    Owner Bob with his beautiful furball cat
    Georgie M.

    Wow! Dynamic Hobbies has the largest selection of plastic models, HO and Lionel O Gauge trains, gas powered planes and remote controlled toy cars, I have seen under one roof! And.... I haven't even gotten to their two huge train layouts. I started coming here a few weeks ago and met with Bob, one of the owners. Over forty years, I collected many HO model trains and buildings. Some were rare, but most were European and UK in variety. I was taken aback by his huge selection. I took lots of photos, so I'll let you decide if it's worth a trip to Hemet and the Inland Empire. For me, it was a rare find and I can see many hours of my retirement coming here. But there is no way you can come here and not leave with a little something special. Bob is a great guy and has the most beautiful cat. Five Stars.

    I May be wrong but i believe this place is locally owned and operated. It's definitely been around FOREVER and has TONS of hobby shop supplies for the average RC snob, train connector, sky flyer, helicopter enthusiast, rock crawler, race car, etc. Dynamic Hobbies probably has the key to the doorway that you haven't been able to open, so give them a chance. They are literally right on the corner of Santa Fe and Florida. There are plenty of things to do for kids. Yes they can get expensive, but the cheaper stuff is cool too! I ordered some parts for my sons RC car about 4 months ago and we got side tracked and went in today to get them and they were still there, ready to go for us! Thanks guys!

    Had a good time walking through the shop. In the back there is an o scale train layout with a few different trains on the track that one of the nice employees was able to run two of the trains around the layout. I was there in hopes of finding more o scale trains and scenery but unfortunately I got there too late because they had moved into selling HO and n scale. There's a nice selection of RC planes, cars and boats. I was able to pick up a plastic model that I'll get to enjoy this weekend. The people there are very friendly and knowledgeable. They do repair trains, but I'd call first to make sure if their person can repair your scaled train. To the gentleman who ran the trains. I truly appreciate it. I had a nice time watching those go around the layout and seeing the detail put into each of the buildings. Thank you again.

    Best Hobby in the Valley great customer service friendly environment and always have what I need. Bob the owner is fantastic and so is his staff

    Battery was individually inspected and they suggested that I took a photo for warranty purposes.  Helpful staff!

    As a newbie into the Radio Control car scene, they were helpful in deciding what vehicle to get, especially in the packed store at the time. Mel and Bob were detailed, especially to a beginner like I was, especially when my last RC car was over 30 years ago when I was growing up.

    Totally worth the drive for me, and Bob has ordered things I've needed at those competitive prices I spoke of.

He came to me and asked if he could help me and I explained I was looking for a very specific item. He said he came across that item and how did I know about it?

He was so kind and friendly and I could 1000% see why he was the Manager. Even if he hadn't found it...he took the time to see if he could help. Great Manager and hope he stays.

In a situation like that, just give the customer the bag. Now you have a zero star review over .10 . At the end, there was another girl who asked if I would like a little bag at that point I just said no thank you and left
