The rest of the legion abominus wave is in and constructaboys at kmart. Garden city
There you go griffin! :p
Big Top Mr Toys in upper mt gravatt, has some reveal the shield figures, Perceptor, Special Ops Jazz, Bumblebee, Turbo Tracks. Also a bunch of legion Gold Bumblebees, some DotM figures and a few from Prime and Beast Hunters.
nothing new up here. as usual. it seems the trucks only go as far as the sunshine coast and then turn around. it seems that we have had the same stuff on the shelves for ever and there just nothing new getting here. it's not only tf's but i have noticed it with other toys as well. it's so depressing.
NO SIGHTINGS at Big W and Toyworld Runaway bay of the construction bots, or anything by Wave 1 legions for Beast Hunters. Might save you a trip down this end of the coast if they're unavailable down south.
Thanks for the heads up, was about to swing by and check it out. By the looks of it Toyword at the moment are the only ones to get the two pack. Australia Fair my be a good place to check out, I think as a bigger store they might get first.Quote:

For those who have seen reviews out there about starscream missing paint apps on face, I can confirm that at least some, if not all, are like that here. My Starcream is missing the paint.
I was in runaway bay big w on Friday and they had construct bots ironhide, starscream, wheeljack and Soundwave. They were with the Lego section not the transformers.
heh heh, that's so funny. No WONDER I couldn't see them. I'll swing by this afternoon, thanks for the headsup!Quote:

I like the look of wave 2, smokescreen and breakdown ook pretty cool
Kmart Morayfield has 1 sharkticon megs, I'm not a fan of it. Everything else in all stores same old same old :(
kmart morayfield and the target there use to be chockers with tf's a few years ago and the toyworld up the road use to be even better. you could get any tf's there that you couldn't find anywhere else and TF lines that had finished up yrs ago, like rid swindle(5 of them sat there till 2005-06. i even got 2 of them).
Constrctabots are available at Big W Gladstone.
they had those little kreo bags thingies at big W. there were only a couple left tho. didn't see prices.
Which wave?Quote:

After checking there 3 times a week for the last three weeks, Woolies Sunnybank finally got in the three Legion Terrorcons (either Friday or Saturday). Yesterday I picked up two, and went back today to look for the third and saw that all were now gone.
I only picked up two yesterday because I thought it was two Blight's at the back of the peg (half obscured behind Movie Legends toys). I saw two blue and white toys in their bubbles and just grabbed one (thinking they were both Blight) and dropped it in the basket as I then grabbed a purple/cream toy (Windrazor). I shoulda read the actual card, because when I got home and found that I had Rippersnapper, I just had this bad feeling that maybe they did actually have all three... so I went back today to check if the other blue and white one was Blight, but none were left.
(in other words, this was originally a sighting for the Terrorcons, but now it is just a note to others to not bother with the Sunnybank store for the Terrorcons now that their case has come and gone)
Ah well... time to start looking at other stores now.
the new wave commanders are at parkside woolies. so they should be at all the other woolies here in townsville(all 14 of them)
It looks like the new wave of Cyberverse Legions and Commanders have hit Woolworths in Rocky, too. I picked up the last Hardshell, Rippersnapper, and Windrazor in Allenstown, but I guess someone else must have got to Blight before me. I'll be searching the other stores for it later in the week. There's still one Shockwave left at Allenstown.
i remember my great grandmother taking me to allenstown many,many years ago. it wasn't a good place back then to get tf's or anything cool. you had to go over to kmart shopping centre just over the bridge there. the venture's store there had the best selection of tf's and joe's you could get anywhere.
They've recently refurbished the shopping mall in Allenstown, but there are no dedicated toy stores. There is now a branch of the reject shop and Woolies sell the usual things, but that's it.Quote:

No idea if it's still there. But Rocky is basically still like that. It's a small mining town with not much aspiration to be anything else. I'm only here because the girlfriend's job is here and she makes better money than I do. I'll be out at the first chance we get.Quote:

Woolies Chancellor Park had a whole box of the BH Leader class (i think they are), Starscream, Shockwave, OP etc just sitting on the floor opened. I think someone was a little keen. Didn't pick any up so they should still be there for all you Coasties out there.
BigW Carindale has heaps of the Movie Optimus nerf blaster for $35 (it fires about 10 darts).
Plus a Sharkticon Megatron, a couple of Deluxe Airachnids and Legion Airachnids, as well as the small two sizes of Construct-Bots.
They have the Cyberverse Vehicle sets as well - TFPrime ones for $15 (so cheap) and the Beast Hunter ones for $34.
Woolies there has the second wave of Legion BH (Prowl, Soundwave, Hun-Grrr).

Haven't looked in those stores for a couple of weeks so I am doubting they will be there as they have had the same stuff for quite a while. Big W has the Constructbots and they are also pretty slow with getting anything new or taking any pride in the shelves appearance.
Carindale Target has the full range of wave 1 Constructbots, plus Beast Hunters DLX Ratchet & Dreadwing, BH Voyager Ultra Magnus & Grimwing, and several GEN Voyager Souundwave. Also a couple Ultimate Optimus & Predaking and wave 1 Kreon Microchangers.
You will have to be more specific. If you are after Generations Series 1 (FOC) it was released late 2012 early 2013, you may still be able to get some old stock if you look hard enough. Generations Series 2 (AKA IDW waves) are not getting released in Australia you will need to buy from the US, EU or Asia.Quote:

Blight, Rippersnapper and the other one you're missing. Kmart, $7.
I know this is a QLD Sightings section, but I was on holidays last week just south of the border in Byron Bay.
They have a Toy Kingdom there, I was checking it out and was surprised to see they had wave 4 beast hunters - knockout and vertebreak + they had a RID Arcee.
So for anyone keen about 1/2 hour south of border.
