    Dropped by Midland Gate hoping to grab Topspin & Roadbuster on sale, but NO LUCK - Big-W & Kmart a little decimated! But nice surprise:

    Kmart Midland Gate:
    Generations on the shelves - Warpath x1, Wheeljack x2, Kup x1, Scourge x1, and Thundercracker x2 (!!)
    Some random DOTM Deluxes but no Roadbuster or Topspin - they did have 2 of the exclusive Sideswipes, I liked the bright colours so nabbed one

    Target Midland Gate:
    Still quite a few DOTM Deluxes & Voyagers on the shelves, along with a whole stack of DOTM Leader Ironhides ready for sale next Thurs it looks. I'll have to pop in early to grab a Roadbuster (if they are still there) but no Topspin! Grrr!

    Big-W was simply in a mess...
    Recent acquisitions: SS Leader Blackout & Deluxe Starscream, & FP Pinchar (Snarl)!
    Upcoming: SS Voyager OP, Megs, Brawl & Ironhide!
    Wishlist: Voyager Astrotrain & Octane (Thank you Hasbro!), Modern Dinobots (Thank you FP!)

    Popped out to Belmont Forum during lunch hour...

    Kmart:
    Stacks of Generations - 3+ each of Warpath, TC, and Wheeljack. No Kup or Scourge.
    Also bunch of random DOTM Deluxes, Voyagers, & Leader Sentinel & Bee. No Topspins.
    Still got 2 exclusive Deluxe Bees left, no exclusive Sideswipes though.
    Managed to get Laserbeak for $12

    Big-W
    Surprisingly good stock of DOTM Deluxes, although once again no Topspins!
    There was even one Skyhammer left - weapon included
    Happy to get my Roadbuster on discount at last.

    Went by Innaloo after work - crazy I know, but the movie seems to have revived the excitement of these 'hunts' for me

    Kmart:
    Not a bad range, all DOTM wave 1 Voyagers & all Leaders out.
    Deluxes a little limited to shelf-warmers Bees, Crankcase, and more common ones. No Topspin.
    Generations have been decimated - I saw 2 Wheeljacks only.
    NB there are two areas of TFs, although this may be cut after the sale.

    Target:
    A bit of an eye-opener in that half the floor space has been converted into what looks like a TRU.
    DOTM Voyagers & Leaders as per Kmart above.
    Deluxes again mainly more common ones, although had a couple of TC & Laserbeaks (is it me or is this guy being snapped up quick after the film showed?).
    Again, no Topspin.
    NB as for Kmart, there are two areas of TFs.


    As an aside, for those of us who work (I'm sure some make $100+/hr), you'd think that ebay makes more sense than driving around the city, but internet just doesn't replicate the thrill!

    For those at joondalup...i saw an asian edition of bumblebee at big w! was tempted to buy it! but god...the packaging was horrid! looked like it had a boxing match with the english versions of the toy. Scanned at the same price as well as the english editions.

    It was great to see the difference. The main difference i saw that the chest bit on the american edition has some bits coated in a vomit like yellow whilst the japanese version uses the same yellow throughout.

    Midland and apparently Kalamunda Toyworld have an in-store promotion that ends on the 16th. It's a sheet in store (one per customer) with a bunch of coupons that give either a 50 (only one of these), 30 25 or 20% discount. You choose which one.

    Conditions include one coupon per item and the item must be full-priced. I used my sheet to get a RTS deluxe for $15 and another for $21.

    I've heard about this, are the vouchers capped in value? I heard that the individual item had to be no more than $30 for the 30% discount.
