Wow, I was not expecting the Nerf guns to be that expensive...
How much $$$ did that haul put you back Mulla? just a estimate, so I know how much money I will probably be spending in the next fortnight or so

Ill wait to get the voice changer helmet, seeing as all the Vadar ones are now on sale everywhere for about $40, I expect similar things with Prime.

Must find Plushies....

Grand total of $441.37
Would have been $529.65 but the 20% off really helped

Blacktown Target got the Cyber Slamers, Voyagers and Deluxes, Yay! Got me a Barricade, goddamn he's a great figure, I'd say he's sexy, but, you know, his face >_> STILL HE ROCKS.

I agree. Shame his head doesn't move though. It's the one thing wrong with that figure.

PLEASE DON'T YELL AT ME FOR WHAT I AM ABOUT TO POST

I know this has nothing to do with toy sightings but I posted this thread on the movie forum and didn't get any bites. Goktimus Prime of OzFormers is trying to organise numbers for a midnight screening premiere in Sydney (Fox Studios, MArket City or George St depending). At the moment we are just trying to get an idea of numbers so could you give me a yay or nay in this thread or the other one I posted in the movie forum.

Kind Regards folks.
P.S Klownkiller I already know you are coming so you can just ignore this.

Any chance that heads from figures of other lines will fit these figures? Because I would be seriously tempted.
Hell Im already thinking about removing the heads of figures that fold away in alt mode, and using blu-tak or a smiley face drawn on paper to take the part of the head when in robot mode.

Its amazing how much it helps, even the 5% discount my gf gets from working at coles helps a bundle.

Im tempted to drop into Target on my way to my car tonight now FangWolf... but I know that in another week or so they will be on sale... really want Ratchet and the plushies...
Must show restraint!

Yeah, I was expecting to spend over $600 or so, because I thought they would have Ironhide, Starscream, Bonecrusher and maybe Megatron.

Good luck with the plushies. They rule on so many levels. Comfy to cuddle too.

Thanks for the heads up klownkiller! I got them both today, and there was a 30% off sale as well. I think the sale was just for today though, I'm not sure. There's only one Starscream left now anyway

I concur, You realy need to hold them.

@ Trunks, think RiD or Cybertron Downshift for headsize of the deluxes.

I hope to get Bumbles or Blackout on Thurs ^__^

Sightings: Please note all of these are from Friday Afternoon (Had the day off to go Skydiving) so apologies if the stock is no longer there.

Target Penrith:
Movie Deluxes, 4 of each:
- Jazz, Bumblebee, Brawl, Barricade, Scorponok :$26.95
- Optimus Transforming Blaster x3 :$64.95
- Movie Protoforms x7 of each :$26.95

Kmart Penrith:
- Movie Protoforms x over 10 each in Seasonal Section, another 6 of each in toy aisle :$29.95

TRU Penrith:
- All the Real Gear Robots. Seemed to have more Longview's and the Gameboy figures. Out of the 30+ figures they had only 3 Phones and 6 cameras. :$14.99

Still no sightings of Plushies or Heroes stuff.

Bought myself 3 of the Real gear figures, left Longview and all the deluxes, as buying my Skydiving DVD, Adam Hills tickets and 5 years worth of License took quite a chunk out of my pay.

Really want the Prime Blaster, but I cannot justify the $65 price tag. Ill wait and hope they get to clearance prices.

Saw a poster up for the movie yesterday while walking past the local cinema whilst going to Hudsons for a latte. Just the teaser one with the Autobot logo. Also TF was mentioned in a article in the Sunday Hearld Sun in regards to movie merchandise. Put up a scan asap.

Trunks did the real gears (Camera, Game-bot) have cyb or movie pics on em?

Spyshot (Camera) has a pic of what looks like Cybertron Ransack. Ive already got the "hey you look different on camera" joke about 4 times from various family members.

Power Up (Gameboy) has a pic of Cybertron Jetfire firing off a barrage of missiles, but it had "Decepticon" written on it, even though its still easy enough to see Jetfires Autobot logo...

Speed Dial (Phone) has the Autobot logo on both the inside and outside stickers, with the time as 7.47.

I have not got Longview (binoculars), so I cannot say who he has on him.

Also, Blacktown Cinema has a HUGE display, its about 4 metres long and 2 metres tall. It has 3 fold marks along it, because it is far too big to fit into any door. Perfect for photos though...

An upside down picture of Cybertron Landbullet. Is that his name? Big green three-wheeler that is partnered with Ransack in the show.

Still can't work out why they didn't use images of the movie characters. At least Takara has the right idea

It's Cybertron Crumplezone in vehicle mode... and yes - it's upside down!

You guys may want to check it out. If there is anything left for you to buy Mulla, you may want to get it from target.

There is also a comp, detailed on pages 3-5 entries open today, and close June 28th. Just spend $25 in store and enter online.

Im so happy today! Yesterday (Monday) I went to Target, Shepparton after class and you will never guess what was in? That's right TF movie stuff.They had everything cept the plushies. I bought Optimash and the Robot Heroes toys.All up I spent $65, not as much as Mulla :p. I'd put up pics but Im writing this at a family friends house. Put em up later.

guys on a side note have you all read the article on target here: http://www.seibertron.com/news/view.php?id=10460

here's the proposal, we all try and go into the comp for the screening of the movie, and if any of us win we try and all go, well at least 20 of us in the winners capital city.

i'm game to do it, what about you guys?

Yes, I'm somewhat aware of the article.

Sounds good to me, but I dont expect any Transformers fan over the age of about 12 to win. Little kiddies are the usual winners of these kinds of things.

Sounds good! (Wish I had known about this comp before I spent well over $25 on TFs 2 days ago though!!!)

Btw, I just popped in to another Target and they had Unleashed Bumblebee - I have to say... it looks amazing!

indeed thats why I'll use my little brother for the purpose of this competition, hell if he wins I may let him tag along!

Cheers for pointing that out mate! I was planning on getting Robo-Vision voyager Prime when he comes in, so that will help. I already have 10 tickets to the advance screening up here, but another free session? Yeah, I could go for that

So if I win, any of you southerners up for a trip to BrisVegas?

So my purchases yesterday can't be used as proof right? D'oh!I know some "little kids" who would love enter this comp (not just me okay) . Im sure my sister and I could think of something. Could use the little kids we know to help.
