Foam Core in Nagoya

Post by fromthefield » Fri Mar 15, 2013 3:44 am

I want to put together scenery to make a table like this: Image

But I need some foam core. Does anyone know the cheapest/best place to get foam core in Nagoya?

Don't know about cheapest, but Tokyu Hands in Hisayaodori has plenty to choose from.

I get mine at the local Kahma home center - they're everywhere. You can often find it at the 100 yen store, too.

Thanks guys. Okay cool there is a Kahma near my girlfriend's house. I'm going to try Seria later today too. I'll post my results. The Daiso near my house didn't really have foam core. I picked up some cork sheets but they are only 3mm thick so they are a little too floppy to use for terrain. Maybe I can use them for table mats though.

I get everything from Tokyu Hands (Sakae or Nagoya Station). They have different sizes, widths, and so on.

Cork makes nice rocks/rubble on bases and terrain. It probably won't go to waste.

I ended up going to Tokyu Hands and buying some there. They didn't have any at Seria, but I haven't checked Kahma yet. Tokyu Hands had a pretty good selection and it was reasonably cheap. Thanks again for the help everyone!
