Very nice experience and love the place, would recommend it to little children as well
Great support for local gaming tournaments! Donated a lot of prize support. Were from Colorado and it was really cool to see the local support yall have.
The employee was very knowledgeable about R/C but looked down on me. Even caught this gentleman making rude gestures to another employee about me
Helpful. Nice but like everywhere else still out of another of products.
When I come to wichita I always stop there .always great service.they know there stuff.i wish this place was in johnson county.
I just recently heard of this place and I am glad I went. There is a lot of models to choose from and they are priced very well. The staff was super knowledgeable and very helpful. I will be recommending this place in the future.
I thought it was great, I didnt spend a lot of time there but its a super open and fun place
Ken, Nash, Steve, Shawn are the best. They have treated me so well for a long time this is the only hobby store you should be going to. If I could give more than five stars I would!!!
Great prices and wonderful service is what youll get at Hobby Town!
I love this place. They are very helpful and explain things until you understand. They are very knowledgeable.
This place is outstanding! We went in for a model train set, and found a perfect one. Great selection of all kinds of stuff though, almost like an original toy store. High quality collectors items, wide selection to choose from, and great customer service! We will definitely be back!
Great selection. Good prices. Helpful staff.
I thought it was expensive and they stared at me thinking I was stealing something
They have a wide selection over eight categories of hobbyism, so they live well up to their name. The employees are sprightly and witty, but at the same time knowledgeable and useful. Fun place, good experience.
Nice people & nice selection!!
Got the paints I needed. Good selection. Love this place.
We just recently purchased a couple of Traxxas Rustlers from here. Since then, Ive been back 2 times lol. These cars are so fast, Ive broken mine twice already, and both times were spectacular! Luckily most of the replacement parts are rather inexpensive. And there are tons of upgrades you can do.Our sales expert was Howard, and he was fantastic. He didnt try to upsell us, and he made sure we got the best deal we could for our batteries. I was fortunate enough to deal with him on 2 out of 3 occasions, and he comes across as very knowledgeable, passionate, and patient with people new to the RC hobby world.
Outstanding customer service and everyone there are all passionate hobbyists. I prefer to order everything from them because of the military discounts along with the hobby card perks. Sean keeps the shop running smoothly and Steve is the gas and nitro expert. Everyone there is amazing and they really care about the product and their customer. I go in there a lot just to talk and expand my knowledge of the hobby. If your into rc, nitro, plans, drones, models, action figures etc. come to hobby town(Wichita) and support your local business and learn from fellow hobbyist.
Good stuff.
Good store. They have a nice selection of RC planes, cars, boats, helis, and other toys and models. Personnel are helpful. Good place to go for anything RC hobby related.
I like going to this place because they have an assortment of different items that you would not necessarily expect. They also offer a military discount. The staff is very knowledgeable and what they do. And they also have an educational area. I feel like this was not just a store for grown-ups but also for kids to. As long as they are well supervised.
Only place in town that sells Gunpla, but selection is usually terrible. They mostly stock 00/Build Fighters kits, with a smattering of Uni/UC/thunderbolt and IBO. Sometimes you get lucky and find rare kits. They do stock PGs but selection is hit and miss. Ocassionaly they have Megas.Gunpla prices are usually way more expensive then what you pay online, but youre also not paying for shipping either and you get the item today rather then lost in the mail or weeks later.Really good boardgame selection. Have purchased a handful of games from them over the year. Decent variety of board games.1 side of store is all RC stuff, other side is trains/scale models/boardgames/warhammer/miniatures/science art experiments/tools and paint.In the middle they have TCGs but stock is pretty limited.My advice to management is stock wide variety of gunpla and stock better TCG options especially in the MTG/Yugioh/Pokemon areas.Management itself is pretty decent helpful and friendly. Never really had a bad experience. Highly recommended for local nerds.
Got my metal toys there
It’s good to have help when needed they have a very large selection so far everything I have broke they have had in stock.
Always have the Traxxas parts needed and if not, they will gladly help you with ordering them to the store.
Best RC Car and Drone shop in town, and Id say pretty easily so. All the staff know their stuff, they stick a ton of RC parts and can order anything. Id say their prices overall are even with Amazon, on bigger ticket stuff they are actually better. That mixed with the service makes it a hard place to beat. And I dont even race RC Boats!
Very helpful
I had an extra bad customer experience here. I ended up just leaving them the $400 worth of merchandise I had purchased there. I tried to contact a manager by email, but just received a couple of odd semi-threatening replies. This is not your ideal shopping destination.
The staff is friendly! I go in about once a month with my kids to let them check out the model train selection and there are a lot!! My youngest enjoys the little train table in there. The employees have never been rude. I always find new things in there! Check out their store it is very clean and peaceful!
Wide variety of rc cars, boats, planes and drones. Fair prices.
