Man you guys don't know how good you've got it. This is what happens in the UK
They get a new wave in once in a blue moon, I lap them all up as soon as they come in. They then sit there on the shelf for ages, I quite often see kids there wanting some of the stuff but their parents go, no not today and the kid gets pissed off. I think... JUST BUY IT SO THEY CAN RE-STOCK!
I go to TRU (yes we have it here too) They've got some really early wave stuff, and shitloads of lesser known characters, like the Wrecker, Iron Patriot etc. Honestly, we don't have as many comic readers over here, and parents tend not to buy them for their kids either.
THEY SENT BACK the Iron Man waves that weren't selling... I found a few gems amongst them before that weren't just another iron man armours. I look around and they are literally just peg warmers!
THEY ONLY SELL SPIDER-MAN. Yes, just spidey himself in all his various costumes he never has. I got lucky and found only ONE SS venom and bought it. Lizard and Scorpion were a rarity that my girlfriend managed to find me.
I get ripped off on shipping costs from ebay. I've bought 3 figures off of the internet that are hard to find over here and shipping is whacked up too high.
You can't buy stuff from amazon.com - They list waaaaay more on there than the UK site....
Anyway, ranting aside my collection is roughly where I want it. I need a few more figures to complete it but I think I'm near the "End". I'm going on a hunt on Thursday in a totally different county of england where I have found some gems before! I'll report back then.
Man that feels good :P
