I think the guy/girl who shoot the photo in the catalog is not interested in transformers at all. Some of them was transformed properly. :p

I'm a little underwelmed. Just a few TFs, and that's it?

I'm just praying Target has a better sale than Big W or K-Mart...

It's US$143 shipped from RK and you can't take it back if it's defective ;-)

The online layby thing is really good though, you can choose from the catalouge and get what you want and just take it in to the store and do it before the 14th July which means no struggling past the mothers with their trolleys. I mainly just wanted the Sideswipe HA & the Skids HA anyway

this year's toy sale is disappointing... was hoping for some good prices on scouts, voyagers etc, instead we get supreme devastator :mad:

I reckon $149's not a bad price for the leader 2pk, especially since it's Buster Optimus Prime, with all the extra paint applications

Anyone want a Leader Jetfire and a normal Leader Prime?
I just wanna swap normal prime for buster prime

Maybe the retailers regret stocking Supreme Devastator because now they know not many people would buy it, so now they're aiming to sell all of them lol

On another note..

if that is actually Buster Prime in this 2-Pack then damn the sensation of buying the normal ROTF Prime first and then finding out this is on sale just stings so bad. :( :( :( It feels like Wheelie headbutted me in the groin.

ah well, it's not so bad. At least I have a movie optimus prime eh?

Considering we weren't going to get HA Skids, I'm so overjoyed I can complete my arcee collection. Even if she's heaps tiny. And get a sexy Mikaela to pose in a compromising position ;P

Based on the way 2007's Ultimate Bumblebee kept getting cheaper and cheaper with every sale, Supreme Devastator being reduced to less than Leader price was always likely.

There's also a chance that the rest of the Transformer line will be on sale at 20% off during the sale as well. The K-Mart Toy sale catalogues have tended just to feature the key TF items they have acquired for the sale.

The Human Alliance Figures are the normal price which are $35 each. I just picked mine up during lunch from the usual Kmart I got to, near where I work.

Theres about 8-10 each of Skids and Sideswipe left and about 6 Bumblebees left. The packaging is much smaller this time round.

and "Transforming Gun" from the two Fuel Tanks , "Silver on the Swords" and "Some Chromed Parts" ( although, i don't like it much due, to potentially being a pain to look after, which is more so on for the Grill ) ... :)

If it is the same 2pk i got from Robot Kingdom :confused:, which looks like it is based of that pic on PG44. :)

plus $149 for two, equals $74.50 each.

Did they put labels out with the $35 price on it?

Mine has, but they have like 20 Bumblebees and 1 Sideswipe... :mad:

Nope they didn't have any labels with $35 price tag, the barcode scanned at $35. I was quite surprised too. It was at the Burwood Kmart.

Damn Australia!
All we get in our Kmart sale is HFTD Deluxes at $4 off and Legends at $1 off

I want to get Buster Prime/Jetfire.

Some of that Lego looks good as well

I picked up HA Skids and Sideswipe from KMart West Lakes today for $35 each. Oddly, HA Bumblebee had a shelf tag saying he was still $49.

Yep, exacty what I found out also. Guess they aren't reducing BB until the sale begins.

Is the 2 pack prime and jetfire the same as the takara 2 pack with the chrome and Prime gun?

Kmart Toy Sale was a real disappointment in terms of TFs.

No other lines on sale except those advertise. Southland had heaps of the HFTD Deluxes and Voyagers Seaspray, Ratchet and Payload on the shelves including Leader Starscream but all were at normal price and not on sale.

Saw Mindwipe at $49 still but couldn't pricematch coz Big W didn't have the item in the catalogue! Arggh. :mad:

Unless you're looking for the $35 each HA Bumblebee, Skids or Sideswipe, they still had about 6 boxes of each last night about 1am.

Has anyone seen if they match the advertised Big W price for Deluxes? I'd expect they would, particularly in shopping centres like Fountain Gate and Southland that have both a Kmart and Big w.

We didn't try that as BigW has heaps of deluxes and 5pack PCCs this morning....

My Kmart matched, but I only tried HTFDs, not Generations.

STL

Golden Phoenix also price-matched last night too for HTFD. The Generations weren't there for us to attempt

Just going to repeat what Jay and STL have said about price matching.

I got my local K-Mart to price match both the Autobot Alliance Deluxes and PCC 5 packs.

I then got my 5% staff discount on top of that! :)


The layby still came out to about $290 though... Starscream, Seaspray, HA Skids, HA, Sideswipe, Aerialbots, Combaticons, Bumblebee, Ironhide.


But I'd have to agree with most people here, the TF offerings for this catalogue were very poor. I don't think there's been a sale so bad (in TF terms) in a number of years! Oh well...

What a bummer - the Kmart Human Alliance TFs are missing Barricade and Frenzy...

I wonder how many Human Alliance sets there were? :confused:

I really wanted Barricade and Frenzy, but I guess they're not in this case assortment.
