Finally a nerd store that gets it!
I've never been to X Planet prior to Thursday. I've recently come across some free time, and was looking for painting supplies as opposed to models as I have lots of unpainted guys.
I cannot recall the name of the fellow working there who introduced himself to me. Sorry. We even had a 10 minute conversation, and I can't recall his name.
The store seems to be modelled after a GW layout, with lots of gaming tables in the front with full scenery to get your attention
Having been to a number of comic book stores that morphed into gaming stores it was so refeshing to walk into a non-GW gaming store that was clean, uncluttered and did not smell.
They had a small RPG section in the store, but that's not the crux of their business. There's a tonne of Privateer Press and GW product in the store. They even had Warhammer Fantasy Battalion boxes in store. My wallet started to drool.
Anyways off to the painting stuff which was why I was there. They had Vallejo Game, and Model, and the airbrush versions too. I believe that there was GW paint as well. They had a couple of the bigger Vallejo paint sets (the $300+ ones) but I wish that they had the 8 and 16 bottle sets
They also carry Citadel Paint
Really liked the store. I'll definitely come back in the future. Plus its closer to my house than the two that I recently reviewed in Brampton.
