“Behold, Galvatron!” To our surprise, a tweet by Transformers Fans AUS confirms that the new Transformers Kingdom Wave 3 Leader Class Galvatron has just been found in Australia.
The completely new Leader class mold of the evil Decepticon leader was spotted at Toyworld in Rosebud, Victoria. It was priced $95.00 AUD ($73.43 approximately). An unexpected first world sighting, considering Galvatron is officially scheduled for release by September this year.
Happy hunting!

Nah, that makes it better. Now somebody in Australia can buy Galvatron, arrange a meet-up with somebody who wants to see it in person, and stand at the edge of the Australian border going “Neener neener neener!”.

Interesting.
It isn't listed on Toyworld's web site, and that price is a few dollars off the listed prices for Megatron and Magnus ($99.99).

Correction: I thought you said it’s been forever since there was reveals. I realize I am stupid, and am making the correction. Still haven’t found deluxe or core wave 2, though.

Did someone actually buy this or just snap a photo of it on the shelf? I'd love to see the wave 3 card included!!!

Our borders are closed. No really.

This is not new in Australia… when new stock arrives into the country, fresh from the shipping container, it sometimes gets sent out to a store before it is allowed to (if it has an global embargo date)… and for some reason Toyworld seems to be the one that ends up getting most of these "leaked" toys, and then we don't see more anywhere here until they are officially allowed to be released to retailers months later.
There must be something wrong with Hasbro Australia's inventory system, that accidentally releases stock to Toyworld as soon as it arrives, instead of when it is allowed to be sent out to retailers… and then there is a mad scramble to chase up the stores that got the stock, to remove any that hasn't already been sold.
Most times it is Movie gimmick toys, but when it is a highly sought after toy like this one, a small number of very lucky people get their hands on one before they are removed from sale… for a bit of online fame, or ebay fortune.

Nope. They should be about a quarter inch higher.

I see underarm detail in-between the shoulder and chest.

Are the shoulders fixed? Maybe it's the angle of the photo, but they look fixed.

How is this even possible??

Great for you as they are now "dead"?link. I switch via a variety of sources. Sometimes Amazon is early sometimes late sometimes, their scheduling is all over the place. This guy is my backup if amazon or amiami or RK fails(I'm less on RK now given those lockdowns in HK) or some JP origin mecha is so waaaaaay out of reach. We are like all in the same boat as Hb's distribution is all in the crud pits.

The Toyworld in Adelaide occasionally gets new stuff, but is also filled with Wave 2 Micro Masters, and Wave 1 & 2 Battle Masters.

I was able to pre-order a few Wave 2 SS86 figures via Amazon back on 4/11 courtesy of this link: Links to Add the Rest of 2021 Transformers Figures to Amazon Wishlist and Preorder

I queried one of my alternate suppliersView attachment 29074502
Me: Just a question as I might have missed it (poor eye sight) but has Studio Series 86 Wreck-Gar, Slag and Daniel, Gnaw and Sweeps. Kingdom Pipes and Slammer been offered by your supplier already?K: No official offer yet from our supplier, most likely pre-order will be posted after official listing by takara/hasbro
So everyone is on the same boat.
