Tried single items and got this message:
Some of the items in your order cannot be shipped to the selected address. Please select a new address to see your estimated order total.
Poor form Amazon :mad:

It appears that both Amazon and TRU US have blocked the shipping of toys abroad.
Tried shipping my items to a friend's address in Asia as they'd rejected shipping to Australia... But even that doesn't work.
This really sucks :mad:

On the upside, perhaps we could try one of the reshipping services, like Borderlinx?
http://www.borderlinx.com/AU/en/
That's a dodgy reshipper dude... check their feedback online on various forums... heaps of disgruntled customers.
Over charging plus losing (some say stealing) of customers' items.

Well, this is very disappointing... I was just about to order some stuff. I received a shipment from Amazon on Wednesday. Even one of the items I received is now showing as 'Problem with order' in the shipping/checkout area. Re Lego from Amazon. Some Lego sets are restricted at times and at other times are available for shipping to Australia. I hope the blanket ban is a glitch. Will they still export blankets, I wonder. :confused:

I'm thinking I might just cancel my order (got the same email) and reorder the book that's in the same bundle separately. Wanted to get Slog at the time but not totally convinced anymore.

Those are automated emails they send out when items are had a long pre-order period. I got them for other lengthy pre-orders, and when the release date changes.
It doesn't yet mean that they aren't shipping them.

You can still order off Amazon., i managed to get through to the checkout stage last night.
Eg: the $16.99 Drift Voyager sold and shipped by Amazon won't ship, but under the price there's the "16 new offers from $xx.xx " option. Click on that & look for a sellers item that is fulfilled by Amazon. They're a bit more expensive & you may have to try a few different sellers, but you can still have them shipped provided you can find the right option.
My dummy cart ended up with AoE Drift Voyager for $25, Star Wars Black Label Jabba for $37 & a WWE figure all available to me :)

I had time to kill at work, so checked a lot of Hasbro items
They all shipped to my address and were Global Eligible according to the settings BUT if you scroll down the page it clearly says it will only ship to the USA.
It was good while it lasted, so as long as Hasbro USA does not stop a store like BBTS from shipping internationally then I still have options.

YES! :D
I placed an order as well, and it worked.
(I'm also finding that it has been giving me three postage options now, when it used to only have the one before... so postage can now be even cheaper for me, and it was dirt-cheap before).
In honour of the re-opened access to Amazon, these are some new and/or interesting items from Amazon that I found today.
Generations Windblade (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Generations-Deluxe-Windblade-Figure/dp/B00JMJS4N0/ref=sr_1_21?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1415165582&sr=1-21&keywords=transformers) - $17

(these are wave 3, which I recently ranted about missing at BBTS by seconds... so am very happy to get a second shot at them)
TF4 Voyager Drift (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Extinction-Generations-Voyager-Autobot/dp/B00I0NIAII/ref=sr_1_56?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1415165834&sr=1-56&keywords=transformers) - still at the wrong price of $17

New Aquarius Gen1 Lunchbox (http://www.amazon.com/Aquarius-Transformers-Autobots-Decepticons-Lunch/dp/B00M35PAXW/ref=sr_1_32?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1415165742&sr=1-32&keywords=transformers) - $13
This one has Autobots & Decepticons on it, while their previous two were of each allegiance. (all three are still in stock... but be aware that these are easily crushed, so be careful what you order with it, if you want any of them)
Enjoy. :D

Yep that's a KO of Alternator Hound complete with the blurb from another toy "Convert your mighty Bumblebee figure from Jeep"?
Edit: looking at their store they've got KO versions of Alternators Smokescreen and a Barricade-coloured Sunstreaker too. And all of them have pretty much the same write up.

