Melbourne Shops - Potential TF Stockists

[Bidoofdude]

Across the road from Big W in the CBD (the block with Mind Games on it), the old (phone, I believe?) store has moved out and what's probably the new owners were moving their stuff in. There were a bunch of boxes labelled toys, like when you receive a case box. There was a case of Power Rangers, but they could possibly have TF figures, if they are a toy/collectible store.

OOHH, Interesting, may have to check it out soon

I wouldn't be surprised if it was one of those pop-up shops peddling all the left over Funtastic stock like that one that was near Myers or the big sale that was at the exhibition center around the middle of the month. By all means check it out, could be worth a look, but don't be surprised if it's a load of Power Rangers, Ben 10 and Leapfrog stuff

I'm coming down to Melbourne in a few days. Might have a look at that store.

I think I know where you're talkin' about. I will check it out today. My wife works around the area.

Toy's 'n' stuff at Eaglemont station has closed. Went by yesterday while doing some hunting and all shut down. I didn't see a forwarding address & didn't ask the local shops where they went. Most of there stuff was pricey and the guy was not the best to deal with but his sister was. Not many of these stores left now.

That's sad to hear. It was only a matter of time though - I remember dropping by that store a few years ago and there wasn't a soul in sight (besides the sister) anywhere. Very quiet area.

Online stores seem to be the way to go for small businesses like that these days

Can't say I'm sorry to see it gone.
They used to sell KO's as the deal thing all the time.

Exactly.... I was going to say good riddance to bad rubbish...

His reasoning was "its impossible to make these toys, so they have to come from the factory, so they are all legitimate!!!"

But on the other side of the coin.... The not-daughters named after a star trek character.... And that's the only place I've got the 20 year old toy for her

I went to visit TRU Fountain Gate on the weekend and because this is a working class suburb it came as no surprise that they had no MPs stocked. I asked one of the staff to confirm.
