I just found out I'm off to Singapore onb Thursday - sooo going to the TF convention at Sentosa Resorts.
Quick question, anyone know of a website or forum where I can get some help to find places to buy TFS over there?
Want to grab an MP-10 - as it should be cheap - Soundblaster and some G1 goodies...

I visited my aunt out that way about... bloody hell, 12 years ago! Well, hopefully some of the shops are in the same places.
Number one with the bullet has to be Takashimaya- a Japanese department store in Orchard Road, just along the tunnel from the Orchard Road metro station. About the same distance above-ground in the opposite direction is a Toys'r'us, but they basically have the same lines as us. So does Takashimaya, but they also import some lines. I remember seeing Beast Wars Metals and Giant Robo figures while I was there. I was dejected at the time but they got a whole batch of BW2 and Neo figures in the day before I had to fly out. I hope you have the same luck.
It's worth noting that, like Britain, Singapore is an island nation with high-ass taxes. Between the high cost of the yen and import costs, toys there may not be that much cheaper than they are here.
