SA Transformers Sightings.

Hey everyone,

I've been searching for ROTF Voyager Long Haul for a while now, I live in the North-Western suburbs and have checked most of the shops in those regions (KMarts, Targets, TTP, Arndale, Port Adelaide, West Lakes, TRU Gepps Cross, Big Ws) but have had no success. Has anyone seen one around their areas?
Thanks heaps if you can help,

Skywarp.

PS. I'm just a couple of Transformers away from owning every single one that has appeared in the live-action movies (apart from those that have not had a toy made of them yet like ROTF Elita-One).

I remember seeing long haul at Golden grove Big W, but that was a while ago

Thanks heaps Gutsman_Heavy, I'll have a look into it. Any particular figures you're looking out for that I might have potentially seen?

There's nothing out that interests me these days :(

good luck with the Long Haul, I personally want the Yellow Redeco, I loves it!

Nothing much new down my way.
Kmart Noarlunga hasn't restocked anything.
Noarlunga Big W have put out the RotF Voyager Mindwipes and Defender Optimus Primes plus more of animated deluxes i.e. Blazing Lockdown, Swindle, Blur and even Bumblebee.

Went and checked out the Target sale at Hollywood Plaza, hoping they'd have Mindwipe there, but no dice. Anyone had any luck with the newer Voyagers at Target?

There a few Mindwipes at Port Adelaide KMart for $49, I was just there today around 3:30PM. Mindwipes and Defender Optimus Prime.

The Rundle/Pulteney Corner Target has no newer ROTF Voyagers, just one The Fallen. But it did reduce the Star Wars Transformers prices down to a mere $15, but I only saw three left - a Battle Droid/AAT, a Y-Wing Bomber/Anakin Skywalker, a Magna Guard/Magna Guard Space ship. Also, I saw a two-pack Legends of the Autobot Twins for about $13 at Target CBD. Only one left. And there are plenty of Leader Jetfires and at least 1 Leader Optimus Prime. The NEST line Battle BUmblebee and Soundwave two-packs are priced at $40, was tempeted to get it but figured I better save my money because I already have those characters but in different molds.

And the rumours about Target reducing the price of Universe Optimus Prime and Crumplezone boxsets to a $50 doesn't seem to apply to this Target or the Target on Main North Road.

If anyone is looking for ROTF Voyager Starscream, there are about 3 left at Big W Arndale.

Today I also visited TRU Gepps Cross. There are still the old wave Deluxes (up to Gears, but no Thrust), and the prices of Universe Ultras have been reduced. Decepticon Bruticus is only about $30 (FOR AN ULTRA!), while others like Darkwing and Countdown (Countdown was in the summer toys section for some reason) are $50 as opposed to $70. There are still some Shanghai Showdown sets left. Also, Animated Leaders like Black Megatron, Bulkhead (green truck?), and Megatron are ONLY $40.

I bid you luck in getting Mindwipe Sofaman!!!!

Yeah if I can't find a Long Haul at all I might as well just get Payload (Yellow Redeco) which is said to be hitting our shelves midyear, which is around when a Toy Fair i read in other threads is on in Adelaide. So maybe I might run into Long Haul there as well, oh the possibilities! :eek:

Thanks man. I'm mostly being cheap and want to get it for 20% off; it's been hell holding off, but I'm not paying $49 for a Voyager. :D

I actually saw mindwipe with the optimus redeco in TTP Target last Tuesday when I went to pick up the Wheelie/Sideways pack. With the Target current 20% off sale, he should be around 40 right??? Given that he's still there at least...
