The end of Hobby HQ...

Postby BradG » Sat Mar 04, 2023 12:35 am

As of this afternoon, Hobby HQ has ceased trading. Bill always planned to close at the end of the financial year, but it seems as though someone bought him out of all the stock he had left, so that's it. A shame as he was my LHS and I'd been going there for some 25 years. I wish Bill the best in retirement or whatever else he chooses to do.

It appears all the stock was bought by Metro Hobbies.

I'm extra glad I picked up those Dragon tank riders then the last time I was at the shop. They'd have had an appearance on the Metro shelves for double what I paid!
