    While I despise scalpers, the best way to stop them is for nobody to buy from them. Big W will restock, and this toy will appear in other stores, just as Metroplex eventually did. Big W may have been the first chain to get this toy, but they won't be the last.

    I hope so, although looking at how scattered the previous Combiner Wars releases were (Wave 1-3) I am not holding my breath. Also Metroplex is not a good comparison. A better one will be Omega Supreme Energon released during BigW Toy sale about two years ago. I never seen it anywhere else after.

    I hope that happens with this guy, leaving him out of pocket almost $1400 or so.

    I've got no trouble with people importing figures not released here, and adding maybe 10-20% to cover their costs, but 75% markup is just rude.

    he won't be out of pocket though -He'll have the receipts and if they don't sell just take them back for a refund.

    I really hope that in a few months time when Devastator is released at other stores he still has 7 left on eBay.
