Thanks all!
Sorry bro,
NYC like all heavily populated areas is very well picked clean. Midtown Comics has some stuff but is very over priced. Forbidden Planet is a fun place to check out but isn't what it was before the move. There are some great little vintage shops in the east village but they cater largely to vintage toys. There are some comic shops in Brooklyn on 5th Ave that have some toys and really nice family owned toy store above Neirgaard Pharmacy on 5th that carries some really cool toys for a small spot and I love the Mom and Pop feel (they even have some Hot Toys in stock) but that's about all I can tell you. The outer boroughs will offer you more in the way of action figures as trendy Manhattan kids don't really play with figures. Don't waste your time in Manhattan pharmacies either, they rarely carry anything unless a movie is out and then it's never even a full case. If you're staying in Manhattan sadly TS TRU is the best you'll do. I can't stand the tourist trap area myself but that flagship TRU really does get the most, best , newest figures.
