edit: ok, by popular request, i've taken the liberty of annointing this thread the official thread for australians and their figure finds. hopefully we'll be able to keep using it and keep it on the first page. wow, i feel all 'big time' now that we've got our own thread!
just thought i'd let the other aussies out there know that my toyworld has just received a heap of figures- this bodes well for australians in other states, as i live in tasmania and i'm pretty sure that we get our figures about a week after the rest of the country.
they had GAB series (PPV10?)- they had all of them
the had another shipment of RA17- all of them except london
they'd gotten another shipment of CS7
and they had gotten in RA18, but most of them were bought before they even made it to the shelves. they did have a lot of carlitos, but no eddie's or hbks.

Well most of it is gone now, lol i saw a bunch of little kids jumping around with their SAR's and one dude picked up a RA 18 EG and looked around to see if anyone else was trying to take it, then he just sped off with it lolz, in ways i wish they had AD 16 instead i want MNM.

hi, just thought i'd add that my local toyworld received the CS9's this week.
God i hate toyworld- most of the figures were sold before they even made it to the shelf... they have a book of names that they ring when the figures come in. a book that i've added my name to 3 times- and they've never rung me!!!
so they didn't have the LOD figures, but they did have long tie paul bearer and papa shango. they actually weren't as impressive as i'd thought/hoped they'd be, so i didn't bother...

They actually sprayed on some red dots? o.o

They actually sprayed on some red dots? o.o Can somebody give me a heads up if they find any RA18 HBK's or Carlitos that's close to Geelong? i'd firstly check ur toyworld- u probably wont find hbk- i never saw it in my shop... but my shop has 4 carlitos, 2 heidenreichs, and thats it... i think everyone got the RA15 carlito. anyway, i don't know if they'd do it, but u could ask if they could get one in from another shop- perhaps launceston! i've gotten one sent up from hobart before, but never interstate. i dunno, might be worth a look. also, another sighting- my local kmart, notorious for taking AGES to get figures in, has just gotten in some CS8's. this is the most furious i've ever been looking for figures. they had 20% off all figures, and the only ones i really wanted were both the hogans and vader. they only had nwo hogan- a kid had it in his hand when i was there, was whinging about how hogan wheres yellow and red- whys he in black? so i'm thinking 'good, put it down then.' and the little bastard decided to take it anyway! i actually stalked him and his mum to the checkout, to make sure he took it, and he did. with the vader- i'm a MOC collector, and someone had had a go at the box really badly- it was in shocking nick. so i couldnt/didnt get that either! |
