Tried to order the Trumpeter F-100C from them, hoping it would be competitive with Sprue Brothers or Squadron, but they were high even with shipping....  They are supposed to be getting a full rack for Valaeho (sorry on the spelling) and Polly-Scale paints. Stay tuned.

I stopped in there the other day.  Agree - very nice guys.  Almost bought an RC tank...........  Restrained myself - I would either end up fired, in the Emergency Room or hopefully - both.......

Went by there on my way home tonight. Nice guys. The store is geared towards RC and gaming. They were playing around with a neat RC tank. The only paint they had was one intended for gaming models. A few tools, but that's about it. I did see some photo etch for tanks on the wall, but I can't remember the scale or the name of the company. They had a handful of plastic models, like a 1/72 Revell Ju-88 and some PM Models kits, but it looked more like what you'd stock to get a kid's attention. Andy was understandably hesitant to carry a large stock of plastic that would probably just collect dust. He did say they could order anything we wanted and could have it in a couple of days. He also guaranteed better prices than we could get online. I'll probably be putting that to the test soon. Hopefully, as their business grows, they'll be able to carry more paint brands and maybe more stuff for us plastic modelers.
