[ NEWS ]
 
Although the TAAU message board is an excellent source for news and events, we wanted to do more, and so in the tradition of all the big US-based news sites out there, we have assembled a team of reporters to constantly update this section each and every day for you. As there are already a number of excellent international news sites out there, we have decided to dedicate this section to Australian-specific information only, all of which we receive direct from our contacts at Hasbro, Madman, Atari and, of course, the hundreds of TAAU members out there who visit the site each and every day to report their findings, so if you want to keep up-to-date with local news and events, this is the place to be!

MP-02 ULTRA MAGNUS RELEASED IN AUSTRALIAN TARGET STORES

A few months, back, TAAU broke the world exclusive news that Takara's second "Masterpiece" figure, Ultra Magnus, would be released domestically by Hasbro AU through Target stores nationwide.

Now, thanks to board member The_Kid_In_The_Helmet, we can be the first in the world to tell you the long-promised release date has arrived! The Kid tells us he found four MP-02 figures, resplendent in their original Japanese packaging, at Target in Chirnside Park. The toys were retailing for $149.99 each, with the upcoming Target sale promising a nice price to come.

So while you're hunting for Cybertron goodness, keep your eyes peeled for G1's legendary Autobot City Commander as well - he's a stunning counterpart to MP-01 Optimus Prime, not to mention a great addition to a collection of Binaltechs or Alternators.
