the comic book shoppe on bank street sells loose as well as misb/c. They also sell the regular ROTF stuff. For example in the past they have sold the takaratomy MP Starscream, Alternity Convoy, mosc beast machines. Their loose figures consist of G1, G2, Beast Wars/Beast Machines, UT, movie-verse.

There is also a Comic Book Shoppe on Merivale, but they don't have loose figs, from what I recall. They do have some imports and regular releases there...

Also there is Toys On Fire at the south end of the city in Barrhaven. Good selection, high prices.

There is a Silver Snail downtown on Bank Street, which has some imports, but watch for sun-bleached boxes. Sometimes a good place to find figures released 2-3 years ago.

best place hands down (if price is not an issue) is Toys on Fire, they always have a great selection of new and old, but prices can be a bit much at times, like $18-$19 for a deluxe.I guess it depends on what you are looking for.

The comicbook shop on bank st is great for some older figures loose out of box, I was there a few days ago, they had a RID magnus, some pretenders, so g2 and some beast wars. If you go there try and find a guy named Jodie, who is a fellow collector.

Of course there are also a few ToysRus locations and Walmarts as well.

Hope that helps

I couldn't have said it better.
