Re: Anyone go to Pegasus Hobbies??

They do have a lot of stuff. I was there last month. drove up from the old pasadena/glendale area. Really wasnt worth the long drive through some of LA's conjested freeways. I used to go to their whittier shop but thats been closed years ago. They have tons and tons of kits but i could get those at the hobby shops closer to my place. They do have a variety of lowrider wheels and some accessories. As for building supplies, well... i my LHS have more to offer. They ignored me most of the time i was there but that was because they were short on workers. All in all, the only thing i was able to buy were a set of chrome on gold lowrider wheels and their last Tamiya wax bottle. I could have gotten everything else cheaper at my LHS and saved on gas. Only other thing that caught my eyes was a piece of vynel cloth for making a ragtop on cars. I havent seen it anywhere else and might drive back for that, although right now $3.29 is a bit too much for me to spend on gas to drive there. My opinion, if you're looking for plastic model car stuff then stick to your LHS, but they might be worth it for Diecasts and RCs.
