At Scale Model Supplies, hobbies are our business.

You'll find an extensive selection of hobby items at Scale Model Supplies!

We are a family-owned small business in a BIG store! Our inventory is enormous, so we may have exactly what you are looking for! While we specialize in model railroading, we also have GUNDAM/Bandai model kits and plastic model kits of slot cars, rockets, boats and ships, planes and other aircraft and armor model kits, too. We have die-cast cars, aircraft and tanks! You'll find stamps and coin collecting supplies, paint supplies and more! Because our inventory is so extensive and many items sell so quickly, we can't possibly offer an up-to-the-minute list every item in stock here on our site, but you are welcome to come in and browse — or call us!

Our store is currently located in what used to be a large, lower-level bowling alley near University and Lexington Avenues. But come spring 2027, we are excited our new one-story 'warehouse' building in Arden Hills will have about the same square footage, and plenty of off-street parking!

In preparation for our store's move to Arden Hills next spring, it was decided the SLOT CAR RACEWAY had to go (and so it won't be at the new location).

A HUGE thank you to all our customers who wrote, and continue to share, 5-star Google reviews of Scale Model Supples! VERY much appreciated!

Let us help you find an item you might be looking for or give us a call and we'll check our inventory for you. You are always welcome to stop in and browse – and if you want some help or suggestions, please just ASK! We hope to see you soon!
