    Keep a look out, my Jurassic Park crossover pack just charged me last night and will be in tomorrow. I know my check was late due to Veterans Day and just want everyone that may have preordered to be aware so they aren't short or cancelled.

    Oh no, I hope it isn't true.. I love their store, despite not getting to it very often.

    Why have I never heard about this store before now? I've been over there a few times for the winery but I guess I never saw the toy store... Would it be worth the drive from downriver?

    Throne of Toys is a nice store for its size, but they're in a terrible location. They were supposed to move before but those plans got cancelled.

    Edit: Speaking of location, Nerd Out has an honorable mention. Not so much the location, but the awful parking. If you've been there, then you'll know what I'm talking about. I feel like my car is gonna get hit when trying to leave.

    Unfortunately it is true. I had a lengthy chat with the store owner and is a friend of one of the staff member. Long story short, the terrible distribution is having a tow on the smaller retailers like them and it's been a tough year. Since someone already mentioned it, they still have 3 threezero nemesis prime sealed in box and one out in the display. Two MP arcee and several other generations stuff. All those applied to the 20% off sale that's ending tonight. Also, they have an MP-52 starscream at 279.99, but the 20% off DOES NOT apply to that as it being a new item. To me, it has always been a very good store because unlike other toy stores around the area, there is NO extra cost for all the transformers there. Everything is at retail price.

    Depending on your needs. They are a bit behind due to distribution issues. But they have by far the most complete GS collection in the area, and stuff you won't find in retails such as masterpieces. They also have a nice big wall of exclusive pops if anyone is interesting in that.

    Yeah, I've found stuff from a lot of different toy lines that I couldn't find anywhere else there. Plus, it's nice to see an actual store I can walk around in.
