Sold for $199.

I had it down as a 9.4 conservatively, congratulations on a stunning book, bet there was a little poop in the pants when you opened it, I would have sh@t myself. 

You can't beat Ploogs Man-Thing.

Sorry! Can't pardon you for this, or anyone who liked it, shame on you all. 

Don't forget to try the local brew.

I hate it when the picture is someone holding the comic and his finger nails are rotten, no chance of me buying that, puts me right off  

Or even worse you can see his cheesy feet in the photo, yuk

Ebay is minging.

It would be best to try and coordinate a London visit when the London comic mart is on one of the Sundays, not always possible I know, but just a thought.

Hey all, tried searching to see if there was an old, existing thread but couldn't find any...

Going to be in London for about a week and a half soon while the wife runs the London Marathon, and was looking for any recommendations on comic and retro/vintage toy stores to hit up. I already have Forbidden Planet on the list (though if one location is better than the others for back issues and goodies, let me know!), but otherwise, Google Maps wasn't being super helpful on finding vintage toy stores (if there even are any), and most of the other comic shops I was finding seemed to be mainly modern stock stores...so any advice would be great!

Thanks in advance!

If you are looking for back issues, Forbidden Planet will be a waste of time.

Gosh! Comics. 1 Berwick Street, London W1F 0DR Modern stuff upstairs and back issues down stairs, ask the guy behind the desk and he will take out even more back issue boxes for you.
