SA Transformers Sightings.

I missed out on the group meet, so I went to Toys R Us Gepps Cross and Big W Arndale, so here's my sightnings:

TRU Gepps Cross is in the midst of a sale, like damnyouhussies pointed out the animated leaders are down to $40 with only Bulkheads and Black Megatrons, Universe Bruticus is cheaper ($35?) and so are the Springer/Ratbat 2-packs ($40). They've stocked plenty of new Battle Op Bumbelbees, next to the plentiful ROTF Ultimate Bumblbees (sigh).

At Big W Arndale, the HFTD and the ROTF deluxes are thinning greatly, leaving a large space that is going to be filled with more TFs... maybe time to start stocking Wave 2 of HFTDs??

Well, NSW or VIC (cant remember which) has Wave 2 in their Big Wubbleyou's, so ours can't be too far off (crosses fingers). It's funny you pointed out the two BB's together, because I said to BigPenny in town that it's like they are rubbing BOBB in the faces of those who bought UBB displaying them together like that =oP

Yeah I know that Bumblebee has a huge appeal to the younger audiences of the movie line but Hasbro should stop making so many BB toys and start re-releasing the 2006 Classics line again for those that started collecting after they cleared the shelves :D hehehehe

Spotted the new Stealth Force Deluxe Figures (Sideways, Gears and Autobot Hound) at Big W Arndale, priced at $18 I think.

Also saw the ROTF Legends figures for under $3 each, should also be on sale at the other Big Ws too.

K-Mart Port Adelaide are currently selling the ROTF-NEST Cannon Bumblebee Vs Infiltrator Soundwave for $39, also spotted the brand new RPMS (with white packaging)

And here are some pics I've accumulated over the week on my phone...

At Big W Arndale:

Big W gets competitive about PCCs against K-Mart

Picked up PCC 5-packs Double Clutch and Mudslinger from Gepps Cross TRU on sale for $31.99 each.

Bought an Optimus Prime Gravity Bot as a gift for a friend's kid, bringing me over $75 for a free Recon Ravage! :D

I saw both Mudslinger and Double Clutch PCC 5 packs at Big W Noarlunga and Seaford.

*Edit*
I forgot to mention, I also spotted all the new Stealth Force toys at Big W Noarlunga.

City Toyworld had WFC Megatron and Darkmount. Still at least one Megs there but I took the last Darkmount.

I thought Soundwave and Red Alert were supposed to be in the same wave?

Ah I wouldn't worry about it too much, I trust stores like K-Mart, Big W, Target and Toys R Us will also start stocking those toys too
