Saw thundercracker and Blackout at BigW Rockdale... plus a load of Leader Class Megatron.

[griffin]

But how is the pricing in AU$ come to for those figures Mel? Did they work out to be much cheaper, or not at all when converted to AU$?

[MV75]

Saw deluxe arcee and dropkick at bigw and a heap of landmine, one cliffjumper, a wreckage and camshaft/swindles at target.

But screw it for now, I want those premiums to come, and scorponok & brawl.

Leader - S$99.90 (i think)
Voyager - S$49.90/RM99.90
Deluxe - S$26.90
Scout - S$15.90/RM34.90
Real Gears - S$17.90
FABs - S$26.90
Robot Heroes - S$10.00
Legends 2-pack - S$16.90/RM34.90
Legends (single pack) - S$8.90

Current exchange rate should be A$1.00 = S$1.28 = RM2.80

those prices are like when it goes on sale in the stores here!!

how unfair! we should all make a point by not buying any TFs in this hasbro au monopolised country! *sigh* but then others would~

The Legends and the Robot Heroes are more expensive though relatively that is.

Yes they actually worked out to be more cheaper, especially if you buy more!

Like the examples that iceburn has given:

SGD = Singapore Dollars and RM = Malaysian Dollars

Deluxe: SGD$26.99 = AUD$20.99
Scout: SGD$16.90/RM34.90 = AUD$13/$12.60
Voyager: SGD$49.90/RM99.90 = AUD$38.90/AUD$36.30
Movie Scene Battles: RM99.90 = AUD$36.30

It's DEFINITELY much cheaper to buy in Singapore or Malaysia for most of the movie range, like I said somewhere, if I didn't have baggage restrictions, I would have bought the new voyagers too, imagine paying only AUD$36.30 for the Voyagers or Movie Screen Battles, we can save about $12-$15 for each toy!

But I've got to say there's not much difference for Scouts, Legends and Robot Heroes. The ones that have more savings are Deluxes, Voyagers, Leader classs and Movie Screen battles.

Oh I also checked out Kmart yesterday, there was 1 Voyager Rescue Ratchet, 1 Normal Voyager Prime, 1 FAB Cliffjumper, 1 Turnaround Prime and few Robot Replicas thats it.

After having a nice chat with someone from TRU, Toyworld and Toy kingdom.
All of them indicated to me that they get more transformer stock (even mentioning 'we rang up hasbro') during Easter. Im not sure if this is during before. And i am not sure of the validity of there statements, but they all seemed genuine and sincere. This interested me because this is also the school holiday period.

I think it's a safe bet. Every year come Easter there will be a sale catalogue. You can bet your bottom dollar I'm scouring stores as soon as the sales start.
