Johns Models
John’s Models is a long-established, independent hobby shop in Cantonment, Florida, serving scale modelers throughout the Pensacola and Emerald Coast region with an impressive selection of new, vintage, rare, and hard-to-find model kits and hobby supplies. Operated by longtime hobbyist John Struck, the shop has been in business for approximately three decades and is known for the kind of traditional, modeler-focused hobby-shop experience that has become increasingly difficult to find. John’s extensive and eclectic inventory covers aircraft, armor, automobiles, NASCAR, ships, military subjects, fantasy figures, science fiction, Gundam, and other modeling categories, with kits ranging from current releases to older collectibles acquired through the purchase and sale of private collections. The business is also associated with the manufacture of Ft. Duquesne figures and CAM Resin products, extending its involvement in the hobby beyond traditional retail. Known among visiting modelers for its knowledgeable service, unusual inventory, extensive paint and supply selection, and distinctly old-school “mom and pop” hobby-shop atmosphere, John’s Models has also served as a gathering place for local model clubs and even hosted armor-modeling events. Located at 1206 E. Kingsfield Road in Cantonment, John’s Models remains a destination for builders looking for everything from everyday modeling supplies to that unexpected vintage or obscure kit hidden on the shelf.
