Selection is good but dont have the one we want. Customer service focus is off. Crew is more focus chase down customer without face cover instead serving customer needed. Would be better if just have 1 focuse on face mask at door before customer even come in. So customer in store will have the service required

Great service, staff super helpful and knowledgeable. We came in for a couple D&D books for a campaign, and left with more and were happy about it. There selection is both large and vast. I would travel to San Jose to come here again.

I had a alright experience when I went to buy some booster packs some dude named Tim or Tom he was pretty coo I was with my nephew and after buying the limit of booster packs I ran into a women works there and had a rude experience with that women not much of a friendly experience much in this shop would high suggest going to oakridge Store instead I always have a nice experience and very helpful service at that mall for Legends shop especially the new store they occupy now very nice and looks promising :) I’m just one person but atleast I know not to show up at eastrige legends %100

An excellent selection of hobby products are available. The salespeople are very friendly, and knowledgeable about the products that they sell. The shop is very clean and well organized. I am very happy with the purchases that we made, and will happily return again soon

I hate to say but this is the best nerd chain (really the only one) in the bay. The owner, who works at Eastridge, is very forward thinking and knows what to stock and sell with the trends. The prices here are for the most part online competitive and they really dont scalp their MTG... most of the time. Wish they still sold more off the cluff old stock comics, but in these parts of Cali we are just fortunate these stores still exist.

Awesome selections of boardgames and a lot of different card, tabletop, and RPG game components. They had a wide selection of Warhammer 40k and the team was very helpful and polite.

Incredible amount of Vintage and Modern Pokemon cards. Yugioh and Magic too! Selling at market price rather than MSRP, but they fend off the scalpers well enough. Highly recommend 👌

One of our favorite Card shops!😁We live bout an hour away an totally don’t mind making the trip. The staff is the best, super friendly will sit there an chop it up with you. They also buy cards an give you a fair price.We go for Pokémon cards but they have ALL types of cards. Pokémon, yu-go-oh, magic, a lil sports, dragon ball Z, an a bunch more. They have action figures, funko’s, card sleeves, binders, boxes, tons of comics an board games. There’s so much more that I haven’t listed just have to go take a look yourself 🤗

Very honest buyer! He was very transparent with what he would buy my items for and what he was going to sell them for. I would go here first if you were interested in selling your toy inventory. I had been a customer here for years prior to selling. I love just searching through the inventory that changes all the time. Thank you Legends!

I had traded 9 of my championship path elite trainer box 2 months ago. I tried to pick up my shining fate which they told me someone took them. Please next time contact the person by phone and email to let them know when to pick up. I had given my phone number and ID to be specific Driver license. I never gotten a call or an email. No notification on when they will come out. They said someone took my pre order which was more than $500 dollars. They did not care or even look at the video of the recording who stole my pre orders.

Good store. Good people. Just disappointed with pokemon cards I bought here. They seem to be tampered with. Packs had cards all over the place. Some cards was upside down. Some had extra cards inside them. These were hatterene v box. Just be careful when purchasing cards from this place.

Have been going here since I was a kid and this store was located at Valco mall. Great people and large selection of comics, manga, card games, collectables and board games. Prices are fair and the staff is knowledgeable and dont push for a sale. Parking is easy and its never too busy. Food and drink friendly. Open until midnight!

Review №25

Nice collection, but the pokemon cards were just overpriced. The Pokémon jumbo card pack was nearly 40 dollars when they’re 10 dollars at Walmart, and the zygarde/tapu koko boxes were 10 dollars more than what they usually were.

Review №26

I wish to get a better customer service. A lot of the things looked overpriced and the Pokémon cards are not in great condition, but they are asking for too much for a card that is not worth a pass 10.

Bought my son 2 tag team tins they were resealed pokemon tins you can find on Amazon for 3 for 100. They had all the wrong sets inside it was 1 base set sun and moon 1 sun and moon burning shadows 1 sun and moon crimson invasion and 1 xy steam siege. All tampered with packs didnt recieve a single holo and also got a few Darkness Ablaze packs with one obvious tampered with had a white card and didnt have a holo rare inside at all.Before opening any of the pack I called to verify the packs inside and after was told they couldnt issue a refund. Very disappointed wont be shopping here again.

We get our Halloween mini-comic bundles here to give to the kiddos classes at school. They have a good stock which does not require us to order in advance since the pre-orders are very early. Friendly service. We will keep coming back. The kids love the comics so its a great non-candy treat and of course, encourages the kids to read! The owner is great and happy to help.

