FIRST SIGHTINGS ARCHIVE of new Transformers in Australia

[JJJ]

I've just seen Earthspark wave 2 warrior class toys (Megatron and Thrash) at Target Mildura. I don't believe they've been released in Australia previously, because I've been waiting and waiting and waiting for Thrash

Apparently there has been "first world sighting of the new Transformers Legacy United Wave 3 Deluxe" at Big W.
That is a big jump in waves at retail.

Good to see Big W getting Legacy United. I was pretty much convinced they had dropped the Legacy line. I visit my local store frequently. The latest Legacy Deluxes I have seen was Evolution wave 1 (Breakdown, Needlenose etc) and that wave took a very long time to appear. The latest Legacy Voyagers I have seen was Evolution wave 2 (Metalhawk, Twincast) before going back to wave 1 (Leo Prime, Tarn).

I hope Kmart, Target and Myer also get Legacy United in. As much as I like to support JB Hi-Fi (they have been strategic with the TF line), I would like to see more competition and more opportunity to price match. I think Kmart and Target stopped after wave 1 Legacy, and Myer after wave 1 Evolution Deluxes. So I gave up on them too.

I'd really rather nobody else skip a whole year's stock thw way Big W have just done.

Member TilAllAreOne reported the reissue/repack of SS86 Gnaw in QLD, Big W Robina. This toy is unchanged from the initial release but has the current SS box style.

Kmart Coomera had a new refresh of Transformers Authenticator ($17) which included the new Autobot Mirage. He is fricking awesome. also had the smaller size class with Elita-1. There’s one more in store, but I think most Kmarts will get them shortly
