Gen Select 27 Galvatron

That aside, maybe pick it up if I see it in a store

Well, that won't happen. It's a Selects item. Even EB Games doesn't just get them in and put them on the shelf, they only supply what is specificaly ordered.

I've picked up plenty of Selects in store at Zing. If not, I'm not overly fussed and like anything else, I usually find a cheap alternative online

Here in Canberra my local zing stocks a lot of selects on the shelf. I just picked up Tricranius yesterday off the shelf.

I take it you don't have a Zing near you because they do, at least here in Brisbane. My usual has Transmutate and Ramjet still sitting there.

The EB Games in the same centre admittedly doesn't do it as much.

Usually items that are removed from their site within a couple weeks are ones that they are only ordering enough to cover pre-orders... but if it is an item that stayed there for pre-order until it was released, it generally means that they were allocated stock, and often leave the listing up even if they sold out of their allocation.

Then if items show up for sale in stores that was an item specially ordered to match pre-orders, they are probably cancelled/unfulfilled orders.

Most vic stores don’t get them in. WA and QLD seem to get lots.

Always exceptions to the rule... I think 1 Melbourne store stocks lots

GS-27 Galvatron (toy colours) is now out in Hong Kong.
It is scheduled for release here in the first week of October... but delays of recent toys will probably affect this one as well.
(America isn't expected to get it until November)

It looks like the gun barrel is sparkly, like the original 1986 toy.

I much prefer this Deco (sans stickers) to the regular retail release

[JJJ]

Can confirm that the cannon is indeed sparkly. Also, at least some of this batch have the shoulders assembled correctly (vertical notch to front, top of tongue in shoulder smoothly curved instead of detailed). Looks great without the stickers, although some paint is necessary (the crest, the belt).