The store was great! The anime wallscrolls, manga, and comics made me feel so much at home! The prices for wallscrolls were lower than I expected, and they have a good variety of posters and wall scrolls and a lot of good manga! I totally recommend coming in and Ill be coming back to shop again!

Great owner and staff. An amazing selection of comic related merchandise and at really reasonable prices even for things that are now hard to find! Owner gave me 10% off because I was waiting of my OWN choice to see if their internet would come back up just so I could use my credit card. Nothing but good things to say about this place.

Review №46

I have changed my rating based on my further business with the owner. I sold him a grip of cards for a reasonable price. He had an excuse for every missed call or every drop in communication. He paid in 3 instalments, every payment was late. I had to contact him for the last two after being a week late. He had excuses for everything. His last one was Oh, I changed phones and lost your number. I truly believe had I not hounded him my payment he would have stopped paying and just taken my cards. I am sure his shop is just fine, but I would avoid doing personal business.

One of the last cool Legends Comics & Games. This place has been around forever and Ive seen so many celebrates here its nuts. Too bad places like this are closing down because of on-line book stores and eBooks. I like paper book and the smell of paper books and always will.Come check it out! By the way, Sunset & Vine is a terrific book. Im coming for the signing.

Pretty cool place... prices are good... sometimes they are late opening (like today) says they open at 10am ... its 10:20 and still no ones around... I guess calling before you show up if you plan on being here in the AM...

Review №53

On one hand they gave me a free pack for just coming into the store to play magic. On the other they refused to allow me to take my backpack into the store despite me offering to leave my ID at the counter since I had thousands of dollars worth of cards in it (3 Legacy Decks). I ended up having to just carry everything around. Will not be coming back.Edit after reply: Hence why I offered to leave my ID at the counter and offered to let them check my bag prior to leaving. If you staff is not going to take liability for ~4,000$ of my belongings there is no way Ill leave it with anyone but myself.

Review №55

If you need a comic book fix, this place is it. They have a wide array of board games and plenty of space to play those games or other games that you bring. Theyre collection of statues and toys are very limited. And the space theyre occupying doesnt fit the atmosphere, but its only a temporary space until they move into their regular location within the mall. Did I mention its in the mall which has movies, arcades, and now comics? Its a nerd dream come true!

Review №57

This place was awesome! Swept in without another thought, it looked so inviting! My husband and I spent about an hour in there. A game night was happening at the time so it was a bit crowded but I go the feeling it usually is. Its fairly big for a store of its sorts. Has tons of games and comic books/manga. Also has some merchandise for various popular shows. They sell MTG and Pokemon cards which I loved. Got me a couple Ive been looking for. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I will definitely be back for Friday night Magic! ❤️

This store is huge! I found some Funko Pops that Ive only seen greatly marked up, at original prices! They have such a great selection of toys, collectibles, and games. Oh yeah, comics too. Definitely going to be my main place to buy new comics from now on.

Review №59

The name is accurate, lots of comics and games.Game selection has a healthy lean towards Wizards of the Coast and Games Workshop merchandise. Though they don’t necessarily skimp on other brands, even if their selection is smaller on these other brands.What you see is what they have, so if it’s not on their shelves chances are they don’t have it in stock. Though they are always willing to special order you the item you want, and are always very attentive in informing you when it arrives.Sales are fairly frequent and their staff are very enthusiastic.Parking lot is a little hectic due to other stores, and client base can get loud sometimes.

Review №61

Its a good business with a large variety of comics and games. I will have to say that they have a real low and tight pay out for the BUYs. They only purchase cards that hold a value of $5 or more. Plus depending on the time and how many staff working.....they may rush through your BUY and alot of the workers dont know a whole lot about the cards info and description or value .Overall good store just needs some better management skills and some classes to educate the employees.

Br
Review №62

Great Store and good people running it. They have a huge selection of RPG gaming systems. Every time I go in there are people playing Magic The Gathering, D&D, Warhammer or other systems. The way I see it is buy from the stores you want to see stick around. Even when I dont really need anything I go in and buy dice or a game module because I want this store to be there for a long time.

J
Review №63

Always like Legends. I cant wait to see their permanent location once its available. Right now I see a good majority of their stock, but I believe theyll have more once theyre moved.

Im glad we finally have a comic book store in this area. Up until now, we didnt have a comic book store anywhere near here. Wish they would carry more old school stuff and more Stranger Things items, but other then that, they have some cool stuff. Employees are super friendly and helpful. I try to buy something everytime I go in the store to try to keep them here and to give them business.

