Kind of a late posting, but Garden City had plenty of Deluxe DOTM Optimus Primes (sunday sighting)
You in town? There was a meet the other day at that shopping center... if you were here then, you shoulda dropped by.
BigW Garden City has 6 left of the 12 Jetwing Primes they started with, and they have been moved closer to the toy section.
Coles Sunnybank have the last two waves of PCC 2-packs, for $16 each.
If anyone is in Gladstone (doubt it, but anyway) and still wants to pick up Takara Jetwing Prime locally be quick Big W is down to there last one. Remember our Target won't be stocking Jetwing Prime when their sale starts.
Has anyone sighted Topspin Deluxe in Big W or Target in Brisbane yet?
Also anyone seen anyone Takara twin pack of Buster Prime and Jetfire left over?
I just found out that Jetfire is different to the ROTF Leader and he is one of my favourites!
Robina Kmart has a FULL set of Generations, eight figures across two pegs.
Get thee to a Kmart before an ebay collector snaps them up.
Also Big W Robina now has Cyberverse Megatron Action set x 5, and Optimus x 1 Action set. Plus they've hidden all the arks into the 'special' seasonal isle, just past the lollies. Amongst all the preschool toys, where no tf fan will find them.
Target spring wood has some new Deluxe Top Spins.
Apart from that nothing exciting, they don't have any of the Legion/Commander sets yet but I am sure they will be there for the upcoming toy sale.
Kmart Garden City restocked two cases of Generations
does anybody know if there is still any generation figs at garden city kmart
They had a fair few about a week ago when I was last there.
Christalcase works at GC so may have looked there more recently.
Target Runaway bay has topspin and laser beak
went to kmart today at garden city and they have heaps of thunder crackers, wheeljacks and warpath and only one redalert
Hey... I was doing the very rare check of the Toyworld here in Noosa, If anyone was still after some of the RTS Turbo Tracks, Special Ops Jazz, and there was also one Wreck Gar there they had them for $15
Are you coming down to my meet (whenever it happens .. if it happens) in the CBD on the 13 of Aug?
Love a Jazz, Tracks and Gar for $15 each ..
Only if your coming down though, otherwise dont worry.
Unless Toyworlds in the Gold Coast/Brisbane area still have RTS Deluxes and Voyager cheap..
Springwood Target pretty much has everything released to date. Wave 1 and 2 Legions $7, Wave 1-2 Commanders $15, Wave 1-3 Deluxes $20 (including a couple of Jolt and Topspin), around ten Jetwing Optimus $149, Ark $49, Wave 1-2 Voyager $35, Wave 1-2 Leader $65, Megatron/Bumblebee and Ironhide/Leadfoot $19 and Wave 1-2 Action Playsets $24
Jetwing Prime at TRU Garden City for $169. They had Wave 1 DOTM Commanders at one section with a ticket price of $14.39, and only Bumblebee and Starscream playsets for $20
Springwood Target now has the exclusive Voyager Ratchet & Starscream, which both are covered by the sale ($35 for Mechtech Voyagers) despite not being Mechtech Voyagers.
Plus a couple cases of the latest wave of Star Wars Transformers (series 4 wave 4).
They also had the first wave of the Rescue Bots Basics (six sets of humans with a convertible accessory) $9 each, Electronic Heatwave & Chase, and the Bumblebee Rescue Garage playset.
(all a lot of fun to play with too... ;) )
At carindale Target today they had all DOTM Voyagers for $35 Inc the exclusive Ratchet and Starscream
They had a whole heap of Jetwing Optimus Primes. I relented and bought one!!!
On another note they have a special deal on $20 iTunes cards. 2 cards for $30!!!!
Target PAC fair and helensvale both have 9 boxes of jetwing prime left at 149.. As for voyager.. Helensvale as of last week have all
Edit: TRU paccas have 7 boxes jetwing prime at 170.. One box damaged
Also 2 pack special rodimus and cyclones reveal the shield x5 in TRU
Tracks and Perceptor for $30 each at Toyworld Aus Fair and they refuse to change there prices. Perceptor and WFC Optimus and Bumblebee for $20 Each at Runaway Bay Toyworld and thats for Gold Coast. I'm pretty sure all the other Toyworlds have been changed to toyland now.
Had a run through all the stores in the CBD, only notable store was Myer Centre Toyworld who had Rts Voyagers (Lugnut, Strafe, Grappel) for $30, some Generations for $20, BiS Rodimus/Cyclonus 2pk for $30 and DOTM Voyagers for $40.
