I am fortunate to be well served by physical shops.
First of there's Acme in Llandudno that has a lot of FoW, plus all the usual 28mm plastics, Bolt Action, fantasy stuff and board games. They also run lots of club nights for local teenage gamers..
Then there is a wonderful model shop in Porthmadog called er... Porthmadog Models.
And Mona Models in (I shit you not) Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch..
Oh, an Austin's Models in Bangor High Street though that's an odd place selling mainly CCGs these days - but does have Vallejo.

Re: Best Shop
Ditto - some Hinchliffe Napoleonic Highlander officers. Bought three (for some strange reason) and managed to lose two of them walking back to Wimbledon railway station.

Re: Best Shop
my first metal figures were what i thought were Hinchliffe AWI Grenadiers but i think were actually fusiliers from the Modellers Halt in Redcar. Only bought 2 and that was my AWI collection until about 2010 when i went for 6mm - decided i didnt like them - and then finally for 10mm. Still painting.....
