Hi guys,
My local Hobbycraft has stopped selling lotr and all GW products.

Is his just my store, or has it happened everywhere?


Thanks,
LordElrond

There's a couple of sets left at my local Hobbycraft but yes, I think they are phasing them out. Shame, there were still some 24 model boxes there :(

My local store stopped selling them. They have a few old paints and rulebooks but mainly sold off the box sets at 1/3 off some time ago now. Picked up my Mumakil that way.

Hmm. I was in their store in Chester a couple of months back and they had VERY few paints scattered on a shelf and a lot of 40K stuff. In terms of LOTR, there were only a couple of boxes. But I'm sure their GW stock is lessened since I first visited years ago. The only other store I've been in is the Sheffield one, and, though I haven't been for a while, I don't recall them having much either.

Sheffield still got a bit but it looks like they are running the lines down to me. On the good side, if you are into scenery making they have lots of stuff (some trees scaled to 00 railway gauge I think) but plenty of scenery modelling stuff in general. Sheffield is quite big store though I think.
