SA Transformers Sightings.

[griffin]

Post here anything Transformers related (toys, merch, etc) you find in a SOUTH AUSTRALIA retail store.
Please try to include the price, and if it isn't a limited item, please mention the location.

[Gutsman Heavy]

found some Universe Swipes & "Silver"streaks at Big W (blue tinted windows btw Robzy) and a price hike to $25+ (from $23.84)

[Gutsman Heavy]

There was one Ironhide at Big W and some more Streaks. First time I'd seen ol' Iron balls in the flesh.

[Robzy]

Spotted heaps of Galvatron/Ironhide/Acid Storm/Bluestreak/Sideswipe figures today at several Kmarts, along with ridiculous amounts of Animated figures - which don't seem to be moving!

[SofaMan]

Finally found some Wave 4 Animated at a Big W - Arndale in this case. EG Bumblebee, Sentinel Prime and Swoop for $23.88.

[loophole]

Finally found some Wave 4 Animated at a Big W - Arndale in this case. EG Bumblebee, Sentinel Prime and Swoop for $23.88.

wow:eek: im surprised Big W actually has any TFA deluxes, that must be a first:p

[SofaMan]

Yes, they have actually done a modest restock. I was quite surprised.

[Robzy]

Spotted the new Animated Activators... Cliffjumper, Megatron, Grimlock etc...

[Gutsman Heavy]

awesome, I need me some cliffy

[loophole]

Spotted the new Animated Activators... Cliffjumper, Megatron, Grimlock etc...

i found them too for the low low price of $18 each instead of certain other places overpricing their activators...

[SofaMan]

Hey Robzy - did you say in another thread that you'd seen something new recently? :)

[Robzy]

Don't think so! :confused: I was hunting for Cyclonus but still haven't found him. Looks like the next wave of Animated is appearing interstate though... hopefully they'll start to show up this week :)

[Gutsman Heavy]

Animated Safeguard packs are now at Big W $29.84

[loophole]

Spotted Animated Blur, Swindle and Waspinator at Toyworld Mt. Barker also went to Marion today and checked out Big W, Kmart and Target but didnt have anything new.

[Robzy]

Animated Safeguard packs are now at Big W $29.84Hmmm... at that price, it's almost tempting!


Spotted Animated Blur, Swindle and Waspinator at Toyworld Cool! Can't wait to get these!

[Robzy]

Finally... spotted some new stuff!

Today I found the following:

UNIVERSE
Dinobot
Cheetor
Starscream (G1 accurate colours)
Smokescreen

ANIMATED
Blurr
Swindle
Legends Optimus Prime

I'm gonna wait though, cos they were a little over-priced! Also, sadly no Cyclonus! :(

[Gutsman Heavy]

[Robzy]

It's a secret! ;)

PM sent :p

[loophole]

[Gutsman Heavy]

That's it, now I'm really pissed off! WHY CAN"T I FIND THESE! *sob*

[Pipesqueak]

I'm yet to see hound or cyclonus either, but some toyworlds have the new animated deluxes and the one in town has all the other new universe stuff.

I'm also yet to see the new g1 legends - brawn, bumblebee, beachcomber - have they reached sa yet?

[loophole]

I'm also yet to see the new g1 legends - brawn, bumblebee, beachcomber - have they reached sa yet?

[Vector Sigma 13]

Found some new Universe figures at my local Big W. Hound, Cheetor and Starscream. No Bl%$dy Cyclonus unfortunately.

[Robzy]

I found Samurai Prowl, Blurr, Waspinator, and Leo Prime today (sadly, no Inferno)

[loophole]

Do you mean Samurai Prowl? Was it in the city?

[Robzy]

[Robzy]

Spotted (and bought) Universe Legends Bumblebee, Beachcomber and Animated Starscream, as well as Universe Hound!

[Gutsman Heavy]

[Robzy]

As for the Universe Legends... there are still more of those exact same figures at a specific location (PM me if you want)!

