Hey there is a big comic/anime store at the Grapevine Mills Mall in Grapevine TX about 20 mins north of Dallas, they have some good stuff but they are alittle "pricy" because they are in a mall but you can find stuff there that you may never see anywhere else in the area, the other thing is they buy-out alot of comic book shops :wtf and get alot of dated things in, and there for you can find good comic for the cover price - even if the price guides say they are worth alittle more - they says its because they want people to read instead of collect - my kind of place :thumb

double post :lol

 

anyway Im about to move away from austin, and well to be honest Im going to miss it alot, I hope AZ has something to offer my crazy habbits.

 

anyway Austin rocks for stuff...

 

as for houston and PA yeah they acutally stopped carrying alot of tf's for some odd reason, after BW neo they dropped horribly, now the houston store caters to mostly anime junk.

At least where im moving too ill only be a few hours away from super 7 store, and well lets just say ill prob make a trip once a month or everyother month! :thumb

Finding G1's here in San Antonio is a royal pain. That's why I am so grateful for the internet, because my TF collection would be much much smaller without it. Occasionally local comic shops will get one or two in, but it's never many and often their prices are higher than net prices anyway.

One of my clients Bedrock City has a few stores around the Houston area that carry a pretty good variety of vintage, loose, and new transformers. Though the newest ones they have had lately are Armada, but if you cant find it there try daves anime world on westheimer, they have the Takara Reissues without having to spend money on the shipping.

Walmart today had 2 Hounds, one Deadend and a Silverstreak. I left them all because I already have them. They still have one each of Slugslinger, Sharkticon and Redeco Hotshot. They have lots of the new basics and the old ones in new Powerlinx packaging. The Walmart I'm talking about is the one on Highway 6 and 529

On Sunday, TRU on South Lamar and Ben White had 4 of the Optimus Prime/Megatron 2 Paks. As you know TRU is having a buy 2 get one free on all Transformers. Unicrons, Landmines, Tidal Waves and Scorponks are all half off. They also have G1 figures like Tracks, Skids, Hoist, Dirge and Smokescreen. They had a few G1 Grapples, Infernos and Thundercrakers that had some signs of shelf wear.
