The first of "wave 5" Siege has been found in-stores in Australia, with Deluxe Crosshairs & Spinister, and Leader Astrotrain.
The December waves of the Siege toyline has...
Wave 4 Battlemaster - Rung & Singe (not here yet - we had limited release of w1 & w2)
Wave 5 Micromaster - Battle Squad & 2nd Cassette Patrol (not here yet - missed w1, limited release of w3, and w4 still not here yet)
Wave 5 Deluxe - Crosshairs & Spinister (HERE November) (limited release of w1 & w4)
Wave 5 Voyager - Apeface (not here yet - limited release of w1 & w3)
Wave 3 Leader - Astrotrain (HERE November) (limited release of w2)
From a sighting on TFW, the brand new Toymate store in the ACT has got in the Siege Leader Astrotrain (https://news.tfw2005.com/2019/11/19/war-for-cybertron-siege-wave-3-leader-class-astrotrain-out-at-australian-retail-400827), for their usual Leader price of $80.
Toymate Robina
I bought the last Siege Astrotrain ($80) there.

According to a sighting and photo on TFW (https://news.tfw2005.com/2019/11/24/tfw2005-weekly-international-sightings-round-up-november-week-4-401168), the wave 5 Deluxes have been found at Northlands Myer... which is Crosshairs and Spinister... skipping over wave 4 (Impactor, Mirage and Barricade) at Retail.

Hopefully wave 4 does end up here somewhere (they appeared on Amazon Australia as domestic stock, so we did get some stock in Australia), but it mustn't have been much if wave 5 is now showing up.
(maybe Hasbro Australia made sure we got in enough wave 3 stock in Australia so that fans weren't complaining later about not being able to get a set of three Reflectors)