What a neat place! It had a nice selection of items for a variety of ages for the youngest to the youngster in all of us, and especially for the those of us who enjoy our hobbies in our rare free time. It was my first trip and I wasnt disappointed!
I am from out of town and stopped by HobbyTown just for fun and to kill some time. This is the best hobby store I think that I have ever seen and the prices are equal to or less than mail order + shipping. My particular interest was RC airplanes and drones and they had plenty in stock. It’s a large store with a wide variety of hobby interests including cars, trains, and rockets. Lots of hardware, electronics, painting supplies and tools as well. I enjoyed browsing and the people there were knowledgeable, helpful and fun to talk too.
Great place and VERY helpful staff.
Great bunch of guys..very knowledgeable & helpful!
One of the last RC hobby shops in operation. Good guys there. They are very helpful. Wanted to buy an actual kit and they were willing to call and see if the one I wanted was available. Not many guys still build kits, but they were willing to take the extra step to help out.
They always have something cool and a pretty good selection
Great inventory! If you are an experienced hobbyist or gamer and know what you are looking for you will enjoy this place. If you are looking for something specific and ask where it is someone should be able to help you, but dont expect good conversation, they dont seem very inspired. Its a good place to get what you want, but not the most fun or stimulating atmosphere. There are better options in Wichita that carry more specific product than the large inventory sold here.TL:DRProduct is good, staff is whatever, they have what you want but not a fun place to go get it.
Great service, even better prices. But if youre into war gaming you gotta be there quick before selection is bought out.
Great customer service!
Great stock of models of all sorts. And plenty of RC items as well.
Hobbytown is a lovely little gem. All kinds of wonderful games, trains, models, comics. Swing on by see if they have what you are looking for.
Bought 2 new trucks from them and within 2 weeks I have spent over $200 on additional parts with them. The problem is when they are selling you upgraded parts they do not even bother to tell you that you will need other parts to make those parts work. Pretty much seemed that I was bothering them trying to spend money local. Pretty disappointed that the folks at the hobby store cant manage to sell you the correct parts the first time.
Loved the selection! Please come to Pensacola, FL!!
Toys toys toys, boy do they have the toys! They have probably the widest selection of RC cars, trucks and planes in all of Wichita! And maybe the Midwest. Been going to this facility for many years now and always have had great service, and friendly advice. They also have all sizes of trains, and slotted race tracks along with an endless supply of different board games you could ever imagine! What a great place to visit even if youre just looking around!Tell Ken, Paul sent you!
Brought in a race car I bought online. Helped me get parts. Large variety. Very friendly. Decent pricing. My Recommended hobby store
Very helpful. I started to paint miniatures and they helped me with product and advice on what I needed to get srarted
Best place to go hands down the staff is very knowledgeable on everything if they dont have it they will get it.. thank u
Great customer service! Ive been in the store alot since I bought my first RC car, and everytime! Ive had great Service picking out parts for my Slash,Steve is now my go to guy, he has helped me with installing upgrades to Soldering wires.Every employee Ive came to with questions, had answers or knew who could. Thanks for all the help fellas!
Never a bad experience. Great staff, great selection
Had a lot of great things. Almost any hobby could be found. Including stuff for Magic.
They are always helpful
One of the best hobby stores in town. Great people, very knowledgeable and very good prices. Always orders things quickly and their loyalty program is top notch.
Always THE BEST for any RC or slot hobbies! Very knowledgeable and helpful. .... prices are a lil higher than other places but they are the BEST
Whatever I need, they help. If they dont have it, they get it. Great group.
This store has a wide range of various hobbies it is truly a good hobby store. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is the selection in some areas can be lacking. But really its a minor issue.
Very knowledgeable staff. Willing to help. Willing to order something if they run out of stock. 10/10 recommend.
Great shop! Has a lot of games, models, trains and more. Staff is super friendly and helpful.
They have lots of stuff. If they sell all the stuff they get more stuff. The one staff member had a really cool shirt. I asked if I can open a kit to take a look at the contents and he said yeh.
I love this place but its not getting five stars cuz its all the way on the east side I really wish there was one on the west side so I dont have to drive 20 minutes to Rock road
Great place to get unique puzzles, toys & games.
Awsome customer service. They all were very Helpful and Knows a lot about TheirRc Cars. Nash Was Very Helpful and Knowledgeable About my Car. Thank You guys For the Great Experience I had There.
Very nice and friendly staff!Good prices, very comparable to on line pricing.They are extremely knowledgeable!I highly recommend HobbyTown USA!
Great hobby store. It has tons of board games, table top games and roleplaying games. It also had a lot of the painting supplies for miniatures I needed and some I couldnt find online like the citadel miniature holder. The store also had a lot of other hobby goods like airplanes and models. The staff are very helpful and pleasant.
Love this place!!
Horrible customer service
The staff is helpful and seems to know their products well. They have worked me through a couple different issues w/ my sons rc car at no charge. They have a good variety and from what Ive found online they are competitively priced.
