Other chains I'd be down with carrying NECA would be Target or Best Buy, they have each sold single items from NECA lately so I could see that being used as a foot in the door for more.

Gamestop/ThinkGeek has been carrying more and more toys and collectibles as of late...they had become the best place around me to get new Marvel Legends stuff, even before TRU went to shit. This is probably to help cushion themselves from the slow but sure death of physical gaming media, and if they're going that route I think carrying NECA stuff would be a perfect fit for them.

Target would be great as well, as they've also been carrying more and more stuff for collectors recently.

Barnes and Noble has also been greatly upping their toy/collectible inventory as of late. Who knows?
