2012 Transformers Toy Checklist for Australia

[griffin]

This checklist aims to cover everything being released by Hasbro America (which we get here), Hasbro Asia (we sometimes get here), as well as the most notable or unique TakaraTomy toys (maybe one item here per year).

The current release status for Australia will be noted as often as possible.
Previous Archive Checklists:
2011 Movie toys (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=10945)
2011 Non-Movie toys (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=10314)

1996-2008 (http://www.otca.com.au/checklist.html)

Items will be added to the checklist when officially revealed by Hasbro, or official pics of the toys, or in-package images verify its existence.
Posting of corrections or additions of Confirmed information is welcome.

Release dates are when items are expected to be widely available in America, and should only be used as a guide for Australia (usually within a month or two if released here at all). All future dates and details can change at any time (they changed a few between Toyfair and BotCon).

US prices are before tax (usually about 8%)
AU prices are full retail (includes 10% tax)

Key:
HERE = Release date at a major chain in Australia.
OUT = Release date in US or globally (not yet found here if not mentioned as "HERE").
NOT HERE = Released in other countries, but not expected here.

[theheretic]

Hmmm, there really isn't much on this list that's interesting me besides the Generations figures. I hope Has/Tak have more in store for this year.

[swoop]

I'm confused about this

Deluxe
- - Wave 6 (CANCELLED)
Soundwave (grey, new - Decep) (in Japan & Asia only)
Wheeljack (blue, new - Auto) (in Japan only)
Evac (blue car, new - Auto) (in Asia only)
- - Wave 7 (CANCELLED)
Soundwave (black redeco - Decep) (in Asia only)
Wheeljack (white redeco - Auto) (in Asia only)
Bumblebee (minor redeco - Auto) (in Asia only)

Were these planned for asia only and were then cancelled or are they just cancelled in america and are expected in asia?

[Hursticon]

Were these planned for asia only and were then cancelled or are they just cancelled in america and are expected in asia?

To my understanding it's just the Western Markets that have had them be cancelled, though that Wave 7 assortment is completely news to me in regards to it's sheer existence. :eek::confused:

[swoop]

I've heard about the soundwave and wheeljack recolour but just assumed that they were cancelled along with wave six. I didn't know that they would still be released in asia

[griffin]

As Hursticon was guessing, the US Toyfair Media Event (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=12962) reported that those remaining DotM toys were not going to be released in America, but would be in "Movie Trilogy" packaging for the Asian Hasbro markets.
But as with everything unreleased, things can change at any time.

I'll reword that to be future-tense, so that it isn't as confusing. I also added them into the Hasbro Asia Section as well. (including the Ratchet redeco that I forgot before)

And Hursticon, that 7th Wave was announced at NYCC (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=12639), but that was a while ago now, so easily forgotten (for just being a redeco wave).

Ah!, so it was; man time can do silly things to one's memory when trying to following a hobby like collecting Transformers and keeping up with all the world's releases. :p:cool:
Cheers for the clarification dude. :)

[griffin]

That's why I'm here... to keep up with all the info for you guys to not need to. :p

[theheretic]

Thanks mate. It's so handy having a list like this! I used it heaps last year and probably will be again this year.

[griffin]

Indeed. I print it out each year and take it with me everywhere, because there's nothing like it on any other site... and the more dedicated collectors need to know what is out, what is coming, what they've missed, and what they want need to save for.

[Doubledealer]

Very handy indeed! My favourite part has to be:

Transformers Prime
- - (March)
AM-04 Ratchet (+ Micron)
AM-05 Megatron (+ Micron)
AM-06 Skywarp (+ Micron)

Ohhh yeeaaah, roll on March. :D

[griffin]

Updated with Singapore Convention info, and other recent news items.

[griffin]

Updated checklist with links to image files of most of the toys (acquired, edited and uploaded over the last couple months - which is a time consuming task), using official pics where ever possible.

People can use the images for reference in posts, or when starting a toy review.

[griffin]

Updated the Checklist with the new figures revealed in recent Asian catalogue scans:

TFPrime Deluxe
Dead End (redeco Wheeljack w new head - Decep?)
Shadow Strike Bumblebee (redeco Bumblebee? - Auto)
Airracchnid (new - Decep)

TFPrime Legion
Wheeljack (redeco w/ new weapon - Auto)
Quickblade Bumblebee (black redeco w/ new weapon - Auto)
Flamewar (redeco Arcee w/ new weapon - Decep)

TFPrime Commander
Ultra Magnus (new - Auto)
Optimus Prime (redeco w/ new weapons - Auto)


Plus updated the TFPrime 2-pack (the second one, which we got here).

[ITZTRU]

I may have missed it, but looking at that list, does that mean we're not getting an RiD deluxe starscream, painted in normal colors thats not together with bumblebee?

[griffin]

No. We haven't heard yet if they will have a Deluxe Starscream in the regular RID series, so the only ones currently known are the Cmdr and Voyager versions.

