Die-cast cars/hobbies store in SoCal?
Hello guys.
I'm looking for a shop in SoCal that sells a large variety of diecast car models, mostly 1:18, 1:24, or 1:43.
Two stores that I go to are Autobacs in Stanton and Prestige Hobbies in Anaheim. Both have pretty big collections, but I want to see if there are any other options.
The small shops in malls carry limited stock, and they're usually full of cheap brands like Mattel or Jadatoys. I'm looking for things like Auto Art, Minichamps, and Kyosho.
Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the help everyone!
Tamiya HQ? They have a retail section? I thought that's just their HQ office.
I don't know if you're talking about hobby city? On Beach Blvd. That's where Prestige Hobbies is at, a bunch of hobby stores together. That's like right next to Stanton
Thanks, I will check that out.
I will check this place out as well. Thanks.

Hello all,
thanks for all the tips! I went to most of the stores, didn't find what I was looking for, but definitely found some other stuff that I didn't expect to find. Thanks a bunch guys!
btw I was looking for a 1:18 2005 Audi A4 sedan made by Minichamps. Turns out the color I want is just starting to be produced now.

Go to the Block in Orange, there is a cart where they sell different die cast cars. The guy will usually give you a pretty good deal. It's just outside that huge Hawaiian shop.
