Awesome! Everyone was very nice and super helpful. I'm a noob to RC cars and the gentleman, Alex,…read morewas very patient while getting me sorted out with all of the things I needed to get me started with my first kit. Advance specializes in Tamiya kits and, although they have RTR cars, you will find a large selection of kits for people who prefer to build from scratch. The store has a broad selection of replacement and hop-up parts for a number of top manufacturers. If there is something that he doesn't have in stock, he can definitely order it for you. I have no idea where the poor ratings come from. My experience has been the complete opposite of the people disparaging the staff. I would also poi9nt out that Tamiya is Japanese, not Chinese, and the other brands (Traxxas, Redcat Racing, Arrma) carried are headquartered in the U.S., to my knowledge.

They have a large selection of competitively priced gunpla and various tools. I'm someone who has essentially bought every gundam related stuff that I've wanted. Surprisingly enough, I found some water decals for obscure kits here. Overall, 100% worth coming to take a look. I am traveling from out of the country and this was one of the best places I've visited.

Decided to take up a new hobby--building my first Gundam. Looking at their website, they had a…read morelarge inventory of stock; Freedom Gundam v2 MG grade really piqued my interest. The store was a bit hidden away, but it was really spacious inside. Lots of other model kits to choose from. Since it was my first time building one, I asked a plethora of questions. The gentlemen working there were really helpful, and super patient especially when explaining to me how to panel line, sand the plastic, lazy vs. pro ways to make the model look attractive, and dry vs. wet decal sticker application. I really liked how they were genuinely really into what they do, instead of trying to push you to buy the most expensive kits like some places. If you're ever starting out, I'm confident these pros are able to assist. In any event, I enjoyed my first kit so much that I came back on 2 other separate occasions and purchased the Full Armor Unicorn Gundam VarKa MG grade. I chose MG grade because it was large enough to see most of the details, and also small enough that it didn't take up too much space--perfectly at 18cm. Finally, the price was acceptable for import model kit. Definitely worth a visit.

Had a poor experience with this store. They sold me a defective deck box, and when I went to…read moreexchange it, they told me they couldn't do that since it had been opened. There would have been no way to know it was defective without opening it. Then they told me to "speak to Konami about that," knowing very well that's basically an impossible task. I would have spent much more money at the store, but they chose to scum me over $3. Would not recommend.

Their customer service is excellent, the staff is helpful and friendly, and the community is always filled with people who will make you laugh.

They also regularly hold events which many dedicated people come out to attend. I wholeheartedly reccomend Dolly's for a great time.

Recently my toddler…read morehas decided that some Ethernet cables in our router was made to be played with and she ended up snapping off the plug clip. After a search on Google I found Sayal electronic had the part I needed! Checked the website, saw there was stock and which aisle and the next day I had a plan in place. There was plenty of parking outside and when you first enter this location it is filled with a variety of odds and ends but all good stuff. I found a lot of stuff here that I don't usually see anywhere else, and to be honest I was shocked how well organized everything was. Honestly though it was an "organized mess". You can find things easily but just the sheer amount of odds and ends makes it visually busy. I digress I was in and out in 30 minutes though I found my part in 2 minutes. Spent extra time exploring. I recommend checking the website first to see if they have what your looking for then of course head on in to explore.

As an adult with disposable income, what better way to spend it than on Pokémon cards. Recently…read moreembarked on a journey to collect the master set for a new release (Scarlet & Violet 151) so we've been hopping around hobby stores in the area trying to collect them all. I'm new to this addiction, I mean, hobby. But even with my limited research, it's clear to see which of the shops had knowledgeable, passionate, and well-organized staff. The owner of Manta is one of those. He oozed with trading card knowledge and knew things from different releases off by heart. He knew his inventory like the back of his hand so that if we mentioned a card, he had an idea if they had it or not and found it for us. Thanks for helping us to find multiple fat Pikachus for our collection. Outside of Pokémon, Manta has a variety of TCG and collector items. I saw One Piece, Disney, YuGiOh, etc. There's also a sitting area which looks like a place where tournaments are held. You also know a shop is great when you have other shops recommending them, which is how we found Manta in the first place. They came highly recommended from another hobby hot spot of ours (Three Kingdoms).