The last of the TF4 movie One-Steps are now on Amazon.
Megatron - $11 (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Extinction-Megatron-One-Step-Changer/dp/B00L5KI81M/ref=sr_1_1?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1416100478&sr=1-1&keywords=transformers)
Rollbar - $11 (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Extinction-Rollbar-One-Step-Changer/dp/B00L5KI7RW/ref=sr_1_2?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1416100478&sr=1-2&keywords=transformers)
Strafe - $11 (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Extinction-Strafe-One-Step-Changer/dp/B00L5KI7TA/ref=sr_1_4?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1416100478&sr=1-4&keywords=transformers)
Prowl - $11 (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Extinction-One-Step-Changer-Figure/dp/B00L5KI7Z4/ref=sr_1_3?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1416100478&sr=1-3&keywords=transformers)
That doesn't leave much left now from the Movie toys to be released here or in America. The final wave of Power Battlers (Junkheap, Vehicon, HO Bumblebee) and final wave of Construct-Bots Riders (Starscream, Galvatron) looks to be all that is left to be released somewhere in the world.
The Gen1 mini-titans (four of the five from SDCC) showed up on Amazon in the last week, but three have already sold out.
Optimus is still available for US$10 (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Prime-Warrior-Optimus-Figure/dp/B00I0NIBDM/ref=sr_1_18?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1416100478&sr=1-18&keywords=transformers), but only two units at this time.
The other three (Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave) can still be found on Amazon, but by other sellers, so if you are desperate to pay a little more, you might find someone who can sell to non-Americans.
Also, Leader Class Jetfire (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Generations-Leader-Jetfire-Figure/dp/B00IJZFQGG/ref=sr_1_62?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1416101310&sr=1-62&keywords=transformers) is on special at the moment, for US$38.76 (from $45).
And for anyone struggling to find a Deaths Head (http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00I0NI92A/ref=dp_olp_new_mbc?ie=UTF8&condition=new), I bought one from one of the sellers on Amazon that is "fulfilled by Amazon", for US$18.50, but you might be able to find one for less as there are some cheaper ones now listed.

Generations Chromia is in stock at Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MCVQEDC/) for their usual US$17, but not Arcee for some strange reason.
And just as strange, Chromia is saying "item does not ship to Australia", so maybe the glitch is back.
The final wave of Movie Deluxes are in stock now as well, but they do say they can ship to Australia. Each is the usual $17 as well.

Amazon has just put up in-stock RID items. So far just the four Legions (selling fast) and the 3-step changers (which BBTS doesn't look like stocking).
Legion Strongarm (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Robots-Disguise-Legion-Strongarm/dp/B00LXCKU4U/ref=sr_1_1?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1418134309&sr=1-1&keywords=transformers&pebp=1418134454245) - $9

3-step Grimlock (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Robots-Disguise-Changers-Grimlock/dp/B00LXCKNOC/ref=sr_1_5?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1418134309&sr=1-5&keywords=transformers) - $22
3-step Bumblebee (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Robots-Disguise-Changers-Bumblebee/dp/B00LXCKO1Y/ref=sr_1_6?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1418134309&sr=1-6&keywords=transformers) - $22
Generations Chromia (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Generations-Deluxe-Chromia-Figure/dp/B00MCVQEDC/ref=sr_1_12?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1418134309&sr=1-12&keywords=transformers) is now shippable to Australia (when I posted it a few days ago, it was not available).
I almost ordered the Legions, but the four would cost US$36, while the set of four on BBTS is only US$27. Even though it was more, I still thought about buying them to have some of the first RID toys in this country (before Christmas), but decided to just get the two 3-Step toys instead (with a couple other items I wanted).
If you are desperate to get the Legions before anyone else in Australia, act fast as some are almost sold out already.

Are Amazon allowing shipping to Australia now for the majority of Hasbro Transformer items?
I got through to the review page, but didn't want to make an order on the off chance it would get cancelled - when did they stop preventing shipping?
Krayt
20th December 2014, 12:21 PM
It's more like they throw up the listing simply, then go back a few days later and tick the international box.... If a TF says no to here it shows up on the product page, so you see before you get through the checkout. No fear of cancelling after you order
griffin
20th December 2014, 02:15 PM
Yep, I don't think they've cancelled order that was able to complete checkout. If it is a restricted item, it won't go through checkout.
(not sure about pre-orders though... if they change the status to restricted before it is released, it is possible that they don't send it and would refund your money)

Hey Griffin, are you suggesting all these items will be available outside USA in the near future? I'll hold off if that's the case ... if it doesn't sell out first.
Recently, they seem to be US only and then change later, either due to someone pointing them out to be "fixed", or they are giving Americans first bite before opening it up to the rest of the world.
Some are selling out fast, so if they do get fixed, a number might be sold out by then.
(but I think they'd get a restock before wave two... or be re-released in a later wave)

it's an OK toy, the legs are joined through the hip though so if you don't hold one while you move the other they'll move together relative to the body. I found this rather frustrating. the plastic colours are better than the general release version but that's about it.

Maybe it was a third-party seller, or it was not registering at the time you were ordering it, but I had a look and I didn't get any problems (I didn't complete the transaction though).
It looks like it is stock by Amazon now, and not just limited stock either.
It's regularly at US$47, but when I looked it was currently price-matching one of its third-party sellers, for $43.

It is strange that Amazon haven't been selling any of the other Platinum sets (yet... unless they were already sold out), but that's okay for me, as this was the one I would be buying for being a redeco.
That and the Dinobots, as I'd look at replacing some of my old ones if they are identical.

What Paulbot said, plus, you can refine your search on only include items that ship to Australia but that may knock out a few things. When you click into the item, try searching using other shops/sellers; some of those might be able to ship to Aus instead and may be cheaper depending on condition etc. Last step in checkout is to verify if it DOES ship to Aus; if not just remove it and try another seller.

The same item works on a friend's account but doesn't work for me. :(

when you have the different seller options up for inspection you can pick the international shippers by the shipping conditions listed for that seller. some say just domestic and others link to international shipping terms as well.

This will be moved and merged with the existing Amazon topic later today (or when it sells out)... I just wanted to make it known that this rare and hard-to-find toy is currently in-stock at Amazon for US$11 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NYSR5SK/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER)... and it isn't looking good that it will show up here. Considering Legends are about AU$19-20 here, if it does end up coming to Australia, at least this one wouldn't cost more than that.
Now, it isn't worth getting on its own, unless you are doing a group buy of several of them for a few people... so check out the other available items for Transformers to see if anything new is available that you want (http://www.amazon.com/gp/search/ref=sr_il_ti_toys-and-games?fst=as%3Aoff&rh=n%3A165793011%2Ck%3Atransformers%2Cp_n_shipping _option-bin%3A3242350011%2Cp_6%3AATVPDKIKX0DER&sort=date-desc-rank&keywords=transformers&ie=UTF8&qid=1438743624&lo=toys-and-games) (if that link doesn't work, search for "Transformers" in toys (http://www.amazon.com/ref=nav_logo), click on "sold by Amazon" on the left column, and select "sort by newest arrival" in the drop-down box on the top right).
Some recent and rare items you could pair up with Viper to make shipping worth it...
GEN Legends Groove (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Generations-Combiner-Legends-Protectobot/dp/B00NYSQS10/ref=pd_sim_21_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=0E8XAG0FPBRVWWNGRJE0) - currently on sale for US$10

(sale prices can be temporary, and may not be there when you see this)
Make sure items are "sold" or "fulfilled" by Amazon for the order to work, or have less issues.
Just keep in mind the current exchange rate, as Amazon shipping and prices are generally pretty good, but the exchange rate is eating into that "better than Australian prices" margin.

I thought that Amazon USA didn't ship toys to AU anymore. :confused: Unfortunately there's nothing else that I can find there that I'd want anyway, so postage of the toy on its own wouldn't be worth it.

5th August 2015, 10:32 PM
Viper's rare?
Yes.... but not necessarily in high demand.
It looks like we missed wave 3 here (its case-mates Warpath and Groove showed up with Wave 4), and Viper looks to only be in Wave 3 because it isn't a major character that is just a redeco.
For me though, if you are getting all the toys who combine, Viper is part of Galvatronus, and is the only toy which has the image of a Galvatronus toy on the packaging (Cyclonus doesn't, and there are no dedicated Deluxes).

Wave 4 Combiner Legends and Deluxes are now on Amazon, with a release date of August 9th, so they must already have them, but will take a couple days to be ready to ship out to people.
I was able to cart and check-out the items, so they are all available to Australia.

I'm signed into my Amazon account with my Australian address account and browsing ths site, adding stuff to my cart, going to the check out to see a total price with shipping.
So on any of those screens am I looking at AUD prices? Or am i seeing USD prices?
The checkout screen says both "Amazon Currency Converter is Disabled" and "Change card currency from AUD" so I'm not sure which currency I'm seeing. And wether I need to apply a USD dollar conversion?
I've not ordered anything through Amazon recently enough for the transactions to be seen on my netbanking so I can't check one to compare.
This feels like a stupid question but after looking through their help and a bit of googling I can't get a straight answer. :o
EDIT
Ok I've done something and I get a AUD price now listed and can switch between the two on the final checkout page. I think this may be something to do with preorders vs ordering stuff in stock? Feeling more comfortable now (although that exchange rate!)
griffin
15th August 2015, 12:19 AM
Everything is in US$ until the checkout screen, which has the option of paying in AU$ or US$. (there is a link on the right somewhere to switch currencies... but everything before that is US$ by default)
griffin
19th August 2015, 08:17 PM
You get what you pay for, so I'm never upset with the way Amazon packs their shipments, because they don't charge much with shipping... and apparently don't pay their workers much.
As such, I'm still happy with this (compared to Australian pricing), and I generally recommend Amazon for those people who don't keep packaging... and tell people who want Mint Sealed items to shop elsewhere that charges more to cover the extra cost of padding.
I also don't make a fuss about it to Amazon, as they'd end up charging more for shipping if they were forced to start putting more time and padding into their shipments.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/blog/c908.jpg
That's exactly what it looked like when I opened the box. I haven't touched anything yet.
I actually opened up the bottom of the box, so there is some bubble-wrap underneath the toys, which is usually just thrown in at the end before taping up the box.... but not enough padding to stop things moving around inside the empty space left in the box.

Sometimes I wonder. Sure this might be fine with their fast internal postage but sending things overseas you'd think a little more care might be considered.
I have the same feeling, but after seeing on American TV news in the last few days of the "assembly line" working conditions, if Amazon charged more for better packing, I would only be comfortable if it was passed onto the workers. Because they would be the ones who would be required to spend the extra time on carefully packing items... and it wouldn't be fair on them if they are expected to maintain the same quota at the same pay just so we get toys arriving in Mint condition.

And while you are there, check out the the other GEN toys, as everything but Leader Starscream appears to be in stock now... including Battle Core Optimus US$25 (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Generations-Combiner-Voyager-Optimus/dp/B00WO0B1VG/ref=pd_sim_21_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1YYTYQXC1XGAP70P6BSA&dpID=51iD2zcbY3L&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_) (for those like me who are still waiting for it to drop into the BBTS POL with the rest of Wave 4... it's possible to ship your POL and order Optimus and a few others from Amazon to complete your Generations 2015 collection).
Even Leader Armada Megatron is US$28 (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Generations-Leader-Armada-Megatron/dp/B00ND603Z0/ref=pd_sim_21_27?ie=UTF8&refRID=1D5HXHA0MMQKTAR89R4H), so pop that in your cart as well if you don't have it, as it is a great toy to have, even if you already have the Gen1/silver version. It can go with all the other Armada Generations toys coming out now (Starscream, Skywarp, Ramjet, Thundercracker, and the rumoured Demolishor).

Wasn't Ramjet from Armada the miniCon partner to Tidal Wave? I thought the Ramjet that used Armada Skywarps mold was from Universe. :confused:
griffin
29th September 2015, 02:43 PM
Yes, the Minicon jet with Tidal wave was Ramjet, but the bigger Ramjet (redeco of Skywarp), came out in Universe packaging, and FunPub wrote
as being from the dead universe in their comic. (so I guess technically, this Ramjet is part of the Universe universe and not the Armada universe)
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/blog/c979.jpg
Hasbro have so far released (white) Starscream in Generations in 2014.
Takaratomy are releasing Thundercracker in Legends in 2016.

That Amazon exclusive TF4 Slog (http://amzn.com/B00I0NIAIS) (Sludge) to go with the SDCC Dinobots set, discounted down to US$9.30... a huge mark down from its original US$35.
Leader Thundercracke (http://amzn.com/B00ND603PK)r is now even cheaper (than three posts above), at US$25.50 now.
And GEN-14 Roadbuster (http://amzn.com/B00E4FNWS4) (Voyager) is currently half price at US$12.50.
So much for the weaker AU$... at these prices, who cares.
Something that isn't toy related is the recent combined Allspark Almanac book (http://amzn.com/1631402102), at a third off at US$27.

If I had any form of Trypticon I'd go with unite warriors Defensor myself. but I particularly enjoy the new.
If I'd been hanging out for an affordable Trypticon for years ( which I personally haven't) I might go for that. It is pretty cool especially given the age of the design but it is still a G1 toy with little or no articulation. In fact due to the mechanised walking neither the arms or legs are pose able.

A restock of wave 1 Titans Return items were just added, and some are already out of stock, and some are not available to non-Americans (Rewind and Stripes are, but Wheelie isn't, what the???).
Those like me who were waiting for CW Gen2 Bruticus to come back into stock, it is, but at the full price of US$100 (https://amzn.com/B01ALRB1HW). Still better than the TRU Australia price. (if it stays around for a few months on Amazon like Superion, it might get discounted)
And, YOTG Optimus Primal (https://amzn.com/B011MIX0YQ) is now down to US$60 from US$95... which is time for me to finally get it - it could go cheaper, but I don't want to risk it.

The ones left in stock are not sold by Amazon, so it is up to the 3rd party dealers to offer international shipping on their items. The cheapest one is not available to non-Americans, but some of the others in the full listing (sorted by price) might be.

