It probably won't assuage OP's fears, but I don't recall ever being asked by NRT immigration for any kind of onward travel documention. Just my faulty memory? At SYD check-in, if the agent cares, s/he will probably be satisfied by pulling up the OP's ex-NRT booking and seeing that it's ticketed.
This is what I would be doing - knocking up an e-ticket receipt (using the real actual paper-ticket number) and presenting this. As mentioned, the QF check-in droid at SYD will be able to see that the itin is ticketted, and the NRT immigration droids won't be any the wiser.
Why won't your TA courier you the tickets? You are paying them for the service, remember, and they need to provide it. (I used to work as a retail travel consultant, and know what should be happening here). Make them work for the money you are paying them.
