With me acquiring my 3rd Alt/Binaltech from that "Mom-&-Pop" toy/bike store yesterday, I'm sure you guys have found TFs in unexpected stores like that before. :)

I can remember last Christmas period, I found a Hasbro reissue Astrotrain at a local Post Office for $25.

Electronics Boutique. Not talking a little figurine here, they had RiD Sky-Byte (:

Toyworld Warriewood got in a bunch of Micron Densetsu for some reason. Alongside their Armada toys!

I found Fort Max in on op shop in Nambour for $40, but every one is probably sick of me telling that story by now

Lets see...
The Artarmon Newsagency has Transformers Movie Target exclusive basics..

The Toy Shop at Milton on the NSW South Coast had (until very recently) BW Optimal Optimus, TM2 Megatron, Animorph figures. Some had been sitting on the shelves for nearly 10 years!

I do remember seeing European G1-G2 Transformers for sale in a Lighting Shop in Blacktown back in 1992...

I remember walking into a newsagency in either Queenstown or Zeehan on Tassie's west coast about 7 years ago, found some Fuzors sitting there. That was odd. Queeny and Zeehan are not high population areas by any means.

I must have missed this story. Was it complete?

Sorry for the double post.

I can remember someone saying they found a G1 Outback at an Op Shop one time & that we should definitely check out Op Shops for their TF Potential (that reminds me about one in 7 Hills I should take a look at).

I remember seeing heaps of G2 obliterators Pyros at a toy kingdom when it was during the beast wars series.

Didn't buy it back then

Bet you it's full of random happy Meal toys, and Pokemons!
