Kooltoyz, legendsactionfigures. You might not find the rarest figure. But they do have some interesting things. The prices are also good in general.

Funny I was thinking about asking the same question.

So far I've used:
amazon.com - classics and 20th DVD OP
ebay.com - Alternators
hasbrotoyshop.com - exclusive stuff when available, some titaniums and classics.

I have found quite a few more sites, but I can't recommend any until I've had first hand experience dealing with them.

Some of these over-seas(Hong Kong and Japan) shops seem to have good prices, while some are the same price or higher than local suppliers. (in the USA). The only thing that I'm not quite sure is which delivery method to choose. It seams "land" takes way too much time and the package can be damaged. Then there is Air Mail, which is cheaper than EMS, whatever that is. Does it really matter assuming there is no hurry to get it?

So far I have 4 separate outstanding orders placed. (some in-stock, some back-ordered, some pre-ordered) 1 with a Hong Kong shop. 3 with local USA shops. Once they start trickling into my doorstep, I'll post my experiences.

NO! I REPEAT! NO! Do NOT use Bill's Toys & Games. The man is a fraud, and he'll rip you off. He'll rob you blind.

There's a 20% chance you'll receive your stuff, if you're lucky. But by that point....PayPal won't side with you because it's been over 30 days. He always comes up with ridiculous excuses (and then uses guilt to get you to feel bad for him) and none of it's even remotely true.

He screwed over one of TFW's biggest names. And publicly admitted he screwed up, but never truly offered any compensation. (and what little he did offer, he knew he'd never have to go through with it.)

Even over at TFans there's a post there of people stating how scummy he is.

And even if you get past these hurtles and actually get your stuff...it could be as long as YEAR!

Avoid Bill's like the plague. PLEASE?

Amazon's excellent, and fast.

eBay, it all depends on the seller, but if you're smart, you can get a hell of a good deal.

BBTS.com is expensive, but they do come through.

Digital-Toys is another good one, one of the absolute best out there. No joke.

Ages 3 & Up (A3U) is known to be one of the absolute best places out there.

Good luck. Just please...avoid Bill's.

Check out JRSToyworld. I haven't bought any TFs from them but I have bought some Mini-Mates and they've been great.
