First, I said in my previous entry that Hamilton Hobby Specialties was closing after 40 years. I was wrong. They're closing after 61 years. (Gosh.)

Second... the missing RPG stuff?

THEY BROUGHT IT OUT. THE VAULTS WERE OPENED!

It was in storage all this time! I was there! I saw it! Treasures fine and rare! Timeship modules! Star Frontiers adventures! Stuff for Chill! 2nd edition Gamma World GM screens! A bin full of Ral Partha figs!

I didn't see anything newer than 1988. Everything is shrinkwrapped and pristine. All books are $10, flat, no matter the cover price. Minis are $5 a pack, or $20 for 5 packs. The one snag - there don't appear to be any core rulesets left, or at least none are currently on display.


*runs around* I bought.. I bought things! I don't even know what they are!

Hamilton Hobby Specialities! 236 Kenilworth Ave North! Apparently, they will continue bring up old stock over the next few weeks until the building is sold.

I for one will be going back every Saturday.

Lucky find Pyat!, lucky find!

Anything Battletech-y in the vault?

Not in what they had out, though they say there's more in the basement. I'll check back next week!
