Today at Garden City.
Myer - still cleaned out from their sale... I don't think they restocked at all in the last four weeks. They did have the RID Power Surge Optimus, for $100.

Kmart - still keeping the stock levels up, but the only "new" items since last visit is the second wave of TR Legends, and a first sighting of the Rescue Bots Elite High Tide.

.

They also have the newer t-shirt with Optimus on the front, but I couldn't find the Soundwave one, which they had heaps of just a couple weeks ago. I also saw the Autobot singlet, but couldn't find the new Autobot logo t-shirt that was sighted in Melbourne.

ToysRUs - surprisingly keeping their stock levels up, after almost a year of neglect and empty shelves. New items showing up are the ToysRUs exclusive RID Warriors (Starscream, Paralon and the white redeco of Power Surge Optimus), for $30 each. They will probably be on sale like the larger Starscream, but I caved and bought one of each just in case they don't go on sale, or sell out before we get one.

Toyworld Macgregor (down the road from Garden City) - had a few of the TR Leader Soundaves, wave 2 TR Deluxes, wave 2 TR Voyagers, plus the old TRU/Myer exclusives (Insecticons, YOTG Optimus, Evolution Optimus). They also had a LOT of the TF4 (big) Flip-n-change Drift toys, which Hasbro must have offloaded recently.
And for those in the area, this store had one of their SDCC Devastators from last year, back up for sale due to a layby that wasn't paid off... and I was told that it was $250 (which was their regular price in the store, despite them getting a fair bit of it paid off in the layby).
(the sale tag in one photo that says $29.99, is actually for the TR Deluxes... which are obviously not on sale at that price... it's actually a bit deceptive)

I think that's the first Rescue Bots toy at Toyworld, but I could be wrong. If it is, it certainly shows how successful Hasbro Australia has been this year in getting almost every other Retailer to take on the toyline, as it was just Kmart for a while being the only store with them.
