I think most Kmart's will be the same Mulla.
This is more or less so they can clear out the "Seasonal Shelves" enough to put all the Transformers stuff back in the toy section.

Be careful if you are after a Prime voice changer helmet, all 3 Kmarts near me have nothing but the fake voice version.

Seems that Kmart only want you to but stuff from the Seasonal section.
Got a call from my gf, who ducked into Penrith Kmart before Uni, they have the "sale" signs plastered over the Seasonal (movie) Section, but not a single scrap of paper mentioning the sale in the actual toy aisle.

Not that it matters, she said there were a few Voyager Screamers, alot of helmets (she cannot tell the difference between them, so not sure which version is which) and a couple of each blaster. As for the actual toy aisle, there were some alt Prime's with no price tag, and some classics minicons.

Nice to know Kmart has gone back to normal after having 6 decent months with the classics and movie lines.

Lol, not after them thanks for the warning though.

Why would they ship in fakes?

Decent with movie line - yes.
Decent with Classics - :))

That's a laughable matter. They were okay with the first wave, but put it this way. Ramjet only turned up a month or two ago.

I'm just glad I found Arcee and an '08 Bumblebee at Toyworld in Cherside last week. The likelihood of them turning up on the coast within the next 2 months is highly doubtful.

Not fakes as such, just a ring in guy, instead of Cullen.

Popped into Kmart Mt Druitt, they had nothing bar a solitary Classics Mirage in the toy section, but heaps of the blaster, helmets and Robot Heroes Sneak Attack set in the Seasonal area.

Managed to find a Cullen Helmet (stock was about 50/50 with the "fake') for a nice $52!

It doesnt make you sound much like Prime at all, but it sure id a damn lot of fun, and it freaked my cat out.

There is no way Kmart is going to sell off the Blasters and Helmets they have left, the boxes are mostly trashed, and my helmet had a good thick layer of dust on it. They are going to sit and rot on shelves, much like the Target Pc's and Beamers are.

This was one complaint I had with this line. Too many kiddie stuff.
