I'm sure there are. Do a search online. I actually found Kokomo Toys on craigslist.
The kicker is finding one close to you. I got lucky there. I think Kokomo Toys has a website they sell from now so if you are not close, you can always order.

Kokomo toys are great people to shop from Ebay. There website leaves a lot to be desired.

Craigslist is a good choice. I've also found a few via Facebook as well. In fact I found a really good brick & mortar store via Facebook that was a vintage toy paradise. Sometimes going to a flea market or antique store can bring a few leads. That's how I've found the places I go to for vintage Joe items.

I doubt you will find such an awesome place...I wish there were more of them or at least they could franchise themselves out ...I think the next best thing to a place like this would be Epic Steven D's place (i heard he has a massive virtual collection)/Devonaires place or a TRU/Children's Palace circa 1989....you will not find a more awesome place to see so much joe...and with some of it for sale lol..

There is a shop in Chicago called Quake and another shop in KY called TOY CRAZY.

My version of Kokomo toys here in Des Moines Ia is Jays CD and Hobby. He sells all sorts of vintage toys with huge selections of Star Wars, Transformers and Joe! He sells video games, DVDs, CDs and a lot more!
A few years ago I pressured him into selling comics and he's now one of the biggest comic retailers in the state! I can't say enough good things about Jay and his shop!

There's only one Kokomo, and it's somewhere in the middle of the US tucked behind a cornfield and a barn...and as much as I would love to get there, it might as well be on the moon. They really need to open up a Washington, D.C. store.
