Many of these toys are still in their packaging. Going into the store I wasn't sure what to expect. I wasn't sure if they sold toys or were looking to buy used toys. The answer is they do both. Although the vibe is more like a museum than anything else. Overall I had a great time visiting this store. I wish the associate working would've been a little more engaging, they were very stand of fish.

I had so much nostalgia wash over me walking around and seeing the vintage toys and figures they had. My boyfriend got a pop figure for a really good price that's normally upcharged a lot online and our cashier was the owner who was welcoming and talked to us about his store! They even had anime figures and awesome gundam's to pick from. Locally owned business with so many things to see and buy, can't wait to visit on my next trip!

I've been searching for Lego sets on my grandsons Christmas wishlist. Last year we gave him a…read morefairly large Harry Potter set. Little did I know it can be connected with four additional Harry Potter Lego sets to make a grand display. So of course he wanted the complete collection. One of the sets is no longer produced so I searched eBay for that set. While I was searching I had also written down info on the other sets and what they would cost if I purchased them on Lego.com I found a great deal on one of the sets from The Toy Guys. It was listed in new condition. I am fairly pleased with the purchase however there was one small tear of part of the front card box. It doesn't affect the set and will be easy to disguise when I tape a label to the box. Overall I would purchase Legos from this business in the future.

I loved this comic store while visiting Richmond! Small store but has a lot of stuff, which I was…read morepleasantly surprised with. They have a good amount of new issues, as well as older ones. They have a huge collection of older issues, including ones labeled from the Silver Age, which I appreciated. Most of them are organized, but some of them are kind of all over the place timeline wise, but still fun to go through. They had quite a diversity of TP and compendiums which was great! There were so many great series! Would say everything was priced decently. Employee was chill and friendly.

I enjoy coming to this place as it feels almost more catered to the collector by having multiple cover variants in stock and occasionally accessories like posters and pins. The staff are very knowledgeable about comics and the stories so if you have a question, don't hesitate to ask.

I mean, it's not terrible, but not worth the time.

It's the kind of store where you can easily find something for just about anyone and any occasion. They have a great selection of greeting cards and some of the most unique wrapping paper. Also, we've picked up several Jellycats here for our niece. Prices can run a bit high, but that's part of the charm since many of the items feel thoughtfully curated and aren't the kind of things you'll find everywhere else. The staff is consistently friendly and always greets us when we walk in. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind gift, this is the place.

A bookstore in Richmond to visit on Broad Street. I found parking around the corner since you can't…read morepark in front of the store. When I got there, they had a table of books for $1, mostly kid's books. Once inside, there are books along the wall. I also saw comic books, records and some vintage ads by decades. They have a very tiny kid's section nothing to rave about. My impression is that they had a lot of books, but not a lot of popular books. It was still worth a look. I did see some books about Art and Architecture. I am sure I am missing mentioning more, but that is what I remembered. The books were fairly priced and was glad to find 2 books. You can see my pics to see them. The bookstore seems to have been there a long time. It doesn't look like it's been updated ever. There is an old vibe here, but these are the kinds of bookstore you will find something cool and rare. The old register at the counter is also a classic.
