QLD Transformers Sightings.

[griffin]

After checking there 3 times a week for the last three weeks, Woolies Sunnybank finally got in the three Legion Terrorcons (either Friday or Saturday). Yesterday I picked up two, and went back today to look for the third and saw that all were now gone.

I only picked up two yesterday because I thought it was two Blight's at the back of the peg (half obscured behind Movie Legends toys). I saw two blue and white toys in their bubbles and just grabbed one (thinking they were both Blight) and dropped it in the basket as I then grabbed a purple/cream toy (Windrazor). I shoulda read the actual card, because when I got home and found that I had Rippersnapper, I just had this bad feeling that maybe they did actually have all three... so I went back today to check if the other blue and white one was Blight, but none were left.
(in other words, this was originally a sighting for the Terrorcons, but now it is just a note to others to not bother with the Sunnybank store for the Terrorcons now that their case has come and gone)
Ah well... time to start looking at other stores now.

It looks like the new wave of Cyberverse Legions and Commanders have hit Woolworths in Rocky, too. I picked up the last Hardshell, Rippersnapper, and Windrazor in Allenstown, but I guess someone else must have got to Blight before me. I'll be searching the other stores for it later in the week. There's still one Shockwave left at Allenstown.

i remember my great grandmother taking me to allenstown many,many years ago. it wasn't a good place back then to get tf's or anything cool. you had to go over to kmart shopping centre just over the bridge there. the venture's store there had the best selection of tf's and joe's you could get anywhere.

They've recently refurbished the shopping mall in Allenstown, but there are no dedicated toy stores. There is now a branch of the reject shop and Woolies sell the usual things, but that's it.

i haven't been back to rocky in over 20yrs other then drive through there at 2am in the morning about 4yrs ago. all i remember thinking is how much it hasn't really changed since the late 70's and early 80's. there also use to be a toy shop on the road heading out to mt morgan(just before the pub and the ford truck centre at port curtis)it was in an old servo and i use to get all my star wars and matchbox cars from there.

No idea if it's still there. But Rocky is basically still like that. It's a small mining town with not much aspiration to be anything else. I'm only here because the girlfriend's job is here and she makes better money than I do. I'll be out at the first chance we get.

i've never lived there. i grew up in middlemount in the coalfields and because my great grandmother lived there, we use to go there once a month. i couldn't wait till i was old enough to be able to just stay at home.

Woolies Chancellor Park had a whole box of the BH Leader class (i think they are), Starscream, Shockwave, OP etc just sitting on the floor opened. I think someone was a little keen. Didn't pick any up so they should still be there for all you Coasties out there.

BigW Carindale has heaps of the Movie Optimus nerf blaster for $35 (it fires about 10 darts).
Plus a Sharkticon Megatron, a couple of Deluxe Airachnids and Legion Airachnids, as well as the small two sizes of Construct-Bots.
They have the Cyberverse Vehicle sets as well - TFPrime ones for $15 (so cheap) and the Beast Hunter ones for $34.

Woolies there has the second wave of Legion BH (Prowl, Soundwave, Hun-Grrr).
