I've been waiting for this. Why won't Hasbro release this everywhere?

Australians. Australians care about what’s coming out in their area.

I also care, though I’m not an Australian, it means they’ll be heading my way before long.

I dont know if this is old news or not but I have also spotted Acid Storm at Big W in the City (Melbourne) and Galvatron at Big W at Southland which I didnt get. I got Acid Storm for $23.99. You can find Tankor, Sunstreaker and Prowl pretty much everywhere around K Mart and also Onslaught Powerglide and Silverbolt are everywhere too.

K Mart is having a sale with 20% off transformers until the 24th. I'd keep look at the Big W stores as I have noticed that they have the best stuff.

Animated Ultra Magnus has been in Myer stores for about 3 weeks now, the other Universe figures (including Galvatron and Acid Storm) have been spotted for a similar amount of time, and the Wave 3 Animated figures have been spotted in various TRU stores for a few weeks as well, but thanks for the tip off's Primatives.