Friendly staff, very helpful. They make sure you get the right stuff you need and not try to sell you stuff you dont need. I went in to buy rims and tires and they said to bring in my truck to make sure were get the right fit. Thats service.
Young or old, new games or classic theyve got a fantastic selection. Also RC cars, planes, trains. A little bit of everything for everyone.
Very good help! They know there stuff.
Amazing assortment of games! Our family likes to play board games and there is a wonderful selection here! Great for model railway enthusiasts as well.
Very nice place so anything for everyones interests. Was suprised how many thing there was for my little one. Ended up getting her a numbers puzzle play. Staff was helpful and made sure that if we needed help they were available. Had a great time.
The hidden gem of Wichita! Such unique toys! Great place for gifts.
Best place to go foe rare earth magnets and other tools you may need for hobbying. However you guys have to get your stock in order. Seems like you rarely have the stock to refill stuff like acrylic rods.
Great store great guys, real help with problems and parts please support local shops even if it cost more than online Because they have knowledge and customer service. If you believe people need better pay this is the only way wages go up Id you support local Thanks again for being a great company
Always find something I want and come out with more than I expected!
Very knowledgeable, great selection
Awesome selection of unique toys ! Also so many different hobby items to choose from. Trains, rc cars all the cool stuff for children and grown ups alike!!!!
The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I would visit much more if I closer.
They are always helpful with whatever we need. Even if we dont know what we need.
Very helpful and knowledgeable about there products
Good place, good prices, good people.
I am very new to Nitro R/C cars. One day I decided to go ahead and buy one, and unfortunately I decided to check Craigslist. I found a very cheap one on there, and bought it with the mindset that there was probably a lot wrong with it - I was right.I had seen this place listed when I was searching for other hobby related items in the past, but always decided on somewhere else. This time I was closer to this shop and decided to give it a try - I wasnt disappointed. This place is about an hour and a half drive from where I live, and Ive been there 4 times this month. It is a worthwhile trip every time.The most recent visit, I needed to replace my whole engine. The clerk who helped me was ultra nice, never got aggravated with my ignorance, and was a knowledge powerhouse of USEFUL information. When he saw me struggling with what I was needing done - he stepped in and offered help without hesitation. He saved me hours of agonizing tinkering, loads of money, and headaches.Not only does this place offer R/C items, but theres just about every other hobby there too - including art supplies, telescopes, trains, and science projects. The prices are extraordinarily fair. By far the best hobby shop Ive ever been to in the world.Thank you so much!!!!
Hobby Town is an odd place. The store is divided down the middle with craft supplies, art stuff, model trains, board games, and Dnd related items on the right hand side. The left hand side is devoted to model cars and planes. The staff seems to have a great breadth of knowledge regarding models and items related to models including the trains, cars, airplanes, and various RC type cars. They do not have a large knowledge base on the games, DnD, science kits, etc in my experience. However at least they try and want to help you as long as you ask for help. This isn’t a modern store made for people who are incapable of asking for help or expect to be treated like royalty. The store is staffed by a bunch of nice but gruff old men who are awesome but treat people the way they likely would want to be treated. The selection is broad, the prices are higher than you’ll likely find online. But it’s a great in person hobby store with people who can actually answer your questions. It is a local business and Wichita always needs more of these.
Great help. good pricing. When in need of help to fix a remote control truck or car. This is the place to go.
Great service, first time for curbside shopping, you guys are awesome
Great place to get my RC Fix.Knowledgeable staff.Lots of different hobby options here so theres definitely fun to be found.
Great place, friendly staff. Just wish they would think about moving to a bigger place, opening a indoor track. You cant tell me that a indoor track just feet from your parts counter wouldnt pay off. I dont see how Hutch has a big enough following to support it but Wichita wouldnt. The weather killed Emery park not the following.
They sold the turtle😔 but I found some nerf guns and got super excited, so its cool now.
Great selection of models, and modeling supplies. Friendly and helpful staff, Ill definitely be a returning customer!
Staff is super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Not made many purchases but I have been there half a dozen times and they have save me tons of money in rookie mistakes. ...like a brushless micro losing with all aluminum parts I have no business driving. Instead I spent more money, got a nicer car, and had little trouble with it.
Very friendly, very knowledgeable, I will definitely go back
They actually have a good variety of unique toys that would make great gifts... a nicely stocked store...
Best place to go for table top games and supplies in the Wichita area. Cool RC stuff and models too.
Had not been here in years. Dont remember the staff from back then. Bit the staff that was there were really friendly. Even towards a person who didnt realize that they had dialed a wrong number.
Whether youre looking for models, games, toys, or RC equipment, this place probably has it. And they have somebody whos knowledgeable enough to help out. A great place to find that thing you didnt even know you needed, when you walked in the door.