[TheFallen]

Hello

[loophole]

[TheFallen]

Hello and welcome Raider

Thank You Loophole

[Robzy]

Today I also spotted Universe Hound, Cheetor, & "G1" Starscream at Kmart. Finally the biggies are starting to get these things in! (Still no freakin' Cyclonus though... :mad:)

[rampagesss]

Anyone seen Animated Shockwave? or does anyone know if / when its out?

[TheFallen]

Welcome Raider :) Yes, I have found the Legends.

Today I also spotted Universe Hound, Cheetor, & "G1" Starscream at Kmart. Finally the biggies are starting to get these things in! (Still no freakin' Cyclonus though... :mad:)

Would you like to share with me where you found the Legends and if they are still there? :)

[SofaMan]

Nothing new at BigW Arndale this afternoon. :(

[Robzy]

...

Nothing new today at Big W Golden Grove, TTP, or Parabanks!



Would you like to share with me where you found the Legends and if they are still there? :)Toys R Us TTP - there were more there when I originally posted it (last Sunday).

[Gutsman Heavy]

Toys R Us TTP - there were more there when I originally posted it (last Sunday).

sweet, if theres any left I'll mab them tomorrow!

[TheFallen]

Found Smokescreen and Cyclonus today. Bought Smokescreen and left Cyclonus because I already have him so he is still there if anyone wants it.

They also had the 2 Gestalts, Inferno, Hound, the Special Editions and Masterpiece Starscream (many), plus many more. Still no legends though.

If any one wants the location PM me. I don't want to give the location out on the forum because this store is my go to store to find most of what I need :)

[Robzy]

Checked out all the stores at TTP today... Nothing new (but I did do some "tidying" :p)

[Gutsman Heavy]

heh, quite disappointing wasn't it?

1x Cheetor at Big W Elizabeth

crap loads of movie Big Daddy at Target Elizabeth, $21.59 after discount.

[Vector Sigma 13]

Robsy have you got cyclonus yet?

Even the Big W up here has restocked after i initially cleaned them out...

At $23.88 ya cant go wrong- K-mart Mildura had $29.00 on them!

[Gutsman Heavy]

23.88? damn thats good, hell I'd pay 29. if any bastard had them in stock!

[SofaMan]

Target Sefton Park had nothing except Butter Ratchet. :mad:

I'm finding myself needing to post non-sightings out of sheer frustration.

[Robzy]

Robsy have you got cyclonus yet?No, sadly - can't find him anywhere!


23.88? damn thats good, hell I'd pay 29. if any bastard had them in stock!Maybe we should do a group order from Vector Sigma!


I'm finding myself needing to post non-sightings out of sheer frustration.Right on the money! It's ticking me right orf too! :mad:

[Vector Sigma 13]

Well sing out if you want anything- i know people that are going to Adelaide all the time and i could probably get someone to drop them off so there would be no post cost.

My source at Toyworld mentioned something the other week that was of interest. He said that they were really struggling to get any Transformers in and that he was told they just arent making as many. Perhaps there is some truth in this?

[TheFallen]

Maybe it is because I am new here that no one is reading my posts but I have had no trouble finding Cyclonus in the stores I have been to. There were 2 in the last store I went to so if any one wants to know the location just PM me.

I am willing to help this community as much as I can

Maybe you can share with me the location of the new legends? :)

[Robzy]

I dont think any of the SA guys are like that Raider- nothing to hide here!:)

It was my attempt at humour and it didn't come off well

I hope it wasn't taken the wrong way

I read your post about nothing in Big W and completely missed the reply to my question

Sorry about that :o

[Vector Sigma 13]

Went into my local toy world today and was greeted with:

Hi Tim look what we have just unpacked!

The nice lady presented the following:

Universe Inferno
Universe Lio Prime
Both Universe combiners (Restock)
Megs and Prime special editions (Restock)
Animated Waspinator, Blur, Samarui Prowl

And 1 Hasbro Masterpiece Starscream which i proudly put on laybuy (pretty good price i thought too!).

[TheFallen]

Found many Classics 1.0 Prime and Jetfire today

[Robzy]

Finally spotted Universe Inferno today - he is awesome! Would have bought him if I hadn't already spent too much money on other stuff.

Spotted some other stuff too, which I will post about shortly!

[Vector Sigma 13]

I gave in and put him on laybuy yesterday.

