Go here for case ratios (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-toys-products-30/transformers-age-of-extinction-toys-rumored-case-assortments-wave-1-179534/), if you want to see if your desired items are short-packed or will be easy to find.

A new price comparison topic will be posted up in the AUS news section soon, so keep posting up those prices in the sightings posts if you see them at Kmart, Target or Toyworld.

And don't forget the 2014 Checklist either (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=16763) for future Movie waves. It has been updated will all the verified/known Movie toys except the US store exclusives. They will be added shortly, if I can find out if any of them are coming here.

is it just me or do the transformations seem really basic now

The Deluxe, Leaders and so forth still seems alright. It just seems they are smaller and made of cheaper plastic. Where as all the other stuff like these smash'em'bash'em'flip'em'one'change things. They seems terribly basic.

[Barrel05]

They certainly look cheaper no where near as good as generations

I spent an HOUR on Leader class Grimlock tonight. WITH YouTube videos. He's a tough SOB

More the reason for me to get my hands on one soon. Does his plastic feel alright?

[snaketales]

Do they still have tech specs? I couldn't see any on Evasion Optimus

Hasbro said in an interview that they're not doing them for AOE, but they may return in future.

(I keep meaning to post those interviews up as news but never getting round to it. Maybe this afternoon I will.)

Has Big W not picked up the Generations movie figures. I went into work today and found we had Construct Bots and the kid focused RID line but no Deluxes, Voyagers or Leaders to be found.:(

My local Big W has a big display up, but next to no product on the shelves. I think they might be waiting for the street date (tomorrow, 17th) ... For some reason.

Or this:



So funny story from our hasbro rep...the big w dc still has no leaders or voyagers in the warehouse, which is why most big w stores only have kreos, deluxe and the kids ranges...hasbro isn't happy. Lol.

[Starscream77]

Strange as Big W Penrith has leaders, voyagers and deluxes
My wife bought me leader Grimlock from there as a surprise yesterday

I'll be up in Rocky on Monday, I'll see what they have.

Anyway, I'm getting most of what I want from Takara this time anyway. I just wanted to have a peek at the new moulds.
