If you check Amazon's top toys & games page today, you will see a couple of names atop the list that may seem out of place. Two Star Wars Transformers from 2008 currently occupy the top two spots for all toys and games sold on Amazon. Have these Hasbro hybrids had a sudden rush of popularity or is there something else at play?
As it turns out, for a very short period of time today, the Clone Pilot/Republic Gunship and Obi-Wan/Jedi Starfighter were selling for one dollar. This price was an error, however, and was quickly changed to the correct price; but not before several eagle-eyed shoppers swooped in and scooped up the mistakenly discounted figures.
Whether or not those who ordered at the errant price will receive their toys is still yet to be seen. For now, these normally overlooked figures will bask in the glory as top toys.
