  March 26th News!

  March 26, 2025

  March 26th Updates  Hello everyone! We had an average week in the shop, with heavy rain on Monday and a couple of chilly days. Thursday is one of our busiest days, as dozens of gamers start arriving around 4 PM to socialize, roll dice, and play Magic: The Gathering. Have you had a chance to check out our new and improved paint section? Hopefully, I will get my truck back tomorrow so I can head to the Wings and Wheels model show in Chicopee on Sunday. Like everything these days, my transmission cost a small fortune to replace! A wide selection of new toy soldiers has just been added to the website (see below), and we have also received approximately 50 Gundam model kits that are now available on the shelves. Additionally, we have sorted through dozens of other model kits from various collections. We received some game restocks this week, including miniatures, Battletech, dice, board games, and CCG supplies. I don't believe we previously mentioned the restocks and new items that arrived from Wargames Atlantic. There are many exciting 28mm figures to assemble. This Saturday at noon, come down and play Kings of War. On Sunday, join us for a painting session with Albert. We invite everyone to come down and paint anything—gaming miniatures, model kits, or whatever you have. Don’t know how to paint? We can help, and we have some pre-primed miniatures available for free.

  March 20th Updates  Hello everyone! We have had a busy week here at the shop. We just rearranged the entire paint section, so be sure to stop by and check it out, along with the new AK Interactive paint rack. Last week, we had a fantastic toy soldier show in New Jersey, which attracted a large crowd and resulted in significant sales! Unfortunately, I didn't make it home because my transmission failed in Connecticut. I suppose that's the cost of doing business!

   Hello everyone, I am a bit rushed this week as I am recovering from my jet lag after returning from the West Coast. Tonight, I am excited to see Dropkick Murphys! Tomorrow, I will be heading down to the New Jersey Toy Soldier Show. We have many games scheduled for this month, and business has been thriving despite the current news. Thank you all for your support! Above is a photo from a personal collection that I had the opportunity to view in California last week. Who doesn't have an antique German castle in their kitchen? We have included some pictures from the West Coast shows below.

  March 5th Updates  Spring is in the air here in Wakefield, and the season is just around the corner! I am heading to Orange County, California, for the West Coast Toy Soldier Show tomorrow. Evan, Albert, and Dawn will be holding down the fort all weekend! Scroll down for details regarding the show. There will be room trading at the hotel on Friday and Saturday. We have just sent out postcards for our Toy Soldier Show on April 6th, which will be held here in Burlington, MA—bringing toy soldier cheer to both coasts! Additionally, we have included our gaming schedule for March below. A Bolt Action Tournament has just been added for March 22nd. This Saturday, we will have a prerelease for the Star Wars CCG, so stop by and grab some cards at 11 AM. We have received a 10% tariff on imports from China. The John Jenkins Designs shipment has finally cleared U.S. Customs and was delivered today. We hope this is a one-time occurrence. As a result of the tariffs, we will be adjusting our prices and modifying our "free shipping" policy for orders placed in the next week or two. We are currently in discussions with manufacturers and other dealers to develop a comprehensive plan. I anticipate that we will gradually see the prices of some games and other items we offer increase in the coming months. Buy now! Are you experiencing difficulties checking out on our website?
