What You'll Find

HobbyTown Orland Park operates as a hybrid hobby store with a primary focus on RC racing (Mini-Z and Micro platforms with back-to-back race nights) rather than traditional Warhammer tabletop gaming, despite being a GW retailer
The store features a 6-foot Gundam display model, described in reviews as 'one of a few stateside apparently'
Recent store layout changes significantly reduced model kit selection (from numerous aisles to half an aisle), tabletop game and RPG sections, and train inventory, while expanding the Warhammer section to approximately 25% of retail space despite an official GW store being located less than a mile away

Tips From Regulars

First Time Here

The store hosts event days and intro experiences (like the '30 minute fantasy soldier set' event mentioned in reviews). Call ahead to ask about upcoming Warhammer learn-to-play sessions or narrative events for new players.

Pro Tip

Staff members like Nick and Tito provide personalized attention and expert knowledge about Warhammer products. Don't hesitate to ask for recommendations when selecting starter sets or special orders.

What To Expect

Note that the store has shifted focus heavily toward Warhammer in recent years, with dedicated Warhammer retail space now occupying about 25% of the store. Traditional tabletop gaming and RPG sections have been reduced, so verify current inventory before special trips.

Money Saver

Special orders are held for only 3 days before restocking to shelves. If ordering limited-edition Warhammer boxes, arrange to pick up immediately or designate someone to collect it promptly to avoid losing your reservation.

HobbyTown stocks Citadel paints and has expanded their Warhammer section significantly. Check clearance sales regularly for discounts on paints and models.
