good thing I gave collecting individual of this a miss. i just hate the local comic shops here, so out of date and so late (if they ever) in restocking. I have to go all the way to the city (Sydney) just to get this though. But that can wait..... money being reserved for something else.Oh if you's guys attending this can post pics please. always a sucker for meet-up pics.

For new comics there's also Phantom Zone in Chatswood, Kings Comics in Pitt Street and Comic Kingdom in Liverpool Street in the city (as well as the one in Liverpool itself). Has anyone else been to 'The Comics Bug' which is near me in the Eastern Suburbs. It's amazing in terms of its stock of boxed old toys (stacks of Masters Of The Universe in particular although they also had a G1 Jetfire and Skystalker last I checked.) But it only has back issues of 20th Century comics and the opening hours are hilarious - closed for three days a week and and then on the days it is open it's for anywhere betweeen two and three hours in the afternoon. Plus there are no prices, so you have to ask how much things are (which can be somewhat varied.)
I've had a standing order at Phantom Zone Parramatta since G1 days - it's good for new comics that I pre-order. I've pre-ordered the TPBs for the IDW Time Wars reprint and Transformers Animated comics... never pre-ordered a TPB before so I'll see how I go with that. In terms of pre-ordered individual issues they've always been good except for that one brief moment during the Dreamwave era when there was a problem with distribution, but that was an issue with Diamond not PZ. Thankfully it was sorted out.
Im referring to Phantom Zone in Parra trunks. Sure its several train stations away from QHbut I consider it still local to say... Sydney which is waaaay out stationssssss from QH
. I'm not a fan of preordering - even back in Phils. Mebbe because back then, Phils comic shops do get restocked about after a week that the new stuff has been out in US. So I never needed to preorder. Plus the fact that there's heaps of branches. Here. it's just hit and miss. Only the booming big shops get to restock as often/updated - mainly in the city. It's not very geek (and I use this term in a positive sense) friendly here

Where is Kings Comics in Parra? is it near the station. I dont drive, so it's all leg power for me... Anybody got the address?
