Even if you aren't an '80s person it's fun to walk down memory lane at this place to see what was trendy and hip in that decade. read more

If you grew up in the 80s, the oodles of trinkets that seem like they just fell out of a time machine will bring back *so many* memories. Just an incredible shop, the sort of place where you can buy cartridges for your 2600, or stumble upon the lunchbox you had in the fourth grade and buy it just because. read more

So great that we had to come back! Amazing staff, great prices, and phenomenal passion for collecting. The team here gets just as excited as you when you find what you are looking for. Great selection as well! read more

Very friendly staff, a varied selection of 80s and 90s merch, memorabilia and media, prices are consistent with collectable prices elsewhere, but the convenience of buying in store and the atmosphere help a lot read more

Talk about a blast from the past! What a cool little store chock full of so much nostalgia. This was a super fun day date stop perusing the hundreds of toys, cards, games, books, artwork and trinkets - many from my own childhood. A lot of the toys here are from the 70s-90s but they have some older and newer stuff too. Many are used, some new and they do have some collectibles. It's a pretty tight space completely packed with stuff so it can take awhile to look through everything, but isn't that part of the fun? The staff are super nice and knowledgeable and just ask that you don't manhandle everything because there's some old stuff there they don't want dirtied or broken which is a no brainer. They have hand sanitizer at the entrance to help with that. We had a fun time reliving some of our youth and I saw toys there I hadn't thought about since I was in elementary school. A must-do if you're in the Denver area looking for something unique to do. read more

Horrible experience, Was treated like trash today, I had an emergency and need to sell, and the lady working today basically apply that I stole this stuff, Then proceed to tell me my original Star wars collection was crap because I had original boxes for it, then was told My optimus prime was worthless and crap because I had the box and the original packing for it instructions, then told me the rest of my stuff from the 70's and 80's was crap. Tired of business like this demanding high price for your childhood toys but then crap on you and them when it comes time for them to buy them and treat their customers right apparently they need more than a 80% profit for this place, she discriminates against people she look at me like I had done something to her.I had to say hello She said nothing and then got the turb when I asked do they buy toys? I was treated today like trash Really lady I was born in '76 how dare I own original Star wars and how dare I buy stuff and how dare you accuse me of being a thief. Stop buy this stuff its crap when you walk in and want to sell to them, but when they sell it, they give you ever readon excuse in the book to charge high prices fir it. Worest investment ever. And that was forced to give them a one-star read more

Travel back in time to see all your favorite 80's toys you grew up with (talking to you 80's babies). Plan to walk down memory lane when you are here. You will have a 5 year old grin the whole time and your brain will spin with nostalgia. You will see childhood favorites (mine!) popples, wuzzles, strawberry short cake, cabbage patch kids, rainbow bright, gi-joe, Alf, gremlins, fraggles, garbage patch kids, trading cards... plus so, so, soooo much more. It looks as though everything (most everything) is for sale so you can buy your old childhood trinkets! Just the best store! read more

This place is chock full of toys that brought me back to my own childhood. It's odd to think of my toys as a kid as vintage but it was 35 years ago. If you are looking for something for your kids that you loved a s a kid, I highly recommend looking here first. If it existed and you want it, this is a good place to look. The owner was really friendly and there were a lot of "I remember....." coming out of my mouth. I don't know where she found some of these toys but it was a great trip down memory lane. Again, the store of small but every available surface had some kind of toy on it. My younger one loves all things Yoda and found her a pin she didn't already have. I know Yoda is hit or miss with Star Wars because he wasn't a main character but there is a solid Star Wars memorabilia section. There was even a Chairy folding chair outside and a large pink flamingo I want for my yard. read more

You. Must. Go!!!!! The instant nostalgia and squeals of delight echo through the store. Awesome in every way and the perfect spot to take out of town guests for a little treat- speaking of treats- pop into the Azucar bakery next door for delicious cakes, treats, and empanadas!! So fun!!! read more

Such a fun shop to stop by and get a little nostalgic. The owner was super friendly and informative, and the lady at the shop counter showed me how an animatronic care bear functioned (which I promptly bought for my niece because she is going to adore it). Loved how they prefer to buy and trade locally, and how they kept everything out rather than behind glass. Unfortunately due to covid they ask that you keep handling the merchandise to a minimum, but it was still so fun! If you're in the area, you should absolutely stop in. read more

