Scout wars continue! $8 at Kmart 16 to 24 December

[Paulbot]

A few weeks ago Kmart had Scouts on sale for $12. Then this week Target had them on sale for $10. Now Kmart has lowered them further to $8. Half price!

They are showing Sunspot in the catalogue. Maybe we can pick up Windcharger at that price now that it's been spotted at Kmart store (but if not I'm sure there's some shelfwarming Brimstones to get!)

The catalogue is online here (http://www.kmart.com.au/Catalogue/Catalogue.aspx?CatalogueID=354)

Your local Kmart's still have ROTF scouts on the shelf? I havent seen any in a Kmart in ages.

Kmart, Target, Big W, TRU all have some ROTF scouts still in stock around here. I think they all recently restocked or never sold any :D

[liegeprime]

hmmm if only the local stores would re-stock for sales.... Mayhaps brimstone bikie gang will come into fruition, has Sunspot come out here yet? I havent seen that one anywhere.....

[swoop]

I'm happy to say that I haven't paid over $12 for any scouts released during hftd hopefully I'll find sunspots wave before the 24th and can get them cheap aswell. I wish they would have this price battle with the voyagers

[KillinSpoon]

This is good news... Too bad the only scouts any of us are after are sunspot and windcharger...

[optimus1]

Finally! I can get a Hubcap and hopefully a Breacher :)

[kaiden]

i saw windcharger today and hid him in a different section. !@#$ if i dont find it there on thursday.

i contemplated making a breacher army...

[VERT]

Found Windcharger tonight and just got him. Was not going to risk it. And he did not scan

[Paulbot]

Windcharger might not be considered an AA Scout. Not scanning might help you get the AA Scout price actually.

[VERT]

Might be right. Windcharger is a fantastic figure I like him allot :D Going back tomorrow for the rest of the new ones. Re-paints for all :D

awesome. getting one in the morning then :)

[llamatron]

Yeah as of Wednesday evening Windcharger and the newer scouts scan up as AA SCOUT for $8 each.

[5FDP]

I wasn't going to get Windcharger, but at that price ($1 more than a legends toy), how can anyone say no.

[Paulbot]

Good news! Hope there's some left by Saturday.

Does nobody want Chopsaw? :o

[optimus1]

Just went to the Kmart near work (Stanhope Gardens), the AA scout section has has almost been picked clean!

(still managed to get the last Windcharger though :))

[STL]

i contemplated making a breacher army...

Oooh, almost had competition. :p

[Zippo]

Can anyone pick up a couple of a New Zealander?

Anyone .. come on, don't leave me hanging here.

Damn you! I was going to go after work but decided to stop off at TRU Castle Hill instead to find me a black-headed legends Starscream. The plan was then to go to Stanhope tomorrow. Oh well, lucky you :)

[Vector Prime]

Saw tonnes of them at Kmart Parramatta (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?p=210375#post210375) this afternoon and passed on them all... even for $8, I was like 'meh' :p

[gdmetro]

Visited Burwood Kmart today- was looking for windcharger and Breacher- I saw plenty of Chopsaws but not windcharger- except an old lady was holding one!!! seems I got there 5 mins too late :mad:

Oh well- not going to fight the old lady for it.

Then went to Kmart Bankstown- bajillion chopsaws but no windcharger. Nabbed a breacher under a pile of crap- also saw like 4-5 sunspots.

I want an $8 Windcharger!!

[tinyJazz]

You guys, if you buy the item before the sale, you can get a refund of the difference as soon as the sale starts. ;)

Also sorry Griffin, I totally raided your local kmart of new scouts on Wednesday. :p

[JuzMel]

Kmart Southland last night

- Heaps of new wave of scouts: Windcharger, Chopsaw, Firetrap, Sunspot, couple of Breachers, Insecticon and the shelf warming Brimstone and Backfire.

All at the fantastic $8 price. Was contemplating whether to get 2 Windchargers - but figured I didn't need two. :p

[5FDP]

Oh well- not going to fight the old lady for it.


It's fair game until you get to the register ;)

[griffin]

Also sorry Griffin, I totally raided your local kmart of new scouts on Wednesday. :p

I went in there yesterday too, to see if they had them... ah well, I'll try another Kmart and hope I find them before the sale ends. :)

[The_Damned]

no windcharger in batemans bay :(

[Jaisun]

Good news! Hope there's some left by Saturday.

Does nobody want Chopsaw? :o

Poor ol' Chopsaw... I guess the fact he looks like Brimstones sexually confused brother doesn't help much... =oP

And you call yourself a TF collector... :rolleyes:

Very lol =oD

Anyhoo, my own thoughts on topic, what is happening with these Scouts in SA? I have been to 5 K-Marts, seen a few Windchargers and Chopsaws, a buttload of Sunspots, plus the usual shelfwarmers, but not one single Firetrap?

EDIT: Oh, my bad, Firetrap has been spotted at Noarlunga, but that's about a 1.5-2 hour drive from my area, especially in xmas traffic. Wouldn't it be nice if these stores rolled stuff out simultaneously? Yeah I know, asking too much now...

[liegeprime]

wooohoo good things on sale!! - Parramatta Kmart was just restocking the shelves when I got there, I got my Windcharger from the box they were getting the stock to put on the shelves, the guy did mind me sifting thru it anyhow heheheh. I left all the other recolours scouts. not that interested.

[SkyWarp91]

Well I just showed up to my local K-Mart today and the entire scout section was empty... :)

That's no good...

I already have the new figures, but I do hope that they'll restock or other stores will stock new toys so that other people can get them too.

One of the nearest Kmarts to me was exactly the same, not a single scout to be seen...

Went to a couple of Kmarts over the weekend too, scouts were all cleared from the shelves except for 1-2 Brimstones / Chopsaws left.

[Sharky]

went to the local kmart yesterday evening and they had a heap of scouts i gave up after i counted 20 windchargers.. the pegs wer stocked and then a shelf qwas loaded with them...

so if anyone wants em Campbelltown Kmart has them. but with a week til christmas and the great price of them.. i wonder how fast they will disappear

[i_amtrunks]

Mt Druitt Kmart had plenty of the $8 scouts, more than making up for Stanhope Gardens!

[adds]

My local kmart finally restocked in the last 24 hours, lots of lovely new scouts.
Firetrap, sunspot, breacher, insecticon, chopsaw, but most importantly windcharger. Though there is only one windcharger left now :)

[Paulbot]

Can anyone (in Melb) help Blink90210 out by finding him a Windcharger (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?p=210945#post210945)?

that's awesome news, a good Samaritan has stepped up to help me but I'm glad to hear that they're popping up a bit more now. Hopefully this gives other people the oppportunity to more easily track him down.

[Mr Ed]

Yay!!!

Kmart at Mt Gravatt restocked and I purchased 4 Scouts today. 2 of them had the small heat TF insignia and the other 2 didnt.

[Krayt]

So far there are only 2 RtS scouts... windcharger and Chopsaw.... other new ones are still official AA, and all are in the same case with the wave before...
