    Been to two Kmarts now, still no Cosmos sightings. (Or Scourge but that’s due to shelf space.)

    Honestly thinking of starting a cryptid sighting website for Cosmos sightings lol.

    Do you think with Australia Post suspending incoming sea mail services that it will make a significant impact to stock from overseas and preorders?

    Impossible to say. All the stuff I've bought from overseas retailers comes in by air, and I can't recall the last time I saw an option for anything else. I did have one parcel move by boat from China last year (when flights were suspended), but that's the only one I know of in more than 25 years of buying stuff like this (although I would not be surprised to find that lots of parcels I bought from the US over 15 years ago, the ones that took two or three weeks, were moved by boat - there was no tracking back then, and the tracking is the only way I knew about that parcel from last year).

    maybe if you're ordering from overseas stores like BBTS or showz. other than that i'm not too sure. though it may be why my TFP starscream i bought off of ebay hasn't arrived

    Economy normally is by air, for it to go by sea it’s normally a large company specifically collecting many orders to one place, putting them on a pallet together and sending them by sea, if you’ve payed more than about $30 it’s probably air (with private sellers)

    Kmart Altona Gate (VIC) today has Velocitron deluxe wave 2. Not sure of case assortment but sighted Crasher, Shadowstripper & Burn Out.

    It appears a restock of Cosmos from w1 is behind us.

    Actually saw these Smash Changers Optimus Primes last week in Target, Morayfield, but I didn't realise they were new. Seems expensive to my mind but I guess things for younger kids probably have even more standards they have to conform to.

    Will check KMart tomorrow to confirm Velocitron wave 2 with photos.

    Negative on Velocitron wave 2 at Morayfield. There's barely any wave 1 left on the shelf, either, so it isn't really like they're waiting for existing stock to clear - though Bakugan and those Marvel "Monster Hunter" things are seriously encroaching on the already tiny Transformers section there.
