VIC Transformers Sightings.

[PaddlesPrime]

At Westfield Southland today:
Big W had pretty much nothing, I think a few Cyberverse warriors or deluxes and four Legacy Kickbacks.
Game Works had one of the Devastator card game boxsets.
K-Mart had a Velocitron Scourge, Burn Out and Road Rocket as well as lots of Legacy W1. Also had SS-86 Hot Rod, first time I've seen one in the wild.
Toyworld has a few WFC:K Tigatron figures for $34.99, as well as a few WFC:K deluxes and Legacy W1 deluxes and core.

[Lint]

Toymate Highpoint is swimming in Wfc Battlemasters for $4. While most of them were Siege Aimless/Blowpipes/Calibursts that were being cleared out by Kmart earlier this year I did spot a handful of Earthrise Rungs and Slitherfangs. They also had Legacy Metroplex albeit at full RRP.

[Lucretia]

Kmart Highpoint had a bunch of velocitron speedia 500 collection deluxe no cosmos though.
x2 Road Rocket
x1 Blur
x1 Burn Out
x3 Crasher
x3 Shadowstrip

[Lint]

Big W Epping has Legacy Tarantulas and Wildrider.

[Demonac]

The velocitron voyagers are now $35 at Kmart (only saw overdrive) & leaders are $59 (only saw RiD Scourge)

[Lint]

Kmart Campbellfield had $35 Overrides and Road Haulers. Also a $59 Scourge but it was in the nerf/clearance section by the Lego.

Deluxe prices unchanged

[vorox4251]

Southland Zing had a full assortment of Legacy W3 Deluxes and a SS Crosshairs as well, $45 is too steep though, even for luxury tax...

[Other]

The TK Maxx in the outlet shopping centre next to Southern Cross has all four of the Kingdom Golden Disk figures in varying quantities. I didn't check all of the prices but the Jackpot set was $35 iirc. Good luck finding all of them though, the toy section looks like a storm hit it

[Demonac]

There are a couple of the BW T-Rex Megatron at Kmart Keilor Downs. $49 each.

[Thurmus]

TK MAXX at Doncaster has a few mutant Tigatron.
K-Mart had the G2 Black and Gold racing car and the black F1 car that looks like the Micro Machine lady.

[JJJ]

Kmart Mildura has received two cases of BW leader Megatron. Took me a bit to twig to why that was so odd - Kmart almost never stocks leaders (the only one I can recall seeing from the past 4 years is Veloctron Scourge). Scanned for $49!

Still no Velocitron wave 2.

Also, the Slugtrons and Bumbleswoops are back.

[Bidoofdude]

Loads of Crasher and Shadowstrip at Kmart Clayton M-City, and a rogue Scourge.

Two each of Armada Starscream, BW Inferno, Skullgrin and Dead End at JB Hifi Bourke Street. I nabbed one Inferno and a Dead End so there should be one of each of those left. There was also a Jhiaxus if anyone was still after him.

[JJJ]

Got Dead End from Mildura JB Hi Fi today, but I had to ask them for it. Wasn't on the shelves, but they had 4 of them out the back according to their inventory (and of course the web page lies and says they don't have any). Took two goes to find it :)

[Thurmus]

Doncaster JB HiFi had Studio Series The Fallen x3

[Other]

Frankston JB Hi Fi has Studio Series The Fallen, Hot Rod and Crosshairs, Laserbeak and a few SS86 Rumbles. They also had Legacy Armada Starscream and Skullgrin.

[JJJ]

Velocitron wave 2 finally made its way to Mildura. Grabbed a Crasher, and, as expected, found no reason to grab Shadowstrip no matter how pretty it is.

[Other]

Jb Hi Fi at Southland had a few Legacy Inferno, Armada Starscream, Skullgrin, Dead End and TM2 Megatrons

[High_Q]

At Doncaster Westfield this afternoon,
Myer had Legacy: multiples of Motormaster, Blaster, Bulkhead, Jhiaxus, Cybertron Metroplex, and
Kmart had multiples of SS86 16 Arcee (so many!), and one each of Legacy Velocitron Burnout, Clampdown, Crasher.

