jimgb Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Hi, I'm James from Eastern, freezing, very white Canada ! So, I made the mistake of seeing these little freak'n neat Action Figures called Minimates on the Space Station. Got taken by the Boomer BSG one. So, looking around I notice many of my favorite TV shows and movies have them !!!!!! And it can be a CHEAP hobby.... I've been collecting Autographs but MUCH of my mail has been going missing when I send. So, time for a change. And I notice on Ebay anyway that people will ship to canada for fair prices... which is hard to find these days for some reason. So that's cool. Now..... to FIND these things.... AHHHHHHH I don't know which stores carry them. Like I say, I'm in Canada, eastern.... we only have a Walmart and nearby we have a ToysRUs. Zellers too. That's about it. Can anyone help get me started? Where to look, where can i find whats all available? If anyone is interested in Autographed Trading Cards, got some tv production slides, etc.... I could offer to trade folks something to get me started with some loose doubles you might have (with weapons.) Anyway, the stuff im liking include: Boomer BSG Blade Assault Punisher Dark Angel (Max) Ghost Rider Ironman Witchblade Die Hard- McClaine Spiderwoman Rocky Back to the Future Marty and Doc Hawkgirl stuff like that. Anyway, hey again and hope to be able to contribute more in the future !!!! Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickle Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Hi welcome. What part of Canada do you come from? Toys R us might have some BSG ones still, but that is it so far for major retailers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallbreaker2.0 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Hi! Welcome aboard it's always nice to have another Canadian. Do you have any comic stores near you because that's where you would find minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimgb Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 Thanks for the reception folks ! I was asked- Any comic stores around here.... Actually there is One.... Technically 2 but the second is primarily a role-playing game shop. And the one we have is pretty much that.... there's not a big collecting market of anything around here really. even gaming i had to order away..... Thanks again, look forward to contributing, once i actually locate some little dudes. later,jim Welcome jimgb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
