Windy City stores? (1 Viewer)

[Carnahan]

I'm going to be up in Chicago next week and was wondering if there were any shops in or around the city that carried any plastic figures.

Unfortunately, none that I am aware of. I live in a suburb of Chicago and I often go to the Toy Soldier Shoppe In Milwaukee, which is about 90 miles north of Chicago.

Hi.
I was there yesterday. He only has some of the painted Britains plastics.

I would suggest callling him at 414-302-1850

Thanks! I'd love to make my way up north for a short trip centered around some stores - we are really lacking down south, unfortunately.

What type of plastics are you seeking? In Elmhurst you have "It's Good to be King" and Al's Hobby Shop. Al's has Airfix, Hat, CTS, San Diego, Ilateri. King has San Diego, Britains, BMC, New Ray, etc.
The Olde Toy Soldier Shoppe is a great store, especially if you are into Britains, K&C, and various other metal toy soldiers. Whenever I am in the Milwaukee area I stop in and see Paul Hermann.

King also has Armies in Plastic.

I am hoping either Al's or King get the German Medics, which is supposed to be released any day now.
