Previously only available at a handful of small retailers, Cosplayflex™, a one-of-a-kind and extremely popular thermoplastic used by cosplayers and creators, is now available at Hobby Lobby stores nationwide. Cosplayflex is manufactured in Germany and distributed in the U.S. by NCA Vendor Member Goods for Geeks™. Goods for Geeks was founded in 2018 and is family owned and operated out of Fort Collins, Colorado, through their retail store, The Life of the Party™.
The move comes after many years of cosplayers and creators, who use Cosplayflex to create armor, props, costumes, and accessories of all kinds, found it hard to get their hands on Cosplayflex. Now, over 900 Hobby Lobby stores will carry the popular thermoplastic.
"As a long time cosplayer myself, I know how difficult it is to source the right product or material for my builds. There have been a lot of sleepless nights leading up to this point, but it's been an amazing experience bringing a product I love and trust to the general public through Hobby Lobby," said Brandon Lilly, Co-Owner of Goods for Geeks.
Cosplayflex is different from other thermoplastics on the market, known for its unique modeling and sculpting properties. In addition to its excellent modeling properties, Cosplayflex is also non toxic, easy to handle for beginners, can be painted and lacquered without primer, can be reactivated by heat anytime, and is reasonably priced.
"Cosplay is, in a nutshell, a creative way to showcase your love, passion, and connectedness with a character or fandom through personal creativity. Bringing Cosplayflex, a critical building component, to the general public through Hobby Lobby will allow more people to try their hand at cosplaying and cosmaking," said Marcia Lilly, Co-Owner of Goods for Geeks.
