Where do you mostly buy your Modern era figs?

I get mine from retail mostly.

Retail exclusively, may start buying online to fill in the needs.

Retail, mainly Target and TRU. Every once and a while I will order a case from E Earth.

Haha, I respond, and now I have the urge to go online to get an Eel and some early wave stuff. Grrrrr, I hate breaks in the product waves!

In this order:

1. local and area comic and collectible shops
2. bix box retailers
3. online

I get some stuff at retail (various Wal-Marts, K-Marts, and Krogers) - but I don't go to any of those places very often (and even if I did, I probably wouldn't ever score much from 'em), so I order most of my figures from online retailers.

Try to stick to the retailers, but as recent luck would have it, may have to move to on-line. Finding anything at retail post-christmas is like trying to do dentistry with a sledge hammer. . . effective, but painful as hell.

BBTS, if not for preorder I would be missing several figures. Some of the later waves I never seen in the wild.

China

I have bought a few things online, but I try to limit myself to retail. If I cant find it on a shelf then it was not ment for me to have.
