Pretty much baren shelves for me.... Oh wait Real Gear 2 packs, Cyber Slammers and T.E.C.H stuff.

Though as you mention... the Everett Wal-Mart has been putting out old stock of Transformers so they have a ton of Classics and later Cybertron figures out there. Atleast there stocking something, beats the baren shelves for the other stores.

No awesome discounts. But I found the last Megatron on the shelf of my favourite Big W. So he's got a lot of value to me.

if we include eBay, i have my fair share of w00t deals...

here are some:

10th anni. reissue Ultra-class Primal & Megs,
10th anni. deluxe Primal & Megs (the new mold)
TOTAL = $45.00
-pretty good deal for a near-mint 4-figure lot complete w/ accessories eh?

TM Cheetor & TM Scarem = $ 1.00
~excellent deal for OOB, but excellent condish, figs.

A couple Thursdays ago, I ended up not only snagging Concept Camaro Bumblebee, but also found a new shipment of Classics at the local TRU, and ended up buying Grimlock and Mirage.

Grimlock was disappointing, but Mirage is one of the best TFs I own.

Managed to finally find a Classics Ramjet a few weeks ago.

We have not had the Toy shelves filled with older lines stock like the US has, so it was a very nice surprise.

Finding most of the deluxe TF Classics at 25% was good find I guess. That jumpstarted my collection. Now I have Starscream, Ramjet, Astrotrain, Rodimus, Mirage and Cliffjumper. I got two of SS coz i really liked the sculpt!

That is strange, I picked up another Ramjet last week at tru. Plus the Kmart in the same shopping centre suddenly had one as well. Maybe Australia is getting stocked with a shipment of only Ramjets? I'm making my extra ramjet into a dirge (Ramjet with Dirge colours) and it's looking awesome.

At our SM, either at Toy Kingdom or the Dept. Store. TF Classics here was slow moving compared to the movie toys. Once they took P200 off the tag, the toys were flying off the shelves! They started marking them down 7 weeks ago. Now all they have left here are Astrotrain.
I don't know if other SMs followed suit though...

Going with 08 Bumblebee, yea Ok, not an amazing find but he's a bugger to find in England. Besides, I don't really collect any of the other lines going at the moment (classics, etc).
I was really happy when I found him in Woolworths on a routine sweep of the local toy stores on a day when I actually had money with me.

Nice one, I'll have to check Ebay more often :P
I've never really used Ebay before, how much does postage generally come to when buying a deluxe from the UK?
