I'm in Bedford and we've got a shop called Close Encounters. They've had last summers comic packs sat in there for months, although they've got a Sentinel and I got the GOTG there not long ago. I've also seen that they have the Future Foundation but I'm not overly fussed on collecting that.
I tend to go down to London to have a look in Forbidden Planet. Last Monday when I went in I saw a ton of comic packs and a lot of single carded figures of fairly recent waves. I was looking for Adam Warlock and Thanos CP though and they didn't have it.
But not far from there is Orbital Comics and they've had the latest wave EVERY TIME I've been in there. Someone mentions it on the forums here, I go there a week or so later and they've got the latest waves in which is cool! Wish I had the money to go there more often because my collection would be a lot bigger!!! I got Thanos and Warlock so I was happy. I saw the Psylocke wave in there, minus Psylocke... I couldn't pluck up the courage to spend too much money on the figures. I tend to get them in small doses.
My local Tesco occasionally surprises me with a wave but once I've bought them the rest of them sit there and peg warm. My friend is the stock control manager and I've asked him what's going on with it and he says that the Tesco Extra stores get the newer stock in and the larger ones...
Then I've done a couple of trades from the US on here, although I have to really want the figure to justify the shipping costs, although their prices are a lot lower so it works out nearly the same as travel expenses and finding and buying the figure... speaking of which, do any of you guys have a Silver Surfer for sale?
