Something the internet has never been very good at is selling toys. If you want a specific action figure, it’s kind of hard to find it. The big stores you’d think of, Amazon, Toys ‘R’ Us, Target, etc. don’t provide very comprehensive selections, or they don’t keep toys in stock very reliably. Usually you have to turn to collector’s sites which charge twice the list price for the toy just so that it can have a guaranteed mint on card status. But what if you don’t care about the alleged collectors’ quality? What if you want to actually open up the toy and play with it?
Anyway, I’m having trouble finding Marvel Legends’ new Ultimate Iron Man toy (review/pics). I already have an Ultimate Captain America who sits on my desk at work, and I’d like an Iron Man to match. I can keep checking at Target and other toy stores, but it’s annoying that I can’t just buy one from an online store for the price I’d pay in person.
