Ta, but they're not mine. I grabbed them off of some ebay auction last week. Just thought it was worth letting people know there's more than one way to set him up.

And don't forget the elbow trick for Bruticus' tank arms, that works a treat too.

Saw that too. Although there was only 1 Superion when I got there

Is this the thread you're referring too? :)

$100 is a little steep for the quality, plus the fact that this is the version without the DVD. :(

With myself and Icy's craze last night and based on what we grabbed, I think at Myer Southland, there should be

- 1 more 25th anniversary prime at $99.95
- 2 more of each Superion and Bruticus at $69.95 each

Sorry no more 20% off sale like there was last night.

Maybe its harder to tell from pictures, but as far I can tell theres nothing particularly bad about the quality? How do you determine whats of good quality or not besides obvious bad paint jobs?

And for those who might have missed the alternate arm transformation for Superion...

That's awesome. Here's an alternate arm transformation for Bruticus. It has improved elbow articulation and the helicopter cockpits look good on the shoulders:

I was just about to post something like that! :D

K-Mart Campbellfield has plenty of Ultras (powerglide and Onslaught) and and wave 1 Deluxes except Octane (Tankor). Legends Onslaught, Starscream, Red Alert but nada new.

Went to Myer at both HOBART and LAUNCESTON today, looking for the Bruticus and Superion sets, but to no avail...useless distribution system :mad::mad::mad:

Strangely, the toy sale began in Hobart today, with Superion (and presumably Bruticus) advertised at $50. That's ridiculously good value for anyone interested in these. Supposedly the Hobart catalogue was misprinted as starting today, anyone else know if there's any Myers around Oz already running the sale...?

Oh, and Pinktimus Prime is on sale too for $80 for anyone with more money than sense. About the only reason I could see for picking him up is to give Classics Prime a trailer...
