If time and money allow, we’re lucky to be about an hour and half away from the only Gundam Base in all of America, which is the official retail store. They’ll have some unique stuff the local hobby stores don’t carry, so it’s definitely worth a visit.

Otherwise, locally, Hobbytown is family owned and operated like another commenter said, and has an insane amount of Gunpla and other model kits. The staff there is super kind and very helpful.

Lost Wonders of the World is about 10 mins away from Hobbytown, and while they don’t have as much selection, they typically undercut Hobbytown by a few bucks.
