Wanting to buy some 1/72 miniatures for the latest project. Looking for a retailer who carries a variety of manufacturers and periods, with a website that is easy to use. Some of the websites I have tried for 1/72 are really tough, almost impossible, to navigate. Any suggestions?

Not that easy to use, but as cheap as they get these days: Toy Soldier HQ

Roll Models used to be the best, but they got bought by Kitlinx: kitlinx.com

I think the web site is too hard to use, but they seem to have a hekkuva lotta model kits, and reasonably low prices on 1/72 figures. I've never tried ordering from them.

I do a lot of model and paint shopping at Hobbylinc: hobbylinc.com

The prices are good, the shipping is reasonable (inside US), the turnaround time is great, the web site works well, the search engine is imperfect but better than most online hobby stores. The selection is weirdly spotty – I find things here I can't get anywhere else, but I also can't find things here that I can get lots of other places. They do have some 1/72 stuff, but I don't think they have lots of it.

Hello, right now I am selling 1/72 plastic figures at 50% off retail. There is unfortunately no website. I have vast stocks of napoleonics and ancients, ACW, AWI, WWI,Zulu war, etc.PM me here or email at bobwagner@optonline.net

I have had great service from Hobby Bunker, Toy Soldier HQ, and Michigan Toy Soldier Company.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Soon as I get a moment I can start doing some research. Bob, I'll send you an email over the weekend. Sounds like you might have some of what I'm looking for.
