I believe you will be right. The TRU sale will be over by the time these hit.
It will be nice to see something new and non movie related for a change. I like this idea of Pursuit of Cobra. New version of older weapons (HISS and figures we know changed up a bit (Alley Viper) and figures kinda like the movie but different enough to not be from it totally (Cobra Commander). The stuff seems very apocalyptic which typically isn't my style, but I'm liking this. I'm thinking pre-order is the way to go from here on in. That way I can be assured I'll get what I want, and if I find extra in my leisure, all the better. The stuff I don't want from pre-orders can just be trade fodder or make its way on ebay after a spell. SDCC Slaughters are on my list next then I can relax a bit.

Target had a 2nd wave of markdowns. Someone snagged the Cobra Hummer I was waiting for the markdown to pick up. No worries, 2 HISS Tanks should be inbound by first part of the week. TRU free shipping joy

Any of you New Yorkers know of a good comic shop in Manhattan that I could check out. I'll be there over the Labor Day weekend, and I will be staying in Manhattan doing the tourist thing. Besides going to the TRU and FAO Schwartz with my daughter, I was wondering if there any good comic shops that I could find anime, toys, and other such things? Is there any good Japanese bookstores in the immeadiate area as well? Once last thing, where's the best pizza place in Manhattan? Thanks in advance and happy hunting for those POC figures.

THE MASTER LIST of comic book stores & trading card stores in New York USA Scroll down to NYC:Manhattan. It's been a while, but I thought Midtown Comics was pretty big. Same with Forbidden Planet. The site is nice because it provides addresses and links to store websites. As an upstater, I haven't been comic shopping in NYC lately so I can't really rate any stores. |

i say the one on 14th st. has a ton of stuff. forbidden planet. the prices could be a little cheaper, kinda like online prices i guess. jim hanley universe by the empire state building is not bad either. they also have joes etc but at a huge markup. image anime closer to the madison square garden is good for japanese stuff.

Midtown comics on 7th and West 40th -- 1 floor for comics and 1 floor for toys. (midtowncomics.com) Near Times Square
Imageanime on West 30th btw 7th and 8th ave -- small store, but solely devoted to Japanese toys/manga/music/movies (imageanime.com) Near Penn Station Then in the Lower East Side is Toy Tokyo (2nd ave between 5th and 6th st) which is a tiny store but packed with Japanese toys. (ToyTokyo) Have fun in NYC!! Quote:
