About Hobby Zone

A pop culture and cosplay shop in Unit 4 at 22 Polaris Place in Appleby, Invercargill, with an online store as well. The shop stocks an extensive range of cosplay props and costumes, anime merchandise, clothing and fantasy swords, including replica swords from World of Warcraft and Dragon Ball Z. It also sells trading card games, such as Riftbound and the One Piece Card Game, and booster display boxes. Some products, including the gel ball blasters, need an ID check before sale. We hear there is a 20% off sale at the moment, and the website shows sale prices on several items.

The listing has its own website, and buyers can order pop culture toys and anime merchandise online. The shop's best-known lines are its swords, props and trading cards, and the website's product pages show those in most detail. Customers say the range is extensive, and the shop is a place to find the costume piece or card set a fan is looking for.
