[iceburn]

Just thought of creating a new Singapore Sightings thread for overseas SG fans if there are any out there or for those going on trips. I'll try to post as much as possible when I'm out scouting or just "window" shopping

[iceburn]

Was at Compasspoint today for my first "hunting"

HFTD and Generations deluxes - S$17 (Mostly previous waves... no new waves yet).
HFTD Starscream and Optimus Prime - S$80
HFTD Payload, Seaspray and voyagers - S$30

Encore Skylynx - S$80 i think
Encore Hoist and Trailbreaker - S$20
Encore Jazz - S$16-18 i think

Exclusive Pirannacons - S$80

HA Jazz - S$70
HA Sideswipe and Bumblebee - S$40

PCC 2pack - S$15 (Up to current wave)

There's also a HTFD 2pack - Bumblebee (Cannon) and a legend for sale; a 5 or 6pack HTFD legends set for sale too

[Vector Prime]

Encore Hoist and Trailbreaker - S$20
Encore Jazz - S$16-18 i think

Is that a typo? :eek:

Damn, I might even be tempted to collect some G1 re-issues at those prices (that's if I lived in Singapore) :(

[iceburn]

no..not a typo.. they are trying to clear stock but be warn that shipping to AU might be expensive

I didnt check FH but reissue predaking is about $220.

Have been doing some mini hunts and there isn't much new as compared to Australia

Metro Sengkang: Usual old deluxes from Generations and ROTF. Also have the old RTS Wave 1 deluxes

Did found something at OG Chinatown
They finally have RTS eariler deluxes such as Bumblebee, Tracks, Jazz; also have Generations Cliffjumper, Thunderwing, Skullcruncher...

Went to TRU Harbourfront today and saw that they had RTS Perceptor x 2 deluxes but no more Wreckgar. Gosh, I got to source out other TRUs soon.

Deluxes are now priced at S$28 with no sale

The rest aren't worth mentioning.

However, I did notice some new Marvel and Star Wars Crossovers if anyone is interested. It's S$35 each though.

hahaha TF mugs were just too heavy a load unless you want it posted from HK. i reckon postage will be expensive hence didnt go ahead. when i was there, i fell sick and could only enjoy 2 weeks of going out the house.

erm, possibly Skylynx left in Singapore.

Compasspoint is in Sengkang (North East)

[iceburn]

Ok.. spotted:

Takashimaya (Orchard)
S$50 Leader ROTF Starscream on sale
S$10 PCC 2Packs (Wave 1 and 2, i believe)

S$10 PCC 2Packs too; same wave as above
S$80 Pirannacons x 2

Nothing special to report except ANIMATED freeway jazz for S$40
Other deluxes are still at S$28

[iceburn]

$140 each for the e-hobby Decepticon and Autobot 3pack

[iceburn]

(prices are approximate AU$)
Singapore Airport

Generations Leaders (Ironhide & Starscream) were about $100 each. :(
(TRU Singapore have them for about $110, but had a "club" discount of $25 off... but someone forgot their club card, so I'm likely to buy these out of desperation at the full price... :p hehehe)
Airport store also had the TFPrime Voyagers Ultra Magnus & Thundertron for about $50, and Deluxe wave 6 (Rumble & Kup and older moulds including Vehicon) for about $24.
The G2 Bruticus was a surprise to me, but about $100. Ultimate Gift set was about $65, which is close to what HK online stores were selling it. Plus the Bumblebee battlesuit at $50!
(this was also the first time I've seen the GEN Combaticons at a retail store... just had to go to another country to do it... :p )

TRU stores (visited two of them)
Have the Asian Generations Leaders, Voyagers, Deluxe and Scouts. (more expensive than our size classes though :( )
Also had the FOC Voyagers (about $50) and the Minions 2-packs (about $16.50).
TFPrime DLX Wave 6 (on sale at the moment for about $20) and TFPrime Cmdr wave 4 (about $16.50).
Hasbro MP Optimus for SG$270! (about AU$225) more than what I paid for the JP version. It was on sale though for about $170... still a lot more than our retail price.
BotShots wave 5.
Bumblebee Battlesuit (also for about $50)
Heaps of the new First Edition DLX figures (also at the DLX sale price).
MP Thundercracker for about $115.
Gen2 Bruticus (about $100 I think).
Ultimate Giftset was about $60 (same as HK sources)
And at one TRU was a lonely Disney TFs Donald for about $55.
At the other store there were several of the Trilogy Optimus (with trailer) for about $50 each.

Found at a third TRU here, a smaller DLX TFPrime backing card assortment, which is multi-lingual (probably Euro versions being released here to keep up supply in the stores... which must be doing better here than in Australia).
This Euro assortment includes Airachnid, so between the main TRU stores here, you can just about get every TFPrime DLX toy at the moment.
