There aren't many shops left in NY AFAIK. I've been to Image Anime which, despite its title, has a pretty good selection of Japanese kits (no domestics) and rims. Thay are on 30th St. off 6th Ave. Jan's Hobby Shop, if its still around, was pretty good. I think its on 74th St. and York Ave. in upper Manhattan.

If you're inclined to do a road trip to Long Island, try Bay Shore Hobbies in Bay Shore - it's a trek from NYC for sure, but he has LOTS of stuff, paints, accessories, decals, photoetched parts, both domestic and imported kits, diecasts, magazines, books, etc. Whenever I get to go to NY I try to stop out there.

Hope that helps some.

I think imageanime is the best place to shop. The price is fair and it's in the middle of the town. There are some shop in queens too. If you want the address, PM me.