Big W and TK Maxx didn't have many TFs.

[Skyfire]

A redditor (https://www.reddit.com/r/transformers/comments/1012q51/heavily_discounted_ark_figures_in_melbourne_aus/) posted that Toyworld Eastland are selling WFC Kingdom Arks for $99.99 from $279.99.

[LuminisPrime]

Toyworld in Watergardens and Werribee both have a plethora of Behold Galvatrons for $60 as well as Kingdom Arks for $99.

Toyworld Werribee also has heaps of Netflix Leader Spoiler packs for $60(?). They appear tp be the Nemesis Prime ones only

TK Maxx Werribee had one Jackpot and one Mutant Tigatron left for $22 each...

[Other]

Toyworld Southland also has Behold Galvatrons and Netflix Nemesis Primes for the same prices as stated above.

[griffin]

We seem to be getting a lot of these things showing up in odd places lately. Either Australia is getting a lot of older exclusives dumped here cheap, or Hasbro Australia has been ordering a lot more stock than the "exclusives" retailers wanted.

[Other]

On that note, Toyworld Frankston has the reissue Beast Wars Optimus Primal

[Other]

Toyworld Southland has the reissued Beast Wars Optimus Primal and Megatron(49.99)
They also have Earthspark deluxes(44.99) and also the Flipchangers

[SharkyMcShark]

Toyworld Southland has the reissued Beast Wars Optimus Primal and Megatron(49.99)


Is that a sale price or standard? Toyworlds in WA have Primal for 89.99 and Megs for 99.99.

[Lint]

Is that a sale price or standard? Toyworlds in WA have Primal for 89.99 and Megs for 99.99.

It's a standard price (i.e the product has always had the red sticker of 49.99 down from 89.99) since it was put on the shelf. Worth noting that these are only appearing at some "Toyworld Central" franchises.

[Firestorm]

Toyworld Sunbury

Earthspark
Tacticons wave 1 $13ea (i think that's how much they were)
1 Step changers wave 1 $22ea
Deluxes (Bumblebee, Megatron, Twitch) $45ea
and Spin changers (Optimus and Bumblebee) $69.99ea

no sign of warriors

[Other]

Frankston K-mart has Legacy Bomb-Burst and Studio Series Galvatron and Thundercracker if still you're looking for those. There's also a tag up for $25 Velocitron Deluxes but they had jack there

[JJJ]

Dang. Maybe Bomb Burst will eventually filter through up here in Mildura...

[grimlock531]

Seige nemesis prime at clearance prices at FG toykingdom 66516650

[Paulbot]

Kmart empty but Target Chadstone had a small number of EarthSpark toys (the Spin Prime, Deluxes, and 1-steps )

[JJJ]

In Mildura, Target has the Earthspark deluxes, and then the usual left-overs from the past twelve months (including a seemingly unsellable supply of those three Beast Wars exclusives and the wave 1 deluxes). Big W has the spin-changer Prime, and then the dregs of the last year (but at least some wave 2 deluxes). Kmart has dregs (still no deluxes past wave 1) and some Legacy wave 3 voyagers at last (entirely skipping wave 2).

[vorox4251]

Target Frankston has 2 legacy crankcase and a pointblank

[High_Q]

This afternoon, Glen Waverley Target had multiples each of Legacy Dead End, Skullgrin, Pointblank, Crankcase.

[vorox4251]

Legacy evolution deluxes at Myer Southland

[Skyfire]

Legacy evolution deluxes at Myer Southland

Really? Breakdown and the rest? Myer is getting some good stock now then, after stocking wave 1 Legacy Deluxes for 9 months, with wave 3 Legacy Deluxe now in Perth.

