Island Collectibles is very far away. It is ~30+ km from midtown. You need to drive ~1 hours from Manhattan if the traffic is good.

Hobby Emporium is very good. It's a good hour and a half out of Boston proper though. When are you going to be there? I will be there this weekend, perhaps I can give you a ride and have a good excuse to go even though my girlfriend probably won't give loan me her car for that during such a short trip.

Hobby Emporium isn't hard to find, but it is a long drive. A good landmark if you are asking anyone for directions is to tell them you want to go to the Pheasant Lane Mall. Hobby Emporium isn't there, it's across the street, but at least it will get you to the general area.
