Well, I live in NYC area and I think I know what store you speak of - in the Village, correct? Perhaps I shouldn't tell you about "certain" well-developed import sites where you can get a copy of just about anything that comes out of Japan in any version you can dream of ... And I'm sure you know of Anime Network, all anime, all the time. Now, be strong! Don't google these things! You have work to do and can't be distracted!

The store I'm talking about is actually in Chinatown. I've been to Mondo Kim's in the Village, and their anime section (all half of one side of an island) left something to be desired. Is there another store in the Village that I don't know of? Don't worry, I know about Anime Network, and I purposely don't get it. I won't google anything either.

  Well I actually forgot the name, but I'm pretty sure it's not Mondo Kim. It's like straight out of a movie where you find this old, eclectic store and it has all these buildable, multi-scale Gundam models, etc. I try not to go becuase the first time I went it was like, "Dragon Ball Z - the Uncut, Unedited version" and it was like, "WTF? There's an edited and an unedited version"? Basically everything they have makes me realize just how much I haven't seen ... by the time I got done with my wish list I had like $15,000 worth of anime I really, really wanted to see. That's when i realized I lost control, walked out and never came back. But if you want to chase the anime dragon, let me know - I"ll ask around for you. But I don't take responsibility if you walk into the anime den never to see the light of day again ...

    Thanks, that would be great. I know it's not the Tokyo Toy Store on St. Marks Place. They have a lot of action figures (mostly Asian) but no anime. I don't travel to NYC often, so I'm not worried about being there constantly, and I definitely don't have the kind of money to splurge on a lot of anime. I know I'll be OK.
