REALLY!? Wow... that's taking it a bit far to push up after-market value! :p

Big-W Belmont had a heap of PRiD Deluxes out...
8+ Knockouts
8+ Hot Shots
4+ Arcees
2 Ratchets
2 Bees

And no surprise... NO VEHICONS. Actually, it's a bit strange to me... all the others except Bumblebee are Wave 2 & 3, but there's no other Wave 1 except Bee. There were also DOTM deluxes at $10, but only Nitrobee and Mudflap that I saw.

Toyworld Success has TF Rescue Bots Energize Wave 1 figures. I picked up Bumblebee & Graham Burns though I can confirm they also had Chase, Heatwave and OP.

They were $10.99 each, though with the current Toyworld promotion you can get anywhere from 25 - 50% off them.

Is sad, I was only there last week or so that means it was fairly recent.

Huh, I walk past there pretty regularly and didn't notice a change. From their Facebook pages, it looks like it was towards the end of June.

Empire changed hands on the 24th June...

I've known Kristine the owner since she opened the business, its been owned by the same person for 15 years, unlike a certain comic store which seems to change owners every 5 year or so.

I'm thinking of purchasing 4 or 5 TFPrime takara GO Smokescreen to reduce shipping cost. Before I do is anyone interested in one? Happy to meet up with you for exchange.

Believe me when I say that Christine needed an out, Empire was for sale for quite some time. Scooby Drew will definitely be taking good care of the shop. In fact he keeps asking me what transformers he should get in, the problem is that I have no idea what will actually sell >.<

We know what won't tho ;)

And I'm fairly sure that QC will be in the same hands for quite some time now. If you want to talk history I can talk history ;)