[Gutsman Heavy]

I found NOTHING today

*sob*

[Robzy]

I found nothing new at Kmart either... Great sale - 20% off nothing! :rolleyes:

I have, however, spotted Henkei Cyclonus if anyone's interested!

[SGB]

I have, however, spotted Henkei Cyclonus if anyone's interested!
I'm not in SA, but I'm interested in getting that Henkei Cyclonus. How much was it being sold for?

[rampagesss]

Yea Toy World didn't have much new, I found Cyclonus and Starscream in G1 colors hidden under a shelf. I bought both even though ive got henkei cyclonus, but hey doesn't hurt to have both :D

But can't find Waspinator anywhere :mad:

[Gutsman Heavy]

Try toy world in the CBD, they had two at the meet. And SAM' Prowl

[Robzy]

I'm not in SA, but I'm interested in getting that Henkei Cyclonus. How much was it being sold for?If it's still there, I think it was about $45 :)

[SGB]

If it's still there, I think it was about $45 :)
That's not a bad price in the current economic climate.

Just sent you a PM. ;)

[Robzy]

Went back to Kmart Firle after "tidying" a couple of days ago. All they had re-stocked was a few Legends! :rolleyes: There are SOOOOOO many empty pegs and shelves there, surely they must have SOME new stock....??? :confused:

[TheFallen]

I haven't seen many restocks lately either. Maybe they are holding off for the ROTF figs which will be hitting soon

I hope they have a restock before the movie figs hit because I still haven't found the Legends

[Robzy]

Spotted (and bought (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showpost.php?p=88596&postcount=179)) Universe Inferno and Animated Legends Optimus Prime and Prowl.

[Pipesqueak]

Robzy, where did u see inferno and were there any more?

[Vector Sigma 13]

I grabbed inferno when i had the chance- sources tell me that there may be less stock floating around that in previously released waves so i wasnt going to miss out!

Inferno is pretty spunky too! IMO

[loophole]

was at Big W on cross roads and they have restocked!! they have new universe figures including multiple Cyclonus, Hound, Starscream and Cheetor.

Animated stuff most of the deluxes were already gone by the look of it but had voyagers of Grimlock, Prime etc

and the legend packs "rival air assault" and "special team leaders"

[Gutsman Heavy]

Myer TTP has several Hounds & Cheetors at $29.95 and Swindle & Blazing Lockdown at $39.95 :( and activators Cliffjumper, Bandit Lockdown among others for $19.95 :(

[Pipesqueak]

Target Castle Plaza has yellow Ratchet and Stealth Lockdown packs plus lots of Supreme Ops.

[rampagesss]

Target Castle Plaza has yellow Ratchet and Stealth Lockdown packs plus lots of Supreme Ops.

Yea Target at TTP has Ratchet and Stealth Lockdown as well

[SofaMan]

Finally! Cyclonus, Hound and Starscream at BigW Arndale.

Except now there's only Starscream. :o

[Robzy]

Robzy, where did u see inferno and were there any more?
Toyworld. There was only 1 there, which I bought.

My advice to everyone re Inferno... grab him while you can! :(

[Gutsman Heavy]

I would heed Robzys warning there, especially in regards to pre-movie voyagers which wont be seeing much of a release, if at all here! There's a chance they will pop up after the movie run, but its not worth the risk IMO, grab them while you can!

[Robzy]

Sadly, nothing at either Kmart Firle or Target Newton! :rolleyes:

[rampagesss]

Couldn't believe my luck today went into cheap as chips at TTPlus for a frame, then looking at the toys found the last 3, 3" Titanium figures i needed to complete the set. Found Predaking, Grimlock and Scorponok. I know there old but hey i finally found them :D

They also had some pritty cool Knock Off transformers

[Tropisetron]

Hey.... TRU is selling TFA Jetfire (the twin combiner?) for 29.99 if anyone is interested. AUD10 off!

[Vector Sigma 13]

Hey Tropisetron welcome back! Havent heard from you in ages!

[Tropisetron]

Hey hey!

