Thanks to 2005 Boards member Vairn, we can report our first sighting of Transformers Authentics figures at Australian retail.
Transformers 5-inch Authentics Bumblebee, Starscream, Megatron and Optimus Prime were spotted at the supermarket chain Woolworths. The figures are sold for AU $10, which is about US $7.7, a very affordable price.
Happy hunting for all Australian fans! Keep reporting your sightings around the world at the 2005 Boards!

I know. If I can walk down to my local Woolworths with only $40 and walk away with an Optimus, Megatron, Bumblebee and Starscream, all with interesting enough designs and fairly decent articulation, then I'm certainly not going to complain. I don't see what people's problem is with these figures.

ESPECIALLY with Megatron and Starscream, Them being rather well articulated.

Remember all the panic when they first got announced? $7.50 isn\'t a bad price at all for these little guys.

Saw some of these at Toyworld last week. Would have reported it if I’d known they hadn’t been spotted yet. When I say “some”, what I mean is about 300 Optimus Primes and nothing else.

Title edited with a more accurate title. Thanks for your report.

Interesting, I hope these make it to New Zealand too. If they're at Woolworths, that might mean we'll get them at Countdown over here (owned by Woolworths Australia). I'll keep an eye out for sure.
Nevermore
No. That's how these are released all around the world.