Also found these new Wave 2 Activators at Myer and Toyworld (Topspin and Megatron) for $20:

Kmart Browns Plains had almost 40 of the last assortment of Generations toys, with all 5 figures still available. No HA Sideswipes yet.
BigW there had some older figures though - Thunderwing, Red Alert, Skullgrin.
Target didn't have any Ultimate Primes yet.
While I was at the Target Browns Plains, I took this photo...
Half the Legions toys were Bumblebees (4-5 deep) next to the rest that were only about 2 deep. And all the Voyagers left there were Optimus. Just a little too many of the two main Autobots in the early waves... hmmm?
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/targettoysd.jpg
Yeah I noticed the overstock of Bumblebees and Optimus Primes as well :( This sort of shelfwarming is not good for all parties,ie supplier, retailer, customer. I really hope some serious feedback is given back to Hasbro.
TRU Pacific Fair now has Masterpiece Rodimus Prime, with TRU exclusive stickers, for only $79.99
Given this price, it will likely sell out quick. When I went back in the afternoon there were two less of them, and I bought one for myself.
Given that I'd paid nearly one fifty for Grimlock just six months earlier,I am just floored by how much "markup" must have been on masterpiece figures earlier.
Also, and here's the strangest thing, when I opened mine a set of sticker decals fell out. I can see the shoulder strips for Hot Rod, but weirdly there was an Autobot AND a Decepticon logo on the sheet as well, and nothing about it in the instruction pamphlet. I don't ever remember Rodimus turning evil in the cartoon or comic fiction, so it seems bizarre to have a decpticon logo decal. And even an autobot one, as his faction logo is pained on already.
How many were there to start with? What kind of quantity is each Toys R Us getting?
Feck, thats bad sounding news for me regarding Rodimus on the GC!
reillyd - you have a PM.
No Masterpiece Rodimus at TRU Garden City. As is typical of that store, the staff member that was asked to help me wasnt of any help at all.
"All our stock is on the shelves," she replied without even knowing what I'd just asked for.
Same crap they always spout when I've asked them about stock of anything over the years.
Big W CBD has the new Star Wars scout sized Transformers for $15.64, they are pretty small though (a bit smaller than the size of previous scouts but bigger than the current Commanders). Only the two styles there with about three of each.

They also had two more of the TF3 Play-Doh set for $23.84.
Ooooo... I want one of those play-doh sets. Can you buy me one? :p
Did 'Demolition Rumble' ever turn up with the rest of the RTS stuff?
Nope. Never shipped anywhere.
Went for a walk around Pacific Fair today
Kmart has a bunch of the human alliance sideswipe and icepick sets along with a bunch of generations (but no scourge).
Toys R Us has 6 Rodimus on the shelf, and 10 more on overstock, along with Jetwing Prime.
Myer has a few rts items.left (but overpriced at $35 each) and also the activators? megatron and topspin.
Target was useless, no stock of voyagers, jetwing prime or any Lego advertised.
Toyworld Southport has the new Star Wars crossover basics at $!9.99 each.
Kmart - nothing
Target Helensvale has heaps of Jetwings, a lone exclusive Starscream and Ratchet as well as Shockwave and Skyhammer for those who need. A bunch of the cyberverse two Packs (Megatron is going to have to come home with as he looks good)
Kmart has a bunch of Warpaths, Wheeljacks and Thundercrackers.
Woolworth's has PCC Skyhammer and Heavytread for $10.30 each and a bunch of RTS Trailcutters that are on sale for $5 until the 16/8
TRU Garden City have 24 Rodimus toys in their system, but not on shelves yet (so they are either in the shipment they just got in, or it's in transit to them).
They also had the TFs Playdoh set for $30.
And they've moved ALL their TFs out to the front section of the store, meaning that there is absolutely nothing up the back in the regular section.
BigW there have the new SWTFs basics for $17 each.
Target at Mt Gravatt had a few each of the exclusive 2-packs (Bbee/Meg, Iron/Lead) and exclusive Starscream.
Target Indro have restocked an abundance of Jetwing Primes and Autobot Arks.
Runaway Bay Big W - new stuff for a New Zealander but all pretty boring items for anyone else. While Target was equally as bad and not an exclusive in sight.
Toyworld may have had some stuff but it was all stacked up on overstock and not readable, had a bunch of older stuff from tail end of rotf, hftd and pcc on the actual shelf. May have to come back and ask for some of it to be taken down if my other toyworld searches don't turn up anything.
Woolworth's has one of each of the last wave pcc 2 packs and several legends prowl and trailcutter.
