According to this article -
The Apple 29W USB-C power adapter and USB-C Charge Cable is made of two pieces: a charging cable and an adapter with a removable duckhead.
Here's a picture... http://www.apple.com/shop/product/MJ262LL/A/apple-29w-usb-c-power-adapter?fnode=51
That shows the adapter with the duckhead in place. If you buy the adapter separately, it does NOT come with any cable. The Charge Cable would be an additional purchase, in the event you want a spare power adapter for a MacBook.

If you're in a europlug-using country, it comes with it . If you're in the UK, it comes with a UK plug, etc.
No - not true!
Apple sells whatever duck head is needed in the regions/countries where they would be used.
Why would you think that Apple doesn't sell those?
If you need to have several duck heads, you can purchase this - http://www.apple.com/shop/product/MD837AM/A/apple-world-travel-adapter-kit?fnode=3c

The MacBook comes with the adapter, and the duckhead is included.
Duckheads for some other countries are already going to be almost as bulky as the adapter (bigger pins which don't fold) depending on the country.
I guess you are looking for an additional one for another country?
If you need a duckhead for a different country, you can also buy it while in that country - or just use a standard adapter plug to keep with you as you travel...
The fitted duckhead doesn't work better than adding a generic adapter. Just neater (but not much neater in many countries. )You didn't say which one you need. Here's an EU duckhead for 25 cents (well, plus $5 shipping

Wow, what a great idea. I've been carrying a pile of plug adapters around Europe for years, often leaving them behind in hotels and apartments. This is so much simpler (slaps forehead).
Great! 5 bucks from newegg.com through that link, eh? Or, you can search for one directly from europe, whatever shopping service you use in Aus, just in case Newegg doesn't ship to AU...
