Famous GI Joe store in BC?
« on: June 01, 2009, 09:56:26 PM »

Hey guys!

I saw once some pics from a store in BC with a lot of GI Joe figs and vehicles on display. Can you tell me where it is (what city?)?

Thanks!

Martin

Not just a Joe store - but it's called Toy Traders, in Langley BC.
Here's a vid I took in 2006 of it when I was out there. I'm sure it's changed since then

I've never been to the store myself, but I know its adjacent the Willowbrook shopping mall, on the south side of the lot.

That place is like my Mecca. I wish I would have known about it when I lived in Victoria...

I believe they do--but I do not know how they price the stuff.

I'll be in that area in the next month or so and I plan to go check it out. I'll let the B.C people know how it looks.
