Redbank Plaza Kmart had the 2x Topspin, Perceptor and Kup for $25.
Toyworld there has the Blurr and Soundwave Rid Warriors for $35.
Garden City ToysRUs has all of the Movie exclusives except Infernicus - which is the Deluxe Optimus 2-pack, DLX Skullitron, DLX Megatron, both Legion 2-packs.
Thanks Griffin. I just went up tonight from the coast, and picked both the deluxes up. Skullitrin is SO awesome in person - I just love the head sculpt with his single beady red eyeQuote:

And ToysRUs at Garden City, with most of the new Movie exclusives...

The price of Skullitron and Megatron is $40. Those shelf tags for $25 were for something else.
Haven't had a chance to get to Brisbane from Toowoomba since my fourth child was born earlier this year until today, wanted to grab those movie exclusives from Toys R Us at Garden City 'cause who knows when I'd be back, but Megatron had sold out ... bugger. Still three Skullitron's left, and plenty of the Optimus 2-packs and legion 2-packs. Didn't have time to go to Aspley unfortunately.
That was really surprising, to disappear within 2-3 days, considering the price ($40), which is even more than their regular deluxe toys ($35).Quote:

The Skullitrons were still there today.
They got in the Rescue Bots Flip Racer single packs in the last few days, for $15 though (just about everywhere else has them for $12).

Also at Garden City, at BigW...
I found some Movie toys near the Layby counter, and RID Legions in a wire basket near the registers.

And at Kmart Sunnybank, they finally got in the full wave 4 Generations toys (minus one Perceptor, which was the one I was missing). Plus the wave 2 Movie Transforming Titan Megatron, and two of the three RID Pez for just $1.75 each.

Barney the Purple Dinosaur is at BIG W Runaway Bay in the center isle. There were 9 of them (guessing one sold already?) but still scanning in at $298
Also a palette of Transformers Last Knight / Titan Returns and RID figures. There were EIGHT of Voyager Broadside (no other voyagers in section). All TLK were Wave 1 figures, sadly. So we will have to wait for them to clear first before we see restocks.
Trypticon is available and on sale at Springfield Big W.
If you are after Trypticon at Big W Gladstone we have 4 available for 8am tomorrow. We also have a bunch of Voyager Broadside's on a TLK display and also a ton of Getaway's, Twinferno's and one other from that wave I've forgotten on the reverse side of the TLK stand. TLK stuff is almost completely full.
At BigW Calamvale yesterday.
The regular section (this is a very small store).
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017bw25.jpg
And the Movie 1-steps that were put out 10 minutes before they close.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017bw26.jpg
Big W Underwood and Garden City most likely out of Trypticons as couldn't find any on the floor, so best to ask the staff.
Garden City had everything including a number of Titans Return Broadside for $49 and a restock of the RiD Warriors for $20 (Soundwave, Blurr etc).
Underwood was very limited in stock, with TLK Deluxes and one TLK Voyager Grimlock.
BigW garden city had the Trypticon toys at the front desk like previous years. There were 8 left at 8.30am.
Pics here on facebook.
3 Trypticons at big w calamvale. Right in the back corner of the store wow!
http://i1152.photobucket.com/albums/...pswbcdmqdn.jpg
No Trypticons left at Garden City, but Carindale has 4 at time of writing
Big W Runaway Bay seems to have only sold half their Trypticons so if anyone is still looking there are four remaining. Tiny turbo changers have been drained, but almost none of the RiD legions or 1steps have sold. Still quite a few Broadside too for those looking.
Judging by the sales on tiny turbo changers, I am hoping the line is a success and we will see future waves. Anyone seen Wave 2 yet still retail?
Garden City Toys R Us had Wave 2 TLK Voyagers Megatron and Hound. One of each left (unless more is hidden within the swarms of Grimlock and Optimus), $49.99 but can easily pricematch to Big W's sale price.
Saw 3 trypticons still at Strathpine behind the av counter, so mint and untouched/kicked/handled boxes that aren't on endcaps or shelves.
Big Robina has new wave of RID Crash Combiners (Shockwavenado) and Wave 2 of the Dicky ( heh heh. He said dick) metal cars (I saw Autobot Drift, a Grimlock, and some Bumblebee repaint)
I took one of the Shocknado's. No sign of Trypy
I stopped by Kmart Helensvale and the entire voyager shelf was stacked with TLK voyager Hounds and Megatrons.
Thanks for that tip off Bowser. Once again you've saved me lots of time and frustration catching myself a Megatron. There were still quite a few there this afternoon (though quite a lot more Hound than Megs now).Quote:

Found the latest wave of RiD Legions with Heatseeker at Springwood Target. No sign of Cyclonus though but looked like a fresh case, so maybe we got a revision wave?
Does not scan but $8 shelf tag.
http://i.imgur.com/99NKzQs.jpg
Target Runaway Bay has the Cyclonus and Heatseaker legions, Titans Return Kup/Perceptor Wave (Two Perceptor, 1 Kup!) and Megatron 1-Steps. I think must be a restock for the upcoming sale. Lots of Tiny Turbo Changers but only Wave 1
I couldn't find wave 2 Last Knight voyagers anywhere in Brisbane CBD yesterday. This inconsistent release business drives me mad.
ToysRUs Garden city had a couple last week. I haven't looked since then though.Quote:

Last Thursday Garden City TRU had one TLK Megs and Hound at the back of the shelf. They came home with me...:o
Myers CBD now has a transformers display. Nothing interesting unless you want a Fortress Maximus. They got tonnes of them.
Also saw a Kup in Target.
Well, further confirmation that whoever orders transformers for Toys R Us have no idea what they're doing. I count 14 Grimlocks and there are gallons of Broadsides at Garden City, but no more Wave 2 TLK voyagers. Guessing they'll be warming shelves for a good long while.
Some old and recent sightings (I found some older photos on the computer that I forgot to post up last week).
Kmart Sunnybank June 29th - the newest Rescue Bots "rescan" bot has arrived, Brushfire.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017km32.jpg
Reject Shop Sunnybank on the same day - the new figurine capsules, with a figurine, sticker, and candy. I think they were $1 at the Reject Shop, while Kmart have them for $2.

http://www.toycollectors.com.au/news/2017/072202.jpg
July 3rd at ToysRUS Garden City - Plenty of Movie exclusives (at that time - they have since been sold), wave 2 Voyagers (only Hound was left), and RC Sqweeks.

