QLD Transformers Sightings.

[Jason Voorhees]

Went to my local Toyworld in Townsville and they had All of earthrise except for the deluxes Can't rember the prices except the micromaster were $14.99. They had Cyberverse Energon Armor Optimus Prime and Shockwave $70. One step changers Bludgeon and Whirl $24.99 Deluxe Fusion mace Megatron and Stealth force Hot Rod 29.99. Energon Armour Bumblebee, Hot Rod, Clobber for $39.99.

[reillyd]

Robina Kmart had a restock of Cyberverse Wave 1. Strangely seemed to be 7 Megatron and 2 Shockwave, with no other characters. So either a strange assortment or people really hate Megatron and the other toys sold out.

No sighting in Toymate of Earthrise or new Cyberverse.

[griffin]

Kmart Garden City have also restocked their Cyberverse Deluxe with two of each of wave 1 there yesterday.

[Defcon]

Kmart Garden city, has a bunch of voyagers SS Long Haul, KSI Boss. Also SS deluxes, the Arcee bike triplets.

[Convoid]

[phealey]

Myer at Garden City had Earthrise figures in stock, just 1 of each, see below. I'd say they will have more soon.

1x Optimus (taken)
1x Grapple (taken)
1x Wheeljack (taken)
1x Hoist (taken)
1x Cliff Jumper (taken)
1x Ironworks
1x Astrotrain

[Soundwarp]

? 28th surgery on my feet tomorrow. I’m seriously missing the thrill of the chase.

[reillyd]

Hope your foot is better soon. You?re not missing much but empty hunts at the moment though ;)

Following surprise of Mayer having Earthrise I visited Myer Pacific Fair and Robina, with both stores confirming they have had no stock in the last week. But it is online, as ?assorted? so no choice in the figure. It might mean it will turn up on a few weeks though.

[reillyd]

just got a call from a Very helpful Myer employee that it?s just come in to Robina dock, and he was kind enough to fish Optimus out for me. They also have Voyager siZe and deluxe but may not put it out until later. It really was delightful to have helpful retail staff who go the extra mile. Not a dig at underpaid overworked retail staff, but just impressed by his kindness

[Jellico]

I suspect I missed the Mt Gravatt ones by hours (was there yesterday morning). There was nothing in Carindale today.

At least the online ones are no longer "limited stock".

Really it is the Leaders that I am most worried about. They were off and on last year.

[Soundwarp]

My poor wife has to do all the hunting for me while I’m laid up.
She has done it before for “Transformers Cybertron” whole I was overseas.
So cheers to all foe sightings.

[Sinnertwin]

Via TCCA FB, Siege Deluxes ($29) and Voyagers ($49) spotted at Kmart Indooroopilly. Looks like they're finally starting to filter through to more big box retailers.

No Earthrise at Myer Maroochydore or any other Plaza shops.

[griffin]

No Earthrise toys at Kmart Sunnybank today, but they did have a couple of new Rescue Bots toys - the Academy 4-pack for a very cheap $49 (for $76 worth of toys) and the Mini Racers for $7 (six toys - Optimus, Bumblebee, Heatwave, Hoist, Whirl, Hotshot).

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020km16.jpg

Myer Maroochydore had at least one each of every Earthrise Voyager and Leader and plenty of Deluxes.

[Defcon]

Sighted Earthrise Deluxes, and Voyagers at Kmart Garden City. I picked up 3 deluxes. Starscream appears gone, there were a couple of Grapples and Ironworks. Latest wave of Studio series deluxes appeared to have sold.
Kmart Sunnybank Hills, also has Earthrise Deluxes and Voyagers. Almost all gone unless restocked.

Sighted Earthrise Astrotrain at Myer Garden City, only 2 left. Appears to be nothing else as of yesterday.

[griffin]

Myer Carindale 2 hours ago still had Earthrise Grapple, Astrotrain, Ironworks and Cliffjumper.
They also had the new Cyberverse Ultimate Optimus & Shockwave.
Heaps of older Cyberverse and Studio Series Deluxe, along with several of Long Haul and KSI Boss.

Target had series 4 Single Pack Botbots, and heaps of the Series 3 5-packs.


And for the regular visitors of Carindale, they are opening up a Kmart where the top floor of David Jones used to be.

[Soundwarp]

Kmart Maroochydore had a slab of Deluxes (now minus one Cliffjumper & Hoist) and only one Grapple - no other Voyagers or classes.

No Earthrise at Myer Maroochydore or any other Plaza shops.


My wife just went there and there were none ?
She even asked and was told they weren’t in yet.
We know that’s not true because you got some.
? pitfall of not being there myself.

I don't think more storepeople know what they have or where sometimes.

I found Grapple at Caboolture on Saturday, nothing else Earthrise in the store. He was stashed behind some new lego sets, but the store person I asked said it had been a return (and the package had the tape cut, albeit not missing anything) and she said they had some down to be received but no other stock nor had they any record of that being received. As well, there were no tickets up.

The number of times I find things in other aisles or even multiple places in the same aisle is staggering.

I also once spent quarter of an hour on the phone to a store 100km from home (200km from where I was at the time) going over what a box looked like, the names on it, the shapes and colours of everything to ensure this store had the last A-Wing I could find in the country, drove out to get it, and got handed a TIE Fighter. What people see and read can be staggeringly different from reality.

Indeed. Proof:

They were on a lower shelf beneath all the pegs... maybe she didn't look low.

Also, Myer got some the day after that (Friday). I know because I kept checking their stock checkers, which seem to indicate they still have some left:

Deluxe (https://www.myer.com.au/p/transformers-generations-earthrise-war-for-cybertron-55-deluxe-action-figures-assortment) (currently in stock)
Voyager (https://www.myer.com.au/p/transformers-generations-earthrise-war-for-cybertron-7-voyager-action-figures-assortment) (out of stock)
Leader (https://www.myer.com.au/p/transformers-transformers-generations-earthrise-war-for-cybertron-7-leader-action-figures-assortment) (limited stock)

I kept refreshing that page Friday morning - it kept saying out of stock, and then all of a sudden it said In Stock. I raced down, and the shelves were empty. I went and saw the large service desk just across the entrance and showed them, and she said she'd have a look around back and call me in 30 minutes. I had lunch, and before I finished, she called, and when I returned, she had a full case of Deluxes (8), Voyagers (Only 3- someone must've grabbed one?) and Leader (2). I only grabbed Starscream and went on my way. The Leader Prime had a scratch across his faceplate - otherwise I'd have taken him too.

Remember you can order online at Myer and/or at Myer's eBay store. Sure, it's "assorted" but they offer free Change of Mind returns... which means you can keep trying until you get what you want and just return everything you don't.

[jaydisc]

Voyagers (Only 3- someone must've grabbed one?)

Ah, it looks like the Voyagers only come in cases of 3 now:

And Starscream is shortpacked

[Defcon]

And Starscream is shortpacked

Thanks for the info, I was not aware of this. It explains why I have not seen Starscream on the shelf.

[Jellico]

Indooroopilly Myer was showing an false positive for Earthrise stock this morning. I dropped in this afternoon. Transformers scattered over four isles but no Earthrise.

[Soundwarp]

Myer Maroochydore has Grapple and Wheeljack!

(Thanks to my wife of course)

[Convoid]

Mr Toys Toyworld Burleigh has Series 4 Botbots Goldrush Games (2 of each).

https://imgur.com/ksu9uVH.jpg

[Jellico]

Just found the Earthrise Voyagers and Deluxes ($50 and $35) and Studio Series Mixmaster and Megatron ($50) at Big W Springfield.

Talked them down to Kmart prices.

[griffin]

Excellent. I almost bought some more off amazon, hoping to get the sets I still need. (like the Arcade 16-pack, there are two versions of each of these two packs - but fortunately, you can tell by which Botbots toys are in the clear capsule in the window... and you need both versions of each if you want the full set of Series 4 toys)

[griffin]

Carindale Myer last weekend during the sale - most are probably gone by now.

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020m03.jpg

Coles Sunnybank (tonight) have the next issue of the Rescue Bots UK magazine, with Chase as the free toy, and Hoist being the free toy for next issue.

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020c04.jpg

Kmart Sunnybank tonight - the Botbots Series 3 8-packs are finally here, which allowed me to complete the 3rd series without having to buy more random packs from Amazon America.
They finally got in the Studio Series Deluxe with the Triplets and Soundwave, plus some Earthrise, but only a single Grapple, Wheeljack and Ironworks left.

Not just in Queensland either, as I found this one at a Kmart in Melbourne two weeks ago.

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020km23.jpg

[Ravagecat]

Earthrise found at Mr Toys Springwood.
Had both Battlemasters $10 ea, both Micromaster 2 pack Sets $20 ea these were on shelf.
Over behind counter they had deluxes $35 saw cliffjumper at least but could see more behind. Saw Starscream $50 I think, saw optimus $90

[reillyd]

Big W Runaway Bay, and Toyworld Southport all have Cyberverse Deluxes @39.00 (i thought it was just price gouging at Toyworld, but Big W have as well), all Wave 1 though which you can get cheaper at Kmart. Both stores have Earthrise Voyager Grappel and Starscream as of noon today, and Earthrise Deluxes. Only Toyworld has the battlemasrers and micromasters

[phealey]

Loganholme Earthrise:

BigW: 3x Starcreams, 3x Grapple, 2x CliffJumper
Kmart: 2xStarscream (taken 1), 4x Grapple, 2x Ironworks
Mr Toys: 2x Optimus, 2xGrapple, 2x CliffJumper.
Toymate: Nothing but Siege.

So Starscream is now becoming more accessible.

[Soundwarp]

Darn Optimus keeps eluding me.
Uncle Pete’s helped me with the others ( able to buy from my chair).

[DELTAprime]

At Big W Gladstone we have Earthrise Deluxes and Voyagers. There is a little stock out the back also at the moment so please ask one of my colleges to have a look for you if the shelves are empty.

[Jellico]

I managed to grab one at Mr Toys Carindale. Full price. I tried to use the Toyworld price but because it wasn't on their website any more they weren't interested. I was being a secret squirrel so I didn't take the time to check numbers so I didn't post. Sorry.

[kovert]

Seems WFC Earthrise Deluxe class figures have now increased to $34 at Big W.

