VIC Transformers Sightings.

[Kazza]

Rang up Target at Highpoint, Doncaster and Northlands and was informed that they are all sold out of CW G1 Megatrons but they still have plenty of Armada Megs.

Rang up TRU at Doncaster and they had 2x G1 Megatrons left (now only one @ 1pm) and 4x Armada Megs.

The staff there are fantastic, when I came into the store, the guy I spoke to on the phone held both of them for me to let me pick which had the better box. We got to discussing transformers and he was aware of our OTCA community and said he prefers to help us collectors over scalpers. He also said I could buy the G1 Megs at the $72 price range back when they had the 20% off.

Note to anyone going to grab the last CW G1 Megs, be polite and friendly and the staff may help you out with perks.

Just got the latest "School Holiday Sale" catalogue from Toyworld in Sunbury.
Generations Deluxes: 24.99 (RRP29.99)
Generations Legends: 16.99 (RRP19.99)
RID 1 Steps: 16.99 (RRP 19.99)
RID 3 Steps: 34.99 (RRP 39.99)

Except for the one steps these were the prices they had been selling them for since they arrived.

I guess this means that after this sale ends they'll be raising their prices so this may be your last chance to grab CW and RID stuff at their introductory discounts before all Toyworlds will be raising their prices

Anyone know when RiD is hitting Target/Kmart?

I was in Kmart at Stud Park yesterday and the TF section was cleared (almost) of stock with new tickets for RID. I'd be guessing sometime during the coming week they'd have stock on the shelves.

Sadly, that's not a sign.... My local's been bare and ticketed since before CW was first sighted in oz....



And as for Northland, there were 4 g1 Megs today.... But I can't remember if it was target or TRU now.... But I know they were there somewhere

[Ultra Mackness]

Target at Knox still has a couple of g1 Megs if anyone is still after them.

TRU has all the other CW stuff but also has the Transformers Monopoly game.

Mordialloc Woolworths has some of the re-released legion/legends Starscreams and Optimus Primes, along with Strafe for $8ea
