So I'm moving to Hamilton, ON, in a month. I know of Magic Pony and Indus Trees in Toronto but was wondering if there were other stores to check out in the general area... Anyone know Hamilton at all?

Hero are definitely awesome, but they're closing up the retail shop to focus on their design studio - http://heroandsound.com/?p=3501

I first got hooked on vinyl toys at Hero several years ago, and for a while I was stopping by every other week. They slowly shifted their shop away from toys to focus on their posters and print work, which was a little sad for toy nerds like me but seriously great for them. From what they told me the toys were always a way for them to help finance the design studio, so it's very cool to see them becoming successful enough to focus solely on their art.

If there are other places to buy toys here in Buffalo, I haven't found them...

that's sad to hear in one respect. Happy to hear their art is doing so well.
