I'll be in the area Sunday afternoon. Any stores I could visit?

Thanks

Not much.

Maplewood Hobbies in Maplewood, NJ.

Maplewood Hobbies is about 1.5 hours from Philly. This is not a knock on Maplewood Hobbies in any way but I would not classify the store as being in the Philadelphia area. It's located in Jersey outside NYC.

Nothing in Trenton proper, a couple of gaming stores in the surrounding townships. I suggest if you have a car go to AAA Hobbies in Magnolia it's 2-3 miles from the Walt Whitman bridge (706 N White Horse Pike, Magnolia, NJ 08049)

@syracusepops

He also said Trenton. Trenton is not exactly close to Philly.

You'll forgive me since I live in Montgomery County, PA. So I kind of know where both cities are located.

Just saying.

Never been to it but Military Matters isn't far from Trenton.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I'm about an hour north from Maplewood Hobbies and get there about once a year. Great store. I was going to Philadelphia for a few days and thought the Trenton / Philadelphia corridor would be a reasonable search area. It's tough to tell from online searches. Something like Maplewood would be the goal.

Try Showcase Comics on rt320 in Delaware County. Have a fair bit on things going on most weekends.
