After Retail Chains skipped the entire second series of Kreo Build-sets, the first of the third series have been found at BigW.

The redeco (and reworked) Weaponizers are now out in Australia.
The Green Optimus and black Bumblebee, each are $55-60 at Toyworld.
(as noted below, both of the original versions are still around in some parts of the country, for less than half that price... in more cartoon accurate colours)

Forgot to note here 6 weeks ago (end of October) that the Jet Vechion Legion figure was being found at Coles and Woolies stores (and maybe some others by now).
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/tftoys/tfpbhc22.jpg
Plus today, the second wave of the Elite class Construct-Bots.

Wave four of the Beast Hunters Deluxe figures now found in Australia, which includes Arcee, Knockout and Vertebreak... but since we missed Wave 2 here (Starscream, Ripclaw, Bulkhead, Smokescreen), having Starscream re-released in Wave 4 makes it a first release as well.

The last wave of Beast Hunters Legions have shown up in Australia (RotGut, Divebomb, Ace Vehicon, Bluestreak)... after the Americans have learnt that they may not even show up there. These are European versions, like the Jet Vehicon wave that has been showing up here in the last couple months.

There should be three in the first wave (Optimus/monster truck, Heatwave/boat, Bumblebee/bike), but Bumblebee seems to be missing in the first two sightings (either popular, or a modified case assortment for us here).

The second wave includes...

- Cindersaur (new mould beast), Optimus Prime (redeco single pack "Cybertron" Optimus), Jazz (Superbot/transparent clear series 1 Jazz)

(there are three sizes of One-step figures, with the Mega size being about the same size as the Flip&Change... but more expensive)

The DVD should be the same as the regular release of about 4 episodes, but is exclusively packed with a random Beast Hunters CMDR class toy.
Considering the TFPrime DVDs are usually $20, that's a free toy.

Bumblebee, Crosshairs, Slash, and Hound are supposed to be in Wave 2 as well, but were not seen.

Looks like another of the Target exclusive "Silver Knight" toys has been found here, being the Construct-Bots set (with a Grimlock in yellow and blue for some strange reason).

From the June sales almost 2 weeks ago... I had been too busy to realise that these were a first sighting.
Walmart/BigW Excl Legends - Stinger, Optimus, Bumblebee, Grimlock
Construct-Bots - Dinofire Grimlock (apparently a world first)
Titans with weapons - Optimus, Grimlock (also could be a world first)
Rescue Bots - Epic Optimus Prime (and probably a world first two)
Plus, the Nikko licensed Remote Controlled vehicles - Lockdown, Bumblebee, convertible Bumblebee.
Group shot of the new items with other items that day, except the Nikko RC cars...Quote:

Hasbro's Masterpiece Prowl (MP-04) is now out in Australia... before any where else it would seem, for $100.
MP-03 Grimlock is supposed to be coming soon after, so Prowl has jumped the queue here.
Also sighted at ToysRUs are the second series of those cross-generational figurines from the Australia company Goldie (which have distributed them around the world).
Plus, another of the Target exclusive Silver Knight themed toys have been found here - the 12 inch Titan. That just leaves the redeco First Edition Optimus (which we should be getting here) and the Battle Masters 2-pack (which we are not likely to get here).

Blades and Bumblebee are new moulds to reflect their new convertible toy forms, while Dani Burns and the Morebot are also new for the figurines... allowing collectors to FINALLY complete the entire Burns family.