So shocked at what I saw here today. I was shopping with my boyfriend when I heard a really big, threatening voice from one of the employees at a LITTLE hispanic girl who couldnt have been more then 12 or 13 telling her to HAND over her tiny unicorn backpack if she wanted to stay in the store. Are you serious ?? I was so shocked I didnt even know what to say. Her mom and dad werent around and she was with what looked to be her brother who didnt seem very much older then her. She seemed shocked too, like his voice was so loud and embarrassing and threatening !UM excuse me ?? You cannot be taking away little girls bags, are you serious ? He 100% was going to take away this girls little teensy baby unicorn backpack. If I was her parent Id be furious. They werent even NEAR any merchandise! Absolutely INAPPROPRIATE, I was so shocked I couldnt even react!!Its a big space with a lot of junk honestly and the employees treat everyone (my bf and I included!!) like a potential thief instead of a customer. SO TURNED OFF.

Was excited to see a Legends Comics in the area. The one that closed down in Cupertino was the best and the location in Santa Clara is really nice as well. But this one... Lack of interesting material, rude management, slightly overpriced, etc. Will go out of my way and visit the Santa Clara location on El Camino.

Ok, a bit ago I was at a place that was legendary but recently just came back! Everything I asked was non existent. A wizard guide to price I was told doesnt exist Id have to just see online. This place I came in I found display cases, comic protective display items, and as I waited my turn and asked the young man at answer all my questions to which customer service. Sometimes thats the difference. I was dismissed after 3 appts at that other place and pretty much overlooked! What did I have the launch of image as Frank Miller and Jim Lee leaves DC and marvel the gen 13 numbers 1/2 to 6, firsts appearances of Gambit, bishop, and duh oarorow monroe aka storm ! So far this place has the knowelge and customer respect even if I dont sell to them I now know where and what has thr price guide and what previews are rather than be laughed at. It was a great place

Awhile back I gave a good review for their previous location in Santa Clara. I liked that place a lot and I’d always stop by when I was in town. When things were closing down I started noticing that the staff were becoming ruder and short with people. Never to me personally but I witnessed them do it to people asking simple questions about products or what’s in stock. The first one I witnessed was with a special needs kid asking about cards or something. The owner was incredibly rude to him, really soured my visits from then on. I went to the new location with my girlfriend, she mistakenly stumbled in an area that wasn’t finished and an employee yelled at her, then he started being sarcastic to some guy who was asking what happened to the Barnes &Noble that was previously there. Again, they’ve always been nice to me but watching them deal with others really soured my experience being there. So I’m done with this place... I sincerely hope they learn some descent customer service, cause other than that it’s a great place

Review №79

Selection: 5I LOVE THIS PLACE! Ive always found the D&D books, Magic packs and accoutrements, and board games that I wanted at Legends. If they are out of stock for something, they order it. This place isnt just a one-store thing. The last time I came here, they had three storefronts in one area. One was strictly dedicated to board games, another to comic books, and another to tabletop gaming. Nerd heaven.Service: 2-5I usually get decent service here, where someone will help me find what Im looking for. Ive also gotten fantastic service, where someone went out of their way to sign me up for a Magic DCI number on their own computer. Ive also had meh-to-poor service here, maybe once when they were really busy with a tournament.

Review №97

Went in this store yesterday with my wife. This store used to be in Vallco Shopping Mall in Cupertino, Ca. The same owner was sitting behind the register at this store. The owner had made a reputation for being an arrogant, pompous, egotistical jackass and guess what...? He hasnt changed a bit. I asked him if he had any plastic model kits as the size of this new store might hold them and his response was ...Warhammer and some Gundam. The way he stated this was asinine. He could have answered with a nicer response. The owner lacks customer service skills and is a lazy self-entitled jackass. He had no interest in selling anything he had nor asked me what my interests were. I told him I would NOT be coming back. Not recommended and avoid at all costs.

Review №98

Lots of potential in this store! The selection is great! The staff was okay. Not fantastic but not nearly as bad as anime 101. Not sure how i feel about the policy of hey i kmow youve been playing for 20 minutes and obviously havent stolen anything but its store policy to hold your backpack. Being that it is in a mall, and in a big city, i totally get it. I just hope that doesnt spread to other stores.

This local comic/game store has a lot to offer in the way of collectables and hobbies, such as Warhammer and Magic the Gathering. The offerings from front to back and local events hosting make this place worthy of return visits, especially to check their miniatures.
