Best model shop I've ever been to!…read more This place is absolutely bursting with amazing well-priced mech kits and products for hobbyists. If you're looking for gundam, historical model kits, Warhammer, ttrpg minis or just something cool: this is the place to go! I found a kit that has been sold out online for months- total score!! Staff was very kind and helpful. It's a small shop but has great vibes and if you need help finding things- just ask! The entrance is a bit confusing to find; it's through the shared doors in the plaza and up the short set of stairs. Ample Free parking in the area :)

On 12/06/2018 I had a family member in the surgical center just a mile down the road and had a…read morecouple hours to kill while I waited for her procedure to be completed. I walked into Hometown Collectibles in Emerald Square Mall. As I walked into the store I greeted the guy working behind the he said hi and I proceeded to look through the store. About 10 minutes later an older man (who I discovered later was one of the owners) walks in and starts to loudly berate the counter worker about a person wandering around the store (me) and he wasn't watching me well enough. I have been collecting comics for many years and in the back of the store I noticed a huge stock of comic books, but they are separated from the customers by display counters so there is no way for me to look through or purchase any of them. The owner came over to me pretty much to see what I was doing in his store and I asked about how he sells the comics. He told me a story about how he sold some comics at a low price and that purchaser's friend came in to also buy comics and "bragged" about getting a good deal. The owner does not sell out of the store anymore because he doesn't think he can get every penny he can and will only sell graded books online. I highly suggest you stay clear of this place. The owner does not care about making happy customers only about how much money he can get out of you. The prices are unrealistically high, the greed factor is very strong with this establishment. The owner will not even sell to you unless he is confident he has gotten your very last dollar. The owner treats both his employees and customers with a great deal of contempt.

I came here looking for Die-Cast Cars, which unfortunately they did not have. However I was…read moreimpressed by there selection in other categories, such as model planes, RC cars, Dioramas for trains, and a sizeable model kit section for Pokemon or Gundam. The service was very good, very busy inside but the staff knew their selection quite well and even offered some suggestions of places that may carry what I was looking for. The prices are reasonable as well. I can't speak on the things besides gundam, but the gundam were priced nearly the same as online retailers after shipping. A nice store that I would visit again for any hobbyist needs.

All the products are new in boxes. The man behind the counter was not overly friendly but he seemed busy working on an order or some inventory. It seems like most of his business is either locals or people that call in to order a part that they need for their hobby. As for a hobby shop, it is really not hobbies in the traditional sense where they are quite limited in the variety of things they carry. I can't really comment on the prices of the goods because it is more of "if you need it, you'll pay what it costs".

Lots of models for sale and they can help you decide what genre of the hobby best fits your needs. I flipping love that the military items have their own room in the back. They also have a decent stock of photo etch and other add ons for your model. This really is a one stop shop. No need to go anywhere else. The military kits are moderately priced and the selection is good but could be better.

Initially I loved this place, it was a LITTLE more than the competitors but it was in a mall and I…read moreget you have to keep the lights on, etc.. so it wasn't a bad experience as much as I knew I wasn't going there to get a deal. Kids in the store were nice, cool little eclectic blend of employees, had WAY more Manga then I was into but a solid back selection too and I'd almost always find at least one or two things you didn't know existed. Overall was great for an every 10 weeks trip or so... ( here comes the but...) That being said, August of last year they sold my son a broke in the box General Grievous, big 200 buck one, he was ECSTATIC to buy it but they didn't disclose it was broken, the arm was glued, it wasn't " working" ( Mass law that you can't sell something you know is broke.. we don't have an As-Is law that permits that) and unfortunately he didn't open the box until we got in. I took pictures instantly and we returned to the store immediately and the manager was " going to contact us".. guys name was Phil ( he and his whole staff have been fired since, I'm guessing they were stealing or doing something shady). Told that we broke it ( um... WHEN would we have had time to?!?) and he proceeded to lie to the credit card company as well. Long story short, we're taking them to small claims court and including treble damages because of the intent to deceive, the amount of my time he wasted over what I'm sure they KNEW was their own scam since the arm was super glued... etc etc... It's good that Phil has been fired and good that we're going to get our money back but it's just garbage that ANYONE would try to pull that stunt on a 12 year old autistic kid. Just complete scumbaggery. Ok so in short: Good selection. Ok prices. Really bad human beings. Also, apparently don't know Mass General Laws... probably should learn those guys.. P.S. I'd settle for a refund and an apology from the owner/manager who shows up at court next week. I'd probably change the review to reflect this as it wasn't the owners fault or current management but they've had a ton of time to reach out on this one and haven't. Doesn't help that they tried to say they have " experts" who claim we broke it... maybe the business is seedy, I don't know, I just know they tried to rob a kid who cleaned up an awful lot of dog poop to save that money up..

You are much better off going on eBay or somewhere else to find collectibles than here. The store is run by absolutely incompetent people that are not helpful and very rude. Dan has absolutely zero knowledge of any collectibles or what they are worth and is a huge waste of time to talk to you as well. I could name at least five other decent collectible stores in the state of Massachusetts that would outdo this place in a heartbeat. A bunch of amateurs run this place and I will not be doing business with them again. Once again, save your money and look on eBay or other collectible stores in the area, but certainly don't give these guys another minute of your time.

With a good mix of unique and popular finds there's something for almost anyone. The staff are pleasant and accommodating. And if they don't have it will try to recommend where to get it. And the pricing is very reasonable! Must check it out. Not to mention the hobby side is excellent too from a great selection of movie inspired vehicles to cars and trucks. Plenty of models to start or in my case restart my hobby interests. Just picked up a starter model airplane for my kiddo there. Good selection as well of military vehicles from multiple eras. Something to check out!

What a jerk! I recently saw some puzzles on Facebook yardsale posted by the store owner. I wrote to…read moreinquire about buying multiple. He wrote back and said So very sorry but just got home. We had a family emergency this morning after we spoke and it affected our entire day. Will followup tomorrow after we open at 12 noon. Again my apologies. The next day He sent me photos of the ones available. Mind you for Facebook yardsale they were overpriced, usually they're $5-8 used, but I understand the cost of a physical business. Before I wrote back I needed to check which ones I already had or had completed, but before I could do so had a personal emergency that prevented me from writing back to the message right away, which he should have understood could happen based on his own message. He wrote the next day, any interested, then I just get a message that says "There is no common courtesy these days..." Meanwhile on my end I'm handicapped from a recent spinal neck surgery going through a medical emergency and I come back and find this rude message when I went to write back a few days later about the puzzles. Had actually planned to buy all but one but this guy's snarky rude remark definitely does not make me want to get the ride over to do business with him and his overpriced puzzles. What a absolute jerk who obviously does know how to offer good customer service. Started off strong only to be an utter disgusting disappointment of a business. Learn how to talk to people and treat them with respect. You never know what someone else has going on in their life.
