Anyone know where I can get Alt Smokescreen and Sideswipe?

Post by Almighty Galvatron »

I'm having trouble getting Alternators Smokescreen and Sideswipe as Toyworld tells me they can't get hold of them at the present. If any posters in NZ could tell me if there are any floating that would be much appreciated.

Otherwise are there places on the web that will ship them to NZ, I don't want to have to resort to being ripped off on Ebay yet. Places in Australia or SE Asia would be most helpful as they will help me avoid ridiculous shipping fees.

Cheers.

Still plenty of both around here. Could probably even ship them to you at a relatively decent price, depending.

Define relatively decent in either NZ or US dollars.

And are the prices @ action HQ in US dollars?

I'd have to check and see.

Yep.

At least, they were when I ordered Meister the other day. That may not always be the case.

Last time I was toys r us they were flooded with them. This was maybe 3 months ago. Can't say what is going on now.

Sadly Toys R Us can't really help me seeing as they don't have a franchise in New Zealand at the present, but I wish they'd hurry up so I had a chance to get hold of some G1 reissues. Will They sell online though? Action HQ only had the binaltech Smokescreen, and i'm not willing to pay for it, I'd rather get the plastic version and save on shipping.

You can buy Toys R Us G1 reissues online through Amazon.com; I'm not sure about alternators.

Things are really, really slow around Newfoundland - All I've seen in stores so far have been Smokescreen and Sideswipe.
Those decepti-creeps.
