Hi Folks I am travelling across the pond tomorrow to spend a few days in New York (Business sadly) – I am staying in the city and was wondering if there were any shops folks could recommend to visit on Saturday am? cheers Eric the Shed |

See if the Forbes Museum is open. I believe that the are on
11 th. street. There is a spectacular collection of toy soldiers on display, as well as those Fabrage eggs.
I'm not sure if it is stil open, but if it is, it's worth the trip. |

Compleat Strategist is the gaming shop in Manhattan. Board games, lots of Osprey books and fantasy figures. Sadly, Polk's is long gone. |

Sadly, Polk's is long gone. The Soldier Shop as well, I believe (speaking from The Left Coast)?

Not a wargame shop but if you like SciFi as well then "Forbidden Planet" is a required stop. |
