Next Friday Is First Friday! (once again!)
You might remember them from such art shows as We Murdered The Avengers from a few years ago…or you may not. Anyways our friends from down the street have gone done and put together a new show. Hammy Sparkle.
MTG: Dark Ascension Launch Party
Our Willow Grove store will be running a Dark Ascension Launch Party at 12 noon on Sunday February 5th. It is a sealed booster tournament with a $30 entry fee. Each player will receive 3 boosters of Innistrad and 3 boosters of Dark Ascension from which to construct a (minimum) 40-card sealed deck. Included in the entry price is a commemorative foil card: Mondronen Shaman / Tovolar’s Magehunter. Dark Ascension booster packs will be awarded as prizes for the top 8 players. For more information, call us at the Willow Grove location (215-657-8838) or check out the official website for the launch party here.
Q is Coming!
If you’re anything like Rob or myself then you are a huge fan of both Star Trek The Next Generation and Breaking Bad (obv those 2 go hand in hand). Imagine our surprise when we got a call asking us if we wanted to host a signing with the one and only John de Lancie! Hells yea you read that correctly! Q is coming!
Malifaux miniatures invade Willow Grove
At the request of many regular Warhammer 40K players our Willow Grove store will now be stocking the Malifaux miniatures game! As described on the Wyrd Games’ website:
Trigger-happy gunslingers, misguided Victorian science, hungry undead, and monsters hidden in every shadow; these are the terrors that will plague you in Malifaux. Are you willing to risk your soul for a chance at great wealth and power? Because it’s the only thing you have worth trading. In Malifaux, you lead your crew in the battle for control of The Breach, a dark portal to a world of limitless magic.
All aboard! Malifaux is the end of the line.
We will be stocking the rules manual as well as the box sets for each of the five main factions:
- Arcanists
- Guild
- Resurrectionists
- Neverborn
- Outcasts
If you would like to special order any specific figures, please stop by our Willow Grove store to place an order. For more information on game play and characters, visit the games’ official website here.
