This new store on state Route 410 has RC monster trucks, science kits and other toys
Bonney Lake has a new hobby shop that sells radio-controlled vehicles.
Plateau R.C. & Hobby at 21107 state Route 410 opened its doors earlier this month. The store is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.
Customers can expect to spend up to $1,000 at the store. A little RC vehicle, also known as a chunky, can cost about $6. An RC monster truck, such as an X-Maxx, can cost about $1,000.
The store, which is more than 1,000 square feet, also sells RC parts, paint and other materials that can customize a vehicle. Other toys, including science kits and building block toys, are also available for purchase.
Bonney Lake resident Paul Pukis co-owns the store. He and his co-owner are into the hobby — they wanted to open the store to cater to the RC community.
The store was previously a tattoo parlor.
