewhere that these will be $11.95 or so. . :( i'll still be getting them regardless lol

03-22-2011, 09:34 PM
I hope they're not the same price as the urbans... But, HOPING they come up to Canada and I'll definitely be picking up Sam Flynn if it does!! Although I can totally see myself buying more than Sam if I get to see them up close... Thank god for clear windows.

I am planning on going to the release in Anaheim. Can anyone tell me how early I should get there... is a sleeping bag required? Haha
Anybody know if the local stores will be getting these like NBX? I can (luckily) stay up tomorrow night, but would rather just swing by my store.
Definitely getting Clu and Rinzler.

i rly think you'll be okay at anytime on release day. this is an open edition series so there should be plenty to go around, i doubt you'll have trouble getting what you want. maybe certain characters would start to dwindle down after a while, but for the most part you'll be fine, imo of course.

Don't even go to that extreme for this set. I just spoke to a D-Street CM, he told me that they are going to have a lot of Tron. He said retail price at $9.95 each.

My enthusiasm is likewise dampened from where it would have been had these launched at the same time as the movie. At the very least, they should have been out before the completely inferior (and wildly overpriced) Noah Tron pieces. I actually wonder if these were held back after those limited editions basically flopped, Disney mistakenly thinking that the problem was the Tron brand as opposed to the price/quality.
I'm still interested in them, but I'm not going to rush out to pick any up. :shrug:

I agree with this. The Noah ones were so disappointing. I was thinking they would wait for the DVD release to generate hype there but I guess not since neither movie is out on DVD right now :/ (or if it is, I haven't been able to find them!)
I know I want the two versions of Kevin, Clu and Rinzler. Quorra, Sam and Jarvis are maybes. For some reason, Castor doesn't interest me at all.

The DVDs and Blu-rays for both Tron and Tron Legacy are coming out on April 5th, and the original Tron is finally available on cable - it was recently added to Showtime's programming. :thumbsup:

Hey Sasuke (Also other people wondering as well), I was just at Dstreet DLR (8:30 pm) and they still have everything in stock. When you first enter the shop there is a stand right in front of the door, you can't miss it. There are also shelves full of all the characters behind the check out registers. Sasuke to answer your question specifically I am not sure if they will last until next Thursday, but I wouldn't risk it. There is a steady flow of people buying them for themselves as well as for other people. One girl was buying them for her brother and asked me the names of the characters (since the boxes are not labeled). Good luck everyone!

I find it odd that DS.com would be sold out, especially when all the stores at the parks seem to be filled with them. Maybe I'm wrong, but I didn't think this set was in danger of selling out any time soon.

I'm hoping they get more online. It might be similiar to the nbc series. They were on ds.com and they didn't show up again for awhile, but they have been on there recently.
jaypee118
10-12-2011, 01:10 PM
is it safe to assume these aren't being produced anymore? I just need one more to complete my set and every time I go to DLR or browse ds.com, all I see is jarvis, both kevin Flynns, Zeus, and sometimes sam Flynn... never any rinzlers available :sigh:
it'd be disappointing if they've stopped producing these. it's just been a little over 6 months since the US release.
