    Some Ldr Ironhide were $12 at my local kmart too. I scanned one, saw it was $12 then grabbed a second and went to the register. Unfortunately the second one I grabbed was scanned first at the register and was still $89 this is when everything fell apart and i left empty handed. The prices have now been corrected at that store but I can vouch this was real. And i am left still wanting this figure.

    I've discovered why I got mine for $12! The barcode is covered with another barcode sticker which obviously makes it scan at $12. There must be a batch of incorrect stickered Ironhides about as I went to another kmart here in perth and they had blacked out the two barcoded Ironhides with black texta and put $89 stickers over them.

    Crazy. Any chance you still got your receipt? I'm very keen to see the line item description.

    There you go, and therein lies the error. I guess Stealth Force BB is on sale for $12 then.

    sounds like someone might be doing a dodgey and they might have been dissapointed to find that their dodgy ironhide was missing when they went back to "purchase" it. and find that someone else bought it.

    There is no dodgy stickering customer out there, I'd say a batch of Ironhides in the supply chain was stickered with incorrect barcodes as this is across different states.

    Kmart Sunnybank had a lonely Kreo Sentinel Prime for $39 (box looked a bit battered).
    Heaps of smaller size sets though, so might not be restocking/selling larger size sets anymore.

    All their TF3 stationery was discounted as well.

    This a sample of the stationary that was on clearance at Kmart...



    All for about $2-5 each now.

    Targets (mine anyway) have those huge Autobot tins (metal) with the activity books, stickers etc on clearance from $39 to $12. Worth just for the tin!
