July 27, 2009 - Hasbro's exclusive items from the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con International are now available on their Hasbro Toy Shop web site.

Don't forget your coupon codes! Here are a few that might come in handy - thanks to PastePotPete, JediJones, and Joker for posting these on the ToyBuzz forum!

  • GIJOE10 - good for 10% off your GI Joe purchase
  • THANKS10 - good for 10% off your entire order
  • BKTF09 - free shipping on Transformers

There are also other coupons listed on the RetailMeNot web site, so be sure to take a look and decide which coupon will work out best on this particular purchase for you. (For example, in our case, we weren't ordering any Transformers, so we used the THANKS10 code.)
