is that safe? you guys are talking about mp05 right?
im going to assume that the person who recieves it will take him out of the box, transform him into bot mode and send him that way.... i dont think theres really any other way
I assume that the package will go to the Perth mail centre, and that a toy pistol won't surprise anyone there. I got my MP-5 from the eastern states, so once its on Aus turf I guess it wont raise alarms. It comes in robot mode anyway, so if any one looks at it no big deal. So if they do come here they will be forwarded onto you still sealed. Anyone else got Megs from overseas to WA?:cool:
oh its robot mode in teh package? then should be ok... hmmm
Spotted today (its gone as I've got them)
please don't be alarmed and head down to ransack Target:
- MP04 Prime with Trailer @ A$199.99
There was only 2 and one has gone to Sifun.
I'll be offering mine for the price that I've paid at Robot Kingdom if anyone is interested (which is slightly higher)
[edit] Yes yes, TARGET...
in a Target shop?
Jaydisc has more news but I'll leave it to him since he found out. Found none on my end out East.
EDIT:
LCZ128 just informed me that he found some more in Melbourne. Unbloody believable. There were 2 there much like the city.
DAMN! :mad:
I thought the rep at Toyfair said it was the Optimus WITHOUT the trailer, i.e. MP-01, that would be released at Target. :(
Nothing too juicy. I talked to a few managers. Supposedly, nearly every target down here has 16 on order, with some more rural locations only having 6, so keep your eyes peeled.
Target Receipt Product number is 42977605 and description is Convoy in case you want to call your local
Hmm, not sure if I would drop $200 on him... I hope there's a 15 or 20% off sale coming up soon!
Wow thanks for the news guys, hopefully still got some left for me tomorrow.
darn it, the target toy sale just finished, any1 any details of layby so i can reserve my copy
:(They haven't released them over here yet in the West but I was told there is a big toy sale at Target at the beginning of July if you can wait that long and if any are left on the shelf.:D
There's none yet at my local Target today.
How interesting maybe ill drive down to my local one in 10 mins to check :D
I already tried Epping and Reservoir
Nice, but I can't say I wanna drop $200 for MP Convoy with trailer. I mean, I'd happy pay $120 or so, but just don't care for the trailer (because I wouldn't display it).
If anyone just wants a trailer, I'm more than happy to split d:
I say wait for the big July toy sale. That's when the Hasbro rep said it would be coming out. It's likely to be the big ticket TF item in the sale and you should save some dollars. That's if they last...
July huh....hrmmmm at least Ill have a few paydays in between that time.
me ME mE Me??
If I find one I am laybying it.
exactly what i'll do...
hmmm i just want a trailer as ive already got an MP 01, but its $200 hmmm too pricey it doesnt even come with roller or the gas pump equipment. dear oh dear
Wow... is this Prime with long smoke stacks and no battle damage (unlike the Hasbro one)?
Wow! I never thought a large department store chain would stock TFs with a regular price of $200... :rolleyes:
I've just done some research and apparently the QC is a lot better on the original Hasbro 20th Anniversary Prime (which I have), so I might just stick with that (:
Is the Packaging Japanese style, a la MP02 Magnus? Because if it is, and for that price, I'm sure that many an MP04 will sit on shelves for months just like MP02 did, until the price starts to drop.
I would very much like an MP04, but I dont see much point when I own MP02 already and I am very happy with him.
I'm a bit peeved, we got frontpaged on seibertron.com (looks at i_amtrunks) it means I'll start seeing the usual Victorian scalpers w/ stuff in their store for $500...
And I just found out that MP04 originally cost 18,000 yen. That's about $180 AUD these days. If you think about it, that's bloody awesome. I hope we see more of these. But I doubt they'll ever get Megatron b/c of the obvious possibility of our sensationalistic press.
I really didn't want this to be front paged on the major sites.
Now we're going to get scalped hard. I HATE scalpers.
No luck with The Glen :(
I was at a local Target yesterday & the grand total of MP-04's was... zero :D
Anyway, I acquired an MP-04 from Robot Kingdom a little while ago & I'm more than happy with him :) but honestly, I know there's 1 or 2 people here who are gonna be wiping their Target's clean & flogging them off to the highest bidder... :rolleyes:
pulse, i had a look at ebay and things aren't that hot for MP04 as yet...
think everyone is waiting....
