The guys took the time to answer all my questions, give great recommendations, and make sure I found exactly what I was looking for. The selection is absolutely amazing. They have a huge variety of RC vehicles across so many categories -- cars, trucks, airplanes, boats, and much more. Their Traxxas selection in particular is impressive, with tons of different models, parts, and accessories to choose from. Whether you're just getting into the hobby or you've been into RC for years, there's a lot to see here. I was about to catch a flight after visiting the store, and the team went above and beyond to help me carefully pack everything I bought so I could travel with it. I ended up leaving with a Kyosho Mini-Z and two SCX30s! Amazing selection, outstanding service, and a team that genuinely enjoys the hobby and helping customers. I'll definitely be coming back whenever I'm in San Antonio. Highly recommended!

FIRST VISIT: Bought a Hyperion Naze32 flight controller for my new drone there and the guys were…read morevery helpful and nice about it. First problem with the bad reviews: that guy from Los Angeles, CA probably needs to pack his shit up and go back to California where he came from. Why would you blame the store workers for some patron who's an asshole? If some mexican guy treated me that way I would just tell him to fuck off and mind his own business unless he wanted to get punched in the face. Bottom line: Staff was very nice to me when I went in there, and gave me useful information on the Naze32 flight controller. I will be going back for more business. SECOND VISIT: Went back again on a Saturday and the store guys could not have been nicer to me. I bought a "Dromida Vista UAV" for my brother (which has turned out to be a VERY nice drone after one test flight) and a Flynoceros carbon fiber frame for my new FPV copter. Their prices are the same as Amazon so they're competitive enough for me to buy local. Even when the store was full of people these guys hustle to help everyone.

There isn't a more knowledgeable staff at any rc store in san antonio hands down.

I've bought atleast 20 vehicles from them and you can't beat the prices. Best value period

It's one of my first stops whenever I make a trip back home. If you're a gamer or model enthusiast this is THE place to go in Central Texas.

I've made so many new friends over the years that I just bumped into in the aisles. King's Hobby is an Austin institution. Can't wait to get back home this summer - see you there.

I never realized how many Lego Star Wars, Disney, DC and Marvel figurines there really are, but this place seems to have them all. For $7.99 you can fill up a small container with whatever pieces you desire from the Lego fill up station or go to the medium size for $16.99. Maybe that's not enough. You can go even bigger and leave with a large bag for 34.99 and have a Lego party. They also sell individual characters ranging from low to $30 for the more rare characters. They have a most impressive section of Star Wars sets and my favorite item on display was the Death Star from Return of the Jedi. Coming up for second place on esthetically pleasing would have to be the huge pirate ship and the Joker coaster looked like a fun build. We were greeted on arrival and asked if we needed any help finding anything in particular. We let him know we were just checking out Star Wars goodies and the like and he left us to our browsing as I like it. This is a great store to get lost in, and I will soon return.

I went to Bricks & Minifigs to sell a vintage LEGO Star Wars set from the 1990s. Before completing…read morethe transaction, I was told they would pay me the full amount that was quoted to me. I agreed to sell the set based on that amount. Instead, when the transaction was completed, I was paid only 10% of the amount I had been told I would receive. That's not a minor difference or a negotiation over the value of a used LEGO set. That's a 90% reduction from the amount I was told I would be paid. I immediately objected and wanted my Star Wars set back, but they refused to return it. At that point I was extremely frustrated because I had agreed to the transaction based on the original amount I was quoted. Had I been told beforehand that I was only going to receive 10% of that amount, I obviously would not have agreed to sell it. I completely understand that Bricks & Minifigs is a resale business and needs to buy LEGO below market value to make a profit. That's not what I'm complaining about. The issue is being told one amount, agreeing to sell based on that amount, receiving only 10% of it, and then being refused when I asked to undo the transaction. If you're selling valuable or vintage LEGO, know exactly what you're agreeing to before handing over your set. Get the offer clearly confirmed and make sure the amount you're actually being paid matches the amount you were quoted. Based on this experience, I would not trust Bricks & Minifigs with another valuable LEGO set, and I would strongly recommend that other sellers be extremely careful.
