    Two reasons

    1) Because we can access it. Toyworld is one of the last chain of independents Australia has. They even have an online store (admittedly, pretty crap range, but a Mr Toys Toyworld will often do mail order).

    2) Kmart/Myer/Target may have been burned by previous large items like DOTM Optimus Prime which has been on clearance.
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    Quick update on this. Spoke to the manager at Toyworld Fyshwick a couple of weekends ago. Apparently what he was telling me about has been pushed back to next year now- apparently it was coming in through F.O.B. (perhaps somene else can shed light on just what that is) . I'll keep tabs on it and I'll pass on info as I hear it.

    Im hoping this will be available in Toys R Us in North America. If not this will not be cheap to ship.

    Toyworld is kind of everywhere too. I can think of four or five near me anywhere from five minutes to an hour away.

    You serious NSW doesn't have Toyworld I didn't know that. Sort of blows, but at the same time I hardly get anything from the ones near me. They're always full of nothing most of the time

    Just to clarify what kup is saying, NSW does have Toyworld however there are none in Sydney.

    Sydney and surrounds =/= NSW

    There are actually 27 Toyworlds in NSW according to their website

    Thanks for the correction but given those distances from Sydney, there may as well be none!

    I should have said boring Sydney, probably more accurate in the broader boring scale too.
