Thanks WJ!
OKay, Feb 1st, thanks for the info straight from Hasbro.

But, you wrote " The voyagers Hot Rod and Scourge from Transformers Studio Series 86 have been spotted."

Do you think they were put out early by mistake and won't be available in most places until Feb 1st, or does this mean they might get an early release? Do they sometimes get released earlier than the stated date?

Thanks!

Toyworld have no interest in your dates. Toyworld does what Toyworld wants.

Yes, toys are often released at retail before the release date. And at other times, they come out later.

While the Studio Seires SS 86 voyagers were found in Australia a few days ago, it was in a small chain. But now, they have been found in Kmart. And not only that, but the SS 86 deluxe class toys, Jazz, Kup, & Blurr, have also been found there. Ozformers posted about this on their Facebook page providing info on the exact location and why they think they were put on shelves early:

When the Voyagers were found at a couple of Toyworlds in Victoria last week, it was assumed to be another case of Toyworld releasing toys too early, but today they were being found at Kmart stores in Victoria, along with the Deluxe wave as well... so it looks like this next wave of Studio Series toys, featuring characters from the 1986 Transformers Movie, are indeed being released early in Australia (before any other country), to cash in on Christmas.
Fingers crossed we see these at more stores around the country, and the Leader pack (Grimlock with Wheelie) as well.

If you have found them, share your sightings with our community in the sightings section and on our boards in your region related thread.

Wow, I totally misread that. I thought you said it was yours, and I was happy for you.
Sorry about how that looked.

You read that right, a toy that has yet to be officially revealed by Hasbro, T-Wrecks, has been found in stores. If only they had an event to reveal him before he was found but alas. As suspected, he is in Kingdom packaging. This is said to be a Red Card exclusive at Target in the US. It was found at Toyworld in Australia and posted on Reddit. By zooming in, we can see that the sample we saw earlier had the correct head, which is the same as Beast Wars Megatron.

Speaking of toys found in Australia, we also have commander class Rodimus Prime. Transformers Kingdom Rodimus Prime was spotted on the shelves at a Big W store in Miranda. The price was AU$149. That was posted on Twitter.

Here I was, expecting T-Wrecks to be a Generations Selects.

Some folks have said their order hasn't been cancelled so it may be a case of Amazon.com.au getting SOME stock but not getting ENOUGH stock (be it from Big Brother Amazon or Hasbro themselves) to cover all the pre-orders.

No one is avoiding anything, there is just not enough people. If you have time, it would help if you write the news articles you find lack on the site and I (or zerowolf) could front page it. You have the power to make things better.

A friend in Brisbane picked up this dude yesterday and is probably going back for Scraphook today. Legacy Hot Shot was also there! I'll ask which store, suburb etc.

I'll be checking my local stores this weekend just in case they've made it over to NZ!

Probably EB Games/Zing or even JB Hi-Fi.

That's pretty much where Transformers are heading these days, the likes of Big W, K-Mart and Target pick and choose what they want.
