HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!

good one Burn!

thanks for that tip off Justmike, just got Leader Brawl at Whitfords. There were three left after mine. They also had 3 Voyager Primes and a Voyager Megs.

Bite me tree hugging hippy. I really want to offload these guys. I have absoloutely no use for them, and there might be someone out there who missed them when they were released as a Target exclusive a few years back.

Fair enough about the figure, I'm sure someone out there does want it. I've been looking for the multi-coloured version for some time now.

But calling me a Hippy? I'm a westie from the western suburbs of Sydney, not Byron Bay. Geez Burn, get it right the second time.

You're a hippy. You've proved that in the "evil" thread with Liege Evilmus.

As far as sightings go Ive seen the movie Robot Heroes. Would have bought them but not all of them were there. I like to buy things like that in one go. Last TF things I bought were War Within Vol 2 and TF vs GIJOE tpb's when I was in Melbourne last week. I wasn't feeling the best that day so I couldn't be stuffed going on a TF toy hunt. Im highly awaiting the Elita One figure however .

Being lazy equates to being a Hippy now? I see we have very different meanings of hippy then.

Melbourne CBD is a pain in the butt to tf hunt it.
Still miles ahead of Sydney CBD though.

Big W Plumpton had a new stock up of Cyber Slammer's, including Brawl and Ratchet. First time I've seen those figures outside of TRU.

As I said Trunks I wasn't feeling the best that day. So my TF hunt consisted of going to Minatour (where I saw a IDW G1 calander and the prequel novel which I didn't buy ) and Comics R Us. Maybe another time.

I'm in total agreance with you Elita One, even when you're feeling great Melbourne isnt the easiest place to hunt for Tf's.
However it has 2 comic shops, some decent import stores and some actual chain stores in the CBD. Sydney only has 1 comic store, 1 decent book store, a Myer, a DJ's and a Woolworths in the CBD.

Kmart catalogue is now up.

I hate that they are claiming Ultimate Bumblebee as an exclusive.

I know there's another section for this, but i thought it might be more applicable here in the aussie thread.
i was gonna chuck the following stuff on ebay. anyone interested to buy or trade?

Not directly Transformers related, but thought it was worth a mention.

My local Mr Toys Toyworld has an absolute mountain of Road Bots. Interesting to see them in stores, thought the only place I'd ever see them is online.

Seeing them up close, I really can't believe how much they rip off Transformers designs, especially Binaltech/Alternators Tracks.

My work (kmart) got some more stock in today for the sale, but nothing exciting. 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.

Sold 3 or 4 Ult. BBs so far so im guessing we'll sell out of them pretty quickly at the special price.

Not toy related, but I saw this pretty cool looking packaging for the movie dvd release on the JB Hi Fi website. DVD packaging that actually TRANSFORMS???

Pre-ordered my copy

Both Big W and Target have had them recently too. Big W had the smaller ones for about $40, yet Target has them for $25.
Only seen a few neon green and blue rice burners and the Land rover so far.

So it seems that set is not a Ezydvd exclusive...
Price is more or less the same though.

Front Paged and Credited JustMike, some people may still want this version and have missed the EZyDVD preorder.

did a bit of browsing at burwood westfields today, and picked myself up a deluxe brawl, aside from the shoulder issue, i think it's pretty awesome. There was one Ultimate BB left in Kmart as well as one wreckage, one bonecrusher and 2 swindles. In Toyland on ground floor I found 1 Battle damaged Jazz (which i wanted but chose the brawl instead), a payload, one bonecrusher and several swindles. The also had a sale on some Energon toys, i think i saw 3 landmines for $30 and 1 scorpnok for $30 which i was tempted to get. Apart from that, David Jones still has plenty of Voyager megatrons and Primes. Happy hunting guys!

Despite advertising, K-Mart doesn't have a single Ultimate Bumblebee. So much for my refund plan.

Target had a heap of Barricade and Bumblebee Robot Replicas though, the latest and only new stuff around here.

Still hanging out for LC Brawl.

Titanium Sunstorm and Ultra Magnus at Toys R Us at Parra Westfields NSW. About 4 of each at $30.

Saw leader Brawl the other day at Target tea tree plaza, (Adelaide)

Still no '08 BB

I couldn't find my receipt Ah well, I'm happy with paying $120 for him.

Can anyone tell me 100% whether Mr Toys Toyworld is owned by the same people that own Toyworld? they have the same logo/mascot, but that doesn't mean much in this day and age. Really want a Rodimus Alternator.

I thought I read that one was found at Mr Toys, but I cant find the source, mark it as a maybe Trunks.

Have you guys had any experiences with Mr Toy? I wonder if they deliver to Sydney? If anyone gets word please post as I too am very keen on one

Hahah, I couldn't find mine either.

Don't know about same ownership. I know there's individual franchises, that's about it.

Lucky I held off trying to get Rodimus. Last time I got Nemesis Prime off Ebay then he turned up in stores.

Rodimus is meant to be sold for $40.

Camden Toyworld has not gotten him in stock yet.

hey peoples

toys r us parra and liverpool are overflowing with leader megatrons....(i got mine back in june decpite the negatives bout this guy he is worth it, he displays nicly in bot mode)


has anyone spotted delux dropkick yet?

and also, will there be a delux frenzy...love the character but not keen on the FAB, and the one that comes with barricade well he stays inside barricade for me...the robot replicas version looks amazing though. if anyone knows if there will be a delux frenzy or if the FAB is worth it.

cheers