Just noting this here as well... the Velocitron set has just popped up on Amazon (http://a.co/061KqFi) (sold by Amazon) for US$100 plus US$25 for shipping (for one).
I ordered two (one for me and one for a friend) and it came to AU$338... which is AU$170 each (the same price as in HK without shipping), and 15% less than the price it would be in Australia if ToysRUs ends up selling it here.
This unexpected, as it is supposed to be a TRU exclusive in America like everywhere else, so Amazon shouldn't be able to sell it.
It doesn't get released until June 17th (3 days time), so it will be interesting to see what happens on that date. (at least with Amazon it's not too much to worry about, because if it was a mistaken listing, or it wasn't meant to be available to export, they will refund the money quickly and easily)

I got an email this morning to say that my pair had just shipped, so the alert you heard about might have been a couple extras they got in with their shipment... or the Americans watching the listing jumped on it fast.

Just be aware that shipping will make it really expensive, but in case we don't get it here, it could be one option if you can't find it at any other source for less (I haven't looked around, so other places might have it in stock).

The first wave of Studio Series are/were on there last night, but shipping and exchange rate will only save you money if they never go on sale here... which they will eventually, or will have a percentage-off sale at some point at the usual outlets.
If you want to get them now and save a little over full retail here, get them from Amazon... but if you are willing to wait for a cheaper sale price here, don't shop there.
(also, most of wave 2 of POTP has been restocked on Amazon in the last couple of weeks, but some prices are way over US retail from Amazon themselves... like the Legends class - one is $11, but two are $16 each - almost like they are pricing them based on their demand or short-packing)

If anyone is after a TR Shuffler without paying extortionist pricing on ebay, Amazon has him as an "add on item" from $7.50 USD. That means you need to buy $25 worth of other stuff and then you can add him onto your order for $7.50.
I bought him recently and it hardly affected my shipping cost to add him to an order of a HDMI cable and USB hub.

With the new GST laws being effective 1 July this year, Amazon is now going to redirect all Australian customers to the Amazon Au website (and probably prevent you from checking out if you tried to buy on the US website with an Australian address).
As a compromise, it will expand the range on the Au website to include some US items. Unfortunately, we won't get the same range and prices will probably be worse than if you bought directly from the US site in the past.

This is a major reason that these new laws are such a kick in the teeth to rural customers :mad:.

Instead of lobbying the government these dinosaurs should pay attention and change their business model if they want to remain competitive. They may even find that by attracting more customers, including international, to a well organised and maintained website the additional cash would help to subsidise their brick and mortar stores. Then they get the best of both worlds and increase their customer base.

And guess who's doing the rounds on news sites... moaning about amazon having an advantage, but he misses the point that it's only if the item is available in this country. The ABC news presenter pushed him (Gerry Harvey) on if he will be making his prices more competitive but he wouldn't answer it, wanting to talk about tax instead.
Lowered prices or not, I'm not gonna buy anything from his range of stores... that's for sure.
He can kiss my XXXX
We've taken steps backwards as a country.
Rather than adapt and think of innovative ways to boost sales, they block the competition completely... giving the consumers here significantly fewer choices.
Really ticks me off.

Use a shipping forwarder. Yes it's a little more expensive to forward items but at least you don't miss out on the figure.

For those who have shipping forwarders or a friend in the US, the Prime Wars Trilogy toys are back in stock - Blast Off (http://a.co/d/aeZYMNY) - Repugnus (http://a.co/d/0vEBE9l) - Counterpunch (http://a.co/d/cP9lxeO) (still pre-order for SEPT 15th, but available through Amazon Australia anyway), for US$25 each.
Plus, Nemesis Prime (http://a.co/d/e0zDqzP) is no longer an Amazon Prime exclusive, so can now be purchased by everyone (if you can ship to an American address) for US$50.
And if you are worried that we won't see wave 4 Deluxe Novastar (http://a.co/d/5ExxKxx) here, it is now on Amazon America as well, for US$17, to be released in three days time. Obviously a lot of Americans fear the same, as it has already hit number one, on the top sellers listing for Action Figures.

I just placed an order on Amazon US for Jetfire, Smashdown and Greenlight since they haven't shown up on Amazon AU. I combined them to make shipping a bit more bearable. $225 all up for figures and shipping, but there's another $18 on top of that for US Amazon Prime. Hopefully I can use that US membership to get a few other items when Prime Day rolls around later this month.

It doesn't matter... If you are a Prime member in one country, it only counts for that country (items and streaming).... which is really annoying. Fortunately they have been offering free trial membership, and it isn't just for people in that home country. Just make sure you cancel your membership before the first month is up, so that they don't start charging you.

Nope. Amazon is supposed to require deliveries to be taken to a depot if an abnormally high number of packages are lost in an area. Amazon just expects a certain amount of packages will be lost and they will have to refund or replace it.
Also, I got charged for my Apeface, hopefully shipping soon.
