The pricing here however is usually 10 dollars more but it makes it worth it due to the huge selection of cars here and your supporting a local business . But sometimes they have sales on cars which are 10 dollars less then hobby lobby. i felt like a little kid at a candy store here. The paint selection is also great finding exactly what I needed. The service here is amazing since I didn't feel dumb or guilty about asking a question here compared to hobby lobby.

This place gets everything right. The selection is fantastic, the shop is clean and well organized, and it actually feels like a space designed for players, not just transactions. You can tell immediately that this isn't just a store, it's a community hub. What really sets it apart is the people. The staff are knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely care about the players walking through the door. That's not something you can fake, and it shows in how the community shows up. Whether you're brand new to TCGs or deep in the hobby, you feel like you belong there. They also do a phenomenal job supporting events and keeping the scene active. There's always something going on, and it creates that energy that great local game stores used to have, but a lot of places have lost. If you're anywhere near Simi Valley and into trading cards, this place isn't just worth checking out, it's worth going out of your way for. Absolute gem.

I love love Hobby Lobby, but they have a manager there that needs some serious management training…read more She is going to get them a law suit if she does not correct her ways, she is always up front & her name starts with a "V". I heard her say some stupid stuff for a manager, just after the Covid scare, "where is everyone getting their money from", because a Mexican family was buying a lot decorations for a party!. On another occasion during the day & the lines were long", doesn't anyone work anymore!. Just yesterday I had a $45 order, all I had was a hundred on me, the cashier asked if I had something smaller, I did not, she called "V" over & she asked the same question, I said NO, sorry. She said I would end up with a bunch of $1's, I said no problem, she came back with like 50 $1's & some $5's - she told the cashier, the RULE is you have to use the $1's first. Well the cashier did not listen to her & gave me $5's. As I was walking out, I swear she went into a victory dance. (Not knowing I got $5's instead of $1's) I am contacting corporate - that was the final straw. Really "Rule", she sounded stupid, that's the RULE. Imagine a manger behaving that way.

They are always fully stocked with the largest RC cars and trucks and almost always have every color option available. The staff is knowledgeable and genuinely kind especially Dusten who is always a pleasure to work with. I also love that they rescued a cat who now freely roams the store and greets customers. Shopping at Marty's is never just a purchase it is an experience.

If you've ever thought about getting into Warhammer but felt nervous walking into a hobby shop --…read moreTHIS is the place to start. For years I wanted to dive into tabletop Warhammer, but I didn't have friends who played and I'm naturally a little shy in situations like that. It honestly took me a long time to finally walk through the door at the Thousand Oaks Games Workshop... and I'm so glad I did. The owner, Jordan, is truly one of the kindest and most welcoming people you'll meet. He clearly loves the hobby and genuinely cares about making sure everyone has a great experience, whether you're brand new or a longtime player. The store itself is fantastic. They have dedicated demo stations where you can: * learn how to play the game * learn how to paint your first miniatures That alone makes getting started way less intimidating. The selection is excellent too, including a full range of Citadel paints. And if there's ever something they don't have in stock, there's an in-store ordering station where you can get exactly what you need directly from Games Workshop. They also have two large terrain tables set up for hobby meetups and games, and there's clearly a strong community forming around the shop. Honestly, this place is special. If you're on the fence about starting Warhammer like I was, just stop in and say hello. Jordan and the team will have you hooked in no time. Highly recommend!

Nearly 20 years later...and spacemarine 2...Im back. To see an official Games Workshop close to where I live i had to come in. Boy does it bring me back. So about the store...the biggest and most important thing about GWS is the person who is there for you. Does he like what he does, is he passionate and the skills and knowledge behind that person. In comes Jordan. He is knowledgeable...he loves what he does. That man and his pure enthusiasm alone makes this shop. Everything else makes this place more than great. He helped me with picking the right paints and proceeded to help me an experienced painter with my technique. I can attest to going in and supporting him and this store. He is a rare breed of GWS staff everyone should at least come and visit the place and him.

We had such a disappointing experience here. My husband took my daughter on a date to Sky Zone, and…read morethey had one simple plan afterward--to stop by a card shop, spend $50, and come home to open everything together. Something fun and special. They walked into this shop, and the man working there immediately barked at my daughter that she wasn't allowed in without shoes. To be clear, she had just come from Sky Zone Thousand Oaks and was still wearing her gripper socks, with her shoes literally in her hand. So yes, totally fair rule--but the delivery was unnecessary. Instead of just kindly asking her to put her shoes on, he was abrupt and harsh enough that she looked like she was about to cry. That was enough for them--they turned around and left without buying anything. It's a shame, because places like this should be encouraging kids to enjoy the hobby, not making them feel unwelcome over something that could have been handled in two seconds with a little kindness. We'll be taking our business somewhere that actually makes the experience fun.