Well has always been here and there. Finally finished exam in december and had a long holiday.
SO back in Adelaide to finish off my final yr.... Might catch up with you all during the fair...that's if i'm going... might be busy...sigh

[Robzy]

Hey Tropisetron - good to hear from ya! :)

Sadly, nothing at Ingle Farm today! :(

[Robzy]

Spotted heaps of Cyclonus, Hound, Cheetor & Starscream figures at Big W today.

[Gutsman Heavy]

please let it be Golden Grove or TTP. PWEASE ROBZY!

[genechan]

please let it be Golden Grove or TTP. PWEASE ROBZY!

Golden Grove? Probably not lol...they are bad with their TF stock.
I did see Hound at BigW in Marion - I squealed lol. But yeah Toys R Us in the city has Smokescreen.

[Robzy]

please let it be Golden Grove or TTP. PWEASE ROBZY!You're in luck Gutsman - they were at TTP!

[genechan]

Woo~ looks like I will be paying a visit tomorrow ;)

[Vector Sigma 13]

Welcome bach Gene- long time no see!

[genechan]

Welcome bach Gene- long time no see!

Thanks~ have been taking a break (or more like been a bit busy ;)) but i am back 8D

[Gutsman Heavy]

Thank you Robzy, still one Hound left, 2 Screamers, 2 (maybe 3) Cyclonus and 1 Cheetor.

Hounds cool as, but I cant get the cannon thing to stay on his shoulder properly :(

[Robzy]

No probs! :)

Yeah, I think Hound's shoulder cannon doesn't sit properly - I've got both the Universe and the Henkei version, and they both have the same problem. I think you just have to gently fiddle with it a bit, and you should be able to line it up to sit straighter, but not as securely as it's supposed to!

[Vector Sigma 13]

My Hounds the same- frustrates the s%$t out of me!

[TheFallen]

I just use his tires to hold it in the position I want it

Its not the perfect solution but it does a good enough job

[genechan]

If anyone spots a Samurai Prowl, PLEASE let me know :3

[Robzy]

If anyone spots a Samurai Prowl, PLEASE let me know :3
I know we spotted him at the last Meet we had... at Toyworld in the city - that was a month ago, but I'm sure they're still out there!

[genechan]

goddamnit, that would be right lol!!

I will be keeping an eye out for him then :3

[Robzy]

I was in town today, so I stopped in at Toyworld and TRU... nothing!

No, really... NOTHING! :mad::rolleyes:

[Robzy]

Nothing much at Kmart Ingle Farm or Toyworld Norwood!

Big W Cumberland Park, however, had heaps on new Universe figures... including the good ones! ;)

[TheFallen]

Did the happen to have the Universe legends?

[Robzy]

Did the happen to have the Universe legends?

Not the new, new ones. They only had Hound, Jazz, Megatron, Red Alert, etc...

Apart from that one time I saw them at TRU, I haven't found the new waves of Legends anywhere either!

[Robzy]

No Universe Legends, but I did spot the Animated Legends today... Optimus Prime, Bumblebee & Prowl at Kmart Munno Para!

[Gutsman Heavy]

K-mart TTP has finally restocked with Cyclonus, Dinobot, Smokescreen, Cheetor etc
and Animated Legends.

Big W TTP has the Cliffjumper activator wave.

Target TTP has Universe Ultras for $27.99 and voyagers for $19.99!

Target TTP has Universe Ultras for $27.99 and voyagers for $19.99!
Snap! I saw all those today too... the $28 Ultras tempted me, as did the Safeguard special at Big W, but I resisted both! :o

Nothing new at TRU TTP at all!!!

[Robzy]

Todays sightings...

TTP:
Big W: Animated Swindle & Blurr (I picked up one set) - cheapest price... only $23.89
Kmart: Animated Legends, Swindle, Blurr, Cyclonus, Dinobot

[Robzy]

Animated Swindle plus Universe Dinobot, Hound & Smokescreen at Kmart Firle!

[genechan]

I took a trip to TTP today. TRU have a real nice TF section...totally beats the one in the city!!!!!!! Same goes for the Target there.

TTP TRU would be good if you are wanting Animated stuff, there isn't much with Universe :S But it still has a nice range.

