    I've seen the signage but never stopped in. 65 y.o. boomer used to build model kits as a kid in the 60s. My older brother got me started on it. I WILL be stopping in soon! PS I grew up in this city (Southgate) and moved back here some years ago. It is noteworthy to state that this location (building) was at one time one of the BEST hardware stores ever. Grand Hardware....family busines that was there until the 2000s and SORELY MISSED. How cool that it's a great store again. Make Southgate Great Again! Sorry couldn't help myself. Thanks for the video I may have never gone in there!

    I’ve been to all of the Nankin shops and the thing that has always impressed me is the staff. They are all knowledgeable in so many areas and always willing to help you out. And they willingly we try to locate what you need at either one of their four stores, a supplier or even a competitor. Ypsi has been my go to store since it opened and is one of the main reasons I’ve stayed in the RC hobby. They are the best!

    That's my aile right there train stuff. When I see EZ tracks that gets me excited that's my brand I know my scale tracks right from the bottom. I'm keeping my eye out for an Bachmann EZ track Ho set. If you don't mind me saying you sound like you would make a good train friend if you were into model trains. I would be more than happy to have lots of train/railroad. Good day

    I have a few models,( mostly Nascar) a pick up, and a SR-71 Blackbird model that I can't seem to get the landing gear to stay where they're supposed to. I've got a '67' Chevelle still in the box I got off of Amazon a few years ago.

    I like to say I'm mostly a car modeler but I'll build anything, and I build a lot of WW2 anything especially planes, my family has history with the war so being educated about it I have a personal connection so anything ww2 is part of my history, I do like ww1 planes and tanks also, but I've built everything from cars to motorcycles military, Warhammer, haven't done a Gundam yet but I know if I build one I'll be hooked, I already have a house full of model kits that I'm probably not gonna build in my life time, but I still buy em of course I'll stack under my bed or anywhere now lol, my attic is over flowing so yea😂
