BotShots wave 3 have now been sighted at a Coles store in Sydney.

Not sure if anyone else has seen them yet, but I came across those new BotShots today at Coles; namely Flip Shot Skywarp and Twinstrike, plus Blitz Shot Inferno and Hound. No sign of Megatron though.

Forgot to note here 6 weeks ago (end of October) that the Jet Vechion Legion figure was being found at Coles and Woolies stores (and maybe some others by now).



Plus today, the second wave of the Elite class Construct-Bots.

Last night at Chatswood Kmart

Construct-Bots
Hound, Optimus amd Purple megatron, all the same size class and none in the system.

Wave four of the Beast Hunters Deluxe figures now found in Australia, which includes Arcee, Knockout and Vertebreak... but since we missed Wave 2 here (Starscream, Ripclaw, Bulkhead, Smokescreen), having Starscream re-released in Wave 4 makes it a first release as well.

Just in time for Christmas, Kmart has got in BH Deluxe Starscream, Arcee, Knockout and Vertebreak
