    Default Where do you normally buy your Transformers from?

    While I realise some people here may obtain Transformers from different sources, for the purposes of this poll please choose which is your most frequent source.

    hmmm, lets see now for ....

    More latest Tfs of course - local stores, for G1 and older stuff its a mix of Online and the Parra fair, rarely local hobby shop if I find one or two items, not so older stuff (e.g. Unicron trilogy) from co members here ( i guess that could count as online as well) and Parra Fair. Accessories Id say online

    So Id pretty much say Online (legit stores, ebay or co-members selling) would be 50%, Local stores ( including hobby shops) would be 30% and the remaining 20% - at the fair
    Wanted AM partner Vanguard, Myclones Dirge, G1 Victory Leo, e-hobby Dark scream ( the black version), e-hobby Magnificus
    Parts- AM partner Basher-side guns, G1 Actionmaster Elite Windmill's blades[I][B]

    I went for 'online', 'cos these days it's mostly just from here with the occasional sale item from a store.

    Yeah, I'm an online shopper too I find it to be easier than driving all over the place. Also, it's pretty much the only way of purchasing G1 toys unless your lucky enough to find some at a market / fair / garage sale (but even then the condition is usually below what I would accept).

    TR Astrotrain, Skullsmasher, & Hardhead

    I usually buy from local stores but lately have been buying more from online sources.
    Choice is i'd rather buy from stores. i like the process of see it online, hit the stores, get frustrated cause i can't find it, find it, buy it, love it. It's all about the hunt
