Hub Hobby Center is the place to go for hobby items and RC Cars. In fact they tell us that they are the largest and most complete hobby shop in the Midwest. Both stores carry model trains, radio control toys, model rockets, plastic models, and pinewood derby parts. You can also find classic board games, trading cards games, tabletop games, puzzles, toys, science projects, art and craft kits at this store. This store is great for when you want a toy or game to do together.

The store sometimes offers in-store events that would appeal to families. The Little Canada location has an impressive crawler course for RC Trucks. Watch a video of it on YouTube.
What We Love About Hub Hobby Center
The store has a large selection of hobby, model building and art supplies. The staff is usually very knowledgeable and friendly. They also offer repair services for RC cars. They have been in business for a very long time and that longevity speaks to the reputation that they have built.
Disadvantages
This is not the type of toy store where small kids can be left unchecked. It is stocked floor to ceiling with hobby supplies, and while there are things that would interest small kids, the store is not laid out for play.
We recommend reviewing the store’s return policies before purchase and hold onto your packaging until you are sure you are keeping an item. Some items cannot be returned and all items must be returned in original packaging. Some returns are determined by customer service. You can call (612) 866-9575 (Option #2) on weekdays from 11am-5pm for more help.
