Game stores in Kansas City?

I drove past Gates the other day while on my way to watch the Royals (what can I say, I'm a glutton for disappointment) and didn't see it. Now that I have some really good directions (thanks Dragonhelm), I'll have to check it out. It sounds like I'll stick with The Battlezone as my main shop, but Monty's is a closer drive.

Nothing really to add other than my subscription, I’ll be home soon.

Yeah, the place is really hard to find. If you go to the light past Gates, you've gone too far.

Thanks for all the suggestions and info. Unfortunately I'll only have one evening to shop and explore, but at least this should help me maximize my time there.

You don't happen to work for CarMax do you?

Nope. "What's in your wallet?"

Well, I haven't lived in Kansas in decades, but King's Crown in KC USED to be one of the nicest shops I've ever been in- clean, well stocked, well lit, and orderly with nice staff.

If that helps at all...

If you're flying in...

If you're flying in, I know two great places to go near the airport.

I work at a place called Friendly Frank's Comic Cavern. We specialize in comics, but we have a vast array of D20 material as well as Magic, and Yu Gi Oh. Its found about 4 miles south of the airport on the NW 64th St Exit. Make a right, and then we're in the back corner of the shopping center that'll be on your right. The Manager, Greg is a great guy who'll be glad to help you out. Just tell'em Eric sent you. Phone number is 816-746-4569.

Secondly, If you're into D&D Mini's or Magic, there's a great place call The Broken Lotus. There website is www.thebrokenlotus.com. They have one of the best singles collections for both games in the KC metro. Again, tell'em Eric sent you. Direction to their shop can be found on the website.

Hope this helps,

Oh that's right. You never did email me at work. Let's do lunch sometime.

Hmmm, I've never heard of Monte's; does anyone have a street address, phone number, web site, email, etc. for them? They sound like my kinda shop

Ah, are you guys still at that phone number? Its the same number I got from yahoo the other day but I get a message saying its out of service. (I hope that’s not true cause I don’t know of any other comic book stores close to my old home. I’m moving home soon and I would like to see what services you offer in regards to comics.)
