Okay, here's how it is right now. I called my local Kmart store today (the one in Robina, which is in the state of Queensland for those who don't live in Australia) because I read that somebody in Geelong (which is in the state of Victoria for those who don't live in Australia) bought both sets from their Kmart store. And that's when the good news turned sour, because it seems that Kmart in Robina doesn't have either set in stock, which is a shame because I would really like to get my hands on 'goody-two-shoes Menasor' and 'don't-touch-me-or-I'll-knock-you-into-next-megacycle' Defensor. So I've narrowed it down to three possibilities:
1. There are a load of adult collectors in the Gold Coast that really do like the commander-sets and won't admit to it, meaning those of us who openly admit we do are left without...given that freedom is the right of all sentient beings
2. Little kids are forcing their parents to buy them the biggest, newest PCC five-packs and tearing them to pieces even as I speak...given that freedom is the right of all sentient beings, including still-developing children
3. Only select stores in Australia are stocking wave 2 PCCs right now...given that freedom is the right of all sentient beings, so why can't we all have them to buy if we so freedse...er...choose?
As I said before, I'm really looking forward to picking-up the Rallybots (of which I shall name the combined robot 'Road Caesar') and the Destructicons (of which I shall name the combined robot 'Monstructor').
For more info on names for my Power Core teams in combined mode, please refer to my new signature.
EDIT: I decided to make my signature a leetle bit...different. It's a snippet of Arcee's interview on the set of ROTF, so no combiner names.

Option #4 - TF's NEVER see a simultaneous nation wide release in Australia. Trust me, the southern states will get their stuff before Qld and even when South East Qld get the stuff it still takes a number of weeks for new TF's to filter even further north.

Ah, okay. Thanks for the heads-up Blurrz.
