    Default Netflix wave 2 and more reissues coming to Kmart

    A HUGE thankyou to Hasbro Australia, for listening to us fans (as well as seeing how fast the first wave sold out), to then go to the extra effort to fight really hard to have Australia allocated some stock of the second wave of Netflix toys.

    In October, we should see the 5 Deluxe toys and 2 Voyagers packs at Kmart, but not the Leader pack at this time. If they can secure stock of the Leader pack, they will let us know. (or it might just show up at the same time as the first wave Leader pack when it is released for the Christmas sales - fingers crossed)
    * be aware though, that since we are in Australia nothing can be guaranteed until the day that these show up in this country, because anything can happen, like if the shipment from Asia is delayed, or if Hasbro America changes their mind on sending us the stock because they needed it.

    And thankfully, the Reissue Minibots sold well enough to have Kmart take on Reissue Soundwave and the Cassette 2-packs (possibly both 2-packs), for September.
    The second wave of Minibots (with Gears and Warpath), is still expected for some time in the last quarter of this year, but still to be confirmed.

    Awesome news but considering I was never able to find the ones I wanted in the first wave, I'll preorder with OMP just in case. It's quite a bit more expensive but I'll at least get the toys (unless they don't get enough stock but I'll get my money back anyway.)

    Great news! Mind you, I didnt know we weren't getting Wave2.
    Pretty keen on that Soundwave.

    EDIT: Thanks Griffin for doing good work.

    Excellent news and I think we owe Griffin some thanks for his hard work in the background, his emails and questioning to show hasbro (both Au and USA) that we are not too small a market to avoid.

    Definitely. Thanks Griffin for conveying the demand to Hasbro, and back to us.

    Glad it's an easy place like Kmart to pick these and more resissues up from.

    Forgot to say thanks to Griffin. I'm sure it wasn't easy in the slightest and to have everything arranged so quickly is amazing. Hoping this is a sign of more exclusives coming this way.
