Way back in July, I was invited to my hometown of Arlington Heights by the local museum to present a class at a kids summer art camp, featuring the drawings I did of my hometown when I was growing up in the 70s and 80s. I spent about four days in town even though my presentation only lasted two hours. I had plenty of time to check out the local toy stores.
First up was Geek Toys Hut. Second was Turbo Toyz. I was kind of in a hurry so didn't purchase anything from Geek Toy Hut or take any photos. It was a nice big store with plenty for everyone. Turbo Toyz was a little smaller but still had a great selection. On day 1, I only purchased a few vintage Kenner Star Wars figures, including a small head Han Solo, which I had never had before.
Oh yeah, the museum where I did my presentation also had a small section of toys - mostly vintage dolls and doll houses.
