All you need to know about Canada’s Largest Hobby Store

"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."  

There is no going around it, hobbies are important for enjoying adulthood. Just as kids need playtime as a part of their growth and development, so too do adults need fun hobbies that will awaken their inner child. This need to balance work with play saw the emergence of many hobby stores worldwide. 

What is a hobby store?

A hobby store/hobby shop sells recreational items and crafts supplies for hobbyists. Some of these items include RC boats, helicopters, trucks and cars and planes, drones, and slot cars. Most also sell parts and repair tools for these items. 

They may stock miscellaneous items for other hobbies as well. Many parents would also use these stores as an opportunity to find a hobby that they could bond with their children over. The ability to purchase an RC car or plane, along with tools that they could use to pull them apart, upgrade parts of the engine, and put them back together, is something many kids used to enjoy. 

However, with the popularity of tablets, phones, and video games, many kids have long since stopped becoming interested in physical toys. Unfortunately, this has led to the demise of many hobby stores, and hobby stores, in general, have become a dying breed. 

There are a few that are still around today, and continue to stay open and alive for hobbyists that are still interested. One such store is Big Boys with Cool Toys!

Canada’s Largest Hobby Store: Big Boys with Cool Toys

Big Boys with Cool Toys is Canada’s largest hobby store. We sell some of the top brands in the RC industry, such as ARRMA and Traxxas. We have a newly-renovated, 7000 square-foot showroom, filled with a hobbyist’s wildest dreams. 

Our showroom allows you to be able to see your favorite brands of off-road vehicles outside the box on display. This allows you to have a close look at the vehicles before purchasing them.
