Hello Builders and Hobby Lovers,

Thank you for your loyalty and support and we are bringing some good news for you following the guidance of the Canadian federal government: The GST/HST break：

Only the following items will be available for the tax break:

All Gundam HG kits
All SD Gundam (MGSD Excluded)
All Entry Grade Kits

For a detailed list of tax-break items, please visit HERE

From December 14, 2024, to February 15, 2024, you will not be charged for GST/HST for qualifying items in our store. Since our store mainly carries assembly model kits and all of them should have a recommended age on their box, it will be following the guidance as quoted from the Government of Canada:

Toys, toy sets and toy systems that either:

i. Imitate another item, whether real or imaginary

ii. Involve building, creating or assembling structures, objects or models by using pieces, parts, materials or modelling compound

iii. Involve sorting, stacking or organizing pieces, parts or materials

These types of children's toys qualify if they are intended for learning or play by children under 14 years old . Toys marketed for children below 14 (for example, a toy recommended for children ages 8 and up) would also qualify.

Pre-orders are not qualified for this exemption.

If you believe that some of the items should be tax-free but it is not, please feel free to reach out to us by emailing not.a.hobbyshop@gmail.com, we are a small business by a limited manpower after all, we will make a mistake for sure.

Cheers and early Merry Christmas
