Possibly, as the only Toyworld store close to me is Kiama (30mins away) but I'm not sure if it'd be participating; I might have to se if Uncle Pete's is mirroring this effort...

Cheers for the suggestion dude. :)

Hi Hursticon,

The toyworld up here had a large amount of stock of Kreo up here. Sentinel was only $20. Prime was $30 and the other models were $10.

If you get stuck let me know, I am more than happy to help out mate.

So I assume Kreh80 will pickup Sentinel Prime for you? I called my Toyworld which is a fair distance away and the worker there said the SP set was $30, but I think she meant Optimus Prime instead as she wasn't sure and I said fire truck but she said 'yeah we got the truck which is $30'. Lemme know asap if you can as I might go have a look myself tomorrow noon.

Hey man, sorry that I couldn't respond to your SMS; I was stuck in Sydney all day at an Eye Specialist and didn't have any credit anyway. :(

Kreo Optimus prime (big one) is $30 at toyworld, just saw the catalogue.
Is there someone from NSW close to a toyworld that can bring this to the next parra fair? If not, shipping would be ok. Just need them to inspect everything is in the box. Saw too many ripped boxes.

Came across these clearances at my local Big W store (Dapto), I'm not sure if this is Nation-wide or not but one thing is for sure - "Transformers" as a Toy brand looks set to disappear from my local store as only the

TF: Prime - Deluxes
TF: Prime - Legions
Botshots - Individual & Multi-packs
TF: Prime - Legion Vehicles

...weren't marked for clearance which comprised 4 pegs & a sole shelf spot :o:

While that sticker is underneath a TF:Prime Voyager, it does seem to indicate that it only applies to TF3 MechTech Voyagers…. Big W started a large clearance across all toys last Friday. I got same great Lego deals online in the first hour… didn't last long.

Which (Though I probably should've noted the tags down in hind-sight) makes this all the more baffling as the store hasn't had a DOTM Voyager on its shelves for almost 6 or so months... :confused:
Clearly someone just saw the word "Voyager" in the TF: Prime code and just whacked the clearance label under it anyway, that's going to piss-off the odd parent who goes to buy a TF: Prime Voyager then. :eek::o

If the Toyworld near my place is still holding that $30 price tag I can likely nab one for you as there were heaps left just last week. Postage might be a bit of a pain given the awkward box dimensions, though if you're happy to do without the box it can be less.

It's common that Kmart's first step in clearing an item is to put a clearance tag on it for the same price. It means price reductions are coming, but just haven't happened yet.

Toyworld catalogue out at the moment only has three clearance items, and they are only Kre-O, so no point making it a news topic.
Kreo Optimus - $30
Kreo Megatron - $20
Kreo Sentinel - $20

The catalogue goes until October 5th, but these are likely to be their new prices until they clear them out.

Not a clearance price... the TFPrime Optimus Maximus is at Kmart for $29. BigW initially had theirs for $48, but it sounds like some stores (maybe all) are now charging $28 to compete with Kmart's new low price.

Just saw today at Coles Sunnybank, a staffer changing the price tags on the Hasbro Christmas Pallet. The TFPrime Cmdrs are now $11.50 (a decent price now, but just wave 1), and the Star Wars Class 1 are now $10.
The other toys on the case were probably cheaper too (because they probably weren't selling at those over-inflated prices).

Kmart have put on clearance, their OLD BotShots single-packs - $5, down from $7.

However, in some stores they have removed all the $7 tags, and not put up new $7 tags for the second series BotShots toys.
As such, the new ones are still scanning up as $7, but all the shelf-tags are saying $5... AND, in most Kmart stores, all of the BotShots are on the same pegs (old and new).
This is going to cause confusion by parents or even collectors, who buy a new one thinking it is $5... but when they try to buy it, it will come up as "BotShots Brawler" for $7.

Until this is corrected, or they sell out all the old ones (in some stores there are more old ones than new ones), they could honour the $5 price if your store doesn't have them separated and having $7 tags on the new ones... or they can legally refuse to sell the item until they get it sorted out.

