meeting up with us???

yo ice, apologies for replying many days late. I was going over in my head how to work meeting the Melb guys into my schedule.

I'll try to work something out. I'll be at the Australian Open tennis with a group of friends and my wife. I don't actually know how much time I will have in terms of a meet-up and chat sort of gathering between going to the open and seeing Melbourne a little (wife's never been there).

I'm meeting hanprimus to pick up some toys, but i think that it will be a meet and short chat then depart kind of thing.

Any ideas? Also, any recommended comic shops in Melb?

Minotaur on Elizabeth Street is the biggest with a lot of pop culture stuff including directly imported TF toys (they had Bludgeon and the new Ironhide recently). Comics R Us on Bourke Street has a good sized collection but high prices. Classic Comics hidden away off Bourke Street has good prices but low stocks.

Minotaur is freakin awesome. I was down in Melbourne for work the other month and went exploring around the city in my lunch break. Came across Minotaur (had moved since I was there last) and easily spent the better half of the afternoon browsing their vast range. Wish we had a store like that here in Sydney
