Why would I be buying these at such prices when the Hasbro one is at $200 for some listed in ebay or Takara version is under $180 delivered?Quote:

Beast hunters Knockout, vertebreak and Arcee and Rescue bots at Kmart Carousel .
Forgot to mention - at Innaloo shops on Monday, both Coles and Woolies had restocks, and both had Hun-Gurrs, so sounds like he's going to be easier to find for anyone who missed.
Target also had a BH Arcee, and either they or K-Mart had a few Fishface Megatron.
It probably caters to walk in customers with no clue on these toys availability online and their market rates... there's unfortunately always someone like that.Quote:

But seriously ... Hun-gurrs have been popping all over the joint ... I paid 15 plus shipping for it well before Christmas ...
Now I've got a second one to put on my desk at work, and people will look at it and I will say 'Up till about 2 weeks ago it was one of the rarest transformers in WA'
I'm sure I have had my Hun-Gurr for close to 6 months now. Never seen any up until now. There's 100s everywhere.:)Quote:

Meanwhile, their deluxes were limited to Laserback, and a lone Arcee I snagged - which rang up at only $10. So maybe older pre-BH figures are still discounted? If you're after stuff, ring it up to be sure.
They ALSO had wave 3 Kre-Ons (Kreons? KreOns?) - so here's a breakdown of the numbers on the packaging!
50 - Nosecone
51 - Thrust
52 - Nemesis Prime
53 - Ramjet
54 - Huffer
55 - Kickback
56 - Long Haul
57 - Guzzle
58 - Sharkticon
59 - Cheetor
60 - Beachcomber
61 - Seawing
(same order as on the back of the pack, but if you don't know where the sequence starts...)
meanwhile, Toyworld Balcatta is having a sale - if you're on their mailing list, they sent out a set of vouchers you could use for the next three days. Thing is, TF-wise? Lacking. There's a BH Soundwave and Laserback, some Construct-Bots, lots of those little racing cars (I forget the name off the top of my head), and a lone BH Weaponiser Prime.
Kinda off-topic ... but what are we expecting next? I know that soon TF$ stuff will start to show up, but what about the Gens stuff? I've heard that were not getting the first two waves of the deluxes or voyagers but what about Skids wave onwards?
Hey if anyone is still looking for Metroplex, I just found one on Gumtree for $100.00..

Well if anyone wants a Predaking, Kmart Garden City has em for $20. Here's proof http://puu.sh/6EiMC
Just popped into the Target up by Reid Hwy/Wanneroo Road crossover - LOTS of Cyberverse figures, including at least 4-5 Hun-Gurrs, as I predicted. A few Ripper-Snappers there too. Otherwise, nothing on sale. They also had one each of FoC Magnus, Sideswipe and Starscream. A Grimwing, Magnus and Shockwave as well. And lots of Ultra Predaking.
BH starscream deluxe, knock out and vetrebeck were in Rockingham Kmart. I grabbed the vet and there was only one left of the other two
Found Rescue Bots (non transforming) Blades at Kmart Armadale today, I could be wrong but I think this may be a first sighting for Aus for this little guy.
I think it might be a first sighting... was it the first version, or the one with translucent parts?
These are the ones are currently available at Kmart, as per PMQuote:

doh... I missed the word "non-transforming" in his post. :o Of course it's those ones... I might try to find some tomorrow, along with the new Construct-Bots.
That photo is such a tease.
If anyone's desperate for them, Perth Comics Centre has voyager Blitzwing, Springer and Sandstorm for $65 each.
Hi guys, first post here. Just spotted the takara tomy optimus prime & Gaia Unicron set @ Myer city for $99. There were 3 on the shelf if anyone is interested. I didn't take a photo but it was the same as this: http://www.robotkingdom.com/cny2013uni.html .
Is it so wrong the only part of that set I want is Unicron's little Mini-Con?
Is the Optimus any different from the normal Prime version?Quote:

I should have the official images of the two pack somewhere on my computer, but will need to find them.
From what I remember, both figures had a metallic paint job. Everything else looked the same.Quote:

If anyone is wanting a Metroplex, BigW Whitfords have 3 for $148 each. They are not in the Transformers section but a few aisles over in the bulky toys section.
Woolies has the new Beast Hunters legion White Ace Vehicon, blue streak, RotGut, and Divebomb.
Metroplex was on clearance at Myer Morley for approx $150.
I would presume that's Myer-wide.
Still happy I gotten mine at Target for $119ish.
Found Cyberverse Legion Rot Gut, Divebomb, Bluestreak and Ace Vehicon today at Coles Dog Swamp. Bought Rot Gut and Divebomb; there was only the one Ace there, but plenty of Bluestreak, Airachnid, and a single Hun-Grr.
Good to hear that they will show up at any Coles re-stocking, as well as Woolies.
Anyone wanting all four, just be aware that there is only one RotGut per case of 12, and just two of each of the other three new figures... so get in fast when a new case arrives.
When I got mine they had 2 of each including Rot Gut.Quote:

I saw 2 Rot Guts Friday night at Woolies Midland so must be more than 1 per case.Quote:

This may mean that Kmart stores could be receivng them as well, as per the previous wave of multilingual carded figures.
unless they put 2 cases out.Quote:
