A veg-o-magic with 37 LED’s and a litter of 8 German Sheppard puppies?

Just funnin’ I am sure it will be great.  They have a very good reputation in the O gauge community and seem to be gaining more customers with each new announcement.  

We have a couple of their buildings and lighted billboard on our club layout.

Good products at a very reasonable price - what’s not to like?

Is Menards going to make an O scale Menards store?

They did, a few years ago, however it was not in the strictest sense scale. They made this about the time they were getting into making O gauge rolling stock and not contracting with Lionel. I have one, it’s animated, is illuminated and plays the Menards jingle.

I know they did. It was when they were made by Woodland Scenis but it wasn’t really a Menards store. It was a hardware store that had Menards name on it. Not even close to the same thing

I don't think it is/was made by Woodland Scenic's.

This is the one you are talking about.  It's a version of Woodland Scenics' Harrison's Hardware:

They also made a similar garden center version of the same size.  Both of these are big and heavy.  There is nothing else like these.

Yep, these two are what I think of when someone says "Menards Store" and not the Woodland Scenics one.
