We've been in the online shopping business for more than 20 years. During that time we have built one of New Zealand's most popular online shopping sites, delivering thousands of orders every day to Kiwis up and down the country. We employ a hardworking team of over 120 full-time staff in New Zealand.  We love online shopping and have grown our business one customer at a time - focusing on great service, super-fast delivery (overnight throughout NZ) and holding tons of stock of the coolest products on the planet. Over half a million people purchase from Mighty Ape every year, check out our Auction Feedback to see what they say :)    

Hobby City had humble beginnings when it was established in central Auckland back in 1981. Through a combination of hobbyist passion, dedication to customer service and lots of hard work, the business has matured into one of the most iconic and well-respected hobby shops in New Zealand. We’ve moved a few times and have had to evolve with the ever-changing hobby landscape, but our core values remain the same. Since 2011, we’ve been nestled beside Mount Wellington- just minutes away from the Southern Motorway. Our spacious locale means that we get to offer the largest range of hobby products in the country, with nearly 20,000 unique items available in-store and online. This includes plastic kits, diecast models, trains, boats, RC cars and aircraft, tools, motors, spare parts and heaps, heaps more. Whether you’re just getting into hobbies or you’re a long-time veteran with a garage full of toys- we’ve got something for you. As we’re hobby enthusiasts ourselves, it’s very important to us that the products we sell are of top-notch quality and fully supported by their manufacturers and suppliers. That’s why we only sell brands that are tried and trusted: Hyperion, Traxxas, Hornby, Tamiya, Futaba, Spektrum, Kyosho, Parkzone, Airfix, Scalextric, AutoArt and HobbyMaster, just to name a few. If we wouldn’t advise using it, we won’t sell it.