July 17th.
ToysRUs, two weeks later - a restock of RID Warriors, with 10 different figures now available (an instant collection, and no Bumblebees :p ), along with wave 3 Crash Combiners (with Shocknado and Dragbreak). Plus, heaps of GEN Voyager Broadsides now, and most of the Movie exclusives are gone.
They have a heap of wave one Movie Deluxes, so I doubt we will see wave 2 or 3 at this store.

Zing Garden City - Masterpiece Bumblebee ($148), wave 2 Voyagers ($55), and wave 1 Deluxes ($35). After having really great prices for Generations, it is a surprising and disappointing that they are looking to be one of the most expensive for Movie toys.
They also had the RID PEZ dispensers for $5, significantly more than Kmart's $1.75.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017z13.jpg
.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017z14.jpg
The Reject Shop had the Movie candy capsules that were at the Sunnybank store (above).
Myer - now has Movie toys, but barely half a dozen, and all really expensive. Prices have been added to our price comparison listing.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017m10.jpg
.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017m11.jpg
BigW - more of the licensed RID diecast vehicles, and wave 3 Titanmasters (which is new for them, as they have been sitting on wave 2 for about 10 months).
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017bw27.jpg
.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017bw28.jpg
Target - they had the newest wave of RID Legions (Cyclonus and Heatseeker), and the new kids clothing.

And finally at Garden City on this day, Kmart - I found the licensed RID candy dispensers that Megatran had mentioned somewhere a couple weeks back, as well as the Movie candy torches.
Plus, the 2016 RID Legions that Mel found in a Victorian Kmart 2 weeks ago.
They also had a heap of the GEN Voyager Broadsides, similar to BigW and ToysRUs, so it should be pretty easy to get one now... but it may not be as popular to regular shoppers like Optimus or Megatron, so could end up shelfwarming everywhere, preventing Blitzwing and Octone/Octane showing up here.

And then on July 20th, I was checking out Springwood Target (looking for the Titanmasters Shuffler and Repugnus that everyone had been finding at Target stores lately, but they didn't have them) - they had wave 2 Movie 1-steps (Megatron, Grimlock, Berzerker), plus the last two waves of RID Warriors.

Well, that catches me up... hope some of it was useful to someone. :p
Big W Runaway Bay now has TLK Wave 2 Turbo Changer Megatron, plenty of Wave 4 Titans Return Deluxes, and Titan Returns Broadside (palette display), and rID Windblade figures
Everybody shuffling at target Mt Ommaney. only one each left of the new wave

I moved to back off peg to avoid impulse buyers :cool:
I don't have anywhere to post my photo, but I have just seen Octone at Kmart Burpengary. No sign of Blitzwing there.
Cairns ToysRUs had Infernocus and the other Movie exclusives, plus the new Allspark Cube figures (without the cube), as well as a number of Hasbro and JP combiner boxsets on clearance (photos to come).
I just want to say, that the Cairns store, servicing about 150,000 people, has a greater range of Transformers toys and about double the amount of stock than the Garden Cit store which has to cater to 1.5 million people on the southern half of Brisbane and the Gold Coast.
Mmmm, I see an excuse to go get another $1 ikea hotdog.... I mean check out Kmart at northlakes. :)Quote:

Woolworths Sunnybank today, with the RID Legions now on clearance, so they mustn't be restocking them anymore now. The Blurr wave was probably the last one with them if no more are going to show up at Woolies.
http://www.toycollectors.com.au/2017ww05.jpg
I found Transformers in four different locations in the Cairns TRU store, because they had so many.Quote:

A very small selection of Rescue Bots... but there might have been more that I missed as these were all just Flip Racers (including the new launcher sets).

The main Transformers section in the store, and just look at how many toys they have for this small city.

Zing - Movie Leader Optimus for $95 (means they are now stocking the three main sizes of the Movie Premier Edition toyline), and four Optimus Helmets, plus a 7-pack of Super Deformed Figures. Also found was a 4-pack of Movie drink coasters for $10.

Toyworld - a first sighting of RID Warrior Bludgeon wave, which has the re-release of the Power Surge Optimus (I only found those two left - someone must have already bought the Twinferno and Thermidor). Their Warriors are $35 though, so I didn't buy that Bludgeon.
They also had the new wave of 1-steps (Heatseeker and Strongarm), and the licensed RID diecast vehicles for $10 each.

I still haven't found Generations Blitzwing, Octone, Shuffler and Repugnus yet.
Big W Taigum has the Bludgeon wave of RID combiner force (save with the sale, not toyworld's pricing), saw them tonight hunting for a Blitzwing. Figure it'll be a while though with their multiple Broadsides taking up shelf space.
I got a Repugnus and Shuffler quite some time ago, was I lucky or something ?
People are finding them all over the place in Target stores, but not in my part of the south side of Brisbane it seems.Quote:

Is there still a Computron is SEQLD? I haven't seen one in a while. Half tempted, finally.
Garden City doesn't stock exclusives... so maybe Aspley?Quote:
