    You blokes in Canada were the lucky ones for a change though, as with the Brits with the Mainline stuff - A nice change to see.
    But, welcome to the AU market man: The land of the unappreciated and often rorted consumer.

    Im sorry.. rorted? I had to look it up but I still dont get what that means and the Urban Dictionary is blocked.

    It means "defrauding" or "cheating"... as in, we are often cheated of having good quality, affordable toys here.
    (it appears that "rort" is just used in AUS & NZ)

    So, just to make sure 'Psychic Odie's AU TF Hotline' is still possible, please confirm this.
    Australia hasn't actually gotten any Prime figures at all yet, have they?

    I could be mistaken but I'm sure I read that someone had spotted FE Prime and Bulkhead at a remote (aren't they all) Toyworld.

    I just got Vehicon in today.
    I really hope my orders for Bulkhead and Cliffjumper that I have paid for come through.
