I second the recommendation of Forbidden Planet for you UK people (like myself). They're pretty good there - can get almost anything! I found some old RGB comics in there a while back. The store in London has moved from Tottenham Court Road, can't remember for the life of me where it is now, but my mate has been there and said the new premises are great.

I'm not usually a big fan of comics but this new one looks great. The guys look like a great cross between their movie selves and their film selves. Especially glad they did something with Ray - my bro was never entirely convinced as a kid that the guy in RGB was meant to be the same guy as in the movie!

The store off of Oxford Street moved? Where to?

I just checked this out. Apparently the one on Oxford Street is still open - although I've heard differently.

There's a brand spanking new one at 179 Shaftesbury Avenue. According to the site it has 25,000 stock lines spread over 2 floors and 10,000 sq ft - this makes it the largest cult/sci-fi shop in the world. Sounds pretty impressive to me! Will definitely be checking it out.

Why does that address sound familiar somehow? I'll have to check it out next time I'm in London….

I knew the one off of Oxford Street had a basement which dealt mostly with videos, well, next time I'm in London, I got to check it out.
