Australian Transformers Price Comparison Listing 2013
Haven't done this since 2011, but figured it would be useful for the new lines starting this year.... and since several size-classes have had price rises this year (which are likely to be passed onto us here).
This only covers the six major chains that carry toys - BigW, Target, Kmart, ToysRUs, Toyworld, Myer.
PLEASE POST ANY missing or changed prices (here or in the sightings section), and it will be added to this first post.
Anything with $? means it has been sighted there, but no price is known yet.
Prices are rounded to nearest dollar if it is within 10 cents of that dollar.
