This is my number one favourite hobby shop in Toronto. I asked so many silly questions about the model building and painting. They always be patience and friendly to answer me. Never ever disappointed... See more

The staff here are so experienced with the products, it's awesome to have a conversation with someone who can help you learn and be a better model maker. Thank you for existing, I don't know where I would be with my gunpla, if it wasn't for these guys.

Speedy delivery

Speedy delivery, but I was a little saddened that they used a delivery service instead of the personal delivery method of the past.I miss the chance to exchange pleasantries with the owner. I guess that goes to show how much they've grown.

Great Hobby Shop. I'd Recommend

A great hobby shop that has almost everything I would want. They have good sales on Black Friday, although none of the tools I wanted were on sale. They have a good selection of Gunpla and other kits. They also have a good selection of tools.

I'm giving it 4 stars because shipping is taking a while and they don't carry all the Gunprimer stuff I want like the White and Gray Balancers, and they don't carry Sanding Sponge sets like the one from Dspiae.

I’ve been dealing with Argama for about a year and a half or so and have never been disappointed. The selections and prices are excellent and they frequently receive new stock (but need to stay on top of the new stock because they go out as fast as they come in) They have outstanding staff, friendly and accommodating, they really want happy customers. There are several hobby stores in the Ontario area but Argama is my go to. We’ll done Argama!

Got a good deal

Got a good deal, had it shipped to me quickly, and it was what I ordered. The staff being polite with a question was the icing on the cake.

Very timely and helpful Q&A.

Very timely and helpful Q&A.
Shipped and arrived early.
Nothing was bent or missing as other sites I've ordered from have damaged the box or shipped it without leaving a mess of runners.

One of my number one hobby shops

Honestly Argama hobby has always been amazing from day one for me. They have good communication skills and even just in person are so welcoming. I choose to go to this hobby shop a while back as a fluke find for a kit. Been shopping there ever since. Even got my Daughter building kits now! She came in with me one time and she was hooked and Will and the family were so welcoming to her. She still talks about it to this day!. All around Great prices , nice people and a good family run hobby shop!. Thanks for everything Argama Hobby!.
