a little late but i just watched the documentary on Tower Records ("all things must pass" - directed by colin hanks).
it reminded me about them having exclusive minimates. anyone have a list of which ones were their exclusives?
also curious to hunt down the promotional ones they had. i don't recall a tower in houston but i remember going to the one in austin, LA, and NY though and just thinking it was beautiful. i didn't know the history though. yeah, the prices were nuts but when it came to selection and imports they were pretty darn the best
