Ermahgerd! Power Discs in Australia.

EB Games is the US's Gamestop identity in Australia and this are the main place to get your games and consoles in Australia now that the UK based Game went bust here.
I have my pre-order with EB and I was told today that there has been a pre-order bonus added and it is;

"The pre-order bonus will be four power disks that will be exclusive to EB and only available at launch. There are images here of Lilo & Stitch and Donald Duck but I can’t make out the others"

After hearing this I called the Customer Service to get a confirmation and it seems as though Australia will not have the Power Disk Packs at launch at all and what you will be getting is two Power Disc Packs with your pre-order. This is apparently a special bonus only because there won’t be any other way to get Power Discs in Australia. I am not prepared to take this as gospel as she didn’t sound like she knew exactly and without a doubt that this was the case when I repeated my interpretation back to her.

Either way its bad news as version one of the situation is that there will be eight discs available to EB Games only at launch and you will randomly get four of them for pre-ordering. Or in version two you will receive two random Power Disc Packs as there will be no other way to get Power Discs when Infinity is released.

She also said that the website should be updated in the news few days and let’s hope that the information will be more concise.

hmmm, they aren't going to not make available a key feature of the product ... i wouldn't be stressing

Hope NZ gets a Pre-Order Bonus and gets the Packs, nothing is on there websites about the packs yet.

A Donald Duck power disc? Yay! I would love to see what they look like if you have pictures. Maybe in a few days on the eb games website, they'll be up.

I am sure power disks will be sold in blind packs like in every other country.

I doubt they are region locked anyways, so there would be ways around this

Woah! Finally some news for Australia.
If the site has any news later, I'll update the Australian figure topic.

Was the DD power disc hexagonal or circle?

She didn't say and I didn't think to ask.
Although she did say the same images will be on the website with the promotion.
I just checked the website and it still isn't updated.

Now I am confused.
They just listed this for the pre-order exclusive.
