Hello,

Another one bites the dust?

I fly to Irvine CA frequently on business trips. Last Saturday, I decided to stop by Military Hobbies only to find that they are moving stuff out of the store and the lot is pretty empty. Also, I saw a FOR LEASE sign by the road side.

Is Military Hobbies now gone too?

This will be a bummer as I consider it to be a very good hobby store and really enjoyed visiting it.

Can anyone please confirm it is closed and gone permanently? Perhaps it is moving locations?

Cheers!

Oh! Good to hear! This year has been bad for hobby stores in the San Francisco Bay Area, so that got me worried about Military Hobbies.

Cheers!
