Where do you buy your figures?

You can list every one of them, if you like. That's what I'm doing!
Note that most stores come from Canada or Southern Ontario

- EB Games. Where my collection began, and LOTS of preowneds I got from there.
- Toys R Us. I uncommonly get figures here. Last one I bought from there was PB Splat last Spring.
- Walmart. Even rarer than TRU. Never bought any this year and last, assuming they still do it.
- Amazon. For figures I cannot find elsewhere, but at a high, but fair price.
- Best Buy. I only got the Wii U SSF console bundle there.
- Buy N Sell City, some store in Toronto and beyond. I bought two good orange-base figures there for $15 as a supply/demand price. (One being S2 Bash)
- Dollarama, Canadian dollar store. I remember buying 3-5 figures from SSA and SSF for $3 and $4 each. They have ones from the first three games there.

Easy, GameStop and ToysRUs! I mostly use GameStop for preowned, older characters while TRU is my main stomping ground for all the new releases. TRU just has the best stock IMO and the sales are constantly good.

Ebay. Everywhere else the shipping is too expensive or has ridiculous taxes, though I might start looking into Amazon. Occasionally the south american equivalent, MercadoLivre.

Mercado Livre, like Bifrost, and that's it. I have some good chances to find something cheap enough and it's the only place without crazy taxes. I mean, I never find what I want on eBay...

Toys R Us, GameStop, Best Buy, Target and, sometimes, Walmart. All of them are close to each other.

Toys R Us for everything, I only go somewhere else if they have exclusives or a better deal than TRU.

Gamestop is my first choice because of the great customer service and personal attention to help me when I'm hunting. If I can't get it there, Toys-are-Us and ebay. ...and sometimes Target, and occasionally a Best Buy or Walmart for an exclusive.

Amazon cause I'm lowkey embarassed to buy toys at my age although I look very young.

I remember when I bought some at ToysRus and the cashier was like....

"Are those for you?"

Me: "uhmm yes"

Cashier "Oh have fun I guess.."

The look she gave me back then lmao

I know this feel. I imagine what the guys from video game stores think about me when I question for Skylanders instead of Call of Duty or FIFA.

Smyths, TRU and GAME. Mostly Smyths because it's closer to me than the other two. I'd say they have the best stock of Skylanders around, as the others are pretty ridiculous. Sometimes Smyths are silly and never get a couple of them, so I simply go to the others when necessary.

GAME because they normally get the new waves before anywhere else.

Smyths for the same reason and they always have a lot in stock.

ASDA because I live within 5 minutes walking distance from one.

If it's a pre-order Amazon for sure because of the Prime benefits. If it's not a pre-order it's usually Gamestop.

I'll buy from anywhere that's got the goods, but Walmart and Target pretty much fell off the list.

Anywhere that has the ones i want, really.

I prefer best buy, because the boxes are always in good condition, and my GCU helps. Gamestop and TRU are close seconds.

If i see something at target/walmart i'll buy it, but i won't rely on those two as main sources for anything.
