Great Toy Store. Fantastic selection of every type of toy you can imagine. They have educational, plastic models, remote control airplanes, boats drones, helicopters, all wheel drive vehicles. They have lots of kites, puzzles of all types, art supplies, electronic switchboard that teach how to make basic items. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Absolutely wonderful toy store. Small and cramped but with lots of options for kids big and small. Great RC accessibility and the gentleman who helped us was very patient and knowledgeable with all of our questions. You should definitely swing by this toy store if you ever have a chance! :)

What a great toy store! It has a bit of everything. We got a Gertie Ball for our granddaughter to play with for the week while we were in South Lake. We love supporting small businesses and the staff here were very nice. Their prices are competitive as well.

We visit this store constantly for the variety of things they have to offer. Service and staff are great. Shaun in Rc department is very knowledgeable and always helpful with all my Rc needs. We have purchased cars, trucks, boats and many accessories for our very large Rc fleet at this store. My kids enjoy the store as well.

Toy Maniacs is part of the family tradition of our week in Tahoe. We never miss a visit and as the kiddos grow up they still find a treasure. They have a little bit of everything! The customer service is great and free wrapping cant be beat!! Plan to order online from them at Christmas.

There’s a new guy working at the RC part of the store who although claiming to be an honored RC guru, doesn’t understand (or want to) about different battery chemistry’s, and what’s compatible with what you have. After a damaging causing crash, he promised to order the correct parts and give me a call ASAP. Well, it’s been 2 weeks now, no call and my kids car just sits there. On top of that, he lied to us, and then pulled a “trump” style coverup. I’ll tolerate that from a president, but not from the toy store...Don’t ask him for advice, because you’ll get some, it’s just that it’s probably not correct.

Best stop for all your R/C needs in the Tahoe area. If you need replacement parts for your r/c truck, or helicopters, planes these guys have a decent selection of parts on hand to help you get back up and running. If you cant make it to Reno for your parts these guys are the next best bet.

Customer service in this place is horrible! Went in with a new racing drone and this guy had no idea about them and he runs a hobby store?!?! He kept telling me that the battery goes on the top and it can’t go on the bottom of the drone. After showing him pics he blew me off and acted so rude when all I was doing was trying to buy items to get my drone going. Get real racing drones and get rid of the toys. This place isn’t a hobby shop. If you see the guy with long hair that’s balding run!! I ended up leaving with more questions then I walked in with. He had such an attitude and all I wanted was to buy stuff for my drone. This place is a joke and don’t go in with questions unless they sell it and your drones 5 years old. Seem like they only have old R.C. stuff. These people need to get with the times and set out of 2010. Looks like they haven’t dusted since 2010

Their hours allow you to get hooked up after work or even on Sunday!If youre here for the weekend and need some games or kites or some other thing to enjoy this area, or are a local, dont waste time running around, Toy Maniacs has most everything you need for FUN!

Im sure this is a great for toys and things of that nature .. claiming to be a hobby shop and literally know nothing about nitro rc cars is wild. the supossed rc guy wasnt in yesterday so i had to wait to talk with him . finally getting around to it the guy claims to know nothing about modern rc cars .You did nothing but waste my time and talk over me i couldnt even get out the problem i was having before the guy was spouting 100 different solutions that had nothing to do with what i was talking about... . read up on modern stuff guys.. people from this day and age will have modern questions .
