Australia Transformers sightings

As for the FAB version ... well FAB is suppose to be about quick transformation, he certaintly isn't. If anything he's a deluxe in FAB packaging.
Is he any good? Let me put it this way. I have him displayed in his stereo mode.

Only new stock was the Movie version of the Robot Replicas, got more FAB, Cyber Stompin Primes with the 2 bonus RH (Bumblebee isnt included with the 2 bonus figures), titaniums and one case of classic deluxes. No movie deluxe/voyagers/leader class' unfortunately.
I was at your kmart (Clarkson, Perth) today justmike and got titanium Megs, Jazz and Ironhide. I didn't realise you meant movie titaniums.
anyways, as i was leaving the store i noticed that jazz had his head on backwards, as in facing the wrong way. I decided to keep it as it actually looks kinda cool. it reminds me of that Daft Punk guy with his robo helmet
were there any other movie titaniums out that i missed out on??

so, whats the deal with the super exclusive SDCC figures followed by identical mass produced - not rare at all - figures?
does one purchase this $100+ figure or wait til they're $45 from Casefresh??
i'm sure i'm not the only person who did NOT do this with Nemesis Prime..

Hey I told you I had the Tinea, but you went and wore my slippers anyway..
Ive done a ring around of Toyworld Camden, Ulladulla and Bateman's Bay NSW, and not a single store has heard of a new non-movie figure.

I think I still have some overstock out the back that I forgot to fill up on, I cant remember.
And just a heads up that starting next Thursday (4/10)) at K-Mart all Movie Deluxe figures will be $20 (Save $6.99). Pictured in the catalogue is the protoforms, 1974 Bumblebee and Scorponok, and Im betting all that we'll get in is the second wave (08 Bumblebee wave), so Ill have annoying customers asking me where those specific ones are and have to explain we only got the others.

Hey, at least you'll be qualified to answer correctly. If only every Kmart had a JustMike.

At least Kmart can put the right size/line figures in their catalogue, Myer has been using Cybertron Skywarp to stand in as their SWTF for a year now...

Don't know actual % off for the Transformers, but would be willing to be at the 20%-25% range.

And of course Big W has "no rainchecks" on their sale items.

Well soon no kmarts will have a JustMike, ill no longer be at Kmart as of next friday so unfortunately I wont have first dibs on any stock anymore. But I got a job as a rep so atleast I can look through more stores.
Oh and we got our stock in today for next weeks sale, 3 boxes worth, and thatd probably be it. But the good news is its the new movie deluxes (Final Battle Jazz, Paylod, Long Arm etc). But I suggest getting in before the sale if your want 08 Bumblebee.

The only person who seems to have a Rodimus is Gutsman at the moment...

Yep, finally found Rodimus yesterday. Springwood Mr. Toys had 5, I picked up two. So that seems to be the place to get em in the Brissy area.

Also, a bit late but I managed to nab a Ult BB when it was on sale at Marion for $89.95 there were 4 left last week on Sunday I believe.
Also has there been any sightings of Alt Rodimus in SA?

If anyone wishes to see some shots i very "Prime" pictures, i can e-mail them to you.
LOL, there are like 2 left in Myer Rundle Mall Adelaide + Beatmix Bumblebee are $79 bucks there.
+ I managed to secure Sunstorm and Ultra Magnus Titaniums which mysteriously reappeared at Toys r us up Rundle Mall which also has the G1 Jazz repaint (though cheaper to buy through ebay for this item).
Toyworld has the usually lot of overpriced Transformers toys besides Metroplex which is going at $50.

Welcome aboard (so to speak) and nice to see the SA contingent growing.
Were there any wire taps left where you saw them? And did you spot any dropkicks on your travels? (Yet to hear of an SA sighting of that one).
Haven't seen an alt rodimus yet either but I'll post it here if I do. They seem to be only in the eastern states as yet.
