Thanks mate. Went for a drive managed to pickup Long Haul from Kmart. They had about 3 extra ones there for those interested.
Big W Rouse Hill had nothing good. However Target had three The Fallen's and a few other bits and pieces..
Appreciate the heads up!
glad i could help :D

saw 5 of the fallen at rousehill bigw yesterday and two of long haul at stanhope garden kmart.
correction, only 1 long haul left at stanhope, i nabbed one this morning, they had a bunch of grindors if anyone is interested, a bunch of leaders, and deluxes, helmets too.
does anyone have the slighest idea when the next wave will go mass release because im really hanging for the twins and the bikes and a few others too. im suprised target didnt go full swing with new tfs since their sale started.

Was up the coast over the weekend:
- TRU Erina had the first wave of Deluxes and Scouts, plus some leader Megatrons. Also now only have 1x Animated Samurai Prowl, and 2x Waspinator left.
- Target Erina had some Leader Megatrons and a few scouts, but otherwise cleaned out.
- Toyworld Erina had a stack of the new deluxes, Skids, Chromia and Wheelie, all for $27 a pop, plus a whole bunch of FAB's and earlier deluxes (including Sideswipe) all the Voyagers up to the Fallen and even some imported figures, like Encore Jazz, Ironhide and Ratchet, Robot Masters Sideways/Two Face and the Movie Bumblebee that had customisable parts from the first film.

Animated Samurai Prowl and Waspinator at Target Mt Druitt for $29 a pop.
Also had a few Ratchet FAB's, some Classics Inferno's (for $25) some non toy crap, like laptops and walkie talkies, and a heap of scouts and keychains. Completely wiped out of everything else, and no effort has been made to restock the seasonal section that was chock-a-bock with toys pre-sale.

hey tiby did you grab everything? i got one each of the posters, have no room for the standees. Do you think those poster designs would look good on a tshirt?
Tiby
1st August 2009, 11:57 AM
Yeah, I grabbed them to avoid them being chucked, and the Megatron will look great for the Megatron Club!
The three small posters join up into one, but I think they would look good on T-shirts. In fact, my significant other is even thinking of letting me display them publicly!

HobbyCo CBD have wave 3 Legends (Mudflap, The Fallen, Ironhide, Grindor) and wave 1 reships, Scalpel & Duneunner, Long Haul & Grindor. Their prices are fairly high, but hey for $1 over everyone else, I grabbed the Legends I wanted anyway.
They have 3 each of the voyagers and quite a few of each legend & scout.

Nothing but Deluxe preview Soundwaves at Kmart Mt Druitt, plus some FAB's and Leader Megatrons.
$60 Roll Out Optimus Prime from Animated if anyone is interested, the TF section has shrunk significantly, and been shifted further back, no Voyager class figures.
Plumpton Big W has deluxe Soundwaves, some Legends 5 packs and some Jetfire/Jetstorm packs.
Blacktown Kmart has one reverb (left him there, not that nice looking a toy) and a heap of scouts and FAB's, but not one single Deluxe figure. Leaders and Voyagers are around, but you have to hunt for them.

just got back from parramatta.
target has a few blazemasters, dead ends, they had a jolt and ice cream truck twins. NOTE: check your icecream truck twins because i bought it and mudflap, had no head, had to take it back this morn and exchange. you can check by looking where the cab splits and the head is clear as day, but check!
myer and david jones had little to no new stuff. mostly from the first movie
kmart had earlier wave stuff, but most importantly they had about 3 Jetfires and 3 Grindors. they also have the repaint of the motorbike from the first wave, looks good in that paint but i didnt get him since i got the origional.
anyone seen more skids, chromia, wheelie or dunerunner out west?

Neil, I am out that way for Uni, did you want anything in particular, I can go have a look on my way home tomorrow if you like. It's a long train trip otherwise.
Penrith TRU have moved all their TF stock around again, they have been pushed back into the secondary boys aisle, rather than having half of the prime aisle (and the promotional area at the front of the store)
They had a couple of Blazemaster's, Jolts and a single Wheelie, Chromia, Dead End (took the other one) and Sideways. All $25 which is about the best non-sale deluxe price I have seen.
Also had all the wave 1 and 2 scouts, plus a scalpel and 3 reverbs, plus all the voyagers barring the Fallen (and only one Long Haul)
Oh and anyone after Deep Space Starscream, Penrith TRU has them for $50 a pop still, had at least 3.

Plumpton Big W seems to have given up on stock, they had the $10 generic Transformers on the end cap, with the remaining movie deluxes they had (Soundwave x6).
But they did have 2x Grindor, 1x Fallen (first time I have seen him) and 1 x Long Haul, as well as the Animated story pillow (for $21!) and a single Animated Waspinator and Samurai Prowl on the other side of the TF shelf (with all the DBZ figures).

21st August 2009, 05:16 PM
i think stores are doing the same mistake they did with the first movie and ordering stock based on the previous line. i read somewhere that cybertron didnt sell so well, so shops only ordered movie toys based on cybertron sales.
now, dont quote me on this, but animated havnt sold so well because there are alot of shelf warmers just hanging around, so they've only ordered ROTF stuff based on those sales.
grrr i really hate hunting down stuff but its so rewarding once you get it hahaha
stratospher is real awesome, and the alternate leg configuration i "came up" with does him great justic, check the discussion forum for details on that ill post soon

A bunch RPMs, also AT TRU for $8 a pop, and two packs at Myer for $23. Can someone explain to me what makes two RPMs worth $23? I'm at a loss to see what makes them any different to Hot Wheels.

i dropped into parra westfields today after uni, i managed to pick up the last chromia from myer. other than that, parra seems the place to be if you want to pick up long haul, grindor, or the 2 set with the repaints of blackout and wreckage. they are in mass quantities spread out over the various tf selling stores.
my gf picked up arcee for me, cant remember where she said it was from but it was the last one.
its been a good week for me, arcee and chromia, are fantastic figures and pics and reviews really dont give it justice, but then again i have a thing for the odd looking bots, so highly recommended but only if that style of bot is your thing.

if you want Arcee or Chromia go to uncle petes in cambletown.
they have the Arcee is up on the rack and Chromia in the back storage.
ask the person to check the back for you.
i went there looking for Wheelie after uni once (who'd have thought going to 2 UWS campuses could be so handy hahaha) and the guy who was going to put it on hold for me said, they got everything except wheelie.
they also go the desert attack skorpinok or what ever its called. i have the origional and prefer that color ap, but this one is definatly worth picking up if you missed it first time around.

I spoke to the manager at TRU Wollongong and they had a rep down they other day to see if their assortments had come through, which appeared to be primarily RPMs, sadly.
The rep mentioned that different assortments were going to KMart, Target etc, rather than the same assortments everywhere.

was was with my misses at that expo last night next to the SCG, grown ups should know what im talkin about...anyhow suprisingly enough, transformers had their own little representation. there was a stand selling tf key rings with movie megatron, optimus and bumblebee heads, zippo lighters with autobot and decepticon engravings, insignia cufflinks, autobot ring, belt buckle, even barricade figures!
so anyone game enough to head out there if you look around you'll see it, bottom shelf of a revolving glass cabinette in front of a stall. dont remember exactly which stall though.
well there you go, of all things to see there, tf stuff was there too! :D
be warned though, for what the stuff is, price is a bit steep, didnt pick up any though.

So weird! I was in Blacktown Big W on Wednesday and they had Combiner Class* Devvie advertised for $168! I'm gonna check again today; really tempted to get it for a 2 digit price.
Edit: nvm, just saw this (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=6156) :)

*I'm trying to get myself out of the habit of referring to this toy as "Supreme Class"; on Wednesday I just noticed that the box calls it "Combiner Class."

As I mentioned in the Target sale thread, Target have also dropped their Devastator sale price to $97 so you can also look there if you're having a hard time. We still had about 4 at my Target when I was working on Sunday. The sale continues to this Sunday.

Myer Blacktown has ROTF Leader Primes and TF1 Voyager Starscreams and Ratchet. They also had Ramjet. The lenticular (tech specs?) card looked interesting... something that Takara did 10 years ago (re: Beast Wars Metals) of course (GG). I wish Hasbro would make tech spec cards a standard practice. <sigh> Anyway, aside from that Ramjet didn't really interest me, but he's there if anyone's looking.
Also checked out the new Blacktown Uncle Petes Toys. Ex-pen-sive! :o I also spotted TF shorts at Jayjays Blacktown.
