It comes with Onslaught, for those who had trouble finding one with the Scattershot wave.

These are also expected at ToysRUs, who are more likely to have them available in store, as they are more able to have them in display cases to protect them.

As for the regular, transforming Rescue Bots, this wave isn't new here, but I wanted to include a photo anyway.

As noted in the news section (here and on every other fansite), the Titans Return toys have started appearing here, with the Legends at a small chain in Sydney called Toymate, and Fortress Maximus at Myer stores around the country.

- GEN Combiner Victorion at ToysRUs for $200.
- GEN Combiners G2 Menasor and G2 Superion are also at ToysRUs stores, after only being available so far on the Target website.
- RID Power Surge Bumblebee & Sideswipe at Toyworlds for $60 (a world first retail sighting)
- RID Tiny Titans wave 6 at Coles.
- Rescue Bots Stations (small playsets) for $25 at ToysRUs (who are now stocking most of the Rescue Bots toys, when it was just Kmart before).
- And some 2014/2015 Kreo items have been found at a discount outlet store chain in Western Australia, including the RID Custom Kreons & a TF4 movie buildset.

Also here now are the RID Battlepack wave 1 toys - Optimus with Bludgeon, Sideswipe with Anvil - found at a couple of ToysRUs stores this weekend for $30 each.

PLUS, Combiner Wars Gen2 Bruticus and Computron at ToysRUs as well, for the usual $200.

Unlike the TF4 Movie 6-pack of 1-steps, this set has a remoulded Optimus toy, not just a redeco... and it is the only way you can get it.
Unfortunately, just like the Movie 6-pack, the other five toys all appear to be exact reissues of the regular single pack toys.

Plus, the ToysRUs exclusive RID Warriors of Starscream, Paralon and the white redeco of Power Surge Optimus have been found at a number of ToysRUs stores for $30 each.
And finally this week, the Rescue Bots Elite High Tide (similar to the 12 inch Titans), has been found at Kmart for $15. It should also come with Bumblebee, but wasn't yet found.

Spotted earlier this month was one of the latest Rescue Bots transforming toys - Hoist, which is another one of the first year character toys that have been redone and released in the current smaller size scale.

After a slow start to the year following the Christmas clearout (like last year), we are now getting some new items showing up in stores in the last week.
But first, two items I missed from December.
Mid December saw the long-lost RID Bumblebee Blaster from late 2015 appear at a Toyworld in Melbourne... but yet to be noticed anywhere else.
Then in late December, we saw the RID Combiner Force 1-step wave 1 appear, with the new mould Bumblebee, Drift and Optimus.

RID Legion Bisk has been found at a Woolworths store, along with Blurr, who is actually the "new" toy for the second wave of Combiner Force Legions, but since we missed the Bisk wave from 2016, his "repack" status in this wave makes him new to Australia.
And as for Rescue Bots, the new gimmick for 2017 has arrived - Flip Changers - with the first wave being found, containing Hoist, Heatwave, Medix and Optimus. Probably best wait for the frequent 30% off sales at Coles, as these are $12 each, but are only US$6 each in America... making them way overpriced here.
Also, the next wave of Rescue Bots "Friends" have been found at a Kmart in Perth, which has Valor the blue lion, and should also have Fireplug the white dog as well (an identical release to the one in the garage playset from last year).

That still leaves the Legends (Brawn & Roadburn) and the Deluxes (Kup, Perceptor, Krok, Quake, Topspin) to be found here... after being out in other countries since February.Quote:

Fans of Rescue Bots, we've had another surge of new toys in the last month here, with the Flip Changers (single and 3-packs), Rescue Team multi-packs, and the third wave of the Friends/Minicons (Swift the cheetah and Fireplug the dog).
