Movie Toy Sightings.

[Saintly]

saw about half-dozen 3pack (battle-damaged starscream, battle-damaged Prime, and battle-damaged Arcee) at a fairly local KMart

from what I remember, it's priced like a Animated Leader

non-discount Tk store has metallic megatron $30

[Tropisetron]

I'm looking for metallic ratchet ..... None sighted at all in SA

If anyone in Melbourne or wherever it's sighted can help me that would be super great!

I hope Myer get stuck with a tonne of TFs that they can't move... (maybe then they'll finally get the message... )

No, that would just mean they won't bother stocking Transformers anymore. To get the message accross, one needs to create a fuss or attempt to do price matches. Point out all of their competitors (bar David Jones) are selling the toys for much lower prices.

I'd give it some time first if you can. Hasbro AU said that Metallics Megs and Ratchet can be expected in September in Big W & Specialty Stores (Toy World/Kingdom). I'm in QLD now and spotted a bucketload of them in the Toy World in Chermside, priced at $45. I think us Melbournians got lucky with the price because Toy Kingdom was acquired and many of the shops closed down. Be patient if you can. If not, maybe ask Grif. Isn't he coming to see you guys soon? You might be able to save on postage if he has the space.

I fully intend on writing Myer.

I don't really want to start a new thread for this so I'll just lump it in here

Anyway, today I was in Parra so I popped into DJ's. Of course all they had were Movie figures (hence this thread ) but I noticed an employee putting more Movie figures on the shelves...

So anyway, I took the opportunity to ask him (if he happened to know) Why, compared to all the other major retailers who've had Animated/Universe figures for months now, DJ's still don't have any of those new lines yet?

He tells me there are a bunch of boxes (including a tonne marked Hasbro) in the storeroom & he goes to ask his boss (an old bag of a woman). He then comes back to tell me DJs have already begun their Christmas Period (Yes, 3 months beforehand... ) and that during this period, the toy section doubles in size - which means that's when they'll put a heap more products on the shelves...





Not that I'll actually purchase TFs from DJ's anyway...
