Discreet? I wear Transformers apparel and have a Transformer toy on me all the time! Transfan and proud!
B.A.T.: given your regional location, I can completely understand the advantage of online shopping for you.I used to live in a regional part of Japan -- but thankfully public transport even in rural areas there are still very good, and it was relatively easy, and while the place I stayed in didn't have department stores, there were nearby ones that did (including one near where I had a part time job, so I'd often swing by their toy section after work
)
Most of my online shopping experiences have been positive, but I'll still always prefer store shopping. It's like having a phone call with an automated interactive voice response system... it can still work really effectively, but I'll still always prefer speaking to a human being than being served by a machine. <--- just my personal preference.

And while I buy much of my TF clothing in public at a place like Jay Jays, lets just say the wife's valentines day gift apparel was definetly ordered on the net 
I've attempted to preorder the toy from them twice now, and both say "cacelled by Admin." At first I thought maybe it was something I'd inadvertently clicked on, but this time I know I haven't changed anything. The hell?!? When I click on "My Orders," it has nothing at the bottom, and when I click on "cancelled" it shows the two MP Ultra Magnus orders that are now cancelled. Screw this, I'm using HLJ. They may be a bit dearer, but their preorder price is still below RRP and they've always been reliable for me.
