I just feel there is just something REALLY wrong when I can order a Leader class from HTS, get it sent to me without dealing with retail morons (employees and/or customers) AND get it cheaper than a brick and mortar location, a mass market retailer at that!
(Quick figure, it would cost me just under $47 to have HTS send me a Leader figure, without any discounts, WTF Kmart?!)

I wonder what percentage of revenue comes from their toy department? | |
