When the store first opened it was the first hobby shop in Jackson Township. In 1973 the store moved to County Line Rd, where is stood until it was demolished because of the 4 lane highway expansion project. It then relocated to the Bennetts Mills Plaza where it is currently. The store moved to its current location in the early 1990s.
