6 Metroplex on the top shelf at Target Chadstone

And I found the Toyworld Express, it's in the old Dick Smith store. Last time it was around it was on the opposite side, where there's now a book store.

Have you tried asking Target CBD for inter-store transfer? You should be able to get it for the sale price when placing an order during the sale period. My only concern is the pot luck with the packaging. I've seen some really beat up boxes. It's as if Metroplex is trying to blast, punch, kick his way out of the box!

Kazza
30th September 2013, 01:33 PM
You guys can save you time going to CBD target. They are sold out!!

I went to doncaster target. Picked up a metroplex, with 10 still remaining. The boxes are pretty beat up, there are some that are mediocre maybe 1-2.

30th September 2013, 01:35 PM
Target will send to a store for free.... if it is instock on their website, as it would still be instock at their warehouse. Don't know if they do transfers between stores though, as it would cost them money to do that. (deliveries from the warehouse are every few days, so it would just be added to the next deliver)


As for the packaging - I'm surprised that they've been showing up with heavy damage, considering they are supposed to be shipping in master cartons to protect them. The store nightfill (or the warehouse employee stacking the pallets) must be being really rough on these.

Sinnertwin
30th September 2013, 01:46 PM
One possible answer to the damaged Metroplex boxes could be Target's process of deboxing their merchandise, ready for immediate processing by floor staff. For example

Stock arrives at the interstate warehouses
Stock is removed from shipping cartons
Stock is grouped, packed onto cages & then transported out.

Alternatively, they may remove the shipping cartons at the store & stack them along with the other toys ready for processing.

Either way, it isn't ideal as the larger/heavier boxes tend to get packed lower on the cage first, ready for staff.

Yeah, the big box is deceiving, so it's likely to be placed at the bottom of cages/pallets... and since they have so much empty space in them, they collapse easily when something smaller is placed inside the edges.
A shame really, as the box is going to be like the original Fort Max box - a display piece on its own.

Target - Highpoint:Wave 1 Beast Hunters & Constructbots, 4 x Metroplex

Toyworld - Highpoint: A lot of old DOTM on sale
Big W - Highpoint: Wave 1 Beast Hunters
TRU - Highpoint: Wave 1 Beast Hunters & Constructbots, RescueBots Optimus

The FoC's & Springer aint that bad of a price considering if you factor in shipping.

Target Doncaster Westfield has at least 8 Metroplexes for $149ea.

Lint
6th October 2013, 03:32 PM
Summary of my weekend's observations:

Geelong Target has about a dozen Metroplex sitting up high, they are also reasonably well stocked of beast hunters stuff in general so if you're out west and struggling it might be worth the drive.

Geelong Big W had nothing much to write home about.

Target Northland and Greensborough are devoid of Metroplexes and anything new in particular.

Toyworld Greensborough had a lone Prime Voyager Bulkhead marked down to $30 which might be worthwhile for anyone who does not have one already. (don't really remember seeing many of them on the shelves like ever)

BigTransformerTrev
8th October 2013, 05:08 PM
In Swan Hill:

Target has 5 Metroplex's (feeling even MORE stupid for ordering him online, but never thought they would reach here as most TF's dont)

Toyworld has RescueBots Optimus with Trailer for $40 ($10 cheaper than TRU in Melb)

griffin
9th October 2013, 02:07 AM
$40 is a great price for here... considering the usual markup on Rescue Bots being at least double the US pricing.
That figure was $33 plus tax in America. Even on sale on Amazon at $30, it still cost me AU$53 with shipping. One of the rare occasions that it would have been cheaper to buy here... if I had known. :(

I thought it was a good price, as I remember the one time I had seen regular RB figures in Target they were $30 each :eek: I think I got Heatwave and Prime back then only when there was a 20% off sale as they are steep prices for such simple toys (I still couldn't bring myself to get BBee as he looked so awful).

I think it's the one time Toyworld here in Swan Hill actually had a good bargain, usually they charge like mad bulls!

Anyone seen Ultra Magnus and Springer at Target? I can get them both from Amazon for $60 shipped but I just wanted to make sure I can't get a better deal while this 20% sale is going on. I think these are like $40 at Big W so I doubt we'd have em cheaper?

10th October 2013, 06:57 AM
Generations Springer hasn't been released here, so you'll need to resort to Amazon for that one. Beast Hunters Ultra Magnus has been seen here, but very sporadic.

Ultra Magnus (if it's the Beast Hunters version) was on the shelves at Toyworld, Big W and Target in Ballarat, and K-Mart out in Wendouree.

No Springer anywhere in the country, and even with sales you won't get that sort of deal.

