Top Hobby stores in San Jose, United States

This place is amazing! I go every Sunday and sometimes weekdays and AJ runs a very well business! He is very good at keeping things well and running there! Thank you AJ for the wonderful times at Sheldon’s hobbies

Visited this hobby store on a work trip from LA. Definitely a great selection of parts and accessories. Have a few different vehicles that most other hobby stores do not carry. They also have a cool drift truck in the back as well as a mini crawler feature as well. Definitely worth a stop if you're in the San Jose area.

Went here for some paint and found it. Great hobby store if you are into anything in rc. They also have a good selection of models.

No selection of crawler stuff, staff aren’t helpful at all. They have a cool drift track but that’s about it. Staff literally told me they have barely any crawler stuff.

Great spot for all your rc needs. Been coming here since I was a teenager. I pre ordered a kraton 4s 2.5 and they made sure to let me know the minute they came in. I appreciate their attention. I will continue to support them

Love their hobby shop
❤️👀
Drift arena is dope

Friendly n knowledgeable team always ready to answer all questions

Must visit.
Even if you don't plan on purchasing 💯✌️😊😊

It's a good shop with a wide variety of models & figures, and the staff is knowledgeable. I do wish they'd stock more than just Mr Hobby paints, but ultimately I'm just glad to have an accessible shop that's local.

I was excited to visit this place. I live out of town and the place never opened. Please fix the store hours. I waited for half an hour (2:30PM) with 5 other cars also waiting. Everyone left after no one showed up. I'm not sure if I will come back

A fantastic store with great prices and a super helpful and friendly owner. Master grades are always about 10% off compared to other stores and selection has been plentiful as of late. Cannot recommend enough.

Place looks like a dump and pretty messy. But people there are super helpful and friendly. Have already came twice to buy their models. Would definitely go again!

Great local for gunpla and collectibles. Well involved in community activities and super welcoming. Hosts in store contests.

What a cool place! It's so hard to find an real shop anymore where the staff is really into what they do; this is that place. Tons of RC cars, parts, boats, planes, copters and even an indoor track. All of the odds and ends a true hobbyist might need are here.

The ultimate hobby shop, if they don't have it they can order it and put it together for you. Bonus, they have an RC Drift track in the back of the store.

The first thing to note is that the store owner is extremely helpful and knowledgeable on Gundam and many other model kits and figures. If you are just getting started this is the place to get your questions asked. The store is a wee bit cramped but realize that this is a place where some regular customers actually come in and build/paint their model kits. Also realize that stocks are a bit low due to covid, which is understandable. The display case has some great examples of how far you can take the Gunpla hobby. Cannot recommend this place enough, very friendly atmosphere.

Very cool shop, nice Gunpla selection to get you started on a new hobby. I appreciate that the owner was informative & didnt rush me at all; he gave me all the time in the world to look at each model! Even helped me find some cool ones to get me started. Will be back

Great selection for the gunpla fans. The prices are very competitive too. Yes, basically a warehouse with shelves of gundam models. The staff hangs out and build and play games. Very friendly atmosphere.
