This is a bummer, for sure. They were the most well-rounded, well-stocked hobby shop in the area. Now we're left with:
HobbyTown (Delafield) - Delafield isn't bad, but Rocketry selection is only Estes, and it's waaaay out there. Somewhat limited motor selection.
HobbyTown WA - Meh.
Model Empire - Great for plastic models, but rocketry isn't great - estes kits only, and very limited motor selection.
Hobby Lobby - they're good for only one thing, the 40% off coupon on 29 mm BP motors. Rocketry selection is lousy.
Michaels - Hardly worth mentioning, even lousier rocketry selection than HL.
Happy Hobby - Every time I go there, it gets weirder.
Hiawatha - The best remaining of the bunch, IMHO. They carry the complete line of Estes motors, and now discount motors D and up, 15-20%.
