Rhode Island Hobby Stores
 
I'm looking for a decent hobby (or other) store with models. My son and I have built a couple together and he is getting the itch again. I went to Apponaug which had a fair selection but they really cater more to the professional plastic modeler and less to a 5 year old kid ;)

Looking especially for simple kits like rockets or the Space Shuttle - that sort of thing.

Hmmm - thought they were more RC and little to no models....

Nah, he makes sense about half the time as opposed to Skip, who rarely makes sense though the law of averages states he'll stumble across a proper argument from time to time :laughs: :wiggle:
