Toyfair Australia Transformers pics

As the title suggests, there wasn't anything new (that I was allowed to show), so this is just for people who like looking at toy displays.

[Links are hidden for guests. Please Register.]

Not a lot of photos, as the Australian Toyfair prohibits photos unless you are main media (but I get permission to take a few photos each year).

Items on display...
Wave 1 Beast Hunters figures & Wave 2 Deluxes.
Both Beast Hunters Ultimates are general release here and were on display.
Generations FOC toys and the two Voyager Triplechangers in packaging.
No Metroplex toy, just a box mock-up and images (colour Metroplex and greyscale Scamper - I wasn't permitted to show that one though)
BotShots Wave 1 figures, & Wave 2 singles.
Construct-Bots Wave 1 (prototype toys that were at US Toyfair).
Kreo Beast Hunters, Combiners and Wave 1 blind-packs.
Both Kreo 5-pack Minifigures (with the mystery figure on the end)

"Nothing New?" I think the note of "three faces" on Blitzwing's box is news. (unless I missed it) His bio is clearly Animated's.

Three faces! Excellent. I am completely okay with Animated Blitzwing's characteristics being carried forward.

>3 faces



I'm guessing the third face we haven't seen yet is based on the crazy face since the G1ish one already has characteristics of the angry face.

Also I haven't read about the kreon five packs before. Those will be hella helpful for getting extra parts without having to buy the entire kit.
Want to buy: Asia Exclusive Onslaught; PM me if interested

Interesting the Metroplex box (I think) is blurred out.

Hasbro AU requested that Griffin (The Photographer) Blur out certain things they didn't want to be shown; Normally photography is a no-no at Australian Toyfairs but Hasbro decided to be generous this year (Previous years have had to of been somewhat more covert).

Yes! Three faces!

And I wonder how much of this stuff shown at the Australian ToyFair we'll actually get in Australia. Nice to see Wave 3 of Generations Voyagers when we've been sitting on Wave 1 for about five months...
