WA Transformers Sightings.

Hey SentinelPrime,
Does figuresdirect do local pickup?

I've only ever picked-up from the dude. He works at East Perth last time I checked, and will do pick-ups from there during weekday office hours.


Kmart Garden City:
Restocks at laaaaassst! Here's the interesting stuff:

Animated:
A stack of the Jetfire/Jetstorm two packs.
Earlier wave deluxes, including Optimus, Ratchet, etc. Didn't see any Bumblebee though.

Universe:
Voyager Threadbolts on the shelves!!
A stack of Bruticus gestalts (but no Superions...)
Latest wave deluxes - alas, I just had to get the Starscream & Cyclonus, so now there's 1x Hound, 1x Cheetor, 3x Smokescreen left.

I reckon the Cheetor & Dinobot are pretty ugly - probably why they're warming shelves. Smokescreen has dodgey paint apps, making Silverstreak the best of this mold (although for character, Prowl's got my vote!)

Hey SentinelPrime,
Does figuresdirect do local pickup?

He sure does. Drop him a email for what you want during the week, and meet him (usually at Kardinya Shopping Centre on Saturday) for a pickup.
He doesnt update his website very often, and even has items that have been sold out up to 12 months ago still listed. Its hard being a sole operator.
Even if you have a wish list he will certainly do his best.
Having suppliers in both Japan and China aswell as Hasbro locally, he always sorts me out with whatever I need, every week to be extact. I dont even bother with local retailers.

I think I may have bumped into a fellow Ozformer at Kmart morley today. Not sure, as I was in a hurray, so didn't really have time to chat. Kind of a wierd sighting

Target Morley has a few left-over activator, Megatron, Badnut Lockdown and some Ultimate BUmblebees.

Kmart had some restock of the wave of animated with Oilslick, a Bunch of Jazzes, senty Primes. Most stock I hae seen for a while there, but no Blurrs yet...

[Zahhak]

Kmart kardynia had a majour restock or older toys too. Oil Slick, Prime Ratchet...about 6-7 of most of them. Including jazz, swoop ect ect.
Also had the universes in..mostly hound w/ravage and cyclonus but there was a starscream and smokescreen.

[bruticus]

Cheers for the info guys.
So Paul works in east perth hey? interesting...I'll drop him an email later and see what hes got atm...
Hopefully i can meet up or at least get him to bring it to next saturday's nexus fair.

btw. BigW Mirrabooka got a bucket load of TFA voyager grimlock and OP but only 1 universe hound and 1 activator dirge stood out as new....
Somebody must be scalping universe cyclonus big time.... hahaha.

Yep they had tonnes of everything + 15% off, pity I have everything I want

[bruticus]

Kmart morley seems have a buttload of animated deluxe figures (but no swindle, blurr or waspinator that i could see though)
but what they do have new is universe cyclonus, hound, Smokescreen, cheetor and dinobot all for 15% off....

Man WA is so behind the rest of the other states which are in turn sooo behind the rest of the world.... wtf is with that?

Still looking for a Waspinator and Samuri Prowl, none at Morley KMart or TRU, but Kmart did have the legends animated Bumblebee which I hadn't noticed around much before.
