Generally their shipping is quite fast. In saying that in the past when an item was slow to ship and they could not complete the entire order they did not charge me shipping which was unexpected, but a nice touch I thought. However, their products always arrive well packaged. Never have I had a product damaged when shipped by Hiawatha Hobbies. I absolutely recommend Hiawatha Hobbies and will continue to use them going forward. They are a great stop for model railroaders.

Bobby, the guy that runs the shop is just one of the most memorable gents I have in my long list of memories from the good old days. Well, MRGRRR grew up, got a job, made some money and now is looking to give something back by making board games and card games for the next generation. I hope that I meet those customers at Chimeras that make a promise to themselves to never lose their imagination. Thanks for all the memories Bobby. I still have the black PUNISHER Marvel T shirt I bought about 30 years ago. Remember when I wore that to your Magic the Gathering tournaments and won nearly all of them? Good times, my friend.

While we were there, we noticed a line forming nearby and decided to check it out. To our surprise (and my granddaughter's absolute excitement), it was HobbyTown doing a NeeDoh drop at 10am! The line kept growing and at 28 degrees we were freezing, but there was no way we were giving up our spot. Thankfully, the owner opened a little early and everything was very well organized. They limited purchases to two per person, and since we were third in line, we had time to pick exactly what we wanted. Such kind owners and a great experience overall. We'll definitely be back to explore the rest of the store.
