Devastator coming back to Big W 17/12

Nope, he's a different, and larger, type of cement mixer than the ones you're thinking of.

O_o

Never seen one of those before. It does make it more real world accurate I guess, but no less weird.

I do not know about world accurate. Cement mixers I know were all the original front cab back mixer. This is in Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia etc.....so I am unsure that would be considered as a "standard" . It does exist and I guess from the designer's view point it makes the leg more sturdy I guess?

I have gone all around Brisbane but have been unable to find one. If someone could point me in the correct direction I would be grateful.

Unless someone is willing to sell?

Considering people were thinking that this larger, second wave of Devastators would warm the shelves and not move... I'm pleasantly surprised that they have been sold pretty fast. There haven't been too many sightings of them a month later.

It's a good result, as it could get BigW taking on more Transformers toys... it's just a shame that Generations Leader toys are struggling to be taken up by retailers here, or sell too well.

I think the price has a lot to do with it, with most retailers selling Leader class figures at the $100 mark, it's a bit much for most collectors... $70-80 would probably move more figures...

Yes... I was one of those people that thought that Devi would fly off the shelf... I do like being right...

Flying off the shelves miiight be a slight exaggeration
Guess it all depends on where you are located and how much stock that particular store has. I've seen about 10-11 in two different Big W stores in the last two days, not to mention the shelves full through photos on FB etc in the last week.
Slowly meandering along may be more apt description

Mhassar, there were four at Big W Capalaba this morning... I bought one there two weeks ago, when there were six

The way I found mine was the Big W website, there is a section which will let you now about store stock levels. It may not be completely acurate, but it will tell you which stores not to bother trying. It led me to me finding one ☺

Doing a online stock search for Big W this morning.
Carindale and Capalaba have it in stock
Underwood has low stock
Garden City out of stock


I was in Carindale last week and from memory they had about 4 on shelf.
