My manz...you're talking to a VET.. I've been hunting figures longer than some younger collectors have been alive...lol
I've EARNED the title: DarkToyLord.
I've hunted here ..there..near..far..alone..with wifey, with friends, at cons, out of state, along the routes of long road trips.
It was different when stores carried lots of items, and POTENTIAL items.. because I might have always just come across something new or unexpected. When the lines you love have either shitty distribution (Star Wars Black Series i HATE YOU) or no retail presence at all.. it takes the wind out of your sales. I think of the things i COULD have been doing instead of wasting time on fruitless adventures...

SIDE NOTE: i just stopped in a walgreens on my way to work and found Blink and Jubilee.. OF COURSE after i just ordered them from HasbroPulse...lol....figures..
