Finely! Jetfire is here!
I can't play with him yet, Mum's grabbed him to wrap up, but I did give him a quick check over so he's just fine.
I didn't find a Softimus Prime - I think I found the pricing ticket where they're supposed to be in K-Mart but none there, not even the cardboard tray they'd be in. On the other hand I found a couple of small movieverse figures - Jazz and Ratchet. They were $6 each (less for me with employee discount - K-Mart is owned by Coles) and yes, they transform - I don't see much point in a Transformers toy that can't transform (unless it's Roller). They'll barely reach Jetfire's knee - if that.
I also found a DVD I have been searching for, for nigh on 6 months - Flying High, or as American might know it, Airplane!. Classic spoof movie, it is, absolute classic.
ETA - ETA On Wings!: You know the fun thing about Flying High!? Robert Stack. What's so fun about Robert Stack? He did the voice of Ultra Magnus in the '86 Transformers movie. ~_^
