    It seemed to me that the store had 3 main sections of models- for cars, for gundam, and for military themed models.

    "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.

I was with my 2 sons and he wouldn't let him hold a slab because and says it was because it was expensive. It wasn't expensive and my son has slabs that are way more. It's a slab that's in a case and protected. When I made my purchase, the guy was like, you got to give the third card back and I was like? You're holding it. He was like, oh. Super weird and disrespectful and I think because I have tattoos he thought I didn't have money or was a threat. I was with my sons, whom are super kind and compassionate. And so am I. Never write bad reviews, but that was not cool. Felt bad for my kids.

    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!

    DTH9 is quite different than other shops, they have a gigantic Tamiya mini 4wd cart track. I am…read morenot a 4wd cart fan but it's still cool to watch. In addition. They have gunplas as well with premium Bandai. The staff was friendly as you can feel their passion towards model kit building. I didn't purchase anything as my collection has surpassed most shops. But I still like to browse around. It is a worthy shop to stop by. It's a 4.9 out of 5.

    Very disappointed in the team and the service. I called ahead saying I'd be late for a pre-release…read moreevent, drove half an hour over here made it at 7:11pm which is there "boss mandate" for dropping people from the event time which I understand, nobody gave me the heads up over the phone no worries, but the hard stance after I called and no exceptions being made makes for a terrible experience when the only thing that sets this shop apart from others is the weekend prerelease schedule, other than that the offering is slim in card selection and the prices are not competitive, I won't recommend this location to friends any longer after this incident

    Found this place on the Wizards of the Coast website. Of course I googled and Yelp'd this place.

It's a bit off the Las Vegas Strip but as I have a rental car it wasn't too far of a drive. First and foremost the two people working the front counter were two of the nicest and friendliest workers of a Local Gaming Store (LGS) that I have ever met anywhere. Being from CA this shocked me in the most positive way. Kudos to them. They were so helpful and eager to answer any questions I had. Secondly. This had to be the cleanest and nice smelling LGS I've ever stepped foot in. As my wife was with me she will tell you that we have been to some LGS's that are have bad air circulation and don't smell very good. Omniscience Cards and Game really goes above and beyond to make their store look and feel welcoming. Bought some card sleeves, nice deck box, an MTG single and 5 pack of MTG packs. A bonus that the workers let me pick my packs from the boxes which for me is a huuuuuuge bonus! All items were fairly priced and reasonable. Overall a wonderful experience and I definitely will be back the next time I visit Las Vegas
