On a side-note to your side-note...In case you didn't know, Jimmy McMillan was sort of NYC's Jim Kelly in the 70's. My friend and I ran into him in the village one Sunday and I yelled to him that the rent was too damn high....he smiled and gave us the solidarity/pride fist lol At the ripe old age of 70, dude is still diesel! The meeting, prompted me to read up on him to a deeper degree than I had when he had his colorful run for mayor. To my surprise, he was a pretty big deal back in the day...

About what will end up in TRU's former Times Square locale, without a doubt, some tourist garbage. TRU was the only non-tourist haven left in Times Square...that's over now and I can officially have no reason to visit that part of the city. Additionally, while seeing SW at Union Square, I learned that Forbidden Planet had also moved...but they relocated just a few storefronts down the block.

good info!
and yeah..about a year ago i went down to Forbidden Planet and was like WTF...THEY CLOSED DOWN TOO...!!. only to find it a few stores down but the smaller size did kinda take away from what made that store such an amazing place to visit...

oh and..yeah..i LOVE 6" marvel legends figures...they're awesome!!!

*edit*
