About Us
We built P-Rex Hobby to provide model builders and figure collectors across North America with the widest selection of Japanese kits and figures—often the earliest on the continent.
Based in Vancouver, Canada, we serve customers across Canada and the United States—from Gunpla and scale figures to hobby tools and collectibles. Everything we sell is 100% genuine, sourced through official manufacturer channels, and we're built to be a reliable, one-stop home for dedicated builders and collectors.
