The fam and I will be in Rome and Singapore in January and I was looking for up-to-date info on any references or suggestions for good miniature shops, bookstores, museums, etc. in either city. My main interests are historical books/museums/architecture (up to Renaissance), 25mm fantasy/sci-fi (WHFB/AoS, LOTR, WH40K), and 25mm historical (up to Renaissance). I have been to Kinokuniya in Singapore and plan to visit it again. Thanks in advance! |

I just got back from Singapore. There is a WH40K heavy place on Orchard street called "?? Pi", I forget the full name. I was impressed with what they had though it was a smallish shop. Search hobby store and it came up easily. There is a historical heavy shop but I didn't have time as it is. It in the city. |

Normally, I'd recommend the Battle Box at Singapore. Not in what interests you've listed here, but it's certainly WWII land from your profile. |

Thanks both of you for the tips! Robert, I visited the Battle Box the last time we were in Singapore, it was really interesting. Jdpintex, we are staying on Orchard Road so I will look that up! |

'Games at Pi' was the name of the store. |
