Hmm, Outpost Gamecenter in Antwerp used to have those. Don't think the Import game store at the Keyserlei is around anymore, they used to have quality collectibles.
As to web based, dunno never was into it much. Wanted to ask Inter, but it seems he removed me from his Steam friendlist and haven't seen him around here any more.
If you want to stay local, find import stores... they usually have more of that stuff than regular game stores. If there are still any around.

There aren't too many stores like that around here, I'm afraid, and if there were, I think they'd ask too much for such stuff .
I've been looking online for affordable collector editions - I used to be able to buy several of them very cheaply (like Watch Dogs CE) but there's only a few at a decent price and none of the statues appeal to me. The ones that do appeal, are sold at ridiculous prices by scalpers.
Also, it amazes me how many statues are nowhere near as cool as they could have made them. Take the Deus Ex one - I think most people would want Jenson in his trade-mark coat looking bad ass but no, they put him in his combat suit mid-activation of his shield. It looks like he has a spiky diaper on ffs.

EDIT: it seems I found a good store:

Lots of interesting ones for not too much money.

@Bob Barnsen
Sometimes there are discounts on the site so maybe around Christmas the book might go on sale.
It's not my picture but yes my first Amiga was an A500 with the Batman Pack that I got when I was a little kid

I also played alot of F-29 Retaliator and Knights of the Sky but Interceptor as you mention was probably my most played flight sim

I think there was talk about Steve Purcell in the Kickstarter discussions when early talks about the box design came up.
I did not follow up on it so not sure if he was ever contacted but I agree his artwork is great!

Christmas came a bit early this year
This Amiga 1200 was made in 1995 and put in storage for over 20 years in it’s original box!
It has not been powered up since but the condition looked so good that I took the gamble and bought it as a stock A1200.
After setting it up on my desk, it was time to test if this thing actually worked after all those years.
The power came on and lights too but I got worried for a bit since the boot screen did not show up.
However that was only because it was booting into an internal HD (seller did not mention a HD) containing stuff from the Magic Pack.
I then discover this "stock" Amiga also has a 4MB ram expansion installed!
I only tried a few games so far like Jungle Strike and Lemmings 2 but everything seems to be running nicely

Yeah it's so lucky to find one these days in this good condition
@Bob Barnsen: The A1200 was quite upgradable so did you ever buy any hardware upgrades for yours?
I know Motorola processors like the 020 in the A1200 get a big speed boost just by adding fast ram so I'm glad mine came with some already installed.
