There's also Smash!, which is an anime convention that does bring Japanese seiyuu (voice actors) to Sydney. They did have a Transformers seiyuu at least once. They haven't announced their guests for 2015 yet.

Listing updated, and moved to the Oz news section for a while to see how it goes there, as the conventions and fairs are news-worthy, especially when there are official guests, and can get missed in the meets section.
May 17 - Hornsby Fair
May 31 - Parra Fair
July 5 - Penrith Fair
G1 prime boxed for $500 and loose for less than $100

Is Ozcomiccon worth going?
Updated, after being neglected for almost 5 months.
If you know of an upcoming collector fair or have posted up a meet for one in the meetup section, let me know or post here, and I'll add it to the first posting (and maybe announce the collector fair on our facebook page).
