Post 5&A Dime
Rejoice, San Diegans! It looks like 5&A Dime is carrying toys again, and more specifically: S7 toys!

http://www.5andadime.com/blog.php?id=819

Of course my wallet isn't rejoicing, since I live a block from the shop. :)

It's true, I just have not had time to post about it! Check out Five&A Dime in San Diego, Wootini in NC or Camion de Pompier in Montreal. All three are friends of Super7 over the years who are now carrying the goods for their local fans. Support them as well as the classic S7 shops: Rotofugi, Mishka, Ultrapop, Lulubell, Red Hot Robot and Devil Doll records.

I couldn't think of a better store to be represented in Southern Cali then 5&Dime. Congrats!

We are extremely excited to be the distributors of super7 products here in sunny san diego. As most of you know we used to carry all sorts of toys a few years back and what better way to get back into the scene than teaming up with s7. Hopefully we can put together some special events for the SD collectors. This is also a good way to meet and find some of the collectors here in san diego...

Just got back from 5 and a Dime with Dejesus. Totally stoked that Jay is starting to bring back toys to the store again; he said he stopped doing so before because he wasn't liking the direction toys were taking in the past couple of years. He does like the JP vinyl stuff though, obviously. Certainly thanks to Kris too, this wouldn't have happened! :)

It is wonderful to see little stores, but by bit, beginning to carry groovy goods like S7 product!

Nice, I'll have to check it out. It's always been sdcc and the atypical online hit ups, but this will be a nice change of pace.

Checked out 5 & A Dime yesterday after reading this thread and scored me some Super 7 product. It was cool to go on a toy hunt in SD again and get instant Super 7 gratification. Very cool store that needs to be visited if you are in SD.

Had to ReUp on the toys huh? I was so bummed when 5&A dime switched to clothing. Now it might actually be worth stopping by again.

Definitely! No worries, I'm sorry I didn't pick anything up. Next time I'm in (probably this weekend) I'm grabbing a few things.
