No Long Haul at golden Grove Big W, SkyWarp91 it might be worth looking at Toy World since they don't move as much stock.
Thanks heaps for the heads up regarding Long Haul at Golden Grove, I will try all Toy Stores in the ADelaide CBD as I am there right now, including the City Toyworld. If I can't find a Long Haul anywhere in Adelaide, I'll just wait for Payload. Thanks again.Quote:

I haven't seen any Bludgeons up in the Northern/Western Suburbs, or as in the city obviously. And yeah, it makes you wonder if Toys R Us were thinking 'geez, shouldn't we have a bit more variation on our shelves' lolQuote:

I can only hope they're coming back in a later assortment.
I saw 1 a few months ago at my local Kmart but it was sold by the time I went back to get it and I haven't seen it since.Quote:

But there might not be many next time around either, since Hasbro won't want too many Dirges still on the shelves by the time the Jetblade redeco is released mid-year.Quote:

B-B-B-BLUDGEON GET!
none left, from Target TTP. Also had Mindwipe, Prime redeco & Recon (?) Ironhide.
Congrats on getting Bludgeon Gutsman, is he a good figure? Worth spending $50 on?Quote:

Just picked up ROTF Bludgeon from Big W at TTP but he was the last one they had
Hehe, snap. Except I got mine from BigW Elizabeth. Picked up Mindwipe too, and there was one left. Rambo Ironhide is still there too. :)Quote:

Has anyone else noticed the deal at TRU where if you spend over $75 on Transformers you get Recon Ravage for free? I'm thinking of getting the Shanghai Showdown pack and the Battlefield Bumblebee/Infiltrator Soundwave two-pack on Tuesday.
Just got Bludgeon today at Big W Arndale, ah, only around $38. So worth it, grabbed Recon Ironhide too while I was at it.Quote:

I think you have till the 21st of April to get Bludgeon for only $38 at a Big W, I bid you good luck!!!Quote:

(Now to wait till Thursday to pay off the lay-buy :rolleyes:)
I'm glad they had more. I got one there on Wednesday night and that was the only one on the shelf too. They must only be one to a case, and they cracked a fresh case just for you! :)Quote:

great toy.
I only wish i can find one tomorrow!
It definitely looked like a refresh. The last time I was in Big W at Elizabeth the shelves were bare.Quote:

I went to TRU GEpps Cross today and found out they don't do this specific deal.Quote:

I also speculate that the new line of Transformers should be hitting our shelves considerably soon, as I saw official cheaper, hard-plastic masks for Movie Prime and Bumblee with the new Transformers label (looks similar to the Transformers Generations Design)
The Ravage deal ended April 11th.
NO!!!!Quote:

Finally got around to visiting Morphett Vale ToyWorld. Not much there, about 6 Universe 2.0 Heavy Load, 2 Universe Autobot Blasters and a few of the older RotF Voyagers.
Not much new at Noarlunga Kmart, the only new thing they had were about 10-12 of the Battlefield Bumblebee/Infiltration Soundwave 2-Packs which is weird because I thought that was a Toys'R'Us Exclusive. :confused:
Any of those older voyagers = long haul?Quote:

If you dont mind ordering online, FiguresDirect still have Longhual.
Thanks for the heads up BigPenney, I checked the site out, it's pretty good but I'm not such a big fan of using credit cards. I'll just sit it out and be patient, thanks again for the suggestion.Quote:
