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 :)

She had a lot of customers, but she took the time to greet everyone and and had the cutest interaction with a young kid super excited to buy some cards. You can tell Mandy loves what she does and her positivity is infectious. The store has an amazing selection and I will definitely be back. Couldn't recommend this store more for all of your table top gaming needs or even just a friendly chat.

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.

This small business hobby shop is great if you are into "old timey" trains and collectible…read more"matchbox/hot wheel" sized automobiles that are all quite vintage. 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".

Good selection of military models from the top kit manufacturers…read more Very good selection of paints and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about the hobby. 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.

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.

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.

They claim to have the biggest board game collection around, and I believe them. I have bought major purchases like Gloomhaven but also lesser know titles like War Chest. My friends and I were also able to to use their space to play a mini Magic draft after buying packs from them (pre-Covid). Its just a cool spot. BTW, you can use an elevator on the ground level to get in the store if you call them for assistance. If you are into board and card games, this is the store for you.

This was a really cool store! It was clean, the displays were great and there was a HUGE variety of different games, materials for painting game pieces and nice areas for playing games. As well as snacks available if you are there playing. There were a few people engaged in a game. Lots of cool games depending on your hobby or interest. We didn't end up purchasing anything on this visit. But is was a great store. Not to mention that I like seeing people in community. Play a game- put down your phone and make some friends. Love this mom.

A Cox technician came to check our router and replace a WiFi Pod if it wasn't working. The…read moretechnician was completely unprepared when he arrived and knew nothing about replacing the pod. He told us to call and schedule another appointment for a replacement pod (even though when we called, we clearly explained the pod seemed to be the issue) or visit a nearby Cox store. I just returned from the Lincoln RI store to replace a non working Panoramic WiFi Pod 2.0 devise. The devise was only few months old. The clerk after a short conversation (telling me the technician didn't tell me to pick up a replacement) he gave me a replacement Pod and told me there should be a charge because it has a 30 day warranty. When I returned home and opened the package and read the directions to install/activate. Those directions explicitly stated the devise had a 1 year warranty. The clerk was a male, early 30s(?) with a receding hairline. Cox may have outdone themselves today. First they sent a technician unprepared to deal with the issue we described when calling for service, Then, at their store, that clerk told me the technician never said to go to a store to have the pod replaced and followed that up with telling me the devise had a 30 day warranty when the printed directions clearly stated a 1 year warranty. If you ever need to define the word incompetent, try substituting the word Cox.
