    Dr. Mego in London

    Toy Fair ended on Thursday - and Saturday morning I boarded the flight to
    London England.

    I just hit Forbidden Planet's megastore and saw about 6 Two-Faces,
    2 Black Mantas, Ghostbusters, and Ian Scotts.

    Great store - although I can't find any shirts in XXL.

    Lots of Dr. Who love here - even have the Dr. Who Experience.
    Still lots of old phone booths even though everyone here is
    using mobile phones.

    Time to nick off to the pub across the street.

        Gotta make sure these are available in stores here, as well as all the others. And not just comic shops

            Must have been a thrill to see your handiwork so far from home. Congrats!

              It is - unfortunately my wife was not with me, so there was no one
              to share it with. In fact, I didn't notice much staff. The store was
              pretty busy because it is a school holiday here as well.

                If you get the chance to do some sightseeing, I recommend the Tower of London or hop on a train for round trip for the day and go over to Bath to see some of the sights there. British Library has a small Beatles exhibit, too, near some Shakespeare's original work, etc.
                It's all good!

                  How about a Sherlock Holmes and Jack the Ripper 2 pack?

                  :-p

                    But an "imaginary" Jack . I had the Mezco one, loved it but the body organ included went too far.

                    I remeber Forbidden Planet from 1989. There was a dalek, and the scary masks of the dead homeowers from Beetlejuice.

                        that would be sweet, loved the Mezco Ripper, lots of gruesome accessories.
