So today I stopped by after not visiting the shop for probably close to 15 yrs as I just moved to…read morethe area. Gentleman at the register gave a bit of a gruff hello, but fine.. walked around the RC cars a bit, no one asked if I needed help.. wandered over to the trains where two employees were chatting and looked at the stuff in the cases..still no offer of help.. customer service seems seriously lacking.. I guess if you know what you're looking for maybe.. such a sad state from the last time I was in.. no wonder online is killing tbe LHS..

Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. Wide selection of models in variety of scales. Good for…read morebeginners and aficionados alike ..like Thomas, who was shopping there this week, and was willing to share history of U S Railroads with me. Worth the trip if you live outside of Hollywood neighborhood. You will appreciate the owner and staff and maybe be lucky to cross paths with enthusiastic customers like Thomas. If you are collecting N scale, ask about the N Scale user group that meets here regularly. Oh, and added bonus of ice cream shop next door :)

The folks here are very considerate and helpful, and open to helping me bring some of my crazy ideas to life. I'm so happy specialty stores like this still exist, and I hope as a community we can continue supporting them. There is no replacement for the years of expertise these shopkeepers bring to the retail experience. There is a large parking lot in front of the store, which is convenient because the neighborhood tends to be pretty busy. And the parking enforcement can be quite unforgiving in the area.

Lenay understood our needs and immediately went to work and provided us with what we needed within 20 minutes. I was really impressed with her kindness, knowledge and skills. Kudos to her for such fast andl friendly service. To the management, Lenay is a tremendous asset to your business in my opinion.​ I would recommend Tap Plastics to anyone who needs,that type or service.

I'm not here all that often. My barbers who were right next door died (yes, all three of them) and…read moreI don't own the train set that brought me in for parts. That said, these guys always had everything I needed--controls, new track, extensions--and always had product I could inspect. No shipping/return ping-pong with online sellers. But what I've grown to love best about them is their outright disdain for the lowest form of "hobbyist": The drone bro. Call it a "multicopter" all you'd like, pal, but your cheap piece of plastic trash is, at best, flying camera gear and, at worst, a suburban air rights debate just waiting to be solved in the most hostile way possible. I'm pleased that Hillsboro Hobby has never catered to these plugs, and I wish them continued success in selling the exact type of anti-air countermeasures that make these guys think twice about flying them over residential areas.

Disappointed. Went in looking for some parts for a RC car that has been on the market for two…read moreyears. Employees there said the model is too new for them to have parts.

Definitely more land-oriented and is mainstream brand oriented (Traxxas, Axial, Spektrum, Horizon, Lectron, E-Flite, etc...), but is a good place to get parts when you need for those brands. Good for general hobby gear. Connectors, tools, couple/few TX and RX options for land and air. Don't expect to find most brands you'll find at online retailers that pedal in the cheaper/more generic Chinese goods. TGY, HK, Orange and whatnot. Owner can come off a little rude when you first meet him, but he means well and will get you taken care of and is a wealth of information. We're all just people and I'm sure there are some he rubs the wrong way at first meet (me, included, but no lie he's a great guy I've found over time!) and some that he clicks with.

Didn't believe the reviews until I drove out here and left within 60 seconds. Super lame shop and…read moresuper lame employees walked in ready to spent big bucks and nobody gave a single fuck.

They have product but the experience of buying there doesn't leave you at all warm and fuzzy. Not sure if they don't want to be at work or they think they are better than the average newbie. Anyway, buy elsewhere or online if you can. Sorry guys, I'm not there to be friends but at least try to be helpful.

I have driven by this place time after time, finally making a stop because a schoolteacher friend…read moreof mine recommended it. This store is intimidating when you walk in, with tall industrial shelving and narrow aisles, but has so much magic in stock! I came in for this pad of special paper they carry, and ended up walking out with a dozen different items! They have a bit of everything there. It has the art supplies any student would need/want, lots of craft project supplies and ideas. They also had ink bottles from many great companies - I got a phosphorescent ink just for the fun of it. They carry all shapes and sizes of baggu bags and hilarious pencil cases.

They have nearly everything. Craft supplies, art supplies, large selection of various glue, pottery tools, etc. It's local. It's funky. It's cool.

Oh, Wheels Dealer, how you have my heart…read more I came in here on a mission to find a specific car and spent hours just enjoying looking through the loads of cars (and I'm not much of a car person). It's located in a car dealership filled with some of the most kind-hearted people. Seriously, what's in their coffee? Every single person who worked around here was so genuinely kind. It's accessible and easy to find a parking spot upfront. When you walk in, you'll be greeted by Coco, the bird. Don't be alarmed when they go from "hi darling" to a screech while you're digging in the store. The owner, Randy, was a joy. He had a Hot Wheels holiday sweater on and was like a Hot Wheels elf running around. Every question, he answered. He was also extremely knowledgeable about those special cars you are looking for and had like radar sensors to find them. This is definitely a collector's heaven, but if you're like me and want to buy some specific Hot Wheels for some specific kids to shove up their noses or whatever, this is also the place for you. There were several bins filled with used Hot Wheels to dig through and pick out. I was able to get a full construction site out of Hot Wheels! Prices are extremely fair, and the owner also helps you find things in your price bracket. There was no problem when I changed my mind or switched a new Hot Wheel for a used one. He let me just dig around and have a blast. I recommend this place for families, for sure. As for collectors, there were a few collectors who were here while I dug around, and they said this is the spot to go to. So if you're a collector, definitely give this place a look. Not to mention, the collectors here were so incredibly kind and generous with answering more questions I had and sharing the love of Hot Wheels with others.

Small space, tight quarters and while it's easy to get around the store by yourself, if there are more than two or three people, it feels too much and claustrophobic. A lot of figurines with other random, vintage items. Since a lot of the items are in display cases, and it's packed in tightly, it's difficult to see all of the inventory in some areas. I appreciate this store, especially the quality service, but unless you're looking for something really catches your attention or very niche, I found it hard to make a purchase.
