Our own Burn has brought some news about The Big W Toy Spectacular taking place July 6, 2006 in Australia. Burn has pointed out to us that Alphatrion of Theyareamongus.com has gotten a hold of the Big W Toy Spectacular catalogue. And this is what Alphatrion reported:

"The Big W Toy Spectacular catalogue turned up at work yesterday so I swiped a copy. Sale starts on Thursday July 6 and goes for 2 weeks. Layby for pick up as late as Christmas Eve, and as I said earlier in this thread there isn't any 'no deposit' layby this time around.

Transformers are featured on page 24 of the catalogue. Pictured are:

Cybertron Megatron and Optimus Prime for $68.73ea (Save $20). I'm hoping Galvatron is included with this

The Critical Path Sideways/Read Alert Deluxe 2 pack for $23.93 "Exclusive"(Valued at $47.86 seperately). Hasn't this pack been spotted elsewhere making it non-exclusive?

The most interesting is what they're calling a Mega Twin Pack for $49.63 "Exclusive" (Valued at $79.66 seperately). The catalogue only pictures Leobreaker in packaging, so it will be interesting to see what these actually are.

I took a photo of the Transformers part of the catalogue which can be viewed here.

I know in my store the prices for sale items go down about 2pm the day before so staff can put up the shelf talkers. So if the stock is on the floor Wednesday afternoon you should be able to get it at the reduced price.

Happy hunting."
