Gaming Universe Corp is a fantastic, dedicated spot for tabletop and trading card game enthusiasts,…read moreconveniently located just outside Tangram mall. This shop truly caters to every kind of TCG player, carrying a full range of games from mainstream titles like Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Magic: The Gathering to popular anime-based games like One Piece and Gundam. The store itself is on the smaller and narrower side, so it can feel a bit cramped when there are a few people at the counter, but it's packed with value. They sell cards and packs at straightforward MSRP prices and have a solid selection available in binders and display cases. What really sets it apart is the community space in the back, which has tables for opening packs or playing matches. They're also an official tournament venue, which adds to its credibility as a local hub for serious players and casual collectors alike. For anyone in the area looking for cards, packs, or just a place to play, Gaming Universe Corp is a reliable and welcoming destination.

Not exactly my favorite place to test out my luck and skills because I feel like the mechanical claws are technically much more looser compared to Partea, Up One & Teso X added up altogether. Selection wise is only decently okay depending on what you like. And like I've mentioned, space is more on the cramped side. Luckily, I'm still able to get 3 mini plushies....despite some difficulty. $1 = 1 token + you need to put in 2 tokens ($2) per turn for mini claw machines while 3 tokens ($3) for regular sized claw machines. Only downside: Sorry, buddy! You're all on your own. No staff physically working at the spot so you won't be able to ask anyone to reposition/rearrange the plushies for a higher chance of winning. Probably won't ever go back again. It's too difficult to claw anything imo if plushies can't be rearranged when they get pushed to the side or towards the corners as the claw can't reach certain areas inside the claw machines. Nonetheless, best of luck to anyone who plans to stop by!

Location wise is on Roosevelt Ave inside the DongDaeMun Shopping Mall Inc which is on the same street as the 7 train. The anime store has three floors (upper floor, main level and basement). Overall, the space is clean and has narrow aisles. Fast service from friendly staff. Cash and/or credit/debit cards are accepted payment. The main floor has a variety of blind boxes, Labubu figures, flash cards, plushies, car models, posters, stationary, figurines especially merch of anime and manga characters....many which I've not heard of before. My favorites are the classic Sanrio and Cardcaptor Sakura. Hugely decent selection of Miku (girl with teal-colored hair) merchandise towards the back of the store. Basement has different kinds of figurines that I've no idea about. My friend knows most of these characters by heart because it seems to be one of her favorite stores whenever coming to the Flushing neighborhood. Flash cards have good deals but the blind boxes are more on the pricier side imo, like $3-4 more compared to other places. Next time if you're wondering what to gift your friends, you can choose to stop by here. I think there has to be something for everyone whether you're into anime or not.
