both have signs "going out of business". not that it effects anything that much since you didnt ever find much at them, but it seems like the places that sells toys are slowly disappearing.
Game Stop by the grocery store closed once the grocery store moved and most of the others around here really have cut back on the toys.
about the only place left with any variety at all is a Suncoast (thats a bit of a drive) and a TRU.

even most of the comic shops have bit it around here. I think we have one left in the area. wouldnt be surprised though if I drove by and it was now gone. seems like its all slumping for some reason.

We had 6 KBs around here - the last one that remained is on the short list come the new year anyway, so I don't even hold any chance for those to hang around and help the collecting
Gamestops are doing good in the area, and a couple of more have recently opende up, but I don't get to those too much
for the most part, SunCoast is the main place for me with individual figures (know the manager and asst manager, so they always hold them for me) - other than that I just order Spawn online.
As for the other lines - SW is coming to an end for me, as I am not really impressed with the new line that is expected to come out. ML and LOTR is the main pain for me, and hopefully I can keep ahead of the lines with preorders on Amazon, or have help through the generosity of people like 316what when I can beg for extras from his cases.
Otherwise I just hit eBay for everything else - not worth it to me to go hunting for them out of my way anymore. I if see them, I grab them - otherwise I just order [img]smile.gif[/img]