[Soundwarp]

Hey if anyone is in a position to grab one for me that would be amazing.
Obviously I’ll pay and I’m even happy to pay finders fees on top of purchase and postage.
Mainly due to our crappy AUD vs USD.

Hey yo! Been seeing a lot of Earthrise about my area, that?s fair enough, but I found SS 54 Megatron today at North Lakes Big W, so I thought I?d share that info with you lovely guys and gals! Took pics but don?t know how to post them. Wah-wuh. Hope you?re all ok!

[Gouki]

Big W Willows in Townsville has the deluxe and Voyagers of the first Earhrise wave. Quite a few deluxe at that.

Myer Townsville has the Leaders, both Optimus and Astrotrain.

[jaydisc]

Sunshine Plaza (Earthrise - sorry I’m blind to the rest)
Myer: Nothing
Target: 2 x Grapple, 1 Starscream
Big W: At least 2 of every deluxe/voyager
Kmart: same as Target (plus Siege Crosshairs/Spinister)

[griffin]

Today at Garden City....
(I noticed today that every retailer has picked up the Cyberverse Deluxe toys, with Kmart being the best at $29, and all of the others being $39-40.)

BigW - Some Earthrise Deluxe & Voyager (both Starscream and Grapple), plus all four of the latest Studio Series Deluxe. Also, they had 3 cases of the Series 3 Botbots 8-packs, which were only just found in this country a few days ago. Plus the new Cyberverse Deluxe and Ultimates. Plus, a big range of recent DVDs back in stock.

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020tg03.jpg


Myer - Earthrise Micromasters and a single Leader Astrotrain. Knowing Myer, this will probably be the last restock until the mid-year sales.

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020m04.jpg


Kmart - Still no Earthrise toys, or anything new, other than the Rescue Bots 4-pack and a restocking of the regular Rescue Bots figures (which unfortunately, is just a wave of all re-releases). Also unfortunate, is seeing all 9 packs of Botbots 8-packs, having their mystery figure stolen. I'm glad that the second year of multi-packs don't have this same easy-open gimmick, but it still might be a while until we see any of them here.

Also full set of Cyberverse Deluxe Wave 1.

Target Runaway Bay has 2x Starscream 3x Grappel. Seems strange to have 2 unless case ratio differed.

[Jellico]

Not a toy sighting as such.

There is a brand new MrToys at Springfield Orion.On the main street at the Target end. I haven't been in yet (I managed to get all my early year purchases before the lock downs) so I can't say what is there. But if it is as new as it looks there might be a chance to get all the popular items from February.

[reillyd]

Big W Robina has Cyberverse deluxe on CLEARANCE at $12 dollars each (I paid $40 at Toyworld). I thought this must be a pricing error, but it had a real strange tag "Better than half price" which I've never seen before at Big W. this leads me to believe it's intentional....

I took a photo as it seemed too unbelievable, but don't know how to share it.

I'm hoping that will clear Wave 1 leading to Waves 2 and 3 being put out on shelves. At $12 it might be worth getting just for the blast accessories to use on Siege toys

[griffin]

If it is anything like Kmart "clearance" tags, it would mean that they aren't getting anymore stock in, and will delete the line once the current stock sells out.

Post it on the Ozformers Facebook page and Griffin can post it here, it's how I've done it before.

[reillyd]

Thanks SMHFConvoy, that's a great solution. They also had Earthrise Voyager for $39, so it looks like it's 'sale' pricing and not clearance. Also they were overflowing with Cyberverse Deluxes, must have been at least 3 cases worth. They had started putting out other Big W Toy sale items, so I think it must be a tie in.

[Convoid]

Toymate Robina has all the Earthrise wave 1 figures (no Leader Optimus left). They also have the Botbots Series 4 Gold Rush games packs.


https://imgur.com/6pFjwvK.jpg

[griffin]

Looking on the Toymate website, those prices have a very very tiny 99 cents next to each one, which is very deceptive, making everything actually a dollar more expensive than it looks at first glance. It's so tiny, that even in person you have to really get in close to make sure it is 99 or 00, as they are very similar when that small.

[Jellico]

Non sighting. What is going on with Earthrise Deluxes? I skipped Ironworks with the idea that as an unknown hr would shelf warm and I could pick him up on sale deep in the recession. When I did some recon earlier in the week I couldn't see him. There were heaps around 2 weeks ago.
For the last few days I have gone hunting and had to resort to Mr Toys (price matched Kmart). While most stores have a few random ER Deluxes they are low in number and could be any character. Really odd. Lots of Voyagers though.

Supply and delivery issues probably? Interstate travel is limited, let alone international shipping. Distribution to QLD stores for ER was probably just starting when things went crazy.

Jada Licensed Bumblebee (price wont scan) along with a Kit Knight Rider and Deadpool van

Related but not, Big W Calamvale has closed down.

Temporarily or permanently?

It was only a small store, but I liked going there.
I got my giant Optimus cardboard store display from that store back in 2011.

[griffin]

Looks like it's permanent (https://7news.com.au/business/finance/big-w-store-in-brisbanes-south-forced-to-close-overnight-due-to-lease-agreement-c-1006019)... :(

BigW had been closing some stores earlier in the year that were under-performing, but this one was a sudden closure, due to a leasing agreement (maybe their rent was due, and decided to pull the plug before paying anymore money to the centre management).
They apparently stopped trading this morning after only just announcing it last night, so there won't be any discount sales to clear out stock that they don't want to transport to other stores.

That was often a go-to store for me for Transformers, as it was a good backup if Garden City sold out fast, and the next nearest stores for me were 20 minutes away.
I guess being a smaller, quieter store may have benefited me with toy hunting, but obviously worked against the store itself.

[Silverbolt]

Ipswich Big W has 4 Hollywood rides 1977 bumblebee, $39.99.

From the last few days, checking out my nearest stores to see how they are faring after a few weeks of lockdown, limiting what people can buy at the stores, and the number of people who can afford spending on non-essentials...

Target Garden City - almost looks the same as it did a few weeks ago, so nothing new.

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020tg04.jpg

BigW Garden City - also looks about the same, but had the new licensed Jada Bumblebee car for $39.

[griffin]

Just noting from one of the photos taken at the Sunnybank Kmart, the Botbots are now on Clearance, which for Kmart means that they are no longer re-stocking those lines.
The single packs were down to $3 (from $5) and the 8-packs were down to $19 (from $25).
They never stocked the 5-packs.

[griffin]

I know that this is a non-sighting, which might seem like a tease, but it lets people in Brisbane know that it is slowly showing up here - at Woolies Garden City, I (finally) found the small Authentics Ratchet toy.

http://toycollectors.com.au/2020ww01.jpg

The strange thing though, is that it's barcode at the register kept scanning as 8 units, totalling $80. It was as if the barcode for Ratchet was in the system as it's master carton barcode, so a supervisor had to be called over to fix it.
It had me freaking out for a second when the register screen said $120, for just a handful of items.
When they fixed it and I paid the actual amount of about $50, they apologised for the error... at which time I remembered something and asked half-heartedly - "doesn't this mean it should have been free?"
The supervisor said yes without hesitation, and offered my money back.
I didn't really care, since I had already paid for it, and it was just $10, but since the supervisor was offering it (instead of the usual resistance you normally get chasing up a refund), I said, okay.
So Ratchet started off being an $80 toy, but ended up being free.

When they fixed it and I paid the actual amount of about $50, they apologised for the error... at which time I remembered something and asked half-heartedly - "doesn't this mean it should have been free?"
The supervisor said yes without hesitation, and offered my money back.
I didn't really care, since I had already paid for it, and it was just $10, but since the supervisor was offering it (instead of the usual resistance you normally get chasing up a refund), I said, okay.
So Ratchet started off being an $80 toy, but ended up being free.

Off topic; That's the scanning policy. Supermarkets are under a bit of auditable scrutiny at the moment because a lot of staff either don't know the policy or refuse to use it. It's company money, not yours; just do your job.
Can you do me a favour (even though I work for Coles lol); do a customer feedback.
https://www.woolworths.com.au/Shop/page/help-and-support-faq?faq_id=40
If you explicitly mention that there was a scanning problem in like "initially the team members didn't offer my item for free, but when questioned the supervisor happily oblidged. This should be second nature and not have to be bought up by the customer" kind of words, that reaches the bosses up top who put the emphasis on how team members should react at all times, especially the customer service manager.
Computers muck up, but they're only as good as the users.

[reillyd]

I had the thing happen with a Ratchet. I didn't know you could assign a quantity to a barcode until I saw it before my eyes. They didn't offer it for free, but I was happy with the $10 final price. It's a REALLY fun toy and so easy to transform (arm articulation sucks though), but I'm still hunting for the soundwave in this Wave that others have sighted

[griffin]

Soundwave is an Alpha (large size) Authentics... and I don't think we have a regular source for them anymore in Australia.
Reject Shop had the large size in last year, which had the 2nd wave Megatron, but if they were being sold off to Reject Shop I'd be surprised if Hasbro were going to bring in more for us to see Soundwave in wave 3.

[griffin]

At Coles Sunnybank on Wednesday, a new issue of the Rescue Bots kids magazine from the UK, but not with free Boulder toy that was supposed to come out this month.
This issue had two random freebie items on the front, which would make it annoying for collectors who are wanting to collect everything.
One was a sticker book in the shape of Heatwave, which I had seen before, so some of these might be random items that get packed in several times over the years.
One free freebie looked nice though, being a nice mini-vehicle 2-pack of Heatwave and Chase. If they were going to have a full set of characters done this way, it would be a nice collection, but would be expensive to have to buy the magazines for them.

Of all the people to get one early... congrats! (Nothing at the local in VIC)

Hehehe, I know right. It's ironic, I'm probably one of the first fans in the world to own it, but it isn't a toy that I'm really really really excited about because I played with it a fair bit at Toyfair in March. I still wanted it, and didn't want to risk missing out on this first release, as I'd then have to wait until September for the regular release if BigW's stock sells out before the sale starts in 2 weeks time.

I'll be there Tuesday and if they have, I'll put one on layby. That way, if they do have stock for the sale, I can buy one to pick up and just cancel my layby.

[Major_K]

I visited a store tonight, and they referred me to a couple of other stores. All told me they have stock in transit that is showing as in store, but it's not actually in store yet. Two told me the stock wouldn't be put out until the day of the sale; I don't think that'll be the case, though. I'm going to keep trying.

[Silverbolt]

There?s 1 SS58 roadbuster and two off road bumblebees at big W Redbank Plains for $29. There are two tf sections in the same toy aisle and road buster was in the end section. Sorry I grabbed the last shatter.

No Skylynx at BIGW Mt Gravatt today, nothing at other stores nearby. I'd say most will wait to put onto shelves till the 18th.

Trying to work out Kidstuff. I have been to two in the last two days and they each have a Prime and Astrotrain's. Is that half a box or something?

Garden City Big W is a lot further along in setting up for the Toy Sale than Carindale. Speaking of Carindale it has clearly had the SS Deluxes but only Road Breaker was left.

A person in store at Garden City told me that the toy sale goes live online on the 16th, ahead of the physical sale on the 18th. I'd be checking for click and collect options on Skylynx first thing on the 16th.

[The Letter M]

I nabbed a Skylynx from Big W Northlakes. There were a few out. Maybe 3? I'm guessing they didn't put all of their stock out at once.

[Major_K]

Maroochydore had them out as well. Looks like the embargo might be breaking? Maroochydore told me the other day they wouldn't be out until the 18th, so check your stores.

Aldi Garden City are sold out of the Authentics Titan Changers already. Either they got them in earlier than yesterday's sale, or were very popular.

I think the Authentic s Titan changers look cheap and nasty

[reillyd]

I think the Authentic s Titan changers look cheap and nasty

They are cheap and nasty: by design. These were intended for low-SES markets in South America (inspect the packaging, you?ll see no contact details for Hasbro US, only South American countries and Australia), to be offered at a much lower price point (e.g. $10) and make them affordable for children. Knowing all of that though, I purchased a set because of their large size and because Starscream and Grimlock are favourite characters of mine. They?re slightly lower quality than the equivalent Cyber Battallion version (which was last year?s Aldi release), but make up for it with their size.

It won?t be to everyone?s taste, but clearly they were selling out quickly. My Aldi looked like it had about 50 of the darn things, and they went quickly.
But unless you like this type of toy, it will be an easy pass and so few will regret not picking one up.

[Jellico]

I am going to regret this...

Big W Garden City has its Studio Series Voyagers and Leaders. Mixmaster, Megatron (1st movie), Jetfire, and Megatron (3rd movie).
No Scrapper 😪


They are at full price and there are lots. So can we try and keep our scalping tendencies under control until next week?

[nalops]

Hopefully still have Jetfire on Thursday. I'd try click and collect but will probably just end up with Megatron, who I already have.

[nalops]

I know Scrapper is in the catalogue but not on the website so I wonder if they'll actually get him in, unless it's towards the end of the sale. If they do get him, that should also mean Sentinel Prime since they're meant to be same wave.

[reillyd]

Big W Robina has Sky lynx x7 in the front left of the store with seasonal toy section (not TF section) for $149 with big anti theft devices. I was able to buy him no issues scanning. Couldn?t take the risk of him selling before the sale and worth the peace of mind

Robina main toy section has Leader Astrotrain and Optimus, plus stacks of grapple stars cream voyagers.

[griffin]

I wonder if BigW stores are just starting to put out the stock because they don't have the room out back and it is close enough to the sale now.


I think the Authentic s Titan changers look cheap and nasty

They aren't meant to appeal to us older collectors... just for the youngens who want a big Transformers toy that is easy to convert and play with. (like the 3 "My First Transformers" from 1986)


I know Scrapper is in the catalogue but not on the website so I wonder if they'll actually get him in, unless it's towards the end of the sale. If they do get him, that should also mean Sentinel Prime since they're meant to be same wave.

It's a tease, but unfortunately they are only ever example images, of what was probably expected to be out at the time of the sale (the catalogues are often "drawn up" weeks before the sale, using images that the suppliers have provided).

[Netero]

At the moment its looking like no scrapper. The Big W store and I work at got our studio series in today and all the voyagers were wave 8. Hoping that we do get wave 9 later in the sale since its extended this time around.

Kawana Shopping Town: There was about 4-5 Sky Lynxs when I arrived, but they were going pretty quickly. Some kid that arrived before all of us had SS Leader Megatron/Jetfire, and there was one more Megatron on the shelf, plus a Long Haul, and a few others I didn’t notice.

They only had one Earthrise Astrotrain, which the same kid got (he had a full trolley of TFs!)

Kmart - The new Netflix Deluxe and Voyagers. The Voyager packs are the same price as regular Voyagers ($49), despite having two Battlemasters in them ($20 worth), and being more expensive in America than normal Voyagers (these are US$40 compared to US$30 for regular Voyagers).
They also had a Cyberverse scout Wheeljack, and price tags for the Rescue Bots mini-racers, which I've never seen at that store.

Well, guess my dreams of a cheap Jetfire were extremely short-lived, unless Big W restock but that seems unlikely, right?

Historically with BigW toy sales, once a store sells out of the bigger items, they don't get anymore in. Generally these things are a one-off purchase/shipment from their toy suppliers, and they all get sent out to stores so that there is nothing left at the main warehouse.

