Just did a check of the TRU website and it says that there are only 7 available in my area. I assume my area is NSW :confused:
They're moving fast!!

Not in Perth
It is zero stock online. :mad:
Hmmm TRU website appears to be down. I think we crashed it. :D
(Can't access it now from either my phone or home PC - could earlier though).
Looks like I'll have to keep checking with local stores.
Edit: Ok, must be a server thing. Went on mobile using 3G instead of Wifi, website worked. Except WA out of stock so can't order. Damn, well will keep fingers crossed I can pick one up from physical store.
wohoo ordered! (was too excited/concerned about stock levels to worry about digging for the code, ordered 2, 1 for a mate, and shipping was $13 all up)...here's hoping nothing goes wrong from here! Thanks for pointing out about the website guys.
<goes off skipping jauntily through the lounge room>
edit: for the record, my order confirmation came at 9.08 ...
Really...can't even open the site keep getting this error "HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable." but managed to buy one using phone!
Site's still accessible from my mobile
Sweet, thanks mateQuote:

Sold out for Victoria as well I think...
Seek help from other members. A few are offering their 2nd SWs for sale.
U mean none were allocated for Perth online?Quote:

I think you're right. Won't let me proceed thru checkout. I hope all VIC members who wanted one were able to purchase online.Quote:

Oh no, I'll just pay the extra to get from ebay I guess if I have to. I cant take the stress of it all anyway :eek:Quote:

That's $30 well spent, as far as I'm concerned.
That's a no brainer. If I could find one for that price I'd snap it up. Are you talking about the Hasbro release? Cos if so that's pretty good!!Quote:

Only 15 going to Cannington, Good luck guys, I'm glad I bought the Takara one. TRU in WA is a joke, I didn't see one MP-10 on the shelf. If they shut down tomorrow it wouldn't worry me because I can never get anything from them anyway due to the horribly low numbers of stock we seem to get in Perth. All my patronage goes to online stores which is disappointing as I actually do like to support local businesses to help keep people employed.
That makes two of us, I never saw mp-10 and I didn't even know this forum so that made it harder. If I get it I get it, I already sold off my Takara, but no sweat, I can get another if things don't look so good.Quote:

That is really strange, it still allowing me to buy a total of 7 more in my local area. Should I buy all 7 and just distribute it too all members here who cant get it? (Victorian members)Quote:

Same in NSW so I do hope that those who ordered online will get it. It always easy to do a refund.
I didn't log in or have GPS enabled and it wouldn't let me add one.
Couldn't order one last night, but just tried again this morning and it worked!
Get on it fast fellas!!
yes, to all WA members. what a waste of time.Quote:

I mean we are talking about not a single FAN here got his order through for WA.
If anyone wants some help i'm willing to try and get them sent to tassie then on send them You'll just have to pay shipping from tassie
Here is the reply I received from TRU this morning:
"Dear Adrian,
