    Default GW Hobby Center - Franklin Mills - Philadelphia

    I just though I'd throw this out there...

    GW Franklin Mills will be participating the in the nation wide [URL="http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/article.jsp?aId=700018a"]Armies on Parade[/URL]. I'll be there with my Space Marines, debuting them as their new chapter.

    It was my understanding that GW Franklin Mills was closing?

    I don't get down to Franklin Mills all to often, but I heard nothing of this.

    They are listed as being a participant for Armies on Parade so even if this is the case they will be open for the event.

    I've had a few conversations with the Franklin Mills staff about an 'additional' store opening on the other side of the city. West Chester happens to be as 'other side' as you can get from Franklin Mills. You may have your information confused. I think we're getting a second GW store not a relocated one. I hope!

    The West Chester Store would be over an hour from Franklin Mill and the Echelon (Voorhees, NJ) location is about 20-25 minutes away from the Mills. I can't see them closing the Mills and relocating that far away because I've seen the amount of kids buying and playing in the store.

    Yea, the guys up at Franklin Mills said they are closing come September. The new store in West Chester is opening at the end of august or beginning of Sept (im guessing Sept), and another new store opening in November.

    Glad theres one opening in West Chester. Wish there were some game groups/people for me to play against closer to Schwenksville, tho.

    You're not all to far from me. You're even closer to where I work, Perkasie.

    Do you know where the other store will be opening?
