Morley TRU had no Drifts left as of yesterday. Plenty of the other Generations figures, though.
Heaps of Ldr SS and OP w/ Battle Hooks at Kmart Kardinya at $88.00
As well as heaps of HA Skids, BB and Sideswipe.
Also atleast 8 Buster OP w/ Black Jetfire packs at $149.00
So as far as I can figure, to get my hands on a Drift it is just Toyworlds and Big Ws that have them in stock at the moment?
P.S. Cheers for Skystalker Valks, he's pretty damn neat. Had him facing off against Seaspray on my desk for a while and while he's definitely out-sized, I'd still put my money on the little guy.
I saw a single Drift lonely at TRU three weeks odd ago in Cannington.
Not to say that it's still there, but that TRUs here have them too.
A couple of ROTF Bludgeons were hiding at Morley Target at lunchtime today.
...and a single Drift at Big w Belmont this evening.
Leader SS at Big W Mirabooka - no Drift though.
Plenty of PCCs at Mirabooka K-Mart plus HA Sideswipe & BB & yellow carded movie figures (Jetstorm, or is it Jetblade?, Sea Attack Ravage et al).
Second series of the 5-pack PCCs at Kmart Morley this morning (in the display of toys towards the front of the store) $40 each.
Double Clutch and Mudslinger were the names, I think
Went looking for Drift today. No sign of him at Midland Toyworld, target, Kmart or Big W. None at TRU Morley, Myer Kmart either. Almost gave up, but decided to try Subi Toyworld and there he was on the front of the shelves. Finally!
Still one left, at the crazy over-inflated price of $33.
Did see PCC 5-pack Doubleclutch at Kmart Midland and a few more at Kmart Morley. Didn't spot Mudslinger but I wasn't looking too hard.
Hi all!
On something completely different and quite exciting (to me anyway), is the new Hunt for Decepticons Leader Class Starscream! (a.k.a. upcoming MP Movie Starscream) and on a lesser note also the Hunt for Decepticon Leader Class Battle Hooks Optimus Prime
Also saw TF: WFC Optimus Prime and TF Generations Thrust.
All the above TF were sighted at David Jones, Perth CBD.
I got the last HfD Starscream on the shelf but they may restock later on for those of you who are interested!
Really liked HfD Starscream he's a very solid robot mode / accurate jet mode with nice lights and sounds (disappointingly the Starscream voice is not the real actor in the movie!)
Just saw MudSlinger and Clutch combiners at Mirrabooka Kmart for $40. Nice timing there, just after sale >.>

Has anyone spotted the new 2 packs for PCC? I'm looking for Leadfoot

Did my usual rounds during work (Kalamunda Toyworld, Empire Toys, Cannington TRU and Midland Toyworld essentially)
Lots of restocking going on - I'm considering picking up another ROTF Brawn.
Still nothing new though (ie we're still at wave 1 of PCC, Generations, and Autobot Alliance), although the Autobot Alliance deluxes (yellow box stuff) have filtered through to all the shops now (were previously only seen at TRU).
Empire haven't got anything new going on, same shelf of a few Japan Animated Megs, Primes, Bees and Screamers, and a bunch of Alternity Primes and Megatrons.
Still awaiting PCC 2 pack wave 2 stuff - I want Lead Foot damn it, he has a late G1/early G2 charm about him.
Yeah he actually reminded me more of Slapdash than G1 Leadfoot. If he had a headsculpt more like either of them I'd be sold, but alas no.Quote:

Odd considering we've had 2 molds of them (if you count this) in the last 5 years
New voyagers spotted at kalamunda toyworld (banzaitron and blades prime). So yeah check your toyworlds for them.
Prime looks nice, I may indulge myself tomorrow
got mine at Toyworld SuccessQuote:

Not at Toyworld.
Nor the new PCC stuff.
On my instant buy list for the wave 2 stuff is Lead Foot, WFC Megatron and WFC Soundwave.
i saw double clutch dunno if hes been spotted or not
at mirrabooka
okay went down to inalloo shops this evening and found:
Kmart:
about 10 each of haman alliance bb, skids and sideswipe- i would have purchased them but i just think $50 is way to much for the figures.
alswell as a heap of hftd deluxes( ravage, bb, ironhide, and that plane one(i dont recall the name)
other than those they also had a bunch of ultimate bb's and 2 big devastators aswell as the hftd scouts and a few of the legends(no new ones at all)
Target:
the same hftd deluxes and scouts and legends as kmart aswell as many many more ultimate bb's. they also had some of the 2 pack deluxe sideways and wheelie, and the 2 pack voyager optimus with i think it was deluxe bb. the also had a bunch of legends devys
out of all of this i only picked myself up a deluxe ironhide which i must say is a great figure. highly suggest him for any fan of the character, a heap better than the voyager as he has no floppy chest pieces, it all tabs into place:D
Seen at KMart Morley this morning:
Transformers Generations (finally!) but no Drift
"Warriors of Three Worlds" scout 3-pack $35. Interestingly the pack advertised Universe Sideswipe and Galvatron as "also available". I guess this pack has been around for a while
'Desert Decimation' legends 4-pack with movie ratchet, ironhide, brawl and bonecrusher $25
Joondalup Shopping Centre
Kmart have a stack of TF Generations: Warriors from 3 worlds 25th anniversary gift packs. On top of that Big W also has a bulk lot of Human Alliance Sideswipe in as well.
to be clear, the Warriors from 3 Worlds pack isnt the one with Hot Rod, Galvatron and Cyclonus?
If not, are we going to get that pack at retail.
anybody seen breacher anywhere yet? Belmont preferred, already been to midland and Kalamunda...
Warriors from 3-worlds is just 3 Cybertron Scout toys. It has the 25th anniversary bit on the box, but is actually Universe, not Generations (easy mistake, since it is over a year old, while Universe was still being used).Quote:

They're definitely scouts.
Generations Drift had hit Kmart Morley last night. There were two on the shelves.
There were also the latest RPMs... I think they're called Speed Stars or something like that.
Toys R Us have Marvel-Transformers crossovers with a $35 price tag on the shelves but they scan as $20 at the price checker and register...:cool:
Masterpiece Grimlock at Morley Toys R us for $150
Although they're not advertised as such, at Kmart Morley ROTF Scouts are scanning in as $13 instead of the usual $15.
whoa! Thanks for the great news! been waiting for him to hit perth...but 150?!Quote:

Hopefully i won't get another defected hasbro masterpiece xD (my hasbro skywarps right thumb loves to come off!)
I just can't justify the 150 for that given it's a full $50 more than the seeker mold, which is more complex.
I think it's more to do with the fact that he's an electronic figure as well.Quote:

also the takara edition is like 150 and 48 dollars for postage on ebay and iirc...this edition of the figure doesn't come with "waiterbot" (the apron, metal dish with the cups).
Don't forget RK guys, their price works out considerably cheaper at the moment!
Remember both MP Prime and Megatron had electronics as well, so i doubt that's entirely the reason for the higher cost of Grimlock.
MP prime and megatron cost more then any other cos they were huge as well. secondly...megatron won't see the light of day outside of japan unless imported (which i did :D)Quote:
