This place has been my son’s Christmas gifts go to place for years, but this time I just don’t understand why the lady greeted all the other white people who walked into the store except for me. I couldn’t come up with any better reasons except that I’m not white? (To the owner: Thank you very much for sharing me your inclusive customer service idea which is asking a customer to say hi to a staff first. I will make sure all my non-white friends know this and say hi to your staff to get certain level of customer service. I hope after that she would greet us like we were her children because apparently this was how she greeted my white husband every time he walked in without saying hi. I will change to 5 stars because I can’t agree more with your advice and I apologize I didn’t greet your employees in a toy shop as a customer

When I went there to get my many paint by Numbers and AMT model kits for my boys the staff was extra knowledgeable and a sweet young lady named Ravyn always made me happy to be in her store she was very welcoming and warm and was always so helpful... Made each shopping experience a pleasure

Huge selection of toys, drawing/painting supplies, puzzles, games, model kits, and terrain modeling (such as for train sets). If you're looking for a gift, especially for someone creative, do yourself a favour and check out Hobby and Toy Central at the Boardwalk.

I dropped by today and wanted to get some model kits/gunpla for me and my friends to get into the hobby and Dylan at the store was extremely kind and helpful and gave me a wonderful crash course on it. For anime fans there's Gundam, Pokemon, and Tokusatsu model kits among others. I don't write reviews usually but this was too positive an experience not to. I saw the staff being similarly helpful to others. Great place and great staff!

Friendly helpful staff and a great selection of Gunpla and other hobby materials. Plenty of other neat hobbies and toys to be found inside at reasonable prices!

Love visiting this place, everything you want if your crafty and creative. Gifts for children and adults. Puzzles. Games etc. Always nice even if your just browsing around area ..check it out

Awesome place to go for gift ideas, and hobbies. The folks who work here are always extremely friendly and knowledgeable. It's a cool shop to stop in and just browse as their inventory seems to constantly be changing.

    Oh no Wendy! That sounds horrible and I can't imagine that was the reason. I will share this with the staff just as a reminder. We welcome everyone into our store equally. Please say hi to us when you come in next.
