figs in the uk?

[banting]

hey,

this is my first time posting on this board.

I'm from the uk (birmingham, england) and i'd love if anyone could suggest or tell me what shops sell GI Joes, bootlegs and other figures as i think some of the figures on this boards are really awsome.

thanks

i'll give karma if you like

For bootlegs, try Poundland, or sometimes shops that sell cheap stuff like plastic storage boxes and other random things also sell them.

Really the best places to find older figures are either carboot sales or charity shops, that is where I got most of my hasbros from and they make up a large part of my collection.

what about GI Joes?

pound land, esk warehouse or your local high street pound shop usually have a selection of bootleg figures, some are awful, some are ok especially ones with moulds taken from a wrestling figure line.

...ive found charity shops dont stock figures like they used to, i remember seeing thundercats m.a.s.k and wwf hasbros a few years ago, but now its all power rangers and turtles.

car boot sales are the place to go, especially mammoth car boot in hailsham in the summer with hundreds of stalls you can find loads of older figures.
