It is interesting.
As with Skylanders, Disney have said they are aiming for a uniform release schedule to stop people profiteering on eBay.
Activision said the same thing when Giants was released - and by December, the USA were already one wave ahead of the rest of the world.
I hope (against hope) that at least TRU, GameStop/EB Games can synchronize their release schedule (especially in regards to exclusive product - discs and variant characters). I understand why movies (for example) have location specific release dates... I can't work out how the same could possibly apply for gaming peripherals!

Are the exclusive TRU power discs coming here at all?

Yes, They are at EB Games for preorders only.

I will be going down the Mountain tomorrow and I will go and see what TRU has to offer.

@Adscan power discs are $5.84 at Big W. They seem to be cheapest for everything except the starter pack (TRU beat them by one cent) though the triple pack prices aren't on their site yet. EB Games price match so the wise thing to do is get the pre order bonus from them and price match figures with Big W(unless you don't care about the discs, in which case pre order from Target for the free Mike).

I've just emailed TRU Australia to see if Crystal Lightning will be released here (and, indeed, future variants).
I'll be there at 8.00 am on the 22nd anyway (as EB doesn't open until 9.00).
Will post any response.

^ Thanks for that. They don't have it on their site yet which is beginning to make me worry(but then, they may keep it a bit more "secret" and not bother putting it there).

Anyway, besides accessories, I just updated the OP. I'm sorry it took so long but you know, I'm taking a break, so cut some slack. :P I also added a section for the cheapest starters/singles/triples/play sets/power discs. If you have anything else you've found, please post about it so that I can update the OP later.

Now, the problem is, Target and K-Mart have not updated their site with things that aren't the starter pack. I didn't bother updating those, since I don't follow junk mail, so I'm just leaving them as TBA until they add more information. Big W still have yet to add Triple Packs...

I also removed links as those were just a chore to add for every single place and every single thing and it isn't hard to search an individual site for them yourself.

Accessories will probably be added tomorrow.

Oooooh I'm soooooooo excited!
Excited, excited, excited!!!
EBGames have accessories on sale, so I now have the Infinity Base Protector, the Power Disc Capsule and the Power Disc Folder!!!! All I need now is the game, some discs to put in my holders and the Infinity Base to be protected and all will be well !!!

I'm actually quite surprised how big the discs and the base are going to be... they are a lot bigger than they look on all of the videos I've seen.

Only one week to go... This time next week, I will be playing the game!!!!
