WA Transformers Sightings.

Hey Kyle,

How many Mixxies and Shockwaves did they have at Armadale?

There were 4 Mixmasters and 4 Megatrons. Didn't count the Animated Shockwaves and Sunstorms, but I think there were also at least 4 of each.

I found the TRU exclusive Darkwing and Countdown figures... for $80 each!

I wanted to put them on layby but apparently TRU don't do layby.

I'm having trouble convincing myself to spend that much on them, especially when one is a repaint.

I have also seen TFA Shockwave/Bumblebee and Ratchet/Sunstorm double packs in KMart.

$80?!?!?!??!? What a friggin rip off! No way they are worth that! I saw the Countdown at TRU Morley, but I am glad I don't want it at that price. Is TRU really a business coz they make some stupid decisions sometimes.

Sighted by Tetsuwan at a Kmart (forgotten which one) and then by me at Kmart Armadale:

- Animated Purple Shockwave
- Animated Sunstorm

I saw them at Morley. $50 at the moment.

Yeah, I don't think I can justify $80, even though I want Darkwind/wing to go with Dreadwind. Unfortunately He's $40 US at RK now, which, when adding shipping and converting to AUD, equals around $81 AUD. Bah.

Think I'll just wait until they mark them down.

Man it just seems like TRU has no idea with their pricing sometimes.

If they release a Dark/Dread 2-pack then it'll be tougher for me to resist...

Went on the hunt for ROTF today. Didnt travel too far, only local.

Kingsway Big W

Absolutely nothing, only transformers were Star War crossovers. Shame on you Big W, shame on you.

Warwick K Mart

Jackpot! for deluxe, robot heroes, leaders ROTF of course.
ROTF Bumblebee helmet
ROTF Bumblebee blaster

Animated Jetstorm and Jetfire packs
Animated Leader Bulkhead $35 clearance from $39, just how low will they go?

[Gasaraki]

Today's foray into the CBD...

Myer Perth:
Finally has ROTF out, but only the 2 preview Deluxes, and Gravity bots.
The Deluxe price looks to be $31.95.
Of interest is that there was one TFU Voyager Threadbolt.
Big red stocktake sale banners everywhere, but no discount on TF toys!

David Jones Perth:
ROTF at last.
All wave one now out on the shelves, but at inflated DJ prices of course.
I didn't bother looking too closely, but Scouts are $17.95 and Deluxes $29.95.
Better than Myer, and perhaps will be good when there's a nice sale.
