NSW Transformers Sightings.

Too right Hursticon, I'm to scared to walk into a store at the moment due to the pitiful state of affairs. Though I may have to go hunting on Wednesday. Watch this space

[FFN]

I was out near Wetherill Park Stockland and checked to see if they DOTM out yet - and they didn't . They haven't even clear space for DOTM at Big W and Targer, from what I can tell.

Oh silly me.

Thanks for the tip buddy

Does anyone know when wave 2 will be available?

In the US, wave 1 and 2 of Deluxes and Cyberverse seem to be out simultaneously at some stores. So maybe they're supposed to be out roughly at the same time? or at least within this month?

Unless stores here decide to do what (according to Hasbro AU) Kmart did with regards to last year's Voyagers: order tonnes of wave 1 and then not order anything again for much of the year.

I'd say that's because the DOTM toys aren't meant to be out until May 16. When I went to Target Parramatta on Friday, they had NO Transformer toys and no space cleared for them. Then when fatbot went yesterday, they were out when I went this morning. No end cap, no price tags on shelves (although they did scan)... it seems that some stores are prematurely breaking the embargo date, but perhaps not setting up the fancy displays/end caps yet so as not to attract immediate attention from Hasbro store reps ??? <shrugs>

Cos Target Blacktown told me that they have the toys in as well as displays for the toys, but they're not going to shelve them until the May 16 embargo date (can't blame them for doing the right thing really).

I hope wave 2 come out with wave 1 like in some stores in the US.
Went back to my local Big W in cairns hill Liverpool. I picked up a Dotm deluxe Bumblebee for $23.00. Big W is much cheaper than Target.
I payed $28.00 for Dotm Roadbuster at Target.

Big W penrith has DOTM wave 1 in all it's glory!

They had 6 leaders including 2 Sentinel Primes 1 Ironhide and 3 BBs each $88

Voyagers they had 2 Megs (of which one I bought) couple Ironhides and the rest of Optimus Primes each $48.87

Deluxes they had a gazillion BBs (which were all faced to the front... Had to dig deep to get the good stuff!) and 2 or 3 each of Starscream, Ratchet, Skids and Roadbuster but only 1 Crankcase (which I promptly snapped up!) for $23.72 each.

They had all the Cyberverse stuff with lots of BB sets but only 2 Starscream ones, I didn't really pay attention to the prices though I was too enthralled by the other stuff lol

Edit:

[Sky Shadow]

Don't bother going to Bondi Junction - I looked in Target, David Jones, Myer and K-mart, and none of them had anything interesting. The most notable Transformers in the entire shopping complex were the PCC Icepick and Undertow at Woolworths.

[FFN]

Fairfield is a bust. Kmart and Big W didn't have any DOTM yet.

[GoktimusPrime]

Blacktown Kmart has nothin'. Winston Hills Big W on the other hand has DOTM stuff -- and cheaper than Target too! Definitely check out Big W first over Target if you have the chance.

Target Carlingford has zip.

[UltraMarginal]

Chatswood Target has a stand of DOTM figures just inside the entrance. evrything from leader class all the way to the little play sets. All at full retail price. ie $28 for deluxe, $50 for a voyager. As much as Im waiting for he setinal prime leader repaint before I decide which one to get, the Sentinal prime looks great in it's box. I was very tempted.

K-Marts at Sylvania & Figtree had the Warpath wave of Generations. Figtree wouldn't sell since thet didn't scan. Sylvania did, I grabbed both Warpaths (but left Kup, etc). Figtree was unloading DOTM stuff, too.
