Wife and I come by every few months to check out pops and anything else that might be floating around. Really like coming here. Owner is friendly and isnt pushy in any way. Well except for that Lightsaber the wife was drooling over! πŸ˜‚Always a pleasure coming here.

Walked into this store with my 5 year old wanting a toy experience that wasn’t a big box store. This place was perfect. Impeccably organized, we had a fun time exploring the collectibles. My 5 year old loves imaginext figures, and was thrilled to find boxes of them at reasonable prices. We walked out with 5 figures for $15 and couldn’t be happier. I also found a set of vintage muppet/McDonald’s glasses that everyone had in the 80’s, took it home to my husband who was thrilled! Reasonably priced, support your local business, I will be coming back.

This is one of those places that collectors should frequent often, because youll never know what Ken, the owner, will get in next. As a collector of many toys, he always has something I want at fair prices. He makes great deals, and is very patient. Everyone should definitely make the effort to try this place out.

Love this place! A wonderful selection and variety of toys and collectibles for both in box and out of box collectors. They also have an impressive selection of cards both for casual and higher end collectors. Came here to see what it was about and definitely not disappointed. The owner is both knowledgable and a really nice guy to have a good conversation with. Definitely looking forward to giving this place tons of business!

Pretty cool suburban store, with big city prices. It has about a quarter of the inventory compared to Wax Pax and prices about three times higher. And unlike Wax Pax there is no bargaining allowed. Still, I found a few cool items. After price checking on eBay I found I did get one good deal. The three items I regretted not buying there were quickly and much less expensively found online as well. Still there are great things going for this place. The owner was very friendly and the store is very well organized. Great variety for a smaller place. Id still say the big negative was the pricing. It was even higher on many toy lines than the prices youd find downtown. There were even items still available in stock online at half the price. Simply making the customer feel that they could be getting a bargain goes a Long Way. Still a 4 star experience. I recommend checking it out highly, just dont expect any good deals.

Wowwwww! What an Intricate trip down memory lane! The owner (also runs the place) has done a terrific job putting together a One stop shop to satisfy all your collectable needs. This place has a TON of retro toys, comics, and collectables. The store has Thunder Cats, Ninja Turtles, Star Wars, GI Joe, Marvel, DC, a bunch of Funko-Pops, you name it. Trade ins (on your potential collections) are welcome as well! I took in some toys and got paid good money. Store is a MUST see! I LOVE it. Theres not many of these types of stores around anymore so go check it out. You wont be disappointed πŸ’ͺ.

On my top 5 list of toy stores. Competitive prices, options, and well organized. Window art accomplishes what some toy stores think they do with sun bleached posters.
