    Indeed, one should be able to find at least one - Those living in the Illawarra & South Coast regions however...
    (I'll try and provide some photographic reasoning to the above later today )

    One or two should indeed be available hopefully easily... but for us who plan on army building and I mean ARMY build this would prolly be a bit of a search....much like the little versions

    Going by the amount of wave 1 Primes (Cliff, BB etc) still shelfwarming over here in Perth, still yet to see Ratchet, Knockout so will never see a Vehicon in my lifetime.

    Exactly my concern...

    I still remain hopeful! It's the only figure I'm concerned about because of the army builders.

    Exactly. Remember how 'rare' Soundwave was thought to be at first? Now I you can get him quite easily off the shelf. The only thing we really have to worry about is shelfwarmers preventing new stock refreshments.

    Prime toys have only been on shelves since March/April, to call anything in the line a shelf warmer yet is really jumping the gun a little.

    We have only had a few sightings of some newer wave items at TRU, and a couple Toy Worlds. The Prime show and line will be goig for at least another year and a half till the next movie comes along, probably longer.

    there is plenty of time for the later waves to get here and distribute, look at how many places had heaps of Generations figures around Christmas, Kups, warpaths, wheeljacks, Thundercrackers etc, they first showed up here in the first quarter of last year.

    There is heaps of time, if you rush out and buy online now, you're only going to see the same things you buy online in shops for the next 12 months.

    the FE prime toys were a bit of a special exception, I wouldn't apply that situation to the rest of the prime series.

    Chilax kids.
