That's up to them, and they're running a real risk in doing so. Whether or not they end up getting into any trouble for it... is their issue. They could be raided tomorrow. In which case, the proprietor will be in the poo

I don't want to be a wet blanket, but keep in mind that at present there is no legal avenue for owning Megatron toys in Victoria. Which sucks, but that's beyond our control.

If you plan to purchase Megatron/Masterpiece Megatron, that's your decision. Personally, I _do_ own these toys and have a permit to do so (which can be obtained in NSW). I'd love to see Victorians be able to own them legally as well, but the powers that be down there haven't been very responsive to our efforts to establish a legal avenue for ownership.

We _know_ that Firearms NSW do read this board from time to time and there's no reason why their Victorian counterparts couldn't do the same. I'd recommend against talking about it publicly, at least until the Victorian government establishes a permit system or something similar.

For your reference:

Board rules:
15 - Do not advertise, promote or advertise any illegal activity. Ownership of Megatron (and Browning) toys is in this category.... This rule is for your own protection, as well as for other members.
