My husband and I recently took our very first trip to Las Vegas, and one of the most memorable…read moreparts of our visit was discovering Downtown Hobby 9. My husband is a big Gundam fan, and while exploring the area, he found this amazing little shop just off the Strip. As soon as we walked in, I could tell he was in heaven--it was like watching a kid in a candy store! The shop had a fantastic variety of Gundam kits, including models from Japan and another section from China. The collection was so well-organized and fun to explore. While we were shopping, my husband noticed that some of the same kits he had purchased online before were priced about $15-$20 less elsewhere. But even knowing that, he didn't hesitate--he wanted to support this small, local business. That meant a lot to both of us, especially after learning the shop is backed by its own tight-knit community. "Locals supporting locals" is something we value. The staff were also genuinely kind and welcoming. I wish I remembered their names--they made the experience even more enjoyable. We ended up buying quite a few kits and were concerned about how we'd get them all back to San Francisco. Fortunately, they offered shipping, and everything arrived quickly and was packed with such great care. We also noticed they were selling some awesome shirts and learned that the artwork was created by one of their community members. The designs were so cool and creative that we decided to purchase a few. We actually came back for a second visit during our second trip to Vegas--and, of course, picked up even more Gundam kits and shirts. With recent tariffs being added to imports, we wouldn't be surprised if prices go up by the time we're back in August. So honestly, what we paid might end up being a deal! If you're a Gundam fan or just love supporting genuine, community-driven small businesses, Downtown Hobby 9 is absolutely worth a visit. We're already looking forward to stopping by again on our next trip--stay tuned!

"To love and be loved is truly something amazing."…read more What's not to love about Japan? Except it's so far away ! Everyone knows that the Japanese individuals love their gaming platforms and cultures . We can thank the creators and brilliant minds for small businesses that give America a small piece of their world. Thus we have a little bit of Henderson right here from Japan . This store is a must come in for. It's nestled in a small alcove where you wander in . The store front does not do the store justice. Let's go in . Most of the store is just browsing along the aisles . They offer so much variety . One thing that captured my attention was the selection of small scale models making kits for sale. Come to find out, Japan produces 80 percent of the world's small scale plastic model sets. It is centered around the city of Shizuoka. The "idea" of model design and making is a cherished art form in this particular city . Many small scale sets and designs are available for an individual to purchase and enjoy. The art and concept of origami design paper can be found here too. Are you ready to be creative and make something out of this imaginative state? Let's slip into another dimension and reality to explore life in the most beautiful ways. Origami is used to many different ways. One can use it as a tool to meditate, religious practice, ceremony; the range is not limited or restricted. Some of the folded papers represent many aspects of what they are folded to be. For example the lotus flower symbolizes spirituality and purity. Come find out more! The world has changed so dramatically let's discover something new to make it all rainbows and roses. They offer many choices for food and drink from Japan that you could choose from too . Go check it out. .

If you're an introvert wanting to work on a project this quiet store might have what you're looking…read morefor. That said, many of the pictures for this place make it seem there is a lot of stuff to look at. Unfortunately most of it is in boxes so not a good selection for window shopping.

My son and I went here looking to get more info on more "serious" RC cars than you get on Amazon…read more It's a little daunting because of the sheer volume of what you don't know about this hobby just starting out. Mostly all we knew was we were tired of spending money on junk to only have it breakdown in a week or so. First thing you notice when you pull up to the store is the racetrack painted in the parking lot complete with several ramps. Guess what? It's free to use! 24/7! We went inside and we met with Floyd ceiling RC cars, parts accessories everywhere! It was exciting to see just how far this rabbit hole could go! In another section of the store stem-centric toys (like science kits and build your own RC Lego cars) and another section is dedicated to 3-D printing. Still further in are three indoor tracks that you pay for time on. One is a super fast carpeted racetrack, and then there are two rock crawling tracks one for minis and one for regular cars. Dotted throughout the store are numerous arcade games that are free to play. All of that sounds awesome enough, but the friendly staff are amazingly knowledgeable and endlessly helpful. They don't make you feel like idiots for not knowing everything they do. They really are friendly and I've already spent a small fortune there!

