    Warhammer shops in Orlando?

    Hello
    Does anyone know if there are any shops that sell warhammer- like Games workshops- in Orlando?
    My son has developed an interest in them and wondered whether we might get a good deal whilst out there????

    My son was into this a while back and the only shop we find was right down the east end of the 192 and if memory serves me correctly it was called coliseum of comics .If you do a search it might come up all I can really remember was it was in a small plaza on the right hand side going east .

    We have toyed with the idea of opening one in the Davenport/192 area.......a place to learn to paint..my hubby wins prizes for model painting.......and play against others......hubby looked into becoming the area manager for FL.....mostly after losing his job.....but I don't think he'll make a good shop keeper.....I would run it if I could add all my New age stuff...and he could just do the workshops in the evenings....

    There may well be a market. My hubby and son's are all into warhammer. We looked for a shop last time we were out and couldn't find one.
    But we didn't have te forum for info then so maybe this time we will be more lucky[msnwink]

    Ok I'll answer my own question for any one who might like the info in the future:
    We found 2 stores who stocked War hammer
    We were particularly looking for Lord of the rings stuff,,,,

    Coliseum of Comics
    22 Broadway Ave
    Kissimmee FL 34741
    Country: United States
    Phone Number: 407-870-5322



    Sci-Fi-City
    6006 East Colonial Drive
    Orlando, Fl 32822
    407-896-1701

    Both shops were prepared to order items (order asap after arrival though!!!) - ask about prices in each shop as they differ-

    Joolz is right. Sci-Fi City is listed as the best for Warhammer and similar stuff in the 'Best of Orlando' site.

    We found that the prices on the boxes at Sci Fi City were more expensive than or equivalent to UK.. but that at Coliseum of Comics they were cheaper - no boxes he was doing a special order for us - but it didnt come in in time. Ill check with my son how much cheaper it was.... watch this space
    BUT Sci Fi City was doing a buy one get one free offer which made it good value!
    Some guy was telling us that Brits dont tend to buy warhammer there because they are too surprised by the prices - but prices are set centrally and individual stores dont have control of them???
