At the Show - Quarter-Scale

This week, it is with great pleasure that we share the work of two long-time Good Sam dealers who create in quarter-scale.

Grandt Line Products designs quarter-scale kits with lots of character, whimsy and detail. The company also makes mini dollhouse kits for 1-inch scale dollhouses, "pothead" mini kits, and other cool stuff. Phyllis Nishimori and her sister Liz Aduan have been dealers at Good Sam for thirteen years. www.grandtline.com
