    If anyone is interested, Big W just out of the Queen St Mall in Brisbane has a single Dark Scorponok. Nothing else new, bah. And Comics Etc in... um... Elizabeth St? The one Borders is in, anyway. Has World's Smallest Transformers in for $20 each. Apparently so expensive because they couldn't get them through their usual suppliers, since Megatron is part of the assortment and customs wouldn't let a replica gun into the country.

    ... weird, as the gun is so damned tiny and fake-looking.

    Anyways, I got Thrust, Red Alert and Megatron. I really wanted Prime, Megs and Soundwave or Prowl, but oh well...

    I saw LOC Wave 2, the Rail Bots and Supreme Star Scream at Toys R Us in Perth. TRU is also having a made jazz holding, so Alts got dropped down to $20 a piece. But there were jazz's everywhere. Wish I had a bit more cash as I would have picked up a few more LOCs for sure, especially Megatron and Starscream.

    Was browsing K-mart and saw Undermine and Breakdown. Not sure if any others were released at the same time (was expecting to see Red Alert and maybe Override). But it looks like the next wave is coming ashore.

    Absolutely awesome. I got one last week, and it's the best Cybertron toy released so far. There's the added bonus that he has two tools that can be placed over his crippled arm - nice touch and they'll never get lost, as you can fit them in his engine compartment.

    I noticed the Railbots hit Kmart, although I only managed to get 5 of thr 6. Did the Constructicon ones ever hit retail? As Ive noticed the Railbots are Wave 3, while Im pretty sure the Protectorbots were Wave 1.

    Myers Queen St Mall in Brisbane (level 3 for the toy department) has all the "new" ones. Armorhide, Undermine, Override, Mudflap, Leobreaker, Red Alert - as well as everything released until this point. Picked up Override and Undermine from there this morning, Leobreaker last week (when they only had one).

    Yeah, they got a real small shipment in a week and a bit ago, then a big one (well, for Myers) this week. Yay ^^ Apparently one of their dockjockies is a TF fan, too, and gets at least one of everything unpacked. Interesting trivia.

    I haven't seen anything else new anywhere else, though, but there was some heroes of cybertron stuff at Big W in Queen St last week... didn't see it this morning, but they've stocked up a little on deluxes again.