Target have good amount of Universe and Animated stuff. If you want Voyager Class stuff - get it by Wednesday! I just got Inferno for 25$, and they have quite a bit of him in stock too ;)

[loophole]

:eek::eek::eek::eek: i wish i knew earlier i would driven down especially for that oh well i will defientally try tomorrow after work

[Gutsman Heavy]

Got me an Inferno thats to genechan! Plenty left.

Even at $25 Leo Prime stayed on the shelf!

[genechan]

No problems xDD Inferno is nice - easy transformation too :)

[Robzy]

Cool! Bargain price! :eek:


I took a trip to TTP today. TRU have a real nice TF section...totally beats the one in the city!!!!!!! Same goes for the Target there.
I was down at TTP today as well, but I didn't go in to Target (their toy section usually sux! Obviously it's been re-stocked, and of course I didn't go in there! :rolleyes:)

TRU didn't have any new stuff tho, which is still disappointing! Big W was fairly empty, Kmart's shelves were just about EMPTY (:mad:), and Myer didn't have a lot either - even their TMNT reissues were completely gone!

The only pleasing part of my trip to TTP today was that they had a Star Wars Fan Club there... they had characters walking around the centre... there were Storm Troopers, Scout Troopers, Jedis, The Emperor, and 2 guys there that were 7-foot-tall each... one dressed as Chewbacca and the other as Darth Vader (Man - those guys were friggin tall!!! :eek::eek:)

LOL saw them, I know two of them from other stuff. The Chewwy was on stilts xD they would have given him another foot or so of height. Oh yeah, if u wanna see them, my friend told me that they will be at Marion next Sunday.

[Robzy]

LOL saw them, I know two of them from other stuff. The Chewwy was on stilts xD they would have given him another foot or so of height. :eek: Wow... that must be hard to walk around in that suit on stilts!

The Darth Vader guy was a giant! :o

[genechan]

:eek: Wow... that must be hard to walk around in that suit on stilts!

The Darth Vader guy was a giant! :o

Oh yeah he was so tall LOL

but yeah, the Chewy, blimey...xD Did you hear him make Chewys roar noise (have no idea what to call it xD)?

[Robzy]

Did you hear him make Chewys roar noise (have no idea what to call it xD)?Yes I did actually... was that him making the noise? I just assumed he had some pre-recorded sound FX playing from inside his costume somewhere! Man, that was a pretty damn good impersonation!

[loophole]

hmmm... i might have to make a trip to marion on sunday to see this for myself, and maybe look for a cheap universe inferno while im there

[TheFallen]

For anyone still after Universe Cyclonus and Hound, there are a crap load at Elizabeth Target

They also had the new Voyagers, Universe Inferno, Leo Sayer or something (isn't that the singer?:) )

[Robzy]

They also had the new Voyagers, Universe Inferno, Leo Sayer or something (isn't that the singer?:) )
That's brilliant! LMAO!!!

[Vector Sigma 13]

The word on the street is that theres a lot of clearance stock on its way out at good prices- Keep your eyes peeled! Ive crossed two states in as many days and seen a lot of stuff that i thought i would never see again on shelves!

[TheFallen]

That's brilliant! LMAO!!!
http://i280.photobucket.com/albums/kk199/sunglikeahorse/laughingsmiley.gif

Yay, I made someone laugh :D

Kmart Mildura has: a bucket load of Animated figures including Soundwave and Dinobots etc. At the not so good price of $28.99.

[loophole]

Spotted a couple of the new legends at my local toyworld there were Beachcomber, Brawn, Animated Starscream and a Bumblebee not sure which one didnt really look that hard.

[TheFallen]

Spotted a couple of the new legends at my local toyworld there were Beachcomber, Brawn, Animated Starscream and a Bumblebee not sure which one didnt really look that hard.

Finally these are starting to hit. The Legends are all that I need, aswell as Ratchet, until this line goes on hiatus

[Robzy]

Cool... Brawn's the only Legend I haven't seen yet (and obviously the only one I haven't bought).

