EllisModels.com to Stop Selling Transformers Online

Seibertron member Dave Ellis of EllisModels.com has posted some bad news for UK Tranfans who shop online and/or like to buy imported Transformers from Japan at his store. He writes:

After three years of serving the Transformers community with Japanese, US and UK Transformer toys we have taken the decision to discontinue Transformers product through this website. After much deliberation the business is going to take a different direction which will take all of my time and effort over the next twelve months (the website will remain operational but will not feature any Transformers product). Our retail store will continue to stock Transformers product but in significantly smaller quantities and mainly only Hasbro UK sourced items.

Our last shipment of imported toys from Japan is imminent and it includes all of the Galaxy Force Primus and THS-02 toys that were short from the initial batch. Preorder invoices will be sent out for these when they arrive with us as normal. Additionally, all current stock remaining on the site is being offered at a discount price until cleared.

Finally (but most importantly), I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of the Ellis Models customers over the past three years, everyone who has helped with the running of the online store and the online Transformers community for their continued support thoughout. Thank you all. 'Til All Are One....

Over the last couple of years I have been a regular customer both online and at Dave's 'bricks and mortar' shop as well as meeting him at the last two Auto Assemby Conventions. I have come to know him quite well and I could not have asked for better service or a nicer guy to do business with. I am sure you'll all join me in wishing Dave all the best in the future, whatever direction he plans to take his business in.
