Not particularly rare, just pricey.

It's out in Target stores only this side of the Tasman thus far at about A$150 (on special now for A$130). Seems to be quite a few in each Target, from what I've heard.

Might be worth waiting to see when it comes in at one of your local stores.

Need reliable Aus/NZ info more often? The these are the boards for you!

They Are Among Us (TAAU) - Aussie site with the highest traffic of any local board I've seen. Good for general info.

Ozformers - Less traffic, but has a Kiwi member who can keep you well informed of specific TF goings-on over the Tasman.

Hope it helps!

There's a "forums" tab about 1 cm from the top of the page, 6th tab from the left. Just link to the board coz the main page doesn't usually have anything good.

Highly unlikely on both counts.

In regards to Megatron, the only way that would ever really happen would be if it were his War Within form. His G1 mode is both in violation of US toy laws, and highly unplausible.

I bought a masterpiece prime from e-bay, waiting for it to arrive.

I wouldn't have settled with a 20th anniversary one. BTW, I've never seen him in stores in greece.

I want to see more Decepticons in the Alternators line. O. Prime [masterpiece or 20th, whichever] is nearly identical to these toys [detail, size, collector's value], so this means the Autobots have a leader, but all the decepticons have is Dead End. I'd like to see more.

This is going to be, without doubt, the most useful post in this thread for you Optimus-PeoN:


I bought mine at Farmers on Lambton Quay a couple of months back for about $120 when they had a sale on toys. He's kinda hard to find, but Farmers definately have stocked him at multiple locations (Lambton Quay, Cuba Mall and Upper Hutt to name a few), try and order one through them if they haven't got any in stock locally. He now takes pride of place on my computer desk as I sit here in Kelburn.
