Warhammer — Local services in Frisco

Well, this is an interesting place. If you're looking for a general game store or if you're looking for one of those places where you go and do a craft for a few hours, this is also not that.

If you're into Warhammer then this is their brand store, and you know what they are selling there. They certainly have a better selection of Warhammer merchandise than any other physical store around here. But to be honest there have been multiple times where I hoped to find a hard-to-find set, and they never have it. So if you're in a hurry to get a set and it's a pretty common one, this is faster than waiting for their online store. That's really the only benefit I see to it though.

Caveats: I don't play Warhammer -- my sons do and other family friends do. I like the quality of the models, and I enjoy building and painting models, so I have purchased some for myself (a bunch of Eldar jet bikes and a Stormtalon gunship). So I know something of it, but I don't have a social interest in it. If I did there would be more reason for me to go to the store because they have a couple of tables set up with fancy terrain, and people gather there to play and to paint. So if that is something you are interested in the store probably has more value to...

Just to make it clear to any potential review readers, Preston Ridge Warhammer is not a general hobby shop or game/comic retailer. They're specifically tailored for Warhammer and Games Workshop products and little else. Though if you need high quality tools or plastic glue, they definitely have those too!

That out of the way, this is THE place to go for EVERYTHING Warhammer in the Plano/Frisco area. If you need any paint, models, books, advice, anything, the store manager Morgan is happy to help any way he can. Literally the example of customer service that makes the trouble of going to a brick and mortar store twice as worth it than just shopping online.

And if you're new to Warhammer or curious about the game/world, you should definitely stop in and explore the options! You can get a demo on how to paint and play for free, ask any questions you have, and get good advice from a very knowledgeable and personable manager. This is THE...

Have been with my wife. The manager was extremely creepy and kept following us around as we attempted to look at items in the store, and never talked to us. He kept acting like he wasn't following us around but it's hard to do that in such a small store with no other customers. My wife found this extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome. Also I swear this location is closed on so many days and at weird hours. Don't ever go around lunch time unless you want to wait around for 2 hours before you can get in the store. Also check the Facebook page to make sure the store isn't randomly closed for the 15th time that month. To give you an idea of how bad this store is, the last manager literally killed himself from stress. Go to Texas Toy Soldier, Madness Comics, or New World Gaming instead. They care about their customers and treat their...
