Toys R Us goes all out for Summer movie toys starting with Transformers: Age of Extinction

The mega-toy retailer is transforming into the headquarters for all the cool things associated with this Summer’s slate of blockbusters yet to come.

Transformers: Age of Extinction kicks off the fun at TRU with a selection of toys and digitally delivered content for kids and fans of all ages. Toys R Us is the only place where you’ll find the Grimlock Evolution 2-Pack too. This set contains the classic Dinobot leader in both his original form from the toys line of the 80s (but all spruced up for the modern collector) and the new design from the upcoming flick. Both figures in the set are fully posable and both transform from surly dino to surly autobot and back.

In addition to that, TRU will be giving away special digital content for the week leading up tot he film’s premier. Hit this link during that time to head to the special page for the promo, where you can “view videos featuring the top 10 moments of some of the franchise’s most popular characters, including Bumblebee, Optimus Prime and Grimlock.”

And if all that wasn’t enough for you, you’re in luck as there’ll be a special day in TRU stores on Saturday the 28th of June where you can grab yourself a free Kre-O Transformers figure, see a whole mess of brand new Transformers figures, and net a pretty fantastic discount on toys, games, and movies starring the big bots.
