Hey guys, my wife and I are heading to Seattle this week and were wondering if anyone could recommend any stores in Downtown Seattle (near Safeco Field)? I checked the local postings board and there was nothing of value.
BONUS: What's your favorite figure(s) you've grabbed on vacation or business trip?

Cool thread idea. I bought E19 Liz at WM across the street from my hotel at 6am while in Detroit for work. It was the only elite in the building and still the only time I ever saw her at retail. I smiled that whole day. I had to rub my eyes in that aisle to make sure I was awake.

I grabbed an Elite 4 Finlay in Georgia. It was an awesome figure.

This is so off topic, but isn't your signature pic of Jericho from Safeco Field? A weird coincidence I picked up.

I still remember it like it was yesterday. Summer of 2000, driving from Chicago to Denver. We stopped at a mall in Nebraska for a break. Walked into a KB toys & finally found ROTR Tazz & the Dudleys. I was making almost daily trips to my TRU looking for them. Then I found TTL5 the next day in Denver. Picked up Angle, Jericho, & Test.

Superstar Entrances CM Punk whilst in Austin, Texas for SXSW (I'm in the UK). I still regret not getting Dolph too.

I always have trouble tracking down figures during trips. I usually just stop by Walmarts and Targets and they pretty much have nothing

I usually just stop by Walmarts and Targets and they pretty much have nothing I haven't found a decent place yet, so it looks like it'll be the one local Target for me. Whenever I'm on the road, Targets and Walmarts are almost musts to stop at.

Kmarts and TRU's as well! I'm getting pretty damn burnt out on KMart. I haven't found anything there since early December when they had E16 and the Entrance Stage. Every one I've been to has been bare. I won't buy from TRU unless it's my local one, they're too expensive and have limited stock. The exception to the rule was the one in Times Square, they had EVERYTHING!

Hey Y2Jake, i'm from the Seattle area and I have not really seen anything really good figure wise in Seattle unfortunately. However, Tacoma seems to be pretty good with the new Wal-Mart opening and such. Have a good trip!

Thanks for letting me know, I would have gone crazy with "What ifs?". lol

I just got back from a vacation myself. With a new found appreciation for my crappy local walmarts and targets. I mean these were like the worst I've ever been in. Not only for wwe,but toys in general. They had like all of 4 feet across for figures. The rest of the isle was hot wheels and the like combined with legos and nerf stuff. Very disappointed in the shopping options there. Ironically the day I got back home I found some awesome (although non wwe ) stuff at my walmart just down the road.
