About Us

Blue Rune Hobby and Games

Blue Rune Hobby and Games is a family-owned hobby store based in Winter Garden, Florida. We are currently operating online while our new physical retail location prepares to open in  2026, and we’re laying the foundations for a community-focused hobby space built by long-time enthusiasts.

I originally founded Blue Rune Hobby and Games in 2019 as a small resale operation focused on Warhammer and other collectables. As the business steadily grew, I formally registered the company in November of 2023, laying the groundwork for the full retail brand and community-focused store we’re building today.

This store is the culmination of a lifelong passion for the Warhammer hobby. I’ve been building, painting, and collecting since the mid-90s, and grew up immersed in worlds like Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings. Over the years I’ve played games such as X-Wing, collected Pokémon and Star Wars cards, dabbled in Magic: The Gathering during college, and spent countless hours as an avid World of Warcraft player. I also love traveling and competing at major hobby conventions like Adepticon, NOVA, and the Las Vegas Open, as well as regional events such as the Michigan GT and Orlando Quest Con. Blue Rune Hobby and Games is my chance to bring that excitement, creativity, and community spirit home.

My goal is simple:
Create a store with great stock, great prices, and a trustworthy, personal connection with every customer.

Right now, we specialize in:

  • Games Workshop products
  • Citadel paints and hobby tools
  • Special orders for in-stock GW items
  • Fast, reliable shipping across the U.S.

As we grow, we plan to expand into:

  • Star Wars Legion
  • Shatterpoint
  • Malifaux
  • Board games
  • CCGs including Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Magic: The Gathering
  • And additional product lines based on community demand

Blue Rune Hobby and Games is built for hobbyists, by a hobbyist with more than 30 years of experience in the tabletop world. Whether you're a collector, painter, gamer, or someone returning to the hobby after years away, this store exists to support your journey with transparency, consistency, and real enthusiasm.

Note: Blue Rune Hobby and Games is currently in a transitional phase while we prepare our new physical retail location scheduled for 2026. We continue to offer online sales and arranged local pickup during this period.

Thank you for being part of the beginning of this adventure. Our physical storefront is coming, our online presence is growing, and the community we’re building means everything.
