It's worth noting that this is not a traditional hobby shop, if you are looking for models and trains consider trying Unkel Joe's Woodshed or Hobby Lobby. Store Interior is large and open. SCG has a large amount of gaming space in the back of the store that does not obstruct the shopping area. The large selection of trading cards including sports and collectable card gaming items is located on the left side of the store, with most behind the counter. SCG has a large selection of board games and Lego sets, with a good selection of pop vinyl's. Various table top gaming items are also available. Comic selection is primarily budget long boxes that are well organized, with some premium boxes, wall books, and a limited selection of new pulls available. Has a large selection of graphic novels. SCG Hobby is the best general hobby shop in the Altoona area and absolutely worth a stop.

This store has something for everyone. I'm into RPGs, my partner is into Lego, and both of us enjoy graphic novels & board games. I bought her a Lego set & she bought me a copy of the old classic Mille Bournes. I tried to take several photos so visitors have some idea what they might see, but these photos don't include many sections, such as the comics, Funko Pops, CCGs, or gaming miniatures. Do stop by if you're in the area!

Let me be honest, I did not want to come here, but after striking out on many occasions at nearby…read morestores I caved and came here. I have avoided coming here for years, as a matter of fact, any location anywhere. I don't agree with some of their policies and it is their right to conduct their workplace how they will, just as it is my right to shop where I want. With that out of the way, let's talk about this experience. I had been looking for a specific item for the past few weeks. You know how you get an item in your head, you know it exists, but you just cannot find it anywhere you look. That was me recently. I knew what I wanted/needed, but could not for the life of me locate it anywhere. With my head hanging low, I entered this facility. Walking in here is like walking into a different world, craft world that is. This is like a mega store for crafting needs. I mean, how in the world are there that many crafting supplies that you need this big of a layout? Having never been in one of these before and not knowing where anything might be located I started wandering. And wander I did. My first line of attack was just to walk the center aisle and glance down every aisle as I passed. That did not work, this place is like a maze without a map. At one point I felt like I was Pac-Man chasing the ghosts, only the ghosts were associates that were working here. Each time I saw one they would run away like I had eaten the big pellet. So much for getting help here to ask where an item might be. My next line of attack, and this took forever, was to go up and down each and every aisle until I found my item. Did it work, yes, did it take forever, definitely, did I have any assistance, no. Having found my one item I ended up making a b-line to where I thought the front of the store was. I stood in line to wait my turn to pay and started noticing the Christianity closing in on me, that and the basic signs on the walls. The one and only time I had an interaction with an associate in here was at the cash register. It was as if the employee was brainwashed and on autopilot. No affect or personality. As soon as I got outside I had to light up a cigarette like I had just survived something dubious.

I'm never going to buy from Subway again. There are plenty of honest good stamp dealers out there, but Subway isn't one of them! I understand that vendors sometimes make honest mistakes, but Subway went out of their way to do anything to resolve the problem.
