“Jeff is great to work with. Brought in several cards for potential PSA grading. Jeff helped me identify which cards to submit and which ones not to submit to PSA. Fantastic service! Thank you!”
“I have been a customer for 30 years and this hobby shop is a gem not just in the city of West Allis but in the country itself in this day and age. Places like this are disappearing, sadly, in the age of e-commerce. That's unfortunate because the in store experience is such a wonderful thing - to browse the aisles, hold the item, consider additional items to complete the purchase. This is disappearing and this place is a throwback to simpler times.”
“Where have you (Hobby Town) been? I was headed to the Aldis and discovered this traditional hobby shop next door! The best STEM education for all types of learners is building things as youth. Models, erector-type sets, science experiments, and popular characters are
available for all ages. Not much in model trains or slot cars, but there is something about putting a plastic model together, following instructions, and developing patience for a longer term outcome. Quite a contrast for child developers (parents) to the chaotic and disconcordant video gaming that reinforces immediate gratificate through exploiting others' work and creating no lasting legacy except impatient anxiety, morbid obesity, and increased childhood lifestyle diseases. Buy or build a model with your child and reap the benefits!”
“Best comic book store in the area hands down. Staff is always incredibly friendly and ready to answer questions. Gundam selection is also quite good for the area”
“Always surprised what your going to walk out with. Like Free Cat butt magnets?? or Free pointer pen to drive the kitty crazy?. Love the promos. Have loved American Science and surplus for years with my husband and son's, now Grown men. 25 years later and you can still spend at least an hour in. ?❤️”

“Staff is friendly and incredibly helpful. I enjoy their selection of coin albums and supplies especially, although I have found a number of great coins for my type albums as well. There is always something fun to look at here.”
“Fair and honest appraisals. I chatted with one of the employees who helped me understand the ins and outs of an estimate. While I ended up not buying anything, they were kind & fair.”

“Was looking for older fabrics for quilt and they had them what a great place to do business with. Also so glad they wrapped my fabric in plastic because when they were delivered mail person put in driveway in rain box was soked but fabric was dry thanks guys.”
“Purchased suede and a belt kit. I wear the belt from the kit. Suede is great. I purchased polyester yarn and wool yarn. I made a basket with some of the polyester yarn. Photos of polyester yarn crocheted white clothesline for a basket. I used Hobby Lobby gold yarn for convertible mitts, mittens extra warmth in winter with a glove or mitten sewed on my coat with sewing thread.”
“Good sales, able 2 pull up a coupon w my charged coupon and that generated additional rewards. I could have saved more had I ordered online but I like the in store experience. Ppl used to come in for classes, mabie busier on evening & wknds?”
“Friendly staff, every person who enters is welcomed. Prices for miniatures are better than some of the o line prices. However, they still aren't the best. Large variety of paints and two walls covered in shelves of miniatures. Tables for playing towards the back of the store next to the restroom. A paint "bar" for you to come sit and build or paint your minis whenever they are open. The atmosphere is great, the staff is welcoming overall rating 5/5. (Below are pictures from a tournament I played in held here for no admission fee!)”
“Jeff is great. Immediate initial response, texted photos and received a time/date to bring items in person for him to purchase. Fair and transparent price. Happy”
“I love Michael's. I'm not a big arts & crafts guy, but they have materials and products I buy (Posca paint markers, for example) that inspire me to try new things. Various plain, boring items in the house are now painted. I saw a big hot glue gun, something I have ideas & needs for but you won't see these just anywhere. I've been going to this location for MANY years and everyone is extremely friendly. The checker today was young but knowledgeable, she brought the best coupon up on my phone, and patiently entered various phone numbers & email addresses my wife or I have until she found the rewards account. Store is immaculate, well lit and highly organized.
Great place if you need a bunch of stuff, or nothing at all. Have fun.”
“highly recommend. zeek. is really friendly. has amazing items in his shop. even buys items from people as well. took my aew collection there. made a great deal in a matter of minutes. 5 stars. Come check out the store in South ridge.”
“AJ Collectibles has been a great business. Adam, Chris and Matt at the Hartford store have been amazing to say the least. Purchasing hobby boxes, buying singles and packs. To them taking there time and run some of my personal collection on Facebook. If u have got this far and are still reading this? Just Stop! AJs is Great! I need say no more.”

“Our neighborhood Michael's is always a draw during the holidays. They had deals on ribbon ?, Christmas candles, two small Christmas trees for my front porch and some gold and silver flowers arrangement accents. Also, I purchased Christmas cards and I was surprised there was not a bit selection of them and they were $9.99 for ten cards...they are nice, but not that nice. The check out line moved along and I was happy when I walked out and all projects completed!”
“The new space is just the best. Lots of room, huge tables and banners for tcg/rpg/wargame events. At least 3 really big and very clean ♿️ friendly bathrooms. If you liked the old store in the same mall, you'll love the new space.”
