Hasbro MP Optimus coming to Australia October

[Jetfire in the sky]

Wife just got my MP Prime from Townsville TRU for my birthday. Items must have just arrived today because they got it from out the back and looked very casefresh. There was no price or space for them on the shelves.

I take it these things are loooooooong gone from shops around the lucky country?

[lj7369]

Affirmative.
They were hard to come by in November.
Sorry man.

Best bet is to contact TRU head office and see if they can locate one for you.

Don't like your chances though.

TRU head office can't help, I'm afraid. There's barely any left, I think. Maybe like 2-3 in NSW or QLD but that's all, I think.
Join the club.

Thanks for the response.

I'm going to tell my self that either hasbro or takara will want to milk the mold as much as they can and we might get a new release in a few years time. It's taught me not to sleep on Masterpiece when I have the money to secure them at least. Sideswipe's part of that list too...

For anyone that is still hunting down MP Prime I located a small cache located at Toys R Us Bankstown NSW.
As of posting there should still be 4 left, they are hidden out the back, you just have to ask for them
Or if anyone needs it I might be able to go on a small mission to acquire another, just shoot me a PM.

[Bidoofdude]

Darn. Got my hopes up. NSW.

I was hoping to start my MP collection with Optimus but I haven't had any luck locating it in any Perth TRU

I think we had the one of the lowest release numbers across Australia not that's saying much as the release numbers were pretty abysmal in all states
