GEN Netflix wave 1 now out at Kmart

Back in February we were given the advance warning by Hasbro Australia that the Generations Netflix toys would be coming to Kmart in June, and sure enough, the Deluxe and Voyager toys have just been found at several Kmarts today.

We have five Deluxe toys - Chromia, Sideswipe, Hound, Scrapface, Mirage - for $29 each.
And we have the two Voyager packs - Hotlink with Heatstroke & Heartburn, and Megatron with Pinpointer & Lionizer - for $49 each.

The Ultra Magnus pack hasn't been seen yet, but we are supposed to be getting it.
(none of the Netflix toys show up yet on the Kmart website either)

Just note that the price of the Voyager packs of $49 is the same as their regular Voyager toys, despite having two Battlemasters included, which would cost about $20 on their own. Even in America, the Netflix Voyager packs are more expensive than their regular Voyager toys, at US$40 compared to the usual US$30.
So... if you can afford it after just buying Skylynx, maybe prioritise the Voyagers in case Kmart realise that they are under-priced and decide to change it to something higher.

Can't wait to get poor man's skywarp.

Seen tonight. Picked up a few.

Called around this morning to lock in a full set + 2 scrapfaces... can’t remember last time I got 9 deluxe + in one hit!

Heartburn & Heatstroke. Hahahaha...

+1
Think the paint app is actually better than Siege Skywarp.

Gotta say I'm pretty happy with the value too. Voyager fig, plus 2 battlemasters (with blast effects), for normal v-class price.

The value on the Voyagers is insane! I was keen to get hold of Hotlink but planning to ignore Megatron, but when I saw him on the shelf I couldn't resist. I know everyone complains about the "dirty" apps but I think Netflix Megs just looks fantastic.

Anyone have both the original Siege Megs and this Netflix release and can do a couple of side by side shots?

Saw him in store over the weekend and he looks amazing, just not sure it's worth it over the one I already have.

That.... um, okay... weird.

Are people buying three Scrapface toys because it would be a waste to not form a camera, or because they like the colours enough to get three as a camera.
I know some people are going to get three Scrapface toys to make the camera mode, but when I see pictures of the combined form, I just don't see anything familiar about it to want three as well. I have the two sets of Reflectors because they homage the original toy and cartoon form... but Scrapface's colours just don't do anything for me.

You've got to admit - Hasbro's done alright out of guy that essentially turns into either a box or space-thermometer...

That walking out of the packaging posing in the photo is cool

That's so creepy... makes you think your toys are possessed, and will come get you when you sleep.

If that’s a concern I wouldn’t recommend watching those Toy Story movies :p

I'm so glad the Target Masters included with the Voyagers are not G1 characters. Means I can completely skip at least wave 1.

I got him with LG Windblade. I forgot that he was in the set. Probably because I already have him so I dismissed the Netflix line a long time ago.

This line is called "Trilogy," not "Netflix."

Aaaaand nobody else cares. This reminds me of 2000 when I told people that "Transformers 2000" is actually called "Car Robot," and everyone told me to shut up. :p :D :p

The Trilogy trilogy - Unicron Trilogy, Movie Trilogy Series toyline and War for Cybertron trilogy.

All of the Earthrise and Siege toys are also War for Cybertron Trilogy toys. "Netflix" is the easiest way to differentiate these new toys from the other two lines.

Not according to Hasbro...

E9489 TRA GEN WFC NETFLIX DELUXE
E9490 TRA GEN WFC NETFLIX VOYAGER BATTLE COLLECTION
E9494 TRA GEN WFC NETFLIX LEADER UNBOXING COLLECTION

If that's what they are officially called by Hasbro, that's what they will be officially be called here (unless there is a double up like RID and "generic" Generations).

Besides... look at the Siege and Earthrise packaging - ALL of those toys are "War For Cybertron Trilogy" toys, so we need a sub-line or prefix from the packaging and product listings (Netflix) to distinguish this Mirage, Sideswipe, Chromia, Megatron, etc from the other WFC Trilogy Mirage, Sideswipe, Chromia, Megatron, etc.
(if you label these Netflix toys as Trilogy toys without "Netflix", then you have to label those other toys as Trilogy toys without "Siege" or "Earthrise"... and that just gets really confusing)