[damnyouhussies]

ToyWorld Munno-Parra has of the other day

the repaint universe jetfire - treadbolt? 35$
the repaint powerglide - stormcloud perhaps? 45$

as well as some run of the mill universe/animated shelf warmers.

[Robzy]

Nothing "new" at Kmart Firle... just Cyclonus, Smokescreen, Cheetor, Hound, Dinobot & heaps of Animated Legends!

[Tropisetron]

Anymore TFA ulta magnus leader in Firle, Robz?

How much were they?

[Robzy]

I'm pretty sure I saw a few Ultra Magnus figs there... I wasn't looking to be honest! If I can get back there in the next day or so, I'll let you know (as well as price).

[loophole]

Boxed Action Masters, some Pretenders and a really really nice G1 Shockwave with no hose cracks :eek:

[Robzy]

Nothing new at Target Castle Plaza! Very empty shelves!!! :rolleyes:

[Vector Sigma 13]

Same here, Big W has move its Transformers (whats left anyway) around and im expecting thats how it will be until the "Fallen" figures arrive. They did have a couple of 07 movie toys reduced but not enough for me too buy them.

[Robzy]

Spotted the Universe & Animated Legends at Coles of all places! (They had Bumblebee, Brawn & Beachcomber). They were about $8.99 each I think... so go buy some bread, milk, and a Bee!

[Tropisetron]

Got a Animated Leader Ultra Magnus at Kmart Firle for AUD39!!!

YES! My wait was well worth it.

THere's still at least x6 UM, x2 Bulkhead and x1 Megatron.

[damnyouhussies]

Animated waspinator and samurai Prowl at Toys R US TTP. 29$ or so.

[Robzy]

Spotted plenty of Animated UMs at Kmart Firle for the $39 price... Lots of Universe DLX figs there too! (almost the same price :rolleyes:)

Revenge has hit the Riverland! Big W had a Sh*t load of ROTF including:

Legends (Prime, Jetfire, Springer),
Scouts (cant bloody remember),
Deluxes (Sideswipe, Sideways, Breakaway and Scrapper) ,
Voyager (Prime, Demolisher and Ironhide)
and
Leader class figures Megatron and Prime).
Gravitybots and Powerbots also of various incarnations.
Oh- and Voice changer BB mask and blaster.

I put leader Megs and Prime on layby because they look sweeeeeeeeeeeeetttttttttt! Took home Sideswipe and stuck Sideways on layby too.

I forgot too- none of the items i scanned would read- the lady said that they didnt read because they werent meant to be on the shelves yet!

Godammit I love this time of year. We only get it every 18 months or so, but there's a special thrill when a new toyline first hits the shelves. New waves are great, but a whole new toyline is better. Even after 25 years, you can't beat it. :D

Target has 15% off all of them, but the Leaders are still cheaper at Kmart ($79). Big W's prices are going to be the best, but Target's and Kmarts are better while their sales are on at the moment.

Big W, Target, Kmart TTP - EVERYTHING! All the new figures are there.

Myer and TRU TTP had absolutely no new figures at all :rolleyes:

After driving all the way to the port, turns out animated shockwaves of the purple variety have appeared at Kmart Munno Parram right near me.
They also have a few sunstorms. $50 a piece.



Toyworld in the same shopping centre has treadbolts and decepticon repaints of powerglide still for 35 and 45 respectivly.

Ive got my Mudflap now guys- actually i now have three in my possession:confused:

Tropisetron and i had organised for him to grab a Mudflap and Ravage for me at the Big W toy sales as i had my doubts my local was going to stock them.

Then today to my surprise i arrived home to find Ravage , Mudflap and cannon BB on my desk- my missus certainly knows my weakness). SOOOOOOOO my eldest son gets one Mudflap when the new bubs arrives (hopefully to avoid some newborn jealousy), one Mudflap and Ravage for me and then one of each for emergency prezzies.

UNLESS one of you guys are after one or the other, in which case i would be willing to surrender it for a noble cause!

[Robzy]

Spotted Gutsman Heavy and Tropisetron at the Big W midnight sale last night (but I didn't buy them cos they weren't on special!) :p

We did however see lots of new stuff, which btw was ALL GONE today when I went back! Glad I went last night!!!
