Blue Line Collectibles Philadelphia
Comics and action figures
I love this place. If you like comics or action figures or anything about the comic/fantasy universe, that we have so much of these days, then this spot is for you. Tom, the owner, who is incredibly friendly, can also answer or find out pretty much anything you want to know.
Blue Line Collectibles differs itself in a number of ways from other comic shops by being incredibly clean and not stuffy. So many comic shops you go into have comics scattered everywhere which makes things hard to find. Not here! When it comes to keeping it clean and using every ounce of space properly without seeming cluttered, Tom's got it down.
If you are looking for He-Man, Star Wars, Harley Quinn, X-Men, Spidey, or something harder to find, Tom can help you out. He stays on top of the action figure industry so well that any question you ask he will be able to answer and help you find anything you need in the store. Come on down to check out what's new in the biz, or just appreciate some new art that's coming out, deep in the bowels of South Philly.
