A little delayed, which isn't unusual for Australia, the first of the Buzzworthy Bumblebee have started showing up at Target stores, and are listed on their website, for $39 each.Quote:
Studio Series Deluxe - YES - TARGET - END FEBRUARY
SS15-BB DLX Mv6 Bumblebee (Camaro) with Charlie (minus add-on parts and stickers)
SS26-BB DLX Mv5 WWII Bumblebee (armoured vehicle)
SS40-BB DLX Mv6 Shatter (car)
SS74-BB DLX Mv2 Bumblebee with Sam
Disappointingly, the price is significantly more than the regular Studio Series Deluxe toys, which are currently $29 at Target (was $34 in 2019). SS26 and SS40 were previously released here, and if you can't still find them somewhere, this could be a good second chance at an extra $10... while SS15 had a limited release here at Toyworld, for $70, this release is a lot cheaper, but you don't get the extra car panels and stickers.
Meanwhile, SS74 is still about 3 months away from being released... if it is still getting released in regular packaging, as this release could dry up the interest in this particular figure, and not make it worth re-releasing in regular SS packaging. (then again, if it is still being released in the regular SS line, it will be $10 cheaper if we wait for it)
The second batch of Buzzworthy Bumblebee toys for Australia were also a bit late, but have now started showing up at Kmart stores in different states.

The last of the first "wave" of Buzzworthy Bumblebee toys (the Cyberverse Spark Armor packs) were not originally expected to come here, but someone found them on the Toymate website a few weeks ago... and now taken down, so who knows if they are coming here at all.
The second "wave" is expected to come here around June-July.
So it seems that the Cyberverse Spark Armor listing on Toymate back in April was not an accident after all... they were getting them, just not during the first wave.Quote:

At Kmart we have the two redeco RID Crash Combiner 2-packs, at $29 each.
One is Bumblegrim (Bumblebee & Grimlock) and the other is Primelock (Optimus & Grimlock).

The Buzzworthy Worlds Collide 4-pack was originally supposed to be at Myer (for about $170), but has been showing up at Toyworld, Toymate and even Uncle Petes Toys... which by the way looks to be the cheapest so far at $140, plus $10 flat-rate shipping around Australia.
Buzzworthy Bumblebee Warrior 4-pack (Optimus, Megatron, Bumblebee, Starscream) $99.99 at Myer.
I was wondering when that was going to be released.
For those wondering, the four toys from Cyberverse are said to be identical to their original single-packed releases... which means this 4-pack is actually a good value, being $25 each compared to about $30 each originally.
