I guess we are all burnt out from the July sales/ waiting for re-stocks huh?

I still have a coles giftcard from my birthday that I am meant to buy a voice changer helmet with, so I've been on a continuous lookout.

Gf found plenty of Voice changer helmets in Kmart Penrith, but is uncertain how many are of each version (if any are the Cullen version). Also found a few Voyager Starscreams, and a few of each blaster.

She also found some Alternator Prime's in the normal Transformers shelf space, no price tag, but they have been getting cheaper and cheaper of late, as well as some Classics Minicons.

Okay it seems some Kmarts do in fact ahve the Cullen version of the Voice changer helmets...

Due to the 25% off sale they have come down to $52, not too shabby.

Kmart Mt Druitt had about 15 of the helmets, at least 6 of each blaster, and about 20 Cyber Slammer Bumblebee's and more than a dozen Robot Heroes Decepticon Sneak Attack packs, all 25% off.

No actual deluxe or Voyager figures though.

-EDIT-
Also found the 2 new Real gear figures; Meantime and High Score 100 in Big W in Plumpton, so or those in NSW who are still looking for them, try Big W now.

I went to post that over a week ago but haven't been able to find this thread :P Damn the Sightings Forum not been in the dropdown menu or the sidebar.

Picked them up for $10 each, don't know how though, there was no sale. High Score's alright, but Mean Time rocks. Now if we can just find a kitbasher you can put in a cheap lcd watchface...............

Id be over an LCD modded Meantime in seconds. High Score is all win too, but he is a little squat.

Anywho visited a new TRU at castle Hill NSW today, they had all the movie stuff out, (but $100 for the helmet, please.).
Stuff:
- Unleashed Barricade, Bumblebee x6 each
- Cyber Slammin' Brawl, Ratchet, Prime x3 each
- FAB Ironhide x2, Prime x3, Starscream x4
- 3 inch Titanium Prime x5, Bumblebee x2, Blackout x8
- Deluxe Swindle x2, Wreckage x3, Dreadwing x1, Arcee x2, Scorponok x2
- Scorponok & Blackout sets x8
- Prime Helmets, Prime Blasters, and transforming blasters x more than you can poke a stick at.

Also had some classics Cliffjumpers, Prime's, Megatrons; a buch of minicon teams and some Classics vs. teams

Hi guys I'm new to this forum but i'm glad to find a few Aussies around here. Went to Parra Westfields today and it seems that Kmart and TRU both had a fair number of Classics toys in particular Ramjet, Mirage (TRU) and Cliffjumper; I think Kmart sells them at $28 and it's $25 at TRU. TRU also had quite a number of Dual Blackout and Scorpnook figures for $50.

I'll have to check out some Cole's stores, the one my gf works at had a few about a month ago, but they sold out quick smart.

Having real trouble finding a second Highscore.

TRU Penrith had half a dozen Prime Unleashed "bookends" to go with their single Classics Cliffjumper, and over a dozen Movie Blackout/Scorponok 2 packs.

Saw the Ultimate Bumblebee at Target the other day. $120 bucks for the little bugger. He is cool though, he dances and stuff.

Only $120??? That's not half bad, considering he is going for US$120!

Bad news for Sydneysiders, AstroHobby (in Town Hall) is closing down. Not 100% sure if they are relocating as they are selling absolutely everything off.

Only had 1 Superlink Insecticon and a Superlink Bulkhead left.

Hey my fellow aussies. I come from Tassie and i'm surprised at the kind of stuff we even get. Based on size alone, not age or damage, but only size. My current collection has reach just over $6,000. i also very recently picked up a couple of old and in A+ conldition figugres of G1 Bombshell and Soundwave (with Buzzsaw). Any other tasmaniaians on here?

Everything I listed in my last post is already gone.

However the Coles my gf works at (in Western Sydney) seem to have the newer wave of Real Gear figures, so if you cannot find Meantime and High Score anywhere, try your local Coles.

Alot of toys ive been getting in stock have said Advert for September 20th so Im guessing there'll be a few toys in the Kmart catalogue starting next Thursday, and seeing as we got several boxes of Ultimate BB in today I was assuming they'll be on special in the catalogue, soon see I guess.
