    This Build-A-Bear is very enjoyable to visit.  The staff and management are upbeat and participate in the events around them.  They are caring for their patrons. They have a great selection of bears and other stuffed toys to choose from.  I like the pirate and the rainbow bear especially. The stuffing stations are in good condition.  One drawback was there was a light film of dust in the place.  I am not sure if it was due to the material batch they were using or the process they used to load the stuffing station.  The process involved dragging out a bag and grabbing large tufts of material and pushing it into the machine.  They might need to work on that one - maybe auto introduction from a bag or small bale.  When we visited there was a young bride there with her bridesmaids and family.  It made the whole activity festive.  Talking about festive - there was a birthday party going on too and if you don't know how it gets in a Build-A-Bear when a party is going on you've simply got to see it to believe it! They have a wide selection of accoutrements for the bears and others.  It's a hoot to browse through them.  Last but not least there is a sound machine where you can load sounds into your bear's heart which is then placed in the chest your bear and sewed in tight.  (It's not as far out as it sounds - once you see it or participate it all makes perfect sense - like having fun!) Enjoy yourself!

    I arrived for the Build a Bear pay your age the lines were already cut off. I offered to pay full price, and still was denied access to the store. This event was poorly handed. This should be a shinning example of poor marketing. Up front you could have disclosed 200 bears at child's age, then a percent off of kids age for the day. Why didn't your management have the foresight to develop a better plan? HUGE Disappointment! We probably have at least twenty of your animals in each kids room. Thank you for wasting my time...

    Deceptive sign at build a bear

    Saw this sign at Build-A-Bear and have a baby on the way so we wanted to get some lion king stuffed animals thinking this was a good deal. After stuffing the animals and getting them all ready to cash out they told us the lion king animals were excluded. This sign clearly shows the deal with the lion king on it. VERY DECEPTIVE!!! Crooked company that we will never return to!!

    What a fantastic shop! Stopped in here for the first time about a week ago to look around and was…read morenot disappointed. They have so many comics and tons of toys for a variety of fandoms like Funko, DC, Marvel, wrestling. All items were reasonably priced and the gentleman working there was really nice and offered us assistance if we needed it. We decided to purchase some comics and they were a great deal! Highly recommend this business and will definitely be back!

    Oh Funky Town Toys. I've been a patron of this awesome store for a few years now. I first went into…read moretheir location on Hayes and Hall Rd. (they have moved since then) to snag some free comic books on Free Comic Book Day. I've been coming back ever since! My son loves to collect Star Wars action figures. I am also a child, so I love to browse and buy the occasional trinket or toy. The old location was a little small and tucked away in a relatively crowded strip mall on the bustling intersection of Hall Rd and Hayes. The drive there was frustrating enough to limit my appearances there. They have since moved to a new location...terrifyingly close by. Now it's super convenient to visit the new store. The strip mall they moved to is much less busy and the location is way easier to spot from Van Dyke. The interior of the store is jam packed with lots of collectibles. They have a variety of wrestling, GI Joe, Star Wars and Funko Pops to name a few things. There's so much more there too (like superhero themed comic books). With as much stuff as Funky Town Toys has, the inside of the store is quite clean and spacious. It's always a pleasure to walk around and look at all of the potential money I can spend on stuff! If you're into old and new action figures and collectibles, you should take a stroll into Funky Town Toys. There's lots to choose from...and if you're looking for something in particular...just ask and they will talk with you...and maybe they can find something for you. Seriously...I love this place. They always have a huge selection and the staff are incredibly nice. They also know a ton about collectibles. There's a parking lot right out in front of the store, but if it's full, there's a small public parking lot right around the corner! I did the ground work for you...now you have no other excuses. Go check them out. Thanks! Brian S.

    The reason I support local stores is because it's the right thing to do. After today though, I see…read morewhy most people support bigger stores. I got to the mall for a release of a sought after item at 9:00 a.m. store was to open at 10:00 a.m. this store has two doors. What this store also has is no education handling crowd central. They allowed people in the twenties to wait inside (most logical) and then we found out there was an even longer line outside. When we tried to tell the store this a woman who is usually mean on a good day scoffed at us and only yelled though the door that she would be opening both doors at once (a safety issue) this woman is a middle aged woman with her hair up and I think it was green. She has never been kind. Today was worse. She made it her goal to let the other people in first even though we did the right thing by standing outside the store in the mall. There was a two limit per person (a joke) as people in line were calling the other outside line as families were manning both lines with multiple people per family to buy two per everyone in their party. So most families passed the "system" and worked both lines. What's the worst part of all of this? The owner Jenna was there during all of this. It could have been civilized. It could have been organized. A number per person. Staff calming people down. Not having three and under children working when you have two lines to get through. I can't recommend this store any longer. Nothing about today showed that they cared about fairness. And for the horrible employee with the green bun, you work in a toy store have some compassion towards others. You are always angry and awful to approach and you are the last reason this store lost a customer today. You are simply cruel in an unusual way.

    I've come here a few times to get a gift or two for either one of my cousins or a friends kid…read more They have plenty of toys and items to choose from like board games, plushies, puzzles, small sports sets and many more. They're even many educational flash cards and books for children. I was even able to pick up an adult coloring book for myself. Regardless of whatever you buy they'll wrap your purchased items which is great because I can't wrap a gift to save my life. The service is very friendly and the overall atmosphere is nice. It's great to still see some toy stores around, especially since nowadays you can simply buy toys online on Amazon or other retailers. However If you're looking for some fun toys or gifts for any kids I think it's worth stopping by.