[Paulbot]

At lunchtime yesterday Melbourne CBD Myer had nothing “new” but several Metroplex and Motormasters and the usual shelfwarmers. Last night Myer Chadstone had the remains of one Evolutions deluxe case: one each of Needlenose, Hot Shot and Scraphook. I bought Needlenose. some wave 3 deluxes too, Tarantulas and Wildrider. If you’re after a Sweep they had 23 of them and a heap of Bulkhead and Jihaxus (but even with the 20% off all those voyager are $50. The Zing store had Skullgrin and a single Hot Shot for $45

I think we had very similar idea's last night, Zing Chaddy did have a Leo Prime, and I was so close to looking for a Needlenose in Myer instead of going to ZIng :cool:

[Other]

Zing Highpoint has Legacy Evo Hotshot and SS RotB Cheetor.
The Toymate there didn't have any of those $90 MPM-12s that have been seen at some of the other branches. They did have two WFC Netflix Elita-1s if you want on of those though. And some of those Buzzworthy BB 4-packs, the one with Fangry, for $50
The K-Mart there is clearly in the middle of a reset as there's lot of empty pegs tags that say Transformers MV7 and then various product types

[Choos]

Not great at this but was at Highpoint Toyworld and I could have sworn the sticker on the Ark/Teletraan TF said $99.

Was there to check for the Toymate MPM-12 bargain (not having seen yesterdays post.)

[Paulbot]

Yep several Toyworld stores have the Ark for $100. Bargain too

[JJJ]

JB Hi Fi Mildura has the new wave (Tarn, Hot Shot, Scrapheap, Leo Prime) in stock and available for sale. The web page still says pre-order for next weekend.

They don't have any of Breakdown, because they are getting the toys as solid cases, not assortment cases (I asked and got confirmation). This will also be why they don't yet list Needlenose.

Almost all other Transformers stock has been removed from display (and there was quite a mountain of it, too).

Also, I found Earthspark warriors at Big W.

[vorox4251]

JB HI FI Southland is putting out their new Legacy stock out, nabbed one of the tarn�s, still a couple there along with selects magnificus

[Lint]

Army builders rejoice, Toyworld Epping has Voyager SS Sweeps for $25

Also a good number of $60 Netflix Nemesis Prime and Gen Selects Behold Galvatron

[Paulbot]

Myer Chadstone had around half a dozen of Hot Shot and Scraphook but not the other two new deluxes. Heaps and heaps of Metroplex (on clearance), Motormaster, Jihaxus, and Sweeps

Kmart Chadstone had well stocked the wave 1 Earthrise releases ($35 for the deluxes)

Zing had a Scraphook and a few older toys in faded boxes (assume the lighting in the glass cabinet has faded them?)

[Firestorm]

When I was at Big W Sunbury today I saw tags up for introductory offers for Earthspark Deluxe and "Legacy EV" deluxe both for $29 i believe.
No legacy stuff on the shelves though. but maybe this means Evolution wave 1 might be showing up there soon.

they also had 2x Studio Series the Fallen, and 2x Studio Series Sludge if anyone is still after them.
also 3x Studio series BB Thundercracker and 1x AOE Galvatron

[JJJ]

Big W Mildura just put two new cartons of wave 1 voyagers on the shelves. Legacy wave 1, not Legacy Evolution wave 1. The stuff that was new this time last year...

[JJJ]

I'm sure there's a better thread for this, but I can't locate it :)

Just saw a bunch of Cyberverse Scout toys (packaging copyright was marked 2021) in my local Reject Shop for $8 each (I think...). Starscream, Bumblebee, Shadow Striker, and Ratchet that I can recall.

[vorox4251]

Reported this on Facebook earlier:

Kmart Rosebud had the ROTB Mainline figures on the shelves, went to purchase however they aren't actually able to be sold until the 10th

[Other]

Got them to price match Big W�s sale price on studio series voyagers and got myself a Battletrap, stop several left

[High_Q]

Myer had Legacy Tarantulas, Elita-1, Knock-Out and Motormaster.

