I went by there to take a look. Went towards the back to ask a question about RC and drone while employee was soldering iron a battery wires together. I was trying to find out more about the industry of repairing RC. The guy was rude. Didnt seem to give much information. Gave me the cold shoulder. After just spending no more the 5mins in the store. I decided to leave. Will not go back to this store again.
If you are looking for anything RC related, this is the place to go. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable.
First time patronizing this store. Wandered around a bit to check it out. Not bad.If you are looking for model train stuff (like me), they have a great selection of products on the second level. There is also a wide variety of model planes, cars, and military vehicles.They also cater to RC vehicle enthusiasts, and other hobbyists.They even had a small selection of board games and toys. Even a few D&D 5E books.A little out of the way for me, but worth the trek.
Owner Bruce Boyd failed to return two phone calls to discuss a rookie mistake one of his sales people made. Obviously this guy does not believe in service after the sale. If you want accountability avoid the Mockingbird location and take your money to the Plano Hobby Town. Much better service and Boyd does NOT own that one.
Do not bring your car in for repairs they will break your car burn out parts and then tell you to call the major companies to fix it when theres nothing wrong with it I bring my car home after being told that it was blown and it works perfectly fine I bring my car there in one piece bring it away from there and pieces and burnt parts I bring it home and everything works fine I drove it into the shop and bring it home broken I had to fix it myself I really needed their help I wasnt feeling too good after some leg surgery and I was hoping they would fix it for me but they didnt they made my car worth it and I have to spend more money to get a connector now thanks guy for nothing never Ill come into that store I rather leave my car with a stranger then to leave it there crazy thing my friend just spent 3000$ in a week and they told him to he needed a engine turn out he didnt need one then when we ask them will since we dont need it can we get return it he offered store credit they always do this be aware of with these guys
Great customer service. Im really and truly glad I visited this store today. It was so delightful to interact with Mr. John, Mr. Marcus and Mrs. Brianna on today. This experience has made me a customer for life.
Great place to shop for models, paints, r.c.cars & planes, the staff is friendly and helpful. they have a great inventory of kits and accessories. nice prices.
Its like a dream come true for a big kid! They have the best toys and accessories for all your big kid needs
Allways nice to visit a local hobbytown. Nice, helpful folks 👍
Very helpful. Tons of trucks to choose from. Parts to fix whatever you break on any brand they carry.
As a local guide of Dallas, Texas, I have concluded that HobbyTown USA is less of a town and more of a big toy store. Honestly it’s unless your into remote controlled cars or model cars HobbyTown USA has a knick knack every now and then that you may pickup and say, “that’s cool,” which is immediately followed up by you setting the object down. The staff is the highlight at the time of my entering they were engaged in a civil argument of which rockstar would win in a fight. Everyone who works there seems to be a nice person. A cool toy store with a great, friendly staff, is HobbyTown USA.
They are usually friendly and knowledgeable in every hobby shop but this one is the best I have been to. Not sure if its because they have a younger team. It works either way.
Very nice place .they have allot interesting stuff.
Great customer service, and good selection of products
They usually have what Im looking for, friendly staff and knowledgeable about product.
Great toy store. Nice used Lionel trains. Thanks Charlie for showing Nathaniel and I around.
Awesome and attentive people hadnt been there since they were off walnut ln. pretty keen layout as well
Omg be careful going in here. You may never want to leave lol. Had the best experience first time going in. Ill add photos when I get her finished.
I am in this shop about once per week. (My wife is not thrilled by this lol) The staff is very knowledgeable and very professional. They have the largest stock of R/C vehicles and parts that I have ever seen, and the only time a part Ive needed wasnt in stock, they gave me suggestions for other parts I can use as well as told me when the part I wanted would be in stock. They even had adapters to upgrade the cheap R/C car I bought online 10 years ago! This is an excellent store and I will continue to come here for all of my R/C upgrades and repairs.
Kids best dreams come true here.Rockets, race cars, you name it. These guys have the widest selection in town.
Great store. Awesome selection of model kits. They also have a huge amount of model trains, games and RC stuff. Something for everyone!
The one on Mockingbird is great. The people are friendly and very helpful.
Wow you sure could have a lot of fun in this place. I was looking for some
Great place, lots of variety. Nice rc car selection.
Awesome shop! Staff is helpful and they have plenty a great selection!

Great place. They have all rc stuff u need
Great Hobby Store. Lots of cool stuffNO DRONE PRODUCTS TO SPEAK OF THEY ONLY CARY ONE LINE OR BRAND OF DRONES in a little glass case off to the side.
I loved the red haired cashier there, super sweet and really nice! Awesome selection of Gundams and RC Cars as well! 👌
By far the best place Ive been to in years.. I admit im already addicted to the love of all types of hobbies covered in this atmosphere. From the staff to the customers.. Friendliest people ive met in the triple D/Dallas-Fort worth area.. I absolutely love it here!!
I love this store.i wish I owned it.but then nothing would never get sold.
Great place for RC toys and parts.
People in the store are so nice and conprensive theh have everything you need there 100% recomend the people that helped me last week they are the best at their job
Great place to look for new hobbies
Love shopping here. Big Kid Toy store. Tons of Traxxas and Tamiya and Arrma products.Big Jon B is always looking out to help customers find the right RC or educate them on how to make it better.
HobbyTown is a really awesome place to shop for any model, remote control, train, and any other types of hobby things you can imagine. The people who work there are extremely helpful they gave great service and I would recommend checking out the store to anybody whether it be a kid or adult.
