Bruticus in SDCC colors is mighty tempting, especially with the upcoming choices in 3rd party enhancements to make the guy at least try to look like the game... But that price is a wee bit hard on the wallet. Surprising spot... I didn't even know this was expected to come here!Quote:

Hey guys, the CIVIC Video Rental store at Maddington has a few Transformers on sale. Some stuff from Cybertron and the Movies. Some gems included a Cybertron Deluxe Armada Optimus Prime (which I grabbed, sorry :D), a Cybertron Deluxe Jungle Optimus Prime (Primal), and a DOTM Deluxe Thundercracker.
Toys were MISB as far as I could tell, and were quite decent prices. The Cybertron deluxes were $25 and were the most expensive.
I asked and apparently the owner is a big fan who is selling part of his collection. He might even sell more in the future. I wonder if he is a member here?

FWIW, I bought a Metroplex the other day at full price (in case I missed out) at the Big W, Kingsway; today, on my way to work, I bought another at the sale price, then returned the new one to the Big W Joondalup store, with the old receipt. So Big W Joondalup should have/had at least one extra one in stock as of 8:40 this morning.
Tried getting metroplex. Belmont, Canning Vale, and Riverton all out.
I was at Belmont 8pm last night and they had 2 on the shelf.:confused:Quote:

Garaeski,
There's quite a few left at Ellenbrook.
Good find for WA, 0 at Livingston . (for metroplex)Quote:

I work near there.
Again would like help from Morley and Joondaloop TRUs to check those.
I will try Cannington and Innaloo. But Cannington helpdesk doesn't seem that great.
MP SOUNDWAVE! I WANT!!!Quote:

Spoke to TRU Cannington and was told 1 to 1-1/2 weeks away for the MP's. I bought Acidstorm off ebay as I don't have the time to be able get down to TRU on a regular basis and who knows how many will show up in Perth anyway:rolleyes:

Saw 11 metroplex at big w cockburn for 98 still
Just spoke to TRU Joondalup, they said they don't do reservations or hold items during the lead up to Xmas. That will make things very interesting...
At Cockburn? Man, that's interesting, I live 5 minutes from there. I'm just not getting the love for that figure, but maybe I should take the plunge?Quote:

BTW, Big W Joondalup had a few Metroplex's on the shelf today. They weren't in the tf section though, they were a couple of aisles over.
Another reason why I don't bother about misb status and yours is a good example.Quote:

I don't take a lot of convincing ;)
Will see if there's any there tomorrow still.
Thanks!
Big W Karrinyup has a couple of Metroplexs at the front of the store. Beast Hunters Shockwave in the toy section as well. I like his spinny gun arm. :o
Spotted a Botshots Thundercracker and Topspin at Coles Mirrabooka today. Also DOTM Commander Blackout and Powerglide...$16 each though.
Also at Toys for Kids in Malaga, there was a ROTF Leader Jetfire and Takara Jetwing Optimus and a Transformers Universe Optimus Prime with Trailer set for $120.
I could not find a SINGLE Transformer in BigW Mirrabooka either. Went up and down the aisles numerous times.:mad:
They are having a refit in toysQuote:
