1. Will the Walmart exclusive DVD set be available here? Out of all the versions that are coming out, this is the one I want most because of the animated prequel.
2. Is the Rodimus Alternator availble/seen here in Adelaide?
3. Is there a Transformer Club here in Adelaide or in Australia in general?
Thanks.
a fellow Adelaidian eh?
1. K-Mart & TRU tend to pick up the Walmart exclusives here.
2. There are toyworlds here somewhere (one at Munno Para) I haven't personally checked.
3. No, sadly.

Gutsman has you covered on all 3 counts.
You can still join the USA Based Collectors Club, but it will set you back a bit of money.
Blasters are down to $50 in Kmart now. Also took the last Dropkick at Kmart Mt Druitt, he was the only non FAB figure on the shelves.
Seems the $20 sale also got rid of all of Kmart's excess Classics Deluxes...
Awesomesauce; Use it, you know you want to.

Shall pick up on question 2
There are 2 toyworlds which are easily accessible one in Adelaide in Harris Scarfe on 2nd level and one in Norwood on Norwood Parade. However neither do have the alt rodimus.

Don't know what the Target in Shepparton is like so I can't report anything. I did see a TF coffee mug the other day there. It changes colour when you put warm liquid in it. Got Prime and Megs on it. Might get to go with my Hello Kitty and Eeyore mugs.
Going to Armageddon Expo this weekend so I might pick up some nice goodies from that. Looking forward to meeting Neil Kaplan who is one of the guests at this event. It aint Botcon but it will do.

Target Blacktown had nothing from their catalogue. No Voyagers, No Ultimate Bumblebee's, or Leaders. Did not even look like they had either, as the shelves had no spaces between all the Beamers, Caribiners and FAB Megatron's.
Can't say I didnt expect it though.

Chatswood Kmart:
Zip, unless you count robot Heroes and Cyber Stompers. So much for their sale.
Chatswood TRU:
- Too Many Megatron Turnarounds for $50
- Robot Replicas for $30
- a few Blackout and Frenzy FAB's for $28
Kinokuniya:
- Art of Transformers x6 for $70
- Best Battles of Prime and Megatron for $28
And if anyone is still looking for the Beast Wars Profile Book, try PhantomZone in Chatswood, they still had 3 copies left.

ShinTokyo in Adelaide was stocked with MP Megs and the encore line, so if you want a MP Megs without the fuzz breaking down the door go there!

I tried to email these guys but they are yet to respond. How much were they selling MP Megatron for?
Edit: Just received a reply - $199.90 in stock and selling fast!
Thanks for the notice Gutsman Heavy!

Thanks.
Alternator Hotrod is a rare piece to get if you live outside of the Champions of Origin State (QLD for you non League followers).
But he should set you back about $40-$50 plus postage if you can find a seller of them.

Griffin is a good guy, he is who I got my Alt Roddy from.
Anywho, sightings:
TRU Chatswood:
Unless you want a $50 Megatron Turnaround, or some Star Wars TF, don't even bother entering, I mean they don't even have the $49.99 G1 styled Jazz figures!
Didnt bother checking Target or Kmart, they have been bitter disappointments for me the last 6 weeks.
