As a kid here in Cleveland, there was a Best Products right across the street from my grade school that I'd get to go to any time I got good grades, or for having to deal with my numerous doctor's visits. They ended up building a Toys R Us right next to it, but there was already a Children's Palace a half mile away that was my favorite store. The store that was closest to my house though was a Gold Circle that I distinctly remember getting a ton of figures from. My cousin and I were looking at all of them in there once and we both hid Airtight figures because we wanted him, but not as much as the other ones we had picked for that trip. The one I hid fell too far behind a shelf, so I ended up poaching his when I went back! I also got my first vehicle there, a Hiss tank. Other favorites were Kiddie City, Zayre's and Silverman's. I never did get many from Kay Bee because they cost about $3.99 there and everywhere else they were $2.79 or $2.99.
