Well just a casual day out to the cinema with my girlfriend, we have a holiday coming up so thought we'd try and get our hands on some cheap bits to take away with us blah blah. So she insisted we went in this 'Family Bargains' shop, I'd been in a couple of times and seen nothing significant but thought may as well give it a chance, then suddenly, a toy isle and came across some defining moments figures, couldn't actually believe my eyes, and this is what I found... Bought these 3, couldn't have been happier, was all they had and expected another delivery late this week. If you can find a 'Family Bargains' near you, best to check it out, it must be an equivalent to the 'Big Lots' in the US!

After reading your post in the UK thread I've been investigating the store for the past hour. God they don't make it easy. No website No Store Locator A facebook page with no information except a link to a website that doesn't exist I have done some digging though and there's one opened this year in Birmingham except its WAY out the city center. I read a piece that says they're opening 10 stores in the West Midlands this year. I read a piece with their owner that says they get most of their stock from the Far East! Its a spin off company from the 99p stores. Which we have loads of here, just have never seen a Family Bargains As far as I can see theres a lot in London and surrounding area

This is kinda a Smyths situation in the UK now, loads of people in UK don't have a Smyths by them and now there's this store thats emerged and a lot of people aren't by one of these.
Good thing is though both stores are expanding throughout UK!

Really good deal on those figures. I love the DM line. Its a very underrated line. I have the Warrior one, skipped out on Rock because I already have 2 of his Legends Series 3 ones.

Nice. I don't think Big Lots in the U.S. received Rock and the Warrior. (or HBK and Macho)

I spoke to a guy that worked there and he seemed the know his stuff, I asked him how they get hold of them because I thought they were only released in the states and all he said was that it was, was because they were a foreign company and can get things like that. Wouldn't mind picking up another Rock for the £9.99 price tag, an awesome figure!!
