@@BillsWargameWorld My dad and I took a trip to Gettysburg the other year and visited BOTH of those places. They are both great stores. Here in NoVA there are a couple of places that sell Warhammer and Warlord but nothing I would call a Hobby Store, or like this...may need to do a road trip.
Very true. They are a disappearing breed. Here in Toronto they are vanishing like Bison on the prairie. Hang on to them and keep them close to your heart's.
Great store! All of the hobby stores like this in my area of NJ are gone now. I loved perusing the the old stores when they were here and ALWAYS walked out with something. Thanks for the tour Bill. Be well
I have a shop up the road from me about a 35 minuet walk from my house, it sell several brands of model kits and soldiers. I would love to go to this store.
Nice little video. You showed that he had a lot of varied stock, and highlighted some beautifully painted items. There will always be people who complain that you didn't focus on certain things enough, but honestly despite how small the store is you could have spent half an hour in there and not covered everything. Heck you could have spent half an hour just focusing on the painted items. That is the kind of place where you either go into knowing exactly what you are looking for, or spend an hour or so checking everything out and poking in all the corners.
Oh god, I could spend hours in that shop going through the stock... That stock of vintage hex and counter games... My wallet is happy there's an ocean between it and the shop :-)
Have always admired Norm's painted figures at the HMGS East conventions (and purchased a few). Fantastic looking store. Thanks for that great look-see video. I gotta visit there some day!
I just picked up The Forts of Colonial North America from osprey includes Fort Frederic,Fort Ligonier, Fort Bedford, Fort Pitt,Fort Necessity, Fort Augusta and others
Have never been there but suspect its the Lads behind the Counter that make the place. You'd start talking about paint or figures and before long you are swapping stories and the afternoon has just gone.
Ligioner is on the very very far outskirts of the Pittsburgh area, and is kind of a destination for weekend trips/camping etc for lots of Pittsburghers. A great little town
Wow! What a throwback to the golden era of gaming!
This is the hobby shop of my childhood --you just don't see these anymore.
this and the Gettysburg miniature shop and tommy Gilberts in Gettysburg

Grew up vising Norm's shop, great guy always been a saint and a friend.

What an amazing shop! I would love to visit and shop.
Like a dream to a hobbyist like myself.
This is an amazing shop. My dad actually grew up near New Florence and went to Laurel Valley HS. Not far away.

Excellent, a store like the good old days. Bravo sir. cheers
Love shopping here and talking with Norm. So much to see and Norm and his wife are great to get painting tips from too!
what a terrific store..........has it all.
GREAT love to have a store like that in uk
1/72 soldier goodness. Amazing stuff that looks good for filling out an army.
Have always admired Norm's painted figures at the HMGS East conventions (and purchased a few). Fantastic looking store. Thanks for that great look-see video. I gotta visit there some day!
What a gem of a store, thank you for sharing!!
This is a kind of store that if I died and gone to heaven this is it. All it needs is a section to play games.
Looks like a road trip
Great video! Wish I could have made the trip but you guys did like 700-800 miles - hard for me to make that! Thanks again!
Awesome store!!!!!! Just like the good old days.
Awesome shop! Love it.
I often make the trip out from Pittsburgh on the weekends just to hit this place up.
I'm movin' to PA!
great vid, in a great shop ,cheers

magnificent
Dammit I am in Delaware and I feel a road trip coming.
awesome indeed.

Wow! Im 52 and you can't find this anymore out west. Do you have an online?
Ligonier PA has a population of around 2000. How on earth are there enough hobbyists and gamers to keep this store in business??
They do
@@BillsWargameWorld It looks like a great store that I'd visit every day, I just don't see where the customers come from.
Feck it ! I was born in the wrong country 😂😂😂
He's really in a Decent Location. Lots of people travel to and visit Fort Necessity and Braddock 's Grave.
Ligioner is on the very very far outskirts of the Pittsburgh area, and is kind of a destination for weekend trips/camping etc for lots of Pittsburghers. A great little town
Theres a store like this in gettysburg pa as well
Yes and I make a video of it each month
You have obviously not made a stop at "The Hobbit" on Yadkin Blvd in Fayetteville, N.C.. 😁
No way I live in Ligonier Pensilvania I went there I that is crazy
Wow!!!!!!!!
So weird seeing a video about this little shop

Does he stock 10mm painted civil war figures?
@@williamhempsteadjr. I do not know you can call him
@@BillsWargameWorld thank you I will
Any painted western figures? Any customers that are selling figures they have painted?
Norm can answer
I’m not kidding i will tell you the ligonier Cremery
Next Time I go back to Fort Necessity you bet I'm stopping here.
I live here pls contact with me I’m not kidding the ligonier cremery has 5 chocolates butter pecan and all kinds of flavors like diamond vanilla
address would be great
It is on the video bussines Card
Dude you go wayyy tooooo fast in your video's. Stay focused on one item for at least 6-7 seconds!
