Homewood Toy & Hobby Shop

My son and I had a blast in Homewood Hobby looking around at all the different toys and trying them out as well. A very nice little toy store. A hidden gem of sorts.

We make sure that we visit everytime we're in the Birmingham area - they have a tremendous selection of great toy and gift items packed into one space. It's a kid's dream!

Another fun aspect unique to this store is the toy model department, which reminds those of us WAY past twentysomething what is was like to build a model plain, train or car (or even an entire city) in our younger years before such things as computers and the Ieverything existed.

I took my children there when they were small. Now, I'm taking my grandchildren. They were amazed when I took them the first time. Now, they will do almost anything to get the opportunity to go.

Great place to visit for all of your hobby and educational toy needs, with a great loving and helpful staff. Good source for all of your train, r/c plans and car needs. A nice neighborhood hobby shop a great asset to the Homewood community.

If you can think of it and it's a toy, odds are that Homewood Toy and Hobby has it. I love browsing through their aisles- you never know what you're going to find and there's always something new. Their customer service is great, too.

This toys store has the feeling of the toy stores we went to when I was young. They try to carry the out-of-the-ordinary toys. We got my son a wooden scooter that you wouldn't find at the mass merchandisers, and he loves it.

The staff is friendly and helpful. If there is a toy you are trying to find, they are more than happy to see what they can do if it is offered by one of their vendors.

Homewood Toy and Hobby has a wonderful collection of classic, imaginative, quality toys, that are hard to find at other toys stores. Their toys foster imagination and creativity and last for years. They also have a large collection of model cars and trains for older children. The service has always been helpful and friendly.

I was looking for a simple pounding board for my son and couldn't find it anywhere. I found it here. They have all of the toys I grew up playing with before everything required batteries to be fun.

The prices were not inflated because of location and were comparable to prices I found on the internet.

PROS: Classic toys
CONS:

Homewood Toy and Hobby has a nice selection of toys for newborns to older kids and a big section for adult hobbyists (especially model builders). You more...
