Good pick up! The Barricade in that pack has also been modified so you can't eject the Frenzy toy (but you can unscrew it and release him if you wanted to).

Oh no sorry I meant "eject" in the sense of being able to remove the Frenzy mini-figure from Barricade's chest which you can't do with the Screen Battles version of Barricade.

Sighted Longarm w/ busted Bumblebee pack & Deluxe 08 concept Bumblebee.
PM for locations.
heaps of helmets (both real voice and the other), final stand & first encounter, a few megatron unleashed, some real gears, and a couple of others I forgot at a TRU
Titans Towers, a new store that's opened up in Australia Fair, Southport, GC has a great range of transformers:
"Rescue" Ratchet red white repaint, and Thundercracker,
Allspark Deluxes (including Bumblebee repaint cliffjumper), Movie Scouts Wave 2
Leader class Megatron and Optimus
plus a few Takara pieces including purple Galvatron
Also, plenty of the Star Wars transformers if you're missed them, including Death Star/Vader.
They did have some very cool Transformer statues, but they went quickly. Bumblebee bust is still there though.
Toyworld Runaway Bay/Southport are chock full of the barrel guns (starscream, optimus).
I saw the next wave of FABs at Target yesterday. FAB Bumblebee and FAB Barricade for the first time. I was almost tempted to pick up FAB Bumblebee b/c of the drought and the sweet alt mode but staved off Satan's slippery fingers and resisted.
They also had the new wave of Cyber Slammers Jazz and so and so for those interested.
BigW had the Megatron/Brawl Leader assortment and more of the TECH Gear crap.
Pretty meh all round.
I saw some gems today for the first time in a long time.
Lots of Megatron (Leader and Voyager ), lots of the last wave of movie toys so far (Longarm, Payload etc), and something I thought was very cool.
A Voyager Blackout. By itself. I haven't seen one since last May/June when I bought mine. Also the Screen Battles (Longarm and Barricade assortment) were there, and the store was not TRU - I thought that was interesting.
Did the store have a similar (high) pricing point for the Screen Battles?
