Everybody loves a good toy store.  Even as an adult I can spend a long time in one, playing with all the cool toys.

Every now and then I'll stumble across a really neat online toy store.
For example, I found this plush Alien Facehugger.   It's life sized and the "fingers" are bendable/posable.  You could stick it on your face and it would cover most of it just like the real thing.


I had been toying with the idea of buying it for some time but never did.  Finally I broke down and purchased it.
I went to Amazon and the cheapest one they had was $24.99 and that didn't include shipping.  Other sellers on Amazon wanted upwards of $30.00 plus shipping for it!

So I decided to look around and found it at a cool online toy store called Statue Toys.

http://www.statuetoys.com/

Not only did they offer it for a cheaper price ($16.99+ $7 shipping) but they've got a huge selection of really cool stuff to choose from.
I must've spent at least an hour looking through all the neat items they have for sale.

How about you?
Know of any cool online toy stores?

If only the Aussie dollar didn't suck at the moment!! Just a few months ago it was up near 96 US cents, which is fantastic!

Currently it's floating around 60, and I'm a sad camper.  Bluesad   Damn economic crisis!

On the other hand, if you're travelling to Australia from the US, you just got a 30% odd discount.  Lucky pricks...

I used to buy the "Movie Maniacs" line from Forbidden Planet, they also have a store in my home town, Manchester, which was full of rare Star Wars toys and really cool comic books.  Smile

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