[Firestorm]

Wave 3 Legacy deluxes at Big W Sunbury
Skullgrin, Breakdown, Crankcase, and I think there were some Dead Ends too.
No sign of anything Evolution or RotB

[JJJ]

Big W Mildura just put two new cartons of wave 1 voyagers on the shelves. Legacy wave 1, not Legacy Evolution wave 1. The stuff that was new this time last year...

And today they have some brand new wave 3 deluxes fresh in from ... November last year.

[High_Q]

At Westfield Doncaster Myer this afternoon, there were a few ROTB Smash Changers Primal and OP, also multiples each of ROTB Voyager Primal and OP.

[Other]

Jb Hifi Southland has SSGE WFC Bumblebee and the War Dawn 2 Pack

[griffin]

And yet, the War Dawn 2-pack still isn't on the site yet, to help find which stores have it. :(

[JJJ]

Maybe it's like Origins Jazz, which has been reported as store stock only, so isn't on their site.

[Other]

Oh yes, they also had at least one Origins Jazz, completely slipped my mind

[Stompy]

JB Hi-Fi Doncaster:
- had 6 (now 5) Studio Series Leader Scourge for $95.
- War Dawn 2-Pack

[Lint]

Big W Epping is swimming in Armada Primes and Metalhawks. Seems to be decently stocked with everything else in general.

[Other]

JB HiFi Frankston has Legacy Evo Beachcomber, Axelgrease, Scarr, Dirge, Nemesis Leo Prime and Armada Megatron

[Jeeves]

Everyone one should check their local jb, just found buzzworthy SS 102 prime, was 3 on shelf when I walked in and none when I left so be quick

[Other]

JB Hifi Southland has the Toxitron collection Deluxes and Cloudcover, the Buzzworthy Bumblebee BB Optimus and the technically not dead yet but just about BWBB Prowl/Ironhide 2 pack

[Paulbot]

Thanks for the tip, popped in after work and got a Cloudcover. They had good numbers of the deluxes but few of the bigger ones (only one Clouscover left, another fan picked the second of three) and only saw one of each leader) Plenty of the New BB SS Optimus too.

[Other]

$31.20 each

[High_Q]

Around lunchtime at Doncaster Westfield yesterday, there wasn't much. Noticed a few vintage line Beast Wars K-9 and Iguanus, and a few SS86 17 Ironhide at Big W. Not much at Target or Myer.

[JJJ]

JB have SS86 Frenzy in stock right now. I have one in my hot little hands. You may have to fight to get them to look out the back.

Yes, I know their website still says pre-order coming soon - it lies.

They also have Scrapheap, G1 Blaster & Soundwave, and a few other things I didn't care about :)

[Paulbot]

Didn't see Frenzy, but the Bourke St City store had some G1 Blaster and Soundwave, the SS voayagers (Scrapheap, Game Starscream), some of the new deluxes (Chase, Bumblebee, Rock one...) and legends (Galvatron, Rockone), and SS legends (Mohawk) on the shelf

[JJJ]

New stock at long last!

Target Mildura has wave 2 Earthspark warrior class toys, Megatron and (the one I've been waiting ages for) Thrash. The one that seems to be a better representation of the cartoon character than the forthcoming deluxe for some reason...


Huh. Turns out it is almost a year to the day since I bought the Earthspark wave 1 toys (both deluxe and warrior).

[Firestorm]

Saw the RotB mainline �Beast Combiners� Scourge with Scorponok set at Big W in Melton today quite surprising since it had been so long since we�d gotten any RotB stuff here and didn�t think we�d be getting it

https://imgur.com/a/nEntcHw

[Jaxius._]

Kmart Greensborough finally has restocked transformers!

A mainline rotb Nightbird (headless) and Wheeljack who has his head, as well as some bumblebee and prime masks, but hey it is at least some new stock?

