    I am amazed at the 11 steps for the spike in exo suit and bee combo set, it looks like a very simple transformation. (Not complaining, that set and the chibi style would be very popular on my house)

    I really hope they've improved the QC on Shatter. If they have then take my money!
    Probs gonna grab the Bumblebee and Sam set and definitely BumblejumperBee.

    Rumour I've seen is MPM Barricade reissue but there's still unsold stock in Toymate etc, so I wouldn't expect it here. MPM VW Bumblebee maybe also?

    That could have been speculation because the mpm vw Bumblebee was listed for reissue on the us target website at the same time as the buzzworthy toys.

    Kmart stores have often been found to put out shelf-tags 2-3 months too early (they must get details or alerts emailed to them for upcoming stock as soon as they are added to the system, even if they don't yet have the stock... and print out all of the shelf-tags ready), and I saw another one today that is for an item that Kmart isn't supposed to be getting until Late March - Early April.
    At Kmart Sunnybank Hills, the shelf-tag for the Buzzworthy Bumblebee 2-pack. (photo here of the shelf-tag, and the official image of the toy for reference)

    Now we know what the price will be in Australia. $29 isn't great for this small figure, but in America it was US$15, compared to US$10 for their Core Class.... and our prices are often doubled from the US prices.

    Damn that's more expensive than I thought it would it be. Sorry to say but the included Spike doesn't help at all, the Bee should've been sold by itself for $20, because for $29 you could grab the Netflix one.
    Anyway, I've updated my review thread, thanks for the info!
