BigW Kuraby doesn't have anything "new" left, other than three Cyberverse Spark Armor Optimus/Ark packs. I bought the only Siege wave 3 toy there, and most of what is left is just small carded figures.

BigW Kuraby doesn't have anything "new" left, other than three Cyberverse Spark Armor Optimus/Ark packs. I bought the only Siege wave 3 toy there, and most of what is left is just small carded figures.
Orion shopping centre, target, had 4 x SS KSI boss and 1 x SS long haul, now none as I bought long haul. Toowoomba grand central Myer has POTP hun grr and Elita 1.
Today (Sunday) at Garden City.
BigW had the new Cyberverse Ultra Alpha Trion (they had two... now just one), and HAD the new 1-step Shockwave.
Nothing else new.
Kmart had two Hounds, which means that they had at least one case of wave 3 Siege Deluxes... but none of them were there. They had a huge restock of the Rescue Bots flip-racers, at the new cheap $5 price. All wave 2 and 1 though.
All five of their Botbots 8-packs had their hidden figures stolen, which is probably the main flaw of having an easy access gimmick of punching the toy through the back of the card.
Target had nothing new, but the TFs had been moved to a new part of the toy section.
Myer also had nothing new.

Today at BigW Calamvale...
About 300 Bumblebee Movie Legion toys still remain... they just haven't been able to sell many of them since they got them in about 6 months ago.

A decent amount at this fairly small store, just no Siege other than two Battlemasters.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2019bw48.jpg
The newest Studio Series - only Drift and Hightower left.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2019bw49.jpg
The newest Cyberverse 1-steps Shockwave and Skybyte.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2019bw50.jpg
And the newest Cyberverse Ultra Alpha Trion.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2019bw51.jpg
I also found a large range of these new "Worlds Smallest" toys, which are licensed from the major toy companies Hasbro and Mattel... and apparently there are some Transformers coming soon from them. As such, we might get them here if these are popular enough. Something to keep an eye out for if they come here.

This BigW also had a LOT of these combiner number-bots (each has a vehicle mode and number mode and combines). For a small BigW store, they seem to bog themselves down with a lot of random items that aren't that popular.

This year's Transformers offering is a bit boring... it seems to have very similar artwork on every item.
It is Bumblebee themed, but not "Movie" Bumblebee. And not "Gen1" enough to be aimed at the older fans.
For $26, and there isn't really anything in it that I'd want either.

Okay. So since Siege Wave 3 and SS Ironhide were spotted I have been doing regular rounds of
Buranda (Target)
Cannon Hill (Kmart)
Carindale (Big W, Kidstuff, Myer, Target)
Garden City (Big W, Kidstuff, Kmart, Myer, Target)
Springfield Orion (Big W, Kidstuff, Target)
It has been long and painful. I haven't seen a Refractor or SS Ironhide & Optimus yet. I finally found a Long Haul today. (Cheers to the fellow collector who grabbed the other one at Carindale Target) I managed to get around to all of them today and this is what I could see.
Buranda (Target [Nothing new. OTOH no remains suggesting they haven't been stocked yet])
Cannon Hill (Kmart [Nothing new. OTOH no remains suggesting they haven't been stocked yet])
Carindale (Big W [Nothing new. OTOH no remains suggesting they haven't been stocked yet], Kidstuff [Nothing new. OTOH no remains suggesting they haven't been stocked yet], Myer [Nothing new. OTOH no remains suggesting they haven't been stocked yet. Lots of Siege Shockwaves and some Ultra Magnuses], Target [A couple of KSI Bosses left.])
Garden City (Big W [Nothing new bet we know they had the latest SS Deluxes, Kidstuff [Nothing new. OTOH no remains suggesting they haven't been stocked yet], Kmart [Nothing new. But we know Siege W3 has been through.], Myer [Nothing new. OTOH no remains suggesting they haven't been stocked yet], Target [There is a Red Alert and a Hound. Guess that means Target is stocking Siege W3. There are some Rampages left.])
Springfield Orion (Big W [Has a Hightower left], Kidstuff [Nothing new. OTOH no remains suggesting they haven't been stocked yet], Target [Has some KSI bosses left.])
Big W Stocklands Burleigh Heads
1x Studio Series Hightower (top right corner of the box is damaged though)
Mr Toys Toyworld Burleigh
They had a trolley of toys including Studio Series Hightower, Car mode Dropkick, Drift, 2x Bumblebee film Optimus and 2x Rampage that they were about to put on the shelves soon.
