QLD Transformers Sightings.

[griffin]

I was actually a member of Griffin's club back in the 90's, when we got membership cards and all!

Really? Those were only given out during the first four years. What was your username back then?

big w carindale had 2 of the megatron cyberverse base packs in stock today

Oh, and where are the WFC 3-packs being found on the southside? I MUST have one of these, never even knew about them til now!

I honestly can't remember.

My real initial are C.P. My address then would have been St Lucia, if that helps.

[griffin]

I remember you now from your last name (on your email address on you registration)... which amazes me to think that I remember the early members so vividly, despite it being over 10 years ago.
Back into collecting, or just never left?

I spied a new Transformers item (and the first DOTM one!) at my local
Woolworths today. Its a Transformers Dark of the Moon "Mystery Bag".
Each bag, from what I read, contains up to five items, out of a selection
including stickers, badges, jigsaw puzzles, squishie balls, plastic ten pin bowing, tattoos, etc.

While the items probably won't be of interest to many, unless you have kids, its wonderful to see a kid-friendly package like this. We missed out on a Transformers Dark of the Moon showbag at the Ekka this year (only a knock off transforming robots bag with artwork of Armada minicons), so hopefully it will make some (not so big!) kids happy.

Little bit of both, really.

Cut back on the collecting for awhile, but still kept up with the fiction.

Purchased some AEC stuff, while still getting G1 re-issues/originals I didn't have.

Alternators really got me excited again, and then it re-blossomed, and recemented fully by the time of Classics 1.0

Posted on IDW, and the Allspark intermittently, after helping run a few Aussie sites that ultimately folded. And then I rediscovered here the other week.
Good to see you again, mate.

Sounds like the RotF mystery bags, just in new packaging (like the repackaged Tomy Figurines).

I discovered Brookside shopping centre which is just around the corner from me. Target had about 8 each of Jetwing and Ultimate Optimus Prime. Didn't see prices, was just wandering past.

[reillyd]

I don't know how they or TRU expect to sell so many at those prices..... Shelf warmers indeed.

Wool worhts Runaeay Bay and also Helensvale have restocked more of the G1 legend class, and both have Megs for those who missed out.

Garden City Kmart had a lot of Generations (including 2x Scourge and 1x Kup), HA Sideswipe/Icepick $25 and the Ark for $39 (new regular price?)
