    Aussies aren't lucky. I'm an Aussie sighting all these toys but I'm broke. I'd say I'm extra unlucky :(  But they do look good on the pegs.

    I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that you've mis-transformed Prime cause his wheels are supposed to touch the ground :) 
    And... his kneecaps aren't supposed to be extended though i could see why some might prefer it that way.

    Would any of them be hitting West Australia soon? I've been seeing nothing but ROTF and Animated shelfwarmers everytime I go to a department store. >.=.< I want Drift so badly.

    Good thing Im only after Drift hehehe. I can wait a little while more before I go out to hunt for one in BIgW since they just came out Im sure more will be flushed out to fill the shleves. Also got my PCC on Lay buy so that I dont miss on them. Dont worry all you US based TF collectors its not often we get things down here first so its just a matter of weeks before you get your fix. Also I guess Hasbro US is more concentrating in the upcoming US only Botcon anyways which is prolly where theyd spring out these figs first over there and then slowly trickle them out after in your local shops. Also as mentioned we get gipped in pricing here, factoring in even the shipping - (they ship in bulk anyways , so it shouldnt be THAT much!?) we still get f#@$D big time here all the time. And ShakyMc Shark - no it does not make up for us NOT getting the last animated stuff - not in any way. Damn you know who ( but not so loud,. lest they hear) ..... aka liegeprime of OTCA

    Just picked up my Cybertron Optimus Prime today (after laybying Drift, Dirge, Bumblebee and Seaspray). I don't know if this has been mentioned yet but the holes in his hand and the peg on his transforming gun are hexagonal, as well as having holes on his forearms and his shoulders (on the back's of the front wheels, tucked up behind him).

    I mean, it's not new to be able to swap about some weapons, Energon style, but based on gameplay footage it wouldn't be a long shot to imagine you can outfit Prime and your own made Transformers in-game with a bunch of different weapons. Am I the only one who'd like to see a packet/on-card of additional accessory transforming weapons, McFarlane Halo style?

    Looks like Aussie prices are very similiar to UK prices, i.e. stupidly overblown.

    Sorry to hear about Sri Lanka prices though, that's INSANE! I'd never afford a single figure at those costs.

    WFC Prime looks fail, back wheels dont touch the ground and he looks nothing like the game render. Bee looks hideous from the front but is otherwise OK looking.

    Leader Starscream still look rockin', pity it'll be about 2 years before we see him at a decent price in the UK :(
