I have never been to a Hobbytown USA, but they might carry IMex/Robogar stuff. I got mine at the Loose Caboose in Napa CA, its just a local shop run by some old guys who are into model trains, the place is great and they just started carrying 40k stuff and hosting games once a week.

got five guys painted today, could be a bit better but I'm going to move on to the next 5, after I get the rank and file finished I'll worry about touch ups.

Sorry, but this has to be said. MOLD LINES, HORRIBLE MOLD LINES.
You should really take your time removing them to make great models out of good ones

They all need BRIGHT green eyes, like dark angels green, with a highlight of scorpion green.

I was thinking that green eyes would look good, dont currently have the paints on hand, just a half used pot of goblin green.
mold lines, yep I really oughta do something about that, I don't really notice them too much till I take a long look at the pictures, thats why it helps to post these things here.
I'll show off some of my stormtroopers next time, you can kinda see the details a little better now they are primered black.

yep, got em off the GW US website. added chaos daggers for bayonets and gave the guys without masks some SMurf scout goggles, the powersword came from a SMurf biker serg and the mutated hand was made from bits taken off a chaos spawn spur, oh yeah, and the melta guns came from SMurf/Chaos SMurf melta guns, cut up and fitted over the top of the stormtrooper's hellgun. heey look what I got in the mail today, this guy cost me about $18 on ebay(shipping included!)and he arrived in my mailbox in less then a week, take that forgeworld! He is headed for my loyal IG army as I've already decided that my zombie guard does not get any Commissars, so I'm only sticking him in here to show him off.(I'm so excited, yay!)

it isn't my fault! its all this guy, he is the heretic responsible for this abomination. by turning from the grace of the Emperor and embracing the ruinous powers he has stolen the glorious dead from the side of the light and pulled them down into the horrible darkness. "Emperor, let your undeniable light burn on the misshapen and the twisted, so I can see them with pure sight, and purge them with righteous fire."

my top five zombie film favorites 1. Night of the Living Dead(Classic, zombie movie 101) 2. Dawn of the Dead (Original, best of the George A Romero zombie flicks.) 3. Dawn of the Dead (Remake, yep, modern zombie classic.) 4. Return of the Living Dead (The brains make the pain go away! Another classic.) 5. Dead and Breakfast (cowboy zombie musical.) of course there are many many more good ones I'm not mentioning,(some bad, which in my opinion is often good.)but it would take all night for me to sit here and think of them all.