Pretty Nifty store! Great gift ideas for all ages! Staff was very helpful and friendly!
Great prices! We had a blast
Hoping that the radio shack section would be bigger, but its still a great hobby shop I will visit again.
So many employees deliberately not wearing masks or not wearing them properly. However, the one employee wearing his mask properly was very kind and helpful.
After attempting to help our son figure out an issue with his RC car for an hour I decide to call and see if anyone was willing to help me over the phone. Nate picked up with his friendly voice and was kind enough to walk us through trouble shooting. It ended up being a battery issue. Going in tomorrow to buy the right one, but was extremely impressed with the customer service and willingness to help!
Very good selection
Its my first time visiting this kind of hobby store and Im quite impressed. They have really good selection. We end up getting an Arrma RC (Senton). Great customer service too!
Awesome place for Rc hobby par
Very helpful in finding parts needed.
Had everything I needed and more
Best place in the world for RC trucks, RC planes RC hilicopters, RC boats, trains and all of the rest of the hobby stuff
One of the best hobby shops in the DFW!
Big al costumer service was terrible. He told me that he laughs at people like me, dont like to fix your own rc cars kinda people. Simply unacceptable performance on his behalf. I dont care for his attitude towards my hobby. Thank you.liborio Mendoza wrote this.
Great service and one of the best places to for rc parts. If they dont have it, they can order it for you.
John was very helpful and got me squared away with what I needed
Great team of RC experts that are always willing to help & go above the call of duty to ensure my son gets the parts & repairs he needs fast! This is my favorite Hobbytown, they really take care of us.
This place is exciting. Have everything possible. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Kinda hard to leave with money in your wallet because you just want to buy every single thing.
Friendly staff. Very helpful and took time answering my questions about RC vehicles.
A lot of stuff they are amazing
I love coming to this place they have all kinds of games, models, tools and paints for all your hobby needs. The staff is super nice and are really eager to help you find what youre looking for.
I will never shop here again. Staff too busy talking to each other and friends about things unrelated to business. 30 minutes in the store and not one can shut up long enough to open a locked cabinet so they could actually sell something.Edit : Follow up to reply.Of course I asked for assistance, however they were too involved talking to each other and pointed to see another that was just as busy talking about everything but store business. I will not spend anymore of my money here, Amazon will be my go to place now. Plano store is great. Mockingbird location is horrible.
Theyre a wonderful group of people that know RCs.
Everyone in this store is friendly and willing to help. Will be back time and time again
Went into Hobbytown and was assisted by a young lady named Summer who was very polite and knowledgeable it was a pleasure and will expect her to assist me next visit
Good collection of gunpla!
Couldnt help me out with my cheap rc. Disappointing.
Awesome and down to earth customer service. Good dude to buy from and... Arrma parts support👍
Great people, give you lots of advice and very respectful
Me and my husband did not want to leave. This store has everything for almost any hobby. Great staff as well. Nice fun environment.
Always helpful and friendly.
Not alot of model train accessories
Bring your parents, bring your kids, bring your grandkids, bring the neighbors, great place spent a few hours
Nice friendly environment and good customer service.
They helped out with the parts
A well stocked RC store!
Lots of stuff for the hobbyist. Didnt have what I wanted but didnt think they would either. The people there were helpful and polite!
Because it carries everything that I love to do. The staff is extremely helpful and pleasant to deal with
Great source of anything hobby related.
Lots of variety, friendly and helpful staff!!
Went in for a spur gear.... Ended up buying a bunch more. The crew was extra knowledgeable and really knew the product well. Great bunch a guys and I highly recommend this place.
Nice staff, good stock.
Hobbytown is one of the last few hobby shops left. It would be nice to see the store inventory online vs having to go into the store. I usually find what Im looking for and the prices are pretty competitive. Not the lowest, but Ill support my local hobby shop.
Awesome staff and reasonable prices
Hobby shops are a disappearing breed and Im glad theyre still rockin n rollin.However I wish they could figure out in this era of covid19 how to do curb-side pickup.I have found that too many times I ended up ordering from out of state shops because I just didnt want to risk going into the store. I would be willing to even pay a reasonable fee for the service.
I love the selection of products and the customer service is top notch. I would recommend everyone to come here to capture their inner child again
The staff are super friendly and helpful and they always have what we need for modeling and the second floor is very cool as well
I go there once a week they always have a great selection and great staff
I called to make sure they had the specific item I wanted. Man on the phone assured me they had them and plenty of them. I get there and the person at the front was like “I don’t think so” then the guy I talked to came over and made a big deal of “oh man I thought you mean the new model”. No apology nothing. I drove 20 miles to get here and couldn’t even say they were sorry and then tried to blame it on me. Thanks for making me never want to do business with you.
Good selection great service decent prices
I love it and it’s so awesome to see all the models in there and I been there day after day because it’s so amazing. I really recommend it to anyone with a interest of models but overall the staff is really nice and they are good at helping out. Thanks hobby town for being really helpful and always there to answer questions
Got my new Grex airbrush here to redo my F7 B unit to Texas and Pacific Eagle blue and Grey.
They are the best!!
Went there looking for airsoft equipment and the staff was very helpful in finding what we needed. I came in with a large group and they were patient and friendly in their service. Great people!
I love Rc Cars.
My husbands favorite store! Two stories of hobbies galore! We love all of the people that work there. It seems as though each person specializes in some area. Plus if they dont know the answer to a question they are so good to learn with you. We drive about 200 miles just to go here! And for me, a very nice nail salon right next door!
