Sighted in the last few days, the second wave of Rescue Bots Feature Bots, and the first wave of 2016 RID 1-step toys.

Found today at Woolworths Garden City, the wave 2 Rescue Bots Feature Bots (figurine with moving part) Optimus Prime... which came out with High Tide, but I couldn't find any others at this store.
It was $10, which is a bit much, as they are US$5 in America.

Myer at Highpoint Shopping Centre - they had the new RID 1-steps (Springload, Quillfire, new Bumblebee, new Sideswipe), for the first time at a major retailer, some months after they were released in America.

Listed as in-stock at the Target website, but not yet in stores (maybe an online exclusive), are the Combiner Wars Gen2 coloured Menasor and Superion.
These are also expected at ToysRUs, who are more likely to have them available in store, as they are more able to have them in display cases to protect them.

Hey guys!

For anyone who read Griffin's news from last weekend's Australian Toy Fair, you'd know that Target is looking to stock the G2-themed Combiner Wars Gestalt giftsets...

Well, online, they've kept to their word on 2 out of 3 of them and they're AVAILABLE NOW!

• Menasor - $199 + Free Postage

• Superion - $199 + Free Postage

A couple of smaller items - RID Tiny Titans wave 5, found in February but stores are slow to get in stock, so it's taken a while to get a photo... plus, Rescue Bots "friends" Drake and Servo.

Tinyjazz sent me a photo last week to post up, showing that we did indeed miss Wave 4 of the RID Tiny Titans.

Found the Rescue Bots Friends Drake and Salvo at Kmart Tuggeranong for $9

New sightings from the last week...

RID Deployer Crazybolt with Hammer at BigW, possibly a world first.

Plus a heap of new Rescue Bots toys showing up at Kmart to go with the two pets in the previous posting - Rescue Trailers (Heatwave & Chase), Megabots (High Tide & Optimus), regular bots (Medix and Boulder).

The wife found this today in BigW in Penrith, it was the only one there. Price was $28.00.

Found these guys at Kmart Belconnon yesterday

$39 each

The new trailer Heatwave and Chase, who appear to be the new regular toys sold with a trailer (neither of these two regular toys have been released here yet).


As for the regular, transforming Rescue Bots, this wave isn't new here, but I wanted to include a photo anyway.

As noted in the news section (here and on every other fansite), the Titans Return toys have started appearing here, with the Legends at a small chain in Sydney called Toymate, and Fortress Maximus at Myer stores around the country.

Sighting from Sharky today at ToyMate