Went into a hobby store that has a large selection of 3-D printing and they didn't have a single…read morebox of ABS. They gave me some story about they're expecting a big shipment in, but it wasn't there so I don't recommend this business to do anything with 3D printing. They also have numerous boxes of their own brand of PLA filament that I wouldn't trust if you gave it to me for free. I think it'd be nice if you inform people who actually makes your filament because I know you don't. With friendly in your name I would've thought you would've been more friendly to your customer. I tried several times to make small talk with the people behind the counter and they had nothing to do with me. The person behind the counter told me that the business was sold to a new owner. I suspect it'll go out of business very soon. If the owner reads this, you need to train your staff a little bit more and how to deal with customers in a friendly way since it is in your name.

Generation after generation Lego has been a huge fixture in all our lives…read more Do you know? Lego was founded in 1932. The founders name was Ole Kristiansen. He was a wood carpenter that made toys in Sweden . The original form of the plastic blocks with the LEGO branding on all pieces was put together and launched in the fifties. What's not to love, except maybe LEGO that can be relived over and over again . We all know that we can use our imaginations and let it soar when using our LEGOs . We can retain this information and improve our understanding of the universe around us. Now we can also explore that playing with legos are "good" for your mental wellbeing . So, playing with toys is not just novel but helps many quadrants of the brain. Some of the functions it can perform and make better are simple memory recalls can allow an individual to recall the past events easier. Your understanding of perspective and others viewpoints becomes clearer. Your creativity itch gains momentum. These are a just a few small examples how using your imagination can be stimulated through playing . You're more than welcome to come and browse or stay and watch as the world of Lego change around you with new types of Lego coming and going . They have so many amazing sets and they are already put together. Are you looking for that particular unique piece for a specific project or event look no further. Bring your intentions to life.

"Make your wonderful dream a reality, and it will become your truth!"…read more Pokémon what's not to love ! From the land of the rising sun we can all agree on this the Pokémon is in our hearts and minds. Weaved into our culture. The yellow Pikachu, the yellow electric rat so many ways to love him. This store is all things that are Pokémon. All the characters. In all their glory. This store is busy, so please be patient . You might have to wait to go inside. The staff is very calm and friendly. They are always helpful. They are knowledgeable about what they are dealing in. If you are looking to trade they will give you a great price. If you are looking for something from the past it's worth a look to see what that collection needs. All in all it's a great place to come and see pop culture fun.

Probably the worst shop in Vegas. The only good thing is they have a lot of inventory. The bad…read morething is they have a lot of inventory because they want people to pay 130-150% of market . My husband went in to buy Uta manga psa10 . Last sales were all around 720$ and a couple at 800$ . 800 was highest sale . My husband offered highest last sold at 800$ and they said no we are firm at 850+tax . Not willing to even sell at market or slightly higher . They want 50$ plus tax over market on a one piece card which is down right now on a card with low hype . It's not like Uta is going to skyrocket in the near future . This has consistently been our experience the last 5 or 6 times we have been here . Staff is also rude when you negotiate for market I would suggest going to the other shops in town who are more down to earth. I've never had a shop turn down highest last sale in a card . Even more so when last few sales where at 720 UPDATE : responding to the owners comments . We were looking at market live no one is sensitive to market changes . Instead of her being firm and hard on the sale she should know to go back and ask if they can sell it at 800. I know you would have taken 800 because that's slightly above market but your rep wasn't even willing to ask and that's the problem . We looked at comps together and both agreed the comps justify 800$ but she still chose to say no we are firm at 850 instead of asking someone higher up . This isn't the first time either . This would be about the 5-6 time we had a similar experience buying and selling . My husband did a review months back dealing with an issue similar when selling and considering multiple people hearted the comment , it shows he is not the only one experiencing this . Your staff should know to go ask if the comps make sense instead of putting up a brick wall and out of ego saying "no we are firm at 130% of market 2nd UPDATE!!! I attached photos of my conversation with owner on instagram via DM . Now I understand why the staff is the way they are . Rude , unprofessional, and even started to threaten a court of law nothing is edited out for full transparency of the experience you can expect from this owner and his staff .
