    I ventured out to NS Target again, but nothing of note except a few Grapples and a Starscream.

    I'm not after the Whirl, but out of curiosity, which McKay's? I think there's at least three in the state?

    If there's a second one around Nashville, their website neglects to mention it at all.

    There is a Mr Kay's in Johnson City too. Slightly different name, but same type if store. Actually, it is a little better and more neat too.

    The Knoxville McKay's has turned into a junky flea market. I hate going in there now. Ugh.

    It's like all of the bad parts of a flea market without any of the good parts, but with snobby hipster employees.

    Chattanooga’s store is about the same. Lots of pretentious hipsters here as well. It is pretty much the only people they will hire.

    True, but there is always that "diamond in the rough". Examples: I picked up that giant movie Sentinel Prime MISB for $20. I found a Marvel Transformers #1 for $5. My son found the Transformers : The Movie Manga. Little finds here and there. ;)

    Would post a pic but the board is blocking it for some reason