[nalops]

Soooooooooo, dream might be back on. I may have agreed to buy one through FB Marketplace. Had to also buy Energon Omega Supreme........which I don't mind having.....for $139. Movie Strafe was also thrown in.

Gah, I never seem to get there when they have Mixmaster and Astrotrain out.

Ipswich big w has 2 SS mixmasters. They are on a centre aisle stand out the front of the stationary section.

[Akky82]

Netflix at Kmart Aspley (not in the toy section, in the seasonal kind of section behind the registers), wasn't taken by any of the others (esp mirage's matte paint), but picked up Hotlink and walked around the store with him for 5 mins before he grew on me, now he's open and on my shelf and I'm happy (just wish the 2 targetmasters were different moulds for the gun barrels).

[omenchild]

Anyone looking for Earthrise Op? As at the time of posting, there are loads of him and Astrotrain at Myer Indooropilly. They have a toy sale running at the moment, also.

That's actually the fourth wave of Feature Bots, which is the first time that size class has been released in Australia.
Fortunately, the fourth wave is all re-release toys from the first 3 waves, which are difficult to get online... so it just leaves wave 1 Medix to track down.

So with Rescue Bots at Kmart, you can currently get three different versions of the Hoist (aqua) toy.

Yesterday at Kmart Sunnybank Hills - Had the Netflix Voyagers (no Deluxe though), the "reissue" minibots (only the first four), and the new Feature Bot Rescue Bots.

Browns Plains today, looking for five items that are currently out...

Target - they had the two Cyberverse Scouts I was looking for (Ramjet & Deadend), plus the most recent Studio Series Deluxes.

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020tg06.jpg

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020tg07.jpg

Kmart - The reissue Minibots, RB Feature Bots, and just Hound being the only Netflix toy left (those things are surprisingly popular, for being redecos), and a heap of the Cyberverse Spark Armour toys that have been showing up at Kmarts (Cheetor, Optimus, Megatron).

BigW - Absolutely nothing recent to even bother noting. Probably no Skylynx toys either, but I didn't go around the entire store.

Mr Toys Toyworld - Also nothing too recent to note, other than SS-54 VOY Megatron, RB Mini-racers for $9 (Kmart have them for $7).

[reillyd]

For those still hunting the G1 minibot, there is a full set of 4 (one of each character) at Kmart Oxenford (just off the highway).
Looks like someone took 1 of each char.

Also found in the isle behind the transformers isle a large Bumblebee movie style Camaro in the car isle. This might be old news but its not something I?d seen before. It looked fairly cheap plastic body though, so might only be good for kids and not collectors.

[griffin]

Kmart Sunnybank restocked Earthrise Deluxe and Netflix Deluxe, but only wave one of each (Scrapface looked to already be gone). They also got in another tray of the Rescue Bots mini-racers, and like other Kmarts, they got in a lot of the Bumblebee Movie Legion toys for $7 (maybe those hundreds of Legion toys that the Calamvale BigW had, and then suddenly disappeared one week, ended up going back to Hasbro and sent back out to Kmart stores).
Only 3 Vintage Minibots left - one Tailgate and 2 Swerves.

[Silverbolt]

Just picked up SS voyager sentinel prime and scrapper from Big W Ipswich. They scanned at the current sale price. There were an additional 4 sentinel primes, 4 scrappers and 7 mixmasters.

Big W Garden City has 4 Mixmaster, 1(was 2) Sentinel Prime and 1(was also 2) Scrapper. Plus lots of SS and Earthrise Deluxes.

Also a Long Haul in Target as well.

Checked out the city on Wednesday and Carindale/Cannon Hill this morning. No one has restocked yet so the usual mix from the last few weeks.

City restocked SS Voyagers today. Only 2 Mixmasters left after I got the last Sentinal Prime this afternoon. They weren't there when I passed through yesterday afternoon and grabbed the only deluxe Shatter they had.

[griffin]

Stopped by Indooroopilly Westfield today, still looking for some elusive figures (didn't find any though)...

Kmart - All of the Netflix Deluxe and Voyagers were there, and three of the four Reissue Minibots (missing Outback), and all of the different Rescue Bots toys.

Toyworld - all old stuff... nothing worth noting, unless you are looking for some of the older items from 2018-2019.

Got Shatter, Bumblebee, Sentinel, and Scrapper at Orion Target this morning. They had finally restocked. I was in a rush but didn't get a chance to check numbers or check Big W. Target price matched Big W.

When you go to the "Advanced" posting option, does it give you the option of adding an attachment?
I have only recently turned it back on, but it is a lot different system to what it used to be, so the first few people who have tried it have had some issues.

[nalops]

Testing

Edit:- seems to work but has a size limit? Wouldn't accept my original picture of 4mb but it did accept this one of 500kb.

P.s. That photo is by Twitter user @fakeeyes22 and something I want to try with Alternate and Netflix/Leader OP when I finally get them.

Although just realising he used 2 trailer drones which I won't have if I do get Netflix Prime. Oh well, can always substitute some other weapons I guess.

So yea, the attachment thing works but has to be fairly small data-wise. If your photo's too big, you can compress it easily on your phone by posting it on Twitter and saving it again. I'm sure there's an app that'll do it for you but can't be bothered atm :p

Kmart Southport has new Cyberverse 1-steps Blurr and Bludgeon, along with repacks of Wheeljack and Bumbles

[griffin]

I forgot to mention that last Tuesday I stopped in at Garden City to check Kmart and Target. Target has so little, it isn't even worth checking out much lately.

This was Kmart, with no Netflix toys left...

http://toycollectors.com.au/2020km52.jpg


And today at Logan Hyperdome - Kmart had the Cyberverse Deluxe 2nd wave, three different Netflix Deluxe toys left (Hound, Sideswipe and Chromia), and three of the Minibots left (1 Tailgate and 2 Swerves).
http://toycollectors.com.au/2020km53.jpg

http://toycollectors.com.au/2020km54.jpg


BigW at Logan Hyperdome had the latest wave of Studio Series Deluxe and Voyagers (the first time I've seen Sentinel and Scrapper in stores). They also had the new series 5 Botbots 8-packs.
http://toycollectors.com.au/2020bw19.jpg

http://toycollectors.com.au/2020bw20.jpg

Toymate still didn't have anything new since about April... they over-bought a number of Siege assortments back at the start of the year, and they are still clogging the shelves.

And it looks like we lost another Toyworld store, as the one in the Hyperdome is completely gone, and doesn't appear on the Hyperdome's website. After Toymate moved in last year, it was probably expected that one wouldn't last... as the shopping centre was not big enough to support two dedicated toy stores.

[griffin]

Looks like I visited the Kmart at Sunnybank on the same day as those Hyperdome sightings, which had two Netfix Deluxe toys left - Chromia & Sideswipe (nothing else worth noting - and no reissue minibots left).

Yesterday...

Springwood Target - Had the single pack Botbots (Target haven't stocked the single packs before), and "new" Jada licensed vehicles - large size Gen1 Optimus (2-3 times bigger than the one seen at BigW last year) and 1970s Camaro from the 2007 Movie (with collector coin). Both were listed at $49, and are about Voyager sized.
They also had a shelf tag for the Jada Nano packs, which I'm hoping includes the Transformers Gen1 3-pack I've seen online, as I'd be willing to get those (not a fan of the larger ones though).

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020tg10.jpg

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020tg11.jpg

Woolworths at Springwood had both sizes of the regular Authentics. If Woolies are restocking the larger ones, hopefully it means Soundwave shows up here, as Authentics aren't easy to track down from overseas.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020ww02.jpg


And back at Sunnybank, the Reject Shop had the Siege Micromasters that are showing up at other Reject Shop stores, with the third wave pack and two first wave packs that were re-released with them. They also had the small sized Authentics which were a restock as they had the new Ratchet figure.

Which Micromaster packs? The Siege packs at Reject Shop?


Over at Carindale today...

Toyworld (it was a ghost town, and it is a big store) - had the hard-to-find Cyberverse Warrior wave of Cybertronian mode Megatron and Bumblebee, also the second wave of Cyberverse Deluxe (Grimlock, Hotrod), and these Jada licensed vehicles, at two different prices....

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020tw11.jpg


Myer - nothing new, but a butt-load of first wave boxed Earthrise wave 1.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2020m05.jpg


Target - a number of newish Cyberverse toys, plus three different sizes of Jada licensed vehicles.
Large sized Gen1 Optimus & 70s Camaro Bumblebee - $49
Mid sized Gen1 Optimus, 2007 Movie Optimus, 2016 Camaro Bumblebee - $15
"Nano" sized 3-pack of 2007 Movie Optimus & Bumblebee - $15
(one photo is there with a Micrmaster 2-pack to show their size compared to something current)

Back at Garden City, still looking for a couple of small loose ends, which I didn't find...

Kmart - a lot of empty space and pegs. The only new items were Rescue Bots, which were wave 28 of the "Rescan" assortment, which has new figures of Chase dragster and Medix offroad (comes with a re-release of Grimlock, which is a fun toy).

http://toycollectors.com.au/2020km55.jpg

Target - still looked to have the same stock it had last time I was there about 2 weeks ago.

I didn't check the other stores.

[jaydisc]

At Pacific Fair. Nothing too notable besides Rung and wave mate at Target.

I have done the rounds at Carindale. No changes except..

There is now Cyberverse Arcee.

The EB games store at Sunnybank has a MLP Prime on the shelf, and a spare Earthrise Snapdragon and Starscream, after mine arrived today.

If you are looking for stock in a store, I was also told that Zing stores are the ones that will get extra stock (that isn't pre-orders), and EB Games stores are not likely to get much or any (depending on the size of the store).

[nalops]

Makes sense since they'll want to make space for games rather than 'loot'. I imagine the Albert St one would get quite a bit in since it's one of the bigger Zing stores although it's attached to an EB.

[christalcase]

For those few who are looking for Cyberverse Deluxe Arcee, there were none at Sunnybank Kmart and Garden City Kmart. Garden City Big W had one left which I took but they had plenty of the others including Grimlock and Hot Rod.

Hey team, Queensland Health has posted some contact tracing alerts over the past few weeks at Brisbane and surrounds. I know I came pretty close to some of these spots while toy-hunting. It includes a lot of shopping malls.

