  • The Sentry Box boasts a number of product lines of interest to a wide range of clientelle, from sci-fi hobbyists to serious military researchers. The store is divided into several sections; I'm most familiar with the military section, which includes a large showroom for military/wargame themed games (both wargames and miniatures) which include both current titles and a very good selection of vintage games dating back literally decades. As well, an excellent collection of Osprey Men-at-Arms, Elite, Campaign and other reference book series, as well as a selection of military hard and soft covers both new and used, including very hard to find titles from publishers such as J.J. Fedorowicz and Militaire. The owner, Gord Johansen, has been part of the games scene in Calgary for decades as well and is extremely friendly and knowledgeable and will take time to answer questions, research inventory, and acquire products for you - just ask. There are large sections of the store devoted also to sci-fi/manga/fantasy books, games, miniatures, associated supplies such as dice, paint, etc. as well as space set aside in the store for game tournaments and other in-house events. Staff are friendly and generally knowledgeable, sometimes a little shy, and some of the vintage products are not always priced - this is the downside of shopping in a FLGS. The upside is that great prices can often be found from shopping in-store - check out the bargain bins of vintage magazines and bagged games if you are a collector of such - much better prices than shopping online. And speaking of which, all new inventory can be searched in their online catalogue before coming down to the store if you really don't want to browse the shelves. Last of the big hobby shops that lives up to its well-deserved reputation.
