This year I am trying to really commit to shopping locally for things and I'm glad to find a place that has much of what I need for decent prices. I also always enjoy meeting folks who have knowledge, expertise and good salesmanship. Looking forward to returning for my next project's needs!

As a first time shopper for my aunt who enjoys this type of hobby, they had a variety of items such as military planes, tanks, battle ships, and subs too. I enjoyed the display of all of the models to look at as they had many types of cars, trucks and more. It felt personal as this is a privately own established business that I enjoy supporting and contributing too.

Track fee is $10 per day/night, or you can sign up for the monthly membership at $50 which also includes free competition entry. The shop is run by father-son duo, Rob and Shane, and they're two of the most helpful guys to have around; helping all of their new and returning customers stay out on track. Track quality is extremely nice, polished concrete which really helps for realistic scale drifting. The shop also sells RC Rock Crawler, Mini-Z, Kei Truck and others but it's certainly mostly centered around drifting. Great group of customers returning here - everyone just wants to have a good time and help each other out. Incredibly glad to have found this spot, and it's for sure my new haunt. Great vibes up in TandemRC!

There were 15/16 players signed up for this event a week ago+ ago when I signed up and today they start play 5 hours early no warning or email with only 6 players for a riftbound skirmish??

I have done business with a wide variety of suppliers and Reynolds is now my top choice for materials. They just know their stuff when it comes to making something. With casting materials and mold materials there are so many choices from so many suppliers it can be a challenge at times to find the right path to get the results you want. Laurie at Reynolds in Tempe just has it down where the guess work is at a real minimum. Not every project or job is a 1,2,3, to finish operation, so anything that takes out the error and saves you money is a bonus in my book and Reynolds does just that. Oh yeah, be ready to gawk for a while if you're a creator, because your choices and tools available at Reynolds far exceeds many of the suppliers I used while working in Hollywood.

When this store first opened, and for a couple years after, it had a great selection of board games. Almost two short aisles worth. There used to be a lot of titles to look at. They even had Kickstarters if I remember correctly, Just went in there the other day looking to buy, and walked out in less than three minutes. They have practically NO BOARD GAMES ANY MORE. They had a skinny, double-sided book case display with games, probably about 15 titles (and all small games at that) . Yep, that's it! The place has miniatures for skirmish like games coming out their ears if you're into that. I don't know what happened. Clearly their customers are not board gamers. If you're looking for board games then try the Walmart across the street. I guarantee they will have a superior selection. Better yet go to the Gaming Goat up in north Mesa or Athoria Games in Tempe.

There were quite a few, but not as many as I'd hoped (at least that he didn't have; it's well stocked for non-collectors or beginning collectors just fine, but not for someone who has been collecting for 15+ years lol). There was also a little bin of pins and stuff, so I grabbed myself a few of those. The staff up front talked to me a bit and when I'd mentioned my husband collects board games and retro games, they pointed me toward another shop in the little mall behind the DQ. Super kind of them!

You get to choose your color from a list and note it when you register on their website. It was $85 before tax and came with 5 skeins of yarn, with the option to add more (I think for an additional $15). I also put in the notes on my registration the names of my friends so that we could sit together. The workshop was at 6pm on a Friday and lasted about two hours. There was my group of three and three others, plus the owner/instructor Lauren. Her instructions were easy to follow, and she would jump in if we needed help. I made a few errors, and she was able to fix them for me. I ended up making my loops too loose on the outside and too tight on the inside, so my blanket came out a bit small. But I think it was decent for my first attempt. It's so soft. I keep it on my couch to use as a lap blanket. We all had a great time and would definitely come back to try other workshops. My coworker had tried one of the resin workshops and really liked it too.
