    The Victorion set is finally out, now found at American Target stores for US$100... so expect about AU$200 when it shows up here.

    Is anybody looking at getting Victorion? the girls love the idea of having an all girl combiner so I will probably bite. Ebay sites have it between 170-220ish

    Edit $168ish shipped through Amazon.com

    The very rare Cyber Battalion toys seem to be showing up again... possibly the stock that was almost released in Australia last year, but retailers here didn't want them.

    Two of them are showing up with Universal Studios stickers on them (small Optimus, small Starscream), while Brazil seems to have restocked five of the seven toys (the small Bumblebee, small Optimus, small Megatron, big Optimus, big Bumblebee - missing the small Starscream and small Grimlock).

    The ebay seller of the Universal Studios ones is in Hong Kong, so these might just be at the Singapore Universal Studios.

    Some details on the Cyber Battalion and Cyber Commander series for those unfamiliar with them.

    The phrase 'very rare' sure gets banded around a lot.

    Are these the ones? (courtesy of Chimungmung).

    Five of those are the ones.

    And anything "Hasbro" that isn't released in North America, Europe, here and most of Asia, and not showing up in more than a couple online stores or much on ebay, does make them very rare.
    (not that they are in huge demand, but were worth replicating as Kabaya models in Japan last month)

    The second wave of 2016 RID Warriors (with Quillfire and Thunderhoof) have only just recently been reported as being found at US Retail.

    They've now been found at the two American Universal Studios themeparks, and with the small Bumblebee as well.
    Only Bumblebee & Starscream were found (so far) at Florida, while Optimus, Bumblebee & Starscream were found at the California park.
    They are priced at US$33 plus tax, which is really expensive for over there, particularly since they are cheap-ish looking toys.

    RID Battle Pack wave 3 (Strongarm & Blizzard Sideswipe) and the third Minicon 4-pack (weapons Minicons Lord Doomitron, Lancelon, Dragonus, and Bashbreaker) have been found in America.

    The next wave of RID 1-steps have been found in America as well, which has the new mould Optimus, new mould Strongarm, and redeco Blizzard Sideswipe.

    And yet more Kreo are showing up at discount stores in America, and just like the boxed build sets showing up there in the last couple of years, these aren't just re-releases of older Kreons. These blind-bagged Kreons are of figures released in the first couple of waves (back in 2012), but are using the newer 2014 Kreon body-part moulds with different paint apps, so are technically new Kreons.

    Platinum Edition Optimus Vs Megatron set is now on Amazon in America, while the Cyclonus set is out in Hong Kong.

    The same week it shows up here, the Rescue Bots firehouse set has also been found in America.