Some Target stores still have the YOTS Ultra Magnus and I'm pretty sure it has been lowered to $49.
I've seen the Beast Hunter version at both Kmart and Target.
Minotaur in the city did have some Springers for $52 about two weeks ago, I was there on Monday, didn't see any though, however they did get a delivery on Friday. The main reason I went was to pickup a FOC Blaster which wasn't on display but was out the back. Last time I checked they had them marked as In Stock online.

Target: The Regular TF section had a lone BH Ratchet and rest of wave 1 stuff. 2 Metroplex's on top shelf,while 9 in the "What's New" section along with a display of Ultimate Predaking and Optimus.

Toy Kingdom: Sharkticon Megatron behind a wall of BH Voyagers. Constructbots Wave 2,heaps of Thundercrackers. FOC Wave 3 (picked up Starscream,I think he was the only one) DOTM Human Alliance as mentioned before, and all of the Wave 1 Constructbots. Sadly no PRID Wave 2 (someone found my Bulkhead..:( )

2x Grimlock vs. Brutiscus Platinum Editions at Toys R Us in Belmont, but no price on the shelf. A bunch of FOC toys too for $29.99. Two Kickbacks, but one is way up the top of the shelves, so you'd need to get staff to get a ladder.

(Not Transformers, but Toy Kingdom on Shannon Avenue has the Sandtrooper, Luke Skywalker Pilot suit, and R2-D2 Black Series for $39.99 too).

Yeah there's lots of complaints about Bruticus too. I've not opened mine and think it probably never will be opened (by me).

11 Metroplexs left at Big W Werribee plaza since I left. They're $98 each, picked another up today. How ever they're not in the transformer section, they're in the aisle to the right of the transformers up the very top.

Also a single Platinum Omega Supreme sitting up there with them for $98 too. They box felt pretty damaged on the back, and one of his feet looked a little manged in the box. So not sure if he's broken or not, didn't take a proper look at it.

EDIT: Also like 35 Platinum Optimus' in K-Mart Werribee plaza. As above, not in the transformers section, but again the aisle to the right up the very top as well.

Got to love how these places get such nice figures and boxes, yet place them elsewhere from where they should be.

I think it's the second for our Costco stores, as they had the Movie Ultimate Bumblebee (with the golden Legends Bumblebee) a couple years back.

I was half expecting Metroplex to show up at our Costcos because it showed up cheap at the American ones... but when I asked the Canberra store a week ago, they didn't have anything on their system. So it must only show up in their computer when they receive items.

I thought it might be cheaper too, since the US Costco was selling theirs for US$78 (if I recall).... but $109 is still almost half TRU pricing, and almost as cheap as the one-off sale prices Target and BigW had.

TF shelves are emptying. Barely anything left at TRU Chadstone (except an unwanted legion Airachnid- seven of her and some of the Bruticus/Grim lock pack) but Kmart had a good number of BH Voyagets including Megatron and Shockwave.

The Toy world at Docklands had the BH Weaponisers and those tall non-ttansforming Prime and Bumblebee toys. They also had those little blind packed statue things and a few FOC deluxes.

Then again, we are Hasbro's dumping ground, and those weren't selling anywhere else.

I went yet again for the sake of it, and just enjoy the pointless haggling even though I wont buy it. But they still wont budge from $45. Even when it's so much cheaper to buy online, with postage.


Haha :D

I hated even talking to this older sales lady who always act like she's losing money if she price matches from another store's catalogue. You can just see it on her face that she doesn't want to provide good customer service and always looks annoyed. I always try to find another person to help me out.

I went back to this store again today, not only are they still $45, they now are "marked down from $50". Gave me a good laugh.

That's the regular (non-sale) price.

It's funny though that for a toy that big to think that $150 is too expensive. It could have been much worse (or you could shop at Myer ;) )

Even at $150 it's a great figure......errrr.....mammoth vehicle play set

Seriously though this is a fantastic toy and anyone who has had the job of busting this guy out of his box, putting him together, transforming him, and listening to him will fall in love

Christmas morning was pretty special with my boy in sheer disbelief of 'I got metroplex and I didn't even ask for him on my Santa list!!!!'

They do charge a premium for sometimes being the first to import new waves. I remember getting TF Prime Vehicon from them for only slightly above rrp.

Also at the end of my travels yesterday, I came across "One Stop Anime Shop" located near Melbourne Chinatown Hungry Jacks. They had: Kabaya Onslaught for $8, Alternity Super GT-R Megatron for $150 with 25% off, and MP Smokescreen for $80. Seems like they might be worth checking out every now and then. I do like seeing imported stuff locally :)
