Update on Transformers in Australia

Posted by Hotrod Mar 14, 2007 at 5:30pm CDT 15,815 views
Our own Burn has brought us news about some future Transformers plans for Australia. Griffin of OzFormers has wrote an email to Hasbro AU. Recently he received a reply, however, it is not all good news. Here is the reply Griffin received:

When replying to an e-mail from Griffin, Hasbro AU :
The information we have on hand at present is as follows:

- Classics 'Constructicon Devastator' 5-pack set - No Retailers willing to take this product

- Classics Legends (Whirl, Bumblebee, Jetfire, Menasor) - Available Soon

- Titanium 'Cheetor' and 'Fallen' - Direct import (We do not distribute) imported by Big W

- Reissue Soundwave - TBA

- Micromaster Aerialbots - NO

- Alternators 'Rumble' and 'Ravage' - No decision on this one yet TBA

And is there going to be more Classics Voyager Jetfire released? - No

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

To my friends Down Under, send me a PM and if I can find the bot you want, I'll pick it up and send it to you for cost plus postage.

Screw, retail!

Thanks for the offer.
I've got Jetfire and Revoltech Megatron coming from BBTS, but if I discover anything else I need I'll let you know.

You can probably put a big fat NO next to the alternators too, since Casefresh and direct import stores are the only places that have been selling them (bar the dismal failure of Alt Optimus Prime in Kmart 9 months ago)
Casefresh is still trying to rid themselves of some Alternators, so I doubt they would put their hand up to get 2 more.

Liege Evilmus, you are a true gentlemen. While I'm lucky enough to live in the Uk, I'm sure all tfans down under will appreciate the help you're giving them.

Are you talking about the head office or the distribution centre out the back of St Clair?

The headquarters in Eastwood, the one with the big hasbro symbol that should be changed to Hasblo.