The rescue bot multipacks that seem to never sell have also reappeared

[Other]

Frankston(bayside) JB Hifi has SS86 Blaster, SS BB Shockwave, SS WFC Sideswipe and Origin Wheeljack

[Other]

Zing Southland has Origins Wheeljack, Legacy Gears and Core Cheetor
The Big W has SS86 Brawn and his wave as does Target(actual new stock in a Target, will wonders ever cease)
The Myer has SS WFC Starscream and his wave, which is also at Big W as well

[JJJ]

JB Hi Fi has Sandstorm and Gears in stock (and Chomia and that green poo-dripping looking helicopter thing).

Thing is, at my store (and I can't imagine mine would be unique) they hadn't bothered putting them on display. They weren't out the back; oh no, they were on the floor down the back of the shop, under some shelves...

[JJJ]

Target Mildura re-stocked Earthspark warriors this week, and finally put out Jawbreaker, as part of some sort of rolling wave change rather than a the normal discrete wave thing.

[JJJ]

Big W Mildura has one Silverbolt today, no sign of Cybertron Starscream or Legacy United wave 3 deluxes. Don't know if this means they've come and gone since, say, Wednesday, or if the staff just haven't put stuff out yet :)

[Paulbot]

Waverley Gardens Big W had Cybertron Hot Shot, Sideburn, rock car guy, and a Strongarm in the deluxe range. Bunch of Megatrons and Laser Prime in the leader class. Studio Series voyagers AOE Galvatron, 86 Ironhide and a headless gamer Starscream. A lone Legacy Metalhawk too in a torn box in the clearance zone.

[Lint]

Moonee Ponds Kmart had many of the Transformers One Prime as well as SS86 Bumblebee

[Lint]

Two Legacy Sandstorms at JB Hi-fi Highpoint today

[Lint]

Not a transformer but I saw these at Aldi today

https://i.imgur.com/MMtVl3y.jpeg

[JJJ]

Not something I care about, but apparently something new - at Kmart Mildura today I saw an Authentics Titan Changers Wheeljack (https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Wheeljack_(G1)/toys#Authentics).

[Paulbot]

Dozens of ROTB Primals at Myer in the CBD, and plenty of SS86 Bumblebee. No SS86 Springers though

[Paulbot]

Two Voyager Gamer Edition Ratchets and the Junkion from that wave at Kmart (Parkmore) along with a restock of the 86 Steeljaw/BB Movie Rumble/86 Ratchet core class wave

[Other]

Legacy RID Motormaster and SS GE WFC Ratchet are in at Myer CBD

[High_Q]

Westfield Doncaster JB Hifi has Legacy United wave 4, including multiples of G1 OP, Metalhawk and Motormaster. Also has Filch, Road Pig , the Soundwave set. SS Gamer Edition Reactivate Bumblebee.

[Lint]

JB Epping has restocked Legacy United in a big way with shelves crammed to the brim with Wave 3 & 4 Voyagers and Leaders, Wave 4 Deluxes and Wave 3 Cores. Some remnants of older waves also present

[Skyfire]

According to Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/transformers/comments/1jkw5t7/australian_friends_toyworld_has_stock_whilst/), Toyworld Fountain Gate has the new Studio Series TFTM Bonecrusher, DOTM Wheeljack (Que), WFC Ironhide and TFTM Scrapper.

[Lint]

The Legacy Evolution Deadeye Duel 2-pack has appeared at Toyworlds

[Paulbot]

Was there last night, and the Constructions were sold out, but AOTP voyagers Prima Prime and Red Alert and leader G2 Grimlock were also there.

Barely any TFs at all at Big W or Kmart. JB had the later Legacy waves.

[Paulbot]

An empty Parkmore Big W. A couple of Studio Series 86 voyager Ironhide and Studio Series deluxe Devastation Optimus at Kmart. JB had some of the later Legacy toys, including Ramjet, and the AOTP voyagers Prima Prime and Red Alert, and AOTP leader G2 Grimlock.
