Our own i_amtrunks has dropped us a line informing us of a new release in Australia. Vert of TAAU has reported finding Hasbro's Soundwave reissue. The figure was found at Toys "R" Us in Erina, and costs $49.99.

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Crap in a hat. No TRUs in Tasmania for some strange reason.

$49.95 is a reasonable price, I was expecting closer to $80 considering other reissues.

And yet I've given up on finding the damn thing in Maryland.

I feel like I've been mugged.

This news on the same day that my order from BBTS ships.
I swear I'm cursed.
First I order Jetfire from them and then cancel him because I find him in a local shop, and now on the same day that my order that includes soundwave is being shipped, he's found here too!

At least there haven't been any sightings of Revoltech Megatron in Australia yet...

Penrith did not have any as of last night, but they are often the last to get anything.
Since I work in Artarmon, maybe a quick visit to Chatswood TRU is in order... must see how far it is from the Station...

Trunks, it's very close to the station, in Westfields. There were heaps there too, I actually got three :P

The fun part is trying to get there while they are still open. Thursday is the only chance I'll get I'd say.

And why am I not surprised you got 3?

Had the bidding ended when you first posted the link? because it has now, and thus will not be up much longer. For anyone that does miss it, know it went for 3 times the TRU asking price.

I cannot believe it went that high, especially as if you were after a G1 Soundwave (Soundblaster, whatever) one would think you would do some research and find out that he was available in TRU for 1/3 of the price.

What is worse is he has another 3 SOundwaves up for sale, one is over $88, another is at $50 and the last is $20 with 4 days left.