And we aren't expecting to get any of the First Edition figures here (of which that existing DLX Starscream was a part of). If fans keep demanding Hasbro to re-release the FE figures, like as a store/website exclusive, we might see them in some way in the future, but at this stage, the 2-pack is the only DLX Starscream released here. (which he needs to be, to be in scale to Voyager Megatron)

[ITZTRU]

I don't mind if they release a new ss or keep the fe, either way, I just want a dlx to, as you mentioned before, keep in scale with Voyager Megatron. Shame about the colors. Thanks for the reply griff

[Alpha Supreme]

Great Griffin!!! Thank you heaps!!! Any sign of Thundercats in Australia?

[kristofferrer]

is this starscream different to the one released in the bee and scream 2 pack with the MECH men?

[KalEl]

is this starscream different to the one released in the bee and scream 2 pack with the MECH men?

the dlx ss is painted different in the two pack opposed to the fe one

[kristofferrer]

the dlx ss is painted different in the two pack opposed to the fe one

but that's the FE mold?

[griffin]

Yes. There is only one SS DLX mould that we know of.

[KalEl]

Yes. There is only one SS DLX mould that we know of.

Updated now with all pre-BotCon info that I'm aware of (and release statuses).
Next week could see a major update.

[griffin]

Updated with anything revealed at BotCon (which wasn't too much this year).

I'll update JP items, and anything else revealed in the news section later.

[griffin]

That should cover all the non-BotCon news items now, except the single-pack JP Microns, as I'm waiting for their release to know exactly what is in it... there are a lot of Micron moulds and redecos floating around lately, I've lost track of them all. (having unique JP names doesn't help either)

[kreh80]

I love the look of that Japan Exclusive Black Jetwing Optimus Prime. What do you have to do to get one???. Does anyone know.

Thanks for any info.

[griffin]

Updated with recent releases here and new JP items.

[griffin]

Added in more JP stuff (Prime & Microns), and split up the checklist into two parts (because it was just getting way too big to be in one posting now).

Also added in links to previous checklists, for reference.

[griffin]

Updated with SDCC info and JP releases, as well as added links to more images. (I still have more image links to add)

[griffin]

Major update of the checklist, mostly release dates, JP items and release status updates. I haven't added the NYCC items yet, as they are 2013 items. This one is already starting to bleed over into 2013, so I'm going to have to start up a new checklist soon and transfer those items across (with all the NYCC items).

Kre-O
- - Series 2 (Sept 2012) (7 new sets, 29 new Kreons) OUT JUL/AUG

Destruction Site Devastator (Devastator OR 4 Constructicons - Scrapper (yellow Earthmover), Drillbit (orange drill), Hightower (red wrecking-ball), Scavenger (green bulldozer)) 560 pieces & 6 Kreons (Devastator, Construction Foreman, 3 Construction Workers, Ironhide)
Battle For Energon (Optimus Vs Megatron) 379 pieces & 4 Kreons (Optimus, Megatron, Security Officer, Tank Driver)
Street Showdown (Knock Out Vs Wheeljack) 273 pieces & 4 Kreons (Wheeljack, Knock Out, 2x Drivers)

Cycle Chase (4 Kreons - Barricade, 3x Autobot Troopers - plus motorcycle) 77 pieces

Do you know if we will actually get these? I have been bitten by the Kreon bug and I really wanna get these. I am about to order 2 of the sets, but just wanna see if I should track down the rest or wait for them to come out here.

With how much the first lot of Kreo shelfwarmed, I am not holding my breath.

[griffin]

Probably not... after the failure of the first series here. And I think that if we were to get the second series here, we probably should have seen them by now, as they were released in America in July.

If they do come out here, it might be mid next year when the Star Trek Kreo is launched... as a running mate to pad out the concept to retailers.

[Gouki]

Just noticed the FOC Soundwave/Soundblaster and data disks haven't been updated. I just feel it's pertinent as it's nice for us to get things first once in a while lol

[jaydisc]

Is this maintained? I've seen Prime Voyager Bulkhead in the shops (not 1st Ed)

[Paulbot]

It says:

- - Wave 2 (April/May) HERE JUNE (US APR)
Bulkhead V2 (new - Auto)
Starscream (new - Decep)
I checked this list the other day when I saw the two at Kmart as I didn't remember seeing them before.

[griffin]

I updated the checklist when I started up the 2013 checklist a couple weeks back, but still need to keep an eye on it if any other 2012 items show up here later.
I also need to add in more image links.

[JuzMel]

It says:
- - Wave 2 (April/May) HERE JUNE (US APR)
Bulkhead V2 (new - Auto)
Starscream (new - Decep)

I checked this list the other day when I saw the two at Kmart as I didn't remember seeing them before.
Any others that you have seen Paulbot? I'm still collecting TF Prime figures. Would have liked Starscream.
