Also a great place to shop for unique gifts for kids. I come here to buy role-playing game products and miniatures and paint supplies. They've really expanded in that department, and on several occasions it's been the only place I could find certain games. Rider's is definitely worth checking out.

My boyfriend and I recently got into RC cars, and he has visited Riders a few times to pick up…read moreparts. Unfortunately, each visit has been disappointing. They often sell him the wrong items or are completely out of what he needs to get his RC car running. Most recently, he purchased a brushless motor they recommended, and we returned today hoping to buy a transmitter. To our surprise, we were informed that they wouldn't have any in stock until the end of August! To add to our frustration, they have a strict no-return policy, so we're stuck with parts that don't work for us. It's frustrating to rely on a shop that consistently misses the mark on customer needs and doesn't offer refunds for incorrect purchases. We won't be coming back and want to warn others to think twice before buying from them.

10/10 Best Tabletop Gaming store in West Michigan!…read more Jesse has helped build an amazing community that has something for everyone. If you have ever wanted to get into tabletop gaming, modeling, painting, or TCG's like Magic: The Gathering Far Harbor is the place to be! Jesse (the owner) and the other players there are always willing to lend a hand and answer questions about any of the product in store. Which is a TON of product! You will never find a more knowledgeable staff and player base than the one at Far Harbor. They all actually play the games that the store sells, rather than other "game stores" that just sell product but don't know anything about the game at all. They offer a great discount on most items, and also host a TON of community events like tournaments, demo days, and even hobby days. If your looking to get the best value out of your hard earned hobby money Far Harbor is the place to go! Plus Ash is the best boy of a shop dog!

Hobby Recycling is located just west of Grand Rapids. Besides having new merchandise they have gently used trains and scenery too. I have assembled an almost complete Amtrak Empire Builder and Santa Fe Chief. I also have a good start on a UP passenger train and Sound Transit's Sounder. If you have champagne taste and a Budweiser budget, this is the place to come for gently used trains.

They're not paranoid of you; they're just friendly and want to help. But what they REALLY want to do is play a game with you - like a FLUX card game. (I played the CAT version.) Speaking of cat, their 17 yr old kitty died last year. Don't be too hard on them. The place is dated, cluttered and musty. But they're great people and that's what matters.

If you love vintage plastic model kits, this place is heaven on earth. This is one of the VERY FEW…read morebusinesses left anywhere in the Midwest, now that CRM in St Louis is mail-order only and Big Bear Hobby in Milwaukee has closed due to the passing of its longtime owner. Dean's Hobby Stop is a mecca of vintage kits, many in amazingly good condition considering they are 30-50 years old mostly, and at much better prices that you might pay on eBay. Not to mention you save the expense and risk of shipping if you come to the store in person. I live in Chicago and have family in the Detroit area, but I'll go quite a bit out of my way to come here whenever I can. Dean is a real gentleman and his wife and partner is a real gem too!
