Yea, saw the ad last night too, it was either on foxtel or channel 7, can't really recall.

But they better be getting even more than a trickle of inventory in the stores to back these new ads up.

New ad was cool. I saw it on Channel 10. Reminded me of the old school ones from the 80's. Landmine featured pretty prominently.

it was fun

So when a product is out of stock, there are two things that a company can do to regain market share - discount the product or do an advertising blitz. I guess it is obvious which approach Hasbro have taken, because the prices are still the same. The current exchange rate means Deluxes are about AU$12 in America, compared to our AU$24-28.
Okay, rant over... for now.

I saw the ad the other day as well, and it sounds like it is being played a lot at the moment for it to be seen by so many of us at different times.
It features Nightwatch Optimus, Incinerator, Landmine and (I think) Stockade - all from the Allspark Power subline.

yeap...saw it yesterday.
all 4 figures appeared only in the commercial.

"have no fear, Nightwatch Optimus Prime is here!!"

you'd think with all these repaints and ads wed see some more movie toys on shelves


the movie was a year ago, do the general public still remember it?

I went to Target straight after seeing the ad and found Stockade so I think it is related. I've now seen Stockade at every major toy selling store except TRU and K-Mart and I assume it's because the ad's playing.
