Thanks to Jesse
After Mrs Hobbit's an my 1 week Caribbean cruise, we were picked up by Jesse and Eric who took us to a great restaurant in Ft Lauderdale and then they took us to one of the greatest comic/toys stores I've ever been to. It's called Tate's Comics in Ft Lauderdale. Could have spent more time than we had but while I was there I picked up a Parallax Eaglemoss figure and a model of the NSEA Protector from Galaxy Quest. One of my favorite movies. Jesse's shipping it to me as it could have been damaged carrying on the plane. When it arrives I'll post pics!
Thanks to Jesse and Eric for spending a Saturday with us and to Mrs Hobbit for patiently seeing a couple of geeks browse through Tate's Comics.

Jesse took Steph and I to Tate's late last year and I was gobsmacked. It's hands down the greatest comic store I've ever seen. Just amazing. And Jesse and Eric treated us like royalty when we visited, they were FAR too kind
