I have known and done business with Lee and his family for nearly 25 years and you won’t find a better selection of quality products nor will you ever find the level of knowledge and passion the family puts into this business…. This is by far the best Hobby Shop I have ever been in and always excited to stop and see the new arrivals…
Fantastic store! The staff go above and beyond to help their customers!
Nice place helpful staff interesting products
I have been using Hobbytown since i have gotten in to the RC hobbie. The staff on this are are very friendly and helpful. I have made all my purchases at this location do to the staff. Q
Neat little store! The guys working there seemed very knowledgeable.All in all I liked it!
They have very helpful and friendly staff. The store has a great selection and prices. I will defflintely be coming back.
Staff seems like theyre in a bad mood, not a very good selection of rocket parts. I actually recommend going to scale reproductions if you are not finding what you want here. Lots of supply from them. Picture shows what type of stuff I got from there. If you want the smaller build kits they have those at hobbytown USA but mostly no parts
Great store they Were very helpful answered all are questions and never rushed us even though they had 20min till closing when we popped in to buy rc car. Definitely worth drive to shop there
Very helpful and friendly. Tons of different hobbies on sale. Will be going back on the regular.
Been coming here since I was a child. Still great 25 years later
Had a great experience at this place also.
This place is awesome. The staff is friendly and very helpful. They also have everything you need for your rcs.
This is my favorite local hobby store and has been for years. Great selection of RC cars, trucks, boats and planes. Definitely my first place Id choose for spare parts to be in stock for most popular hobby RC stuff.
The staff was very nice and friendly. After my purchase I asked questions regarding other things I owned and they said that I could return with them and they would order the items that I needed to repair them and tune them up with. I had done business with them in years past but thought that they had closed due to the big box stores taking everything over. I will definitely be returning even though things may be a couple dollars more just for the knowledge and personal service and better selection that they have. Right now businesses like this one needs our help because they often get overlooked.
I have been going here for years. Their selection is second to none and the staff is always incredibly helpful.
Very nice and extremely clean. Friendly and very knowledge. Lee was very helpful and even put in the grub screw I bought for the pinion on my traxxas motor. Thanks Lee awesome job.
Has the best toys. I highly recommend visiting this place.
Well stocked store, plenty of hobby activities for everyone. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable.
Great when open. HobbyTown website says theyre open today. Called number, answering machine says hours are 10-5. Drive an hour with two kids. Theyre closed. Small print out says theyre closed New Years Eve and New Years day. Person actually looked at us from inside the store and didnt attempt to acknowledge us or say sorry.
Fun store. Has avaeything you need for model cars, planes, trains, boats. They have RC everything, gas and electric. I believe they even repair rc cars too? Not sure. But amazing store
Love the store and go there for almost all my bandai needs
I highly recommend this store for any hobby needs. I have a six-year-old son with a high-end RC car that he crashes frequently and these guys are so friendly and extremely helpful with suggestions and service. Typically with these things, its a very easy quick fix and they will either line you up with the correct parts or occasionally do it for you. Colin and River where the gentlemen that helped me out today truly appreciate their time and effort getting me racing again! We also got another rocket which is such a blast. Give this store try you definitely wont regret it!
Lots of Gundam and a friendly staff.
Plenty of stock clean friendly people
Great selection, good prices, owners are knowledgeable and care about customers.
Amazing store with a ton of parts for r/c cars knowledgeable staff
I walked into this store on a whim, and I loved it. Theyve got so many great things in here come I will come back and do some more shopping.
Good service. Employees are polite and helpful. As I was recovering from a serious double surgical intervention at the time, the employees were very helpful with bringing some products to the chair (I couldnt stay on my feet for long) I was sitting in so I could determine what exactly I needed. It was tedious and time consuming for everyone involved, but they were patient throughout.
Its always a great experience walking in. The staff are knowledgeable, and very kind. They obviously take a lot of pride in their business, the storefront is always immaculate. A fantastic place to go for any hobby. The stock is always rotating, so every visit is a little different. I would give it more stars if I were able to!
Thought I bought a T-Maxx truck from another store. Tell them that it didnt want to start they said they would not fix it. Call HobbyTown they said bring it up there they would look at it for us about 10 minutes later are Traxxas truck was running and everything thank you very much for your help.
Fun place to go buy slot cars.
Knowledgeable and helpful. Perfect score for service.
Its cool for kids 😉
An absolutely lovely store. Never have I left empty handed! The Gunpla section is the best in all of Louisville, with some kits being as low as $10. Fair pricing and a lovely atmosphere. I highly recommend!
Great store for the hobby enthusiast. From model cars to ship to planes. They have railroad supplies and radio controlled models. I also noticed some metal detectors. The place is clean and organized.
Employees were fantastic and took good care of me as a customer
Great selection for many hobbies. Lots of RC and model railroading accesories.
The staff at this store, were absolutely the most rude people I have ever encountered. I know it’s Christmas and you’re busy but that gives you no right to be nasty to people that are planning on buying products from your store. I will absolutely never ever return to shop at this store again. Also, if you do plan on buying something at this store, understand, the return policy sucks. In-store credit, really? Absolutely ridiculous in today’s world.
Great local shop with a large variety of items for kids and adults to explore their current and future hobby interests. The prices are fair and the shop owner and family are friendly and helpful. I always look forward to going in. Being a woodworker and having the more than occasional need for CA glue, I found their selection and pricing to be second to none. Ill be in again shortly to cover off upcoming birthday gift needs for my sons.
Friendly, knowledgeable, and always has great prices. This is the only place I shop for Gundams.
I got good help because I know nothing about rc cars
Very friendly staff willing to help you or let you browse at youre own pace
Excellent. Great customer service.
Lots of stuff reasonably priced.
Love this place. Nice people. Stick to local and stop buying from online
Great folks, great selection. My go-to place for RC or other fun stuff for me or the kids. They have a pretty good selection of STEM type learning kits as well.
Stocked full of goodness! Cant go wrong with hobbies. Staff is knowledgeable as well.
I cant walk in this place without,walking out with something. I feel like a kid again once i walk thru the doors. Glad its still around and in the same location.
By far the best hobby shop around. Toys galore with educated and knowledgeable staff.
Friendly staff, fun selection.
Good assortment of hobby material. Not so many options of plastic model however they carry the majority of Bandai Star Wars kits
Good section
Great service
Friendly helpful people with so many different hobbies to explore. From rc to old school build yourself. Love shopping here for all my model supplies.
Clean and organized. Staff was very friendly and helpful taking me right to what I was looking for and helping me find it rather than just telling me the area.
Family run store for all your hobby and A/C needs. Family that owns the store is very helpful and knowledgeable
They Never have what I go in after (usually hpi or losi parts ++) and almost everything Is severely overpriced. My biggest issue with this store aside of price is how inaccessible the rc parts are to the guest. There is nothing worse than going into a store and having to ask to see every tiny thing because its all behind the counter. I want to be able to walk in and look around, read packaging so on. In my opinion they are loosing buisness based on this alone because who wants to ask to see every tiny thing? (Not me for sure). Take some advice, if you want a good hobby shop for RC related items check out asylum extreme (indiana store in particular is awesome) or scale reproductions because they are better suited for rc needs. If you are looking for quick traxxas parts then hobbytown might be your place.
Hobby Town has the best gunpla selection in Louisville. Friendly staff. Always knowledgeable about the products they sell.
Nice store. Lots of cool stuff.
Very nice store, very clean and organized. The staff in my option was very helpful I dont get why everyone has bad reviews on staff or policy it is what it is. Me and my family had a very good experience in our time there, will definitely return in the future!
Nice hobby shop, friendly staff, but they never seem to have that 1 part I need. call first to make sure they have what you want if its not a standard rtr. no drone stuff.
Bought a SCX Rally Extreme slot car system for my nephews birthday yesterday. Played it for about 10 minutes and then the power supply stopped working. Tried to get an exchange for the same product today and cashier refused because it was opened!? How do you know if the product was defective without opening it? And why on earth would I want to exchange something that was never opened with the same product that was never opened!? Your return policy is dumb and too strict!
Dont listen to whiny customer reviews, these guys are great. Yeah, sometimes things you buy might be broken from the manufacturer, not hobbytowns fault. They work to right whats wrong. Great guys and super helpful. I had an issue with wiring some led lights to my yeti score body and one of the guys offered to do it for me. Awesome customer service.
Great places with a lot to choose from. If you are into RC, trains and just about any hobby.
Owner refused to allow $1,000.00 item box to be opened to see the product (Quad). Apparently, others have opened new boxes and never purchased. I have purchased more than $2,000 from this store in 3 years and know them well and they know me well. Very poor customer service to tell a customer they cannot see what’s in the box”. I am a respected SVP of a large regional bank. They need to amend this practice or continue to struggle with this business.
Convenient location to I-265. Friendly and attentive staff. They only carry Testors MM and Citadel paints in bottles, but have Tamiya rattle cans. They have a limited selection of aircraft and armor models, but they carry a wide range of the types of aircraft (airliners, military, etc). I recommend a visit.
Very friendly and has a great selection of items that i couldnt find anywhere else i highly recommend this great shop
Best place to pickup almost any kind of hobby craft. Great selection and prices.
Store is very clean and has everything you need. the staff is knowledgeable but does not hound you around the store. if you need a question answered, youve got to ask.
A great hobby shop .
When i went there I was not expecting much in the way of Gunpla, i was very wrong and spent so long in there that i actually made my wife mad, 10/10 would recommend.
Tom says Great store awesome customer service for my hobby addiction.
One of hubbys favorite local hobby stores
Great service and great prices! Purchased a Estes Proto X SLT and it works great! Store carries plenty of replacement parts. Staff was very friendly and I look forward to doing more business with them!
Great selection at good prices, staff knowledgeable
Had a great layout. And plenty of items
Good service and nice selection
Best hobby store anywhere. Top notch customer service, very knowledgeable and helpful.
Neat place
Knowledgeable staff. Good selection!
Great place to find something to do...without spending a fortune...unless you want to...Owners are the best...
Store would not help with getting my truck back together. Worst experience and will not ever go back!
As with another review-Buyer Beware. Bought 1 quad copter, would not even get off the ground. Had to drive back to the store=isnt working properly. They did allow me to trade to another, problems with it. After problems with the second one I said I just wanted my money back-Oh No, not our Policy. The posting of this Policy is on a cabinet you would have to be on your knees to read, the second is covered up as soon as you put merchanside on the counter. They state the web site with their name is not theirs, but they want to quote from a return policy on it that basically says, if you open the box (which you have to do so see if it works) there is no return.NOTE: IF IT ISNT YOUR WEB SITE, HOW CAN IT BE YOUR POLICY?If you want to talk in circles, buy something from them. I got more information and possible help from the manufacturer. It appears the battery operated gizmos have a bad track record from them.I have it back, do not know if it will work
Great store and great people. Dont listen to petty reviews.
I came in wanting a blade 230s bind n fly... They didnt have it but they had ready to fly... My hobby card wouldnt work there because it was out of lexington...but the owner let me check it out an i wanted it even more... He held a good conversation with me made me feel welcomed an at home! Which they failed to do in lexington. He even made up for the hobby card not working buy giving me a discount you can tell his interest is to take care of his customers!!! I really enjoyed my visit an will always drive a hour to come see him an deal with anyone else!!! Such a great guy... He trys to save you money not to get what he can get out of you!!! I would recommend all my friends to come to this hobby shop!
I called them for stadium truck 2.2 wheels and was told yeah, we got em and tires too. I showed up and was presented with touring car wheels and nothing else I needed. NOT AWESOME SERVICE!!!
Bobby here, love this store and all the great service these people do. when it comes to newbies in the rc world they have all the great traxxas products to get you started. Tons of great priced models and Gunpla, The track racers they have all good deals on upgrades and hop ups from the venom batteries to all traxxas hop ups! love this store and the people who work there. they take care of every customer that comes through the doors. theyre willing to work with you to make a problem right. I dont get why there are so many lame customer reviews over the slightest mistake. Theyve worked with tons of people while ive been wondering around in there and in my option they do the best work and customer service of all the shops in Louisville!
I go here for great selection of Gunpla kits. The staff are always polite and helpful as well.
They have Awesome service!! Lee is always so helpful and their selection of Airsoft is incredible-- You need to check it out!!
A very cool store that probably has something for your hobby fix whether you need an Estes rocket, parts or an RC airplane.
They have a bunch of cool stuff and friendly staff
This is the best rc store in Louisville. I live in okolona, Louisville scale reproduction is like 3 miles from my home. But I optionally drive about 10 miles just to come here and get the customer service and appreciation that is deserved to a loyal customer. They never get a part that I ask for wrong they regularly restock parts as needed to keep parts in house and lower pit times. And there parts are cheaper. I legitimately can say that rc parts and anything rc related is cheaper here. All rc heads should shine here.
Great place and very friendly
The best Hobbytown that Ive been to. The staff has always been helpful and willing to order what I need if it isnt in stock.
They are not very helpful unless you ask them very specifically what you want to know/have/fix/buy. They are cool people though just shy maybe lol
Best place and prices Ive found with gundam model kits. This store is amazing!
