Dang ,sorry I can't think of any since they changed Times Square around a few years back. But I can recommend you stop at Peter Lugers in Brooklyn for a Mighty Fine steak,

Ditto FAO Schwartz. But for actually buying stuff, Midtown Comics is worth a visit. Mostly new stuff, but if you like Sideshow Joes and that sort of thing, it might be good. Same with Forbidden Planet, which is on Broadway... more towards downtown (nearby is that "Chocolate by the Bald Man" restaurant, which is also worth a visit!). My favourite toy store there is Toy Tokyo, which is mostly newer Japanese and HK-produced stuff. Awesome though, and you might find the odd GI Joe even. I bought a MIBaggie Ninja Viper there for a good price. There was a comic/toy store sort of nearby... but I don't remember the name or the street. It was more the type of place you'd get vintage stuff, though. Might be what you're looking for. Sorry I can't remember more than that but I think I just found it by asking here myself, and/or looking on Google Maps... (checking)... St. Mark's Comics, that's it. Mind you, that was a couple years ago that I was last there.
