    I located it a couple days after reading his post- it's called "Galaxy of Heroes". Tiny little place but complete line of new comics and an assload of toys. Worth a look for sure. He has a few of the first wave of World's Smallest TF's for sale for 10 bucks and under (Ops' trailer however is 25$ ugh). He had op, op trailer, sideswipe, starcream, bumblebee and soundwave. I got the last Starscream but he has at least a couple each of the rest.

    But in additon to a fairly nice TF assortment he has GIjoe, star wars, and mucho other cool stuff. :thumb :

    Super Sweet Vintage G1 Sale @ Pet's Comics on Preston Hwy!

    I'm sure most of you have checked out this place out on Preston past the wal-mart and meijers but if not check it out!

    Anyway, I was just out there this afternoon and they had a "collection buyout" from an adult collector. They were almost all complete loose figures with tech specs, bagged and very well taken care of. A lot of them looked absolutely new from the stickers to the total lack a plastic wear or discoloration. Great stuff, everything from orig power op, original g1 cars and jets to micromasters, insecticons and throttlebots. All kinds of stuff!

    The best part is the "stickered" prices were great. 25 bucks for a mint complete targetmaster kup. 43 bucks for a near mint complete perceptor. (for examples). I headed to the register to snag my sweet flawless paint and sticker 25$ complete kup, (woo hoo) And guess what? Manager tells me that all prices are actually half of the sticker price! I went back and got perceptor as well. Kup for 12.50!!! Perceptor for about 22!! And after opening and inspecting i was blown away! I am happy that these flawless little jewels have found a worthy home.


    I encourage any who can to check all the stuff out there out! There's something probably for any g1 fan and it's a great quality for very nice prices!

    Is Pet's Comics the name of the place , looked it up and it was'nt listed. I live right behind Jmall so it's just down the street so if you remember exactly where it was it would be awesome.

    Thanks for the scoop man, I've always hit Toycrazy & great escape, about time for something different.

    It's either "pet's comics" or "petshop comics". Do you you know where Preston hwy meets the Gene Snyder? Their is a fairly new Meijers out there and and a Super Wal mart a ways further south. Well just about a mile further than the Walmart on preston is a shopping center on the right. The comice shop is there kinda right in the middle. :D 

    I think they are open like 12pm- 6 or 7pm.

    Sweet!

    Glad i could steer ya to the deals. That guy's got a nice shop. :thumb :

    Other than Pet's and Great Escape/ Toy Crazy which you mentioned, there is also "comic book world" on shephardsville road (comics and new toys only) and "pulp heroes" on eastern blvd. in Clarksville (comics, all kinds of toys).

    That sale at Pet's is definitely the best deal i've ever seen. :ROCK
