EB Games canada always gets the MPs from now one, just like entertainment earth. But no one really cares since its consistently more pricey to get it from them than japanese vendors.

Greetings Seibertronians, especially those in the land down under! Following on from preorders for the first four of the Seacons, EB Games Australia and Zing Pop Culture have opened up pre-orders for the last two Seacons! These are of course Overbite (who is a retool of Power of the Primes Rippersnapper) and Tentakill (who is a retool of Power of the Primes Moonracer). They are both retailing for Aus $78 and require a Aus $10 deposit. Check out the links below!

While the big Australia Toy Fair reveal was stolen from under their nose, there are lots of new sightings for anticipated toys that hopefully make up for it. These all come from the Ozformers Facebook page. There is even news of a current deal on Transformers at Myer. Monday (the 9th) is the last day of this deal.

"20% off Transformers (and most toys) at Myer this weekend - ends Monday 9th March.
Just in time for some new Earthrise and Studio Series toys, if your nearest Myer has done some re-stocking this week.

Transformers Earthrise updates for Australia.
After they started showing up in some Toyworlds and Myer stores last week, people are now seeing the Deluxe and Voyager sizes at Kmart stores around the country.
Kmart prices are the same as their Siege prices - $29 for Deluxe, $49 for Voyager.
Myer have the Deluxe, Voyager and Leader classes.
Toyworld are still the only ones so far with Micromasters and Battlemasters.
-
Also worth noting that Kmart have been getting in a new shipment of Studio Series toys as well, with the recent wave of Deluxe (Soundwave, Hotrod, Triplets, Bumblebee) and an older wave of Voyager (Long Haul, KSI Boss).
-
Some first sightings from the last week...
- Cyberverse Ultimate w4 Optimus & Shockwave (at Toyworld).
- Cyberverse Ultra w6 Clobber, Hotrod, Bumblebee (at Toyworld).
- Botbots series 5 single packs (yellow bubbles) at a Target in NSW.
- Rescue Bots Academy 4-pack for a very cheap $49 (it has $76 worth of toys) found at Kmart.
- Rescue Bots Mini Racers for $7 (six toys - Optimus, Bumblebee, Heatwave, Hoist, Whirl, Hotshot) found at Kmart."

There is a big sale coming up in Australia's Big W stores in June. The best deal is 44% off all leader class toys, in the various Transformers toy lines. Also, they include Sky Lynx in the sale, meaning he should be in stock there soon. He is meant to be a temporary exclusive where he will only be available at Big W for the first 3 months of release and then come to other retailers as well.

Here is all the info from Ozformers.

BigW mid-year TOY SALE starts soon.

-

Skylynx is noted as a BigW exclusive, which is true for about 3 months, when it is allowed to be sold by other retailers. (Kmart & Target are NOT getting it)
The examples of the Leader & Voyager toys in the catalogue may not be the new items or waves in the stores for the sale... we will have to wait until the new stock arrives at stores in the next two weeks.
Leader class is not a regular size at BigW, so when their Toy Sale stock sells out, they might not get more in.
The Nitro toys also look to be a one-off shipment, so should stay at $15 until they sell out (they used to be $35).
Both Leader & Voyager are shown with examples of Studio Series and Generations WFC toys, so the sale price should apply to both series.
Scorponok was not scheduled for this sale, but should show up at BigW (and some other retailers) around September/October (subject to demand).

Greasepit, Rotorstorm and Hubcap on EB Games. Also available via Zing. $40AU each, $10AU deposit each. That makes them $11AU more than regular retail price, not too bad, but still a rort.

Huh, I expected a lot worse. Especially after the seacons, interesting.

Also you say $40 AUD is $11 more than retail price, but I can't find deluxes for that price anymore here. They're either all $35 AUD or in the Cyberverse deluxe figure case, $40 AUD.

I only paid $29AU for Ironworks at K-Mart. Even their website has that size point @ $29AU and Earthrise Voyagers @ $49AU

K-Mart FTW!

Netflix wave 2 (leader pack still to be determined), Re-issue Soundwave and cassette packs and wave 2 of mini-bots!

https://www.facebook.com/ozformers/post ... 5126492848

A post from Ozformers tells us that wave 2 will come to KMart. They are still not sure about the leader class, but the rest should be there, if all goes well, in October. Below you will find an image of the Wave 2 assortment, posted by Takara.

Also, KMart will be getting the G1 Soundwave reissue, finally.

And, Generations Selects Rotorstorm, Greasepit And Hubcap are currently available for preorder from EB Games and Zing for the Australian market. Each figure is listed for $40 AUD, with a $10 AUD deposit. They will be coming out in August.

Actually only Rotorstorm is coming out in August here on the 1st and the others are coming out in September and October

Heads up ... Scorponok will most likely not see a wide retail release, but Amazon AU currently have him up for pre-order (Sept 1 release date) for $246.25 which is probably the best deal you're going to get for him.

Ozformers posted some interesting news for both Australian fans and worldwide fans. They will be hosting a new Transformers reveal November 5th. The details are on their Facebook post which can be read below.

Also below is another post from them where they give details on the KMart exclusive Netflix Transformers toys, including prices, which have been sighted and which ones are expected to arrive. We posted images of the KMart catalogue they are found in which also includes a really good deal on the Cyberverse armour figures at only $9 AUS (which is $6 USD).

Australian Transformers toy reveal update.
As noted the other day, the reveal had to be pushed back a week because the toy samples were not going to be able to get here in time for today's planned reveal.
The new day and times are as follows...
.
REVEAL
- Thursday NOV 5th at 4pm for Brisbane timezone
- Thursday NOV 5th at 5pm for Sydney/Melbourne timezone
- Thursday NOV 5th at 1am for the New York timezone
- Thursday NOV 5th at 2pm for the Hong Kong timezone
(I was hoping we could do it a few hours earlier so that it wasnt in the middle of the night for people in America, but this will be the earliest we are allowed to do it before the scheduled listing of pre-orders. I guess people in America will be able to see what it is like for us in Australia, with the new reveals always being at about 1am here.)
.
PRE-ORDERS (at any online store listing this item) can be put up after these times...
- Friday NOV 6th at midnight for Brisbane timezone
- Friday NOV 6th at 1am for Sydney/Melbourne timezone
- Thursday NOV 5th at 9am for the New York timezone
- Thursday NOV 5th at 10pm for the Hong Kong timezone
.
Hopefully there will be no more delays.

Netflix Transformers toys featured in the new Kmart sale catalogue.
Starting OCT 29th until November 11th, is a pre-christmas catalogue that has the three size classes of Generations Netflix toys... not on sale, but just advertised as new and exclusive to Kmart.
https://www.kmart.com.au/catalogue...
Not that they need to be discounted, as they are already quite well priced compared to their US pricing.
Deluxe - $29 (wave 2 sighted - some wave 1 sighted in WA that could just be old stock)
Voyager - $49 (only wave 1 sighted - wave 2 was expected)
Leader - $89 (wave 1 sighted - only wave 1 expected)
Unfortunately, Kmart Australia have only managed to send these new Transformers toys out to QLD stores so far, so other states may not have them in time for their official sale period... but NOTE that they are not listed as "no rainchecks", so you can have them reserved for you when they do show up at your nearest store. (not sure how it will work with the smaller sizes that have an assortment, as you may just have to guess the number too reserve, and hope you get the ones you want).
