Pretty much the same at Target Belconnen as wellQuote:

Big W Woden has put out the new Microchanger blind bags (Nightbeat etc) and Combiners (Grimstone, Obsidian, Lazerbolt, Volcanicon).
Big W Majura Park has these alsoQuote:

So most stuff should be pretty easy to find now. Voyagers are probably the things I've seen the least. Actually I haven't seen the Leaders anywhere either.
Have you seen any scorn deluxes? I havent been able to find any so far.Quote:

Toyworld now has no deluxes out except a lone High Octane Bee. Heaps of power battlers, voyagers, leaders, and all the construct-bots including the Dino Warrior pairs which I haven't seen anywhere else.
I don't get all the voyager Grimlock hate, I think he looks much better than the leader.
I think the hate is more aimed at the fact that we have a Leader class Prime & Grimlock as well as Voyager Class Prime & Grimlock all released at the same time. It would have been better to have voyager Galvatron instead of Grimlock.Quote:

I'd settle for any Decepticons at all right now!
Haha... I have been thinking the same thingQuote:

Yeah, saw scorn & slug at big-w Gungahlin over the weekend, perhaps gone now then. Word to the wise, I picked up both from Target Belconnen last week, but they were hiding behind the quick changers that are about the same size. Perhaps a mix up when they stocked the shelves, but weirdly they also scanned constructo-bots at the register.Quote:

Big W Civic has AOE stuff in
Toys R Us Belconnen has the AOE Deluxes and Voyagers in stock :)
Just found the repackaged Legends in Civic Target, first time I've seen them. Ugly little things compared to the excellent Legends we get now.
They still have reveal the shield branding on the backQuote:

Kmart Belconnen have had those for about a week now. Pretty ordinary 'repaint'Quote:

Hopefully the second waves of voyagers (high hopes for Hound; Galvatron looks awful without extra paint) and construct-bots (adorable tiny Crosshairs!!) will follow shortly.
Any left?Quote:

Didn't see wave 2 voyagers, but didn't actually look at the construct-bots. -.-
Expected to regret buying deluxe Drift, but he's okay. Slash on the other hand is rubbish. Some cool little pieces of engineering in the middle of a weird, ugly mess. I think I need to come to grips with his transformation better but even so, I can't see any way that he's going to win me over. All the Dinobots are a bit, uh, chaotic -- but Slash is the first one where the end result isn't something I love.
Strafe is awesome, probably #2 deluxe after Scorn.
Woden does have the wave 2 contsruct-bot Dinobots (Slash and Scorn) but not the Riders to go with them. -.-
I managed to pick up Scorn, Strafe and Drift from Big W Tuggeranong
Still heaps there
Picked up YotS Optimus from Myer in Belconnen yesterday. Still another 10 or so there, so looks like they're gearing up for the sale that starts on the 9th.
Do you mean Year of the Horse MP Optimus?Quote:

I like the deco on that Cyberverse Prime. Battle Masters Prime looks kind of cool but there's a weirdly small amount of Megatron in Battle Masters Megs.
Toyworld now has the ENORMOUS Stomp & Chomp Grimlock which I haven't seen anywhere else. It is HUGE.
Woden Big W has expanded their AoE shelfspace dramatically and now has the AoE Legions and the Construct-Bots "Dinofire" Grimlock & OP set.
I still haven't seen wave two Voyagers, wave 2 Dinobot Riders or the Goldie mini-figures anywhere.
Did you find a price for him?Quote:

I picked up the goldie G1 Optimus & Megatron from TRU Belconnen about 2 weeks ago. $5 each, still quite a number of various characters there.
Saw the AoE wave 2 voyagers in TRU Belco yesterday, and the optimus & grimlock 2 pack in Target Belco ($60). The chrome grimlock is nice, but not digging the forced G1 colors, and his weapons seem to be almost pink rather than red.

I just saw the wave two Voyagers for the first time in Majura Park Big W. the TRU there has bugger all -- the display at the front has a lot of empty pegs showing. Not that there was anything new or interesting there anyway.
Belconnen TRU also has Rescue Bots Optimus Primal, who is huge and awesome. He was in the display at the front of the store, but was on a shelf belonging to something else - he didn't scan at the register; eventually they figured out he was supposed to be $70 but they sold him at the price on the shelf ($50, for some completely different product) so that was cool.
Toyworld now has the single figure Mashers -- Prime, Megatron, Starscream, Bee, Drift, Bulkhead. Had seen the bigger ones in TRU but not the individuals.
If anyone was still wondering about the price of Stomp & Chomp Grimlock, he's $150.
Nice score!Quote:
