Slo-pine Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Passing by Vancouver this weekend. Any current hobby shop recommendations? Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-Neu- Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 There are really three major ones. The largest is Imperial Hobbies down on Sea Island (located by the airport, but not easily accessible via transit). It has the largest collection of kits, a decent selection of Aftermarket and books. Also there's a more general aviation store a few doors down thats worth a look. Its the number one place to go. Second is Magic Box which is on Arbutus. Its got a decent selection of kits but more aftermarket. I feel however they tend to focus more heavily on 48 and 35 scale stuff. Finally there's Burnaby hobbies which is in... Burnaby. They are smaller but have a more eclectic collection, and good staff. Its worth a drive. Depending on what you're interested in, I'd go to either it or Magic Box. Hope that help.

Slo-pine Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 Thanks so much! I managed to check out Burnaby Hobbies on the way by. Neat little shop, lots of interesting stuff. Next time hopefully I'll be able to check out the others. Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