That shows the line is being wound up here, as Kmart was the best source for Generations DLX & Legends. When things go on Clearance at Kmart, it means they aren't re-stocking it anymore.
I wonder who's getting the Wreckers wave then, as we are still supposed to be getting them.

Kmart Sunnybank has the NEW Botshots 3-packs on Clearance fore $12... BUT, still have the old 3-packs on Clearance for $15.

I double-checked this with the price scanner. It doesn't make sense, as the new 3-packs shouldn't be a cancelled line already, after just one month and one wave.
And why would they be cheaper than the older ones that were already on Clearance.

Good news for anyone wanting the new 3-packs I guess.

That's really quick. Clearing/ending BotShots just a couple months after stocking them. With no Generations, and the last Beast Hunters toys released by July (globally), it doesn't leave much for the Brand in Australia for 2013.

It's a fairly accurate reflection on their popularity. It is a shame, because the concept is awesome, execution pretty good, the rock/paper/scissors game behind it is simple but easy to understand. The price will be what killed the line. Cannot blame the stores for cutting and running from the line when they still cannot get rid of old stock at reduced prices.

Combined with the Prime toys, I wonder how badly this will hurt the chances of future lines getting stocked here, especially with limited support from a television show that less than 15% of households have access to.

In general I find the Kre-O sets and Construct-Bots are way over priced. I don't really have a lot of interest myself in the construct-bots (I've bought one or two here and there only to see what they are like) my interest is so low, I didn't even give their Botcon display more than a passing glance. Compared to the Generations display that I took a massive amount of photos of.

Epic Optimus Prime (non-transformable) at Big W. $30 (was $48).

Are those the ugly looking ones when they came out people thought they were knock-offs and apparently the stores thought they were good stock so they put them in the stores? Because if it's those ones you're talking about then they are also at clearance at Kmart. Didn't look at the price but all I know is that the stores really do like stocking up on stock that no one wants :(

Coles seems to be clearing Transformers Kreos. Saw these at Coles in Burwood One in Melbourne. Kreo combiners $11.20 each. Saw Computron, Superion, Menasor and Bruticus. Small individual blind packs were $2.80, custom Kreos were $7ish and they also had the Legends sized figs for $4.80. Think these prices are what I saw but was busy thinking about the grocery basket so some prices could be a slight bit off. Not sure if this wil be available at all stores as this Coles is one of those larger ones which also stock a large range of clothes, electrical and toys.

While Myer at Garden City had individual Clearance pricetags on their Movie Kreo and Construct-Bots boxes of various odd-dollar amounts... so could be a store-by-store thing.


Either way, most stores are, or will be, slashing prices on their Movie and 2014 toys to clear the shelves, leading up to the mass release of 2015 GEN and RID toys around February-March.

The RID big 3-step Optimus is on clearance already at Kmart, which is their way of saying that an item is not going to be restocked once those ones are gone.
It was a one-off item, so it could be discontinued as soon as it was released... but it has been out for a lot less time than other items that are also one-off that are still at full price and shelf-warming (the bigger Rescue Bots toys).

Maybe its just random boxing-day discounts, as the Combaticon set is barely a month old (6 weeks actually), so couldn't be going on clearance so soon (especially with how cheap they were already selling it).
I guess we'll see if the price goes back up in a few days time.

The other Transformers lines that Kmart appear to be clearing out for the end of the year are the RID Minicons and the Rescue Bots mini playsets (which were first being sold for $29, and then reduced to to a regular price of $20).

There are probably others on clearance as well that my nearest two stores no longer stock... as the Generations Leaders were now gone at both stores.

