    I did however take offense to the statement that someone was lying on this site as there are no hidden agendas here and nothing is to be gained by doing so.
    I'm surprised that they are out on show at any store. As of when I left work yesterday ours were on the backdock where they should be. If someone decides to put them out on show before the 16th it's not like I have any control over that, but I would be ever so slightly annoyed.

    Anyway as long as we are sighting toysale items at Big W, has any stores down south put out their Victorion sets yet? That's what I actually care about getting from the toy sale this year. As usual I'm going Takara Tomy for Fort Max so I won't be grabbing him from work.
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    Pretty much, which is stupid. This is what embargo dates are for.

    At this rate I'm glad I got mine early. Heck I was lucky to get devastator last year as he was the first (and last) one I saw for months.
    I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures

    First sighting I've heard of Victorian down south courtesy of Mbot:

    Don't think we're going to have scalper issues like with Devi based on the numbers we're seeing in stores now.

    Ha! You made my post in this thread for me.

    I've heard they are plentiful at Big W Fountain Gate (which is usually hopeless for TF stock), so that's 2 stores in the south east 'burbs with stock out and on sale. Seriously, I doubt this is going to be anything like Devi re scalpers.

    Karingal Big W were doing the same as they did a few years back - putting out a lot of the larger toy sale items around the store (including the ends of isles next to the walls, out of view unless you're looking for them) prior to the sale going live. Makes sense too - the bigger items (size wise) would be difficult to keep in storage while they're getting a flood of stock of toys ahead of the sale.

    I'm disappoint to see so many stores are ignoring the hold list. Good luck getting them guys. I can't even get one myself before the sale at my store. My manager doesn't want upset customers so they won't let anyone buy one before the 16th.