Yesterday at Garden City, while looking for Slighterfang and CYB scout black Bumblebee at the cheaper retailers, but still failing to find them anywhere.
Found both Target and Kmart had stocked the new Cyberverse Battle Call toys - both size classes. (these are the voice activated electronic toys)
Trooper size - $39 at Kmart, $44 at Target (Bumblebee, Wildwheel, Meteorfire)
Officer size - $69 at both Kmart and Target (Bumblebee, Optimus) (note - these are $100 on the main Toyworld website, but actual stores might vary a little)

Kmart - sold out the Rescue Bots Rescan toys that were just new there 3 weeks ago.

What other Micromaster packs did you see with it? It might have been a repack with a later wave.

Apparently rereleased with Off Road Patrol (Powertrain and Highjump) in Wave 4.

[griffin]

If the Offroad Patrol were also sighted, then that would be a first sighting of that wave... and it would mean a spectacular catchup of all Siege Micromaster toys here, after pretty much only having one of the five waves at most stores here until last month.

[Jellico]

I found Siege Air Strike Patrol and Off Road Patrol at Springfield Mr Toys. $15 each.

Seemed to be most of the missing Siege Patrols. I grabbed the Battle Patrol and Sports Car Patrol. Couldn't see another Battle Patrol. I think Race Car Patrol was there too, but I had enough tiny Autobots.
I checked Carindale a week later but nothing was there.

I haven't found a Slitherfang yet either.

Buranda Target has the battle call Cyberverse bots too. Only Transformers that they have left.

[lambi]

Just the regular ones that have been on the pegs for ages now. These were the first figures I?ve seen in forever that I hadn?t seen before, so I grabbed them, but there were still lots more

No, Reject has Wave 3 which is Race Car Patrol (Roadhandler and Swindler), Battle Patrol (Topshot and Flak) and Sports Car Patrol (Blackjack and Hyperdrive).

[griffin]

Kmart Sunnybank had the new Cyberverse Battle Call toys in, but it looks like someone has already bought one of each, as there was only one of each of the small ones left and a single large Bumblebee left.
They also restocked the Rescue Bots Mini-racers.
No Cyberverse Deluxe or Scouts at all.

Kmart Robina has a full case of Cyberverse Battlecall Troopers - Wildwheel, Meteorstorm, Bumblez

At Logan Hyperdome on Friday...

Kmart - had all of the new Battle Call toys, with security tags on the bigger ones. Also the newest Rescue Bots Rescan figures, and wave 2 Cyberverse Deluxe. They also still had one Netflix toy left - Hound.

http://toycollectors.com.au/2020km58.jpg

Toymate - also got in the new Battle Call toys, at hefty prices - $50 for the small ones, $90 for the larger ones. They also had the wave 2 Cyberverse Deluxe, for $45.

Ah, the kmart is finally open.

The attachments feature here does have a size limit, but I can't seem to get it to automatically resize uploads, because phones these days take photos of extremely excessive size/resolution, that takes up several megabytes, when most of the images I host here for news and sightings only end up being about 100-300 kilobytes. A camera photo being inserted whole would be huge on the screen... so I really need to figure out if we can resize uploads, and not just resize images on the screen (which remain the same memory size).
It also means that images that are several megabytes, use up the total allocate space for uploads on this current server, faster.

The only thing I can recommend for now is changing the setting on the phone to take photos at a lower resolution... but that can be a hassle.

[nalops]

You should be able to resize your photos after through the edit feature on your phone. It's what I do.

[Major_K]

No, Reject has Wave 3 which is Race Car Patrol (Roadhandler and Swindler), Battle Patrol (Topshot and Flak) and Sports Car Patrol (Blackjack and Hyperdrive).

Sorry, I had it wrong. They've been at Mr Toys Morayfield for the last six weeks or so. Not Reject Shop, got them mixed up and thought it was the same wave since they appeared at the same time.

From the last two days...

Sunnybank Kmart - not restocking much lately, except Rescue Bots Rescan and Mini Racers.

http://toycollectors.com.au/2020km59.jpg

Garden City Kmart (this was last night, which was obviously just before they added in some more SS Voyagers) - had the newest wave of Voyagers, Scrapper & Sentinel Prime (well, they were the latest wave, until the next wave was found this morning, a couple posts up).
http://toycollectors.com.au/2020km60.jpg

Garden City Target - nothing new. The website said that they had both of the Cyberverse Multi-packs, but I couldn't find them anywhere in the store, and the staff there couldn't find them.

Garden City BigW - Also had SS Voyager Scrapper and Sentinel Prime... heaps of the 7-pack Ooshies were back, on clearance for $10 (from $15), and Botbots single packs were on clearance at $3 (from $5). It probably means that they have stopped re-ordering the single packs, and with Kmart already stopped selling them, it is now going to be impossible to find these beyond series 4 (and these are not the sort of toy you want to be trying to collect online).

BigW Springwood/Kuraby - Cyberverse 1-step Repugnus was probably the only thing worth noting.

Im assuming a bit here but i seems if stores can get blitzwing and Skipjack, they are getting them in very small quantities.

Big W and Kmart here in Brisbane seems to have Bludgeon? So maybe in Gold Coast too?