Maybe they were so cheap (at $59) because Hasbro Australia were just getting rid of the ones cheaply that they had left and are no longer going to sell Leaders in Australia? It's not like it was easy to find wave 2 here, or many stores stocking them. BigW don't, and I only found the Leaders at one Target store and one Myer store up here... Kmart and ToysRUs were the two best sources for them, and ToysRUs stores aren't too common. That can't leave Hasbro Australia with enough minimum demand to import them anymore, especially when the focus for 2017 Toyfair will be on the Movie toys, at the expense of Generations (like in 2014).

I just went to Kmart Chadstone and they didn't have those on clearance. Because they didn't have ANY Transformers at all. Not even a empty space on the shelf where they should be!

Ooshies everywhere but very limited number of branded toy at all (few TMNT things, half in clearance, very little Star Wars - no 3.75 figs etc). Looking at their general generic approach to products maybe they are changing their approach for things like that.

Fountain Gate TRU has clearance stickers on MP Lambor ($99.98) and MP Gold (G2) Bumblebee ($79.98). Not sure if those prices represent a big enough discount to qualify as "clearance", but there it is.

Also noted that they weren't locked away but on shelf with those anti-theft devices with the wires that cut into the packaging. So might not suit everyone anyway.

Also, Big W has the RID Minicons for $5 each. I bought a few, you'll hopefully see why soon... ;)

Kmart stores in NSW and VIC have slashed prices on TR Titan Masters down to $5 from $9. Since I didn't think to take a picture here's one from the VIC sightings thread.


Kmart in Footscray had TR Brawn and Chase. The Titanmasters were on clearance - $5 each

To go on clearance after only what 2-3 months says a lot, things like "maybe you shouldnt have charged scalper prices".
And Australian retailers wonder why more and more of us are buying things online :rolleyes:

Not sure if this is the place to post this but I went by Toyworld in New Quay (VIC) and I found these items called "Robots Alliance". Now the box cover looks like any other robot toy but then I turned them around and low & behold, they are copies of Arms Microns :D Whether technically they are KO's or a legit form of out sourcing I don't know but they are selling for $2.00 each. If indeed they classify as a ko then mods please feel free to move this post. For the price, I snapped up 9 of the 12 :D

Dunno if right place but I reported them in the vic sightings thread.

They're oversized ko's...far too large to work out of the box and the clear pieces aren't clear so you end up covering some stickers with solid plastic, mind you they're easy enough to modify just some time and sand paper or maybe some faster automated method that can shave off the pegs to fit into 5mm holes

I bought the pants for $39 down from $75 from Sydney Airport PA on Monday and the lady said it should be country wide sales prices.
There weren't any of the boxer shorts left, just the long leg pants both styles and the Bumblebee long sleeve top.
Once they have been on sale for 2 weeks they will then be moved onto the DFO sites.

That didn't take long... but I'm not surprised, as the prices were way too premium for items that didn't look or feel too much better than items at Kmart or Target (for a tenth of the price).

Yeah I tend to agree but they feel good.
Wore them last night as it was finally cool enough to wear pants like that in QLD and they are pretty darn comfortable. I am sure after a wash or 2 they will still stay comfortable unlike the KMart etc ones which loose their newness pretty quick.

It looks like stores are pricing them at their discretion, as there were a heap today at the Indooroopilly Kmart, and the yellow shelf tag said $39, but each box had a special price sticker on them and barcode, saying $25... which is even cheaper than the Garden City store.

Whether $25 or $29. These prices surely are at a loss... Doesn't bode well for these mega 1-step toys. Grimlock went on heavy discount at clearance to move the stock. Steep RRP at time of release didn't help.

They ordered heaps of wave one, everyone got what they needed from wave 1, retailers don’t understand why people don’t still want more wave 1. They stop stocking the product. Following waves become stagnant and rare. Add in a line that will be over by the end of the year and you’ve got one hell of a recipe for stuff like this.

Classic. Repeat for next line.

I presume they don’t want to lose out too much, so the clearance price isn’t very low. It’s not even the price that’s responsible for unmoving product which is the bad part. I and probably many others would happily pay $35 for a shot at Sludge, Snarl or the others.