Yes, Yes, and More Yes!!! Gen X in tha house!! The 80's were amazing!! I mean we had Alf, Pee-Wee, E.T., Atari, cheesy wrestling, and so much more. I think more than anything it's the music that has held up over time. Good stuff. This throwback store is just the best. You can take a break from the real world and just bathe in 80's goodness. I'll meet you there for detention. Together, we can discover that we have a lot more in common than we thought. read more

What can I say that others have not, this place is a 80's dream! Walk in and take a walk back in time looking at all the things from our past. Everything from Smurfs to slick retro Return of the Jedi stuff to Friday the 13th memorabilia. Hard not to find SOMETHING you don't need, but must have in this place.

Super cool stop! It's definitely a walk down memory lane. Toys are in amazing condition and reasonably priced. Owner is a nice lady. We enjoyed our visit! read more

This 50-80's collectable Toy store was such a great gem. They did a very good job at categorizing each section of themed toys. I enjoyed that they had a mixture of unopened an opened toys and I also like the fact that they buy too. They had a great amount of trading cards even ones that I didn't know that they had sold such as Demolition man , TRON, Rocketeer and other 80s flashback cards. I bought some classic Garbage Pail kids as a gift. The prices are everywhere from low to high and in between. Some items are priced a bit higher than should be, but this is a small business and I whole heartily support the prices that they set. They are by NO MEANS price gouging. The sales people were very welcoming and they were very kind as if I was talking to my neighbors (unless you have bad neighbors, that sucks for you and I'm sorry) I can't wait to return and buy a few more items for my 80's collections. Great investments. read more

This place was really cool, all sorts of crazy wacky nostalgia everywhere you look. The staff was really friendly and they make sure the store doesn't get too full for safety, you may need to wait at the door if it's busy. I really liked all of the Star Wars and Indiana Jones stuff! There was merchandise and cool stuff from just about every 80/90s tv show, band, or movie you could think of. My mom was a kid during that time period and she kept noticing things that she recognized. read more

Moved meetings around to make it to this shop before they close. Got to it at 4:49 and they were closed. Another local shop said this is a regular occurrence. Don't bother wasting your time and travel to a shop that can't bother to be open during their posted hours. read more

This really is a totally awesome store! TONS of stuff from the 80's in here. Everything from action figures and video game consoles, to stand up posters and trading cards. My only wish for the store is that they dip in to the 90's a little now. read more

Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. I was shocked to see the amount of 80's toys there was in one spot. It literally took me back to my childhood. To be honest the only thing I would change are the hours of operation. I'd open earlier and close later. read more

Once I saw that this place existed, I HAD to check it out! My family and I drove 22+ hours to take our vacation in Colorado, with this store being one of the biggest draws to do so! I'd give it 5 stars except for one reason. I was SO excited to finally be able to shop here, and my husband and our two boys were ecstatic to look at all the throwback toys of our childhood, and the kids were just excited for toys lol. Our boys are ages 9&13, so I was able to warn them to behave themselves, and they were old enough to listen and on their best behavior. I had picked out a few small items to purchase and was debating on some bigger ones when I figured if I was getting ready to check out that I'd double back to the front door first and grab one of the magnets before being completely done shopping. The minute I was standing at the door browsing the magnets, the lady that works there sprinted over and offered to hold my purchases while I finished shopping. I told her I was fine, and she said she would be happy to hold onto them for me. I said, well I'm still debating whether or not to get some of the things I was holding, and she's like, well that's okay I'll put them behind the desk and you can still decide. Yes she smiled the entire time, but she was so nervous it was clear she was afraid I was going to run out the door, or pass my purchases off to someone else outside maybe. And I GET there are some crappy people out in the world who do that kind of stuff. I do understand stores need to protect their stock. But I was STILL inside the store. Just looking at the magnets. Of course I had every intention to pay for the items I wanted, and I prefer to hold onto them so I can check the prices and compare what I can get for the budget I've set, while I'm still looking around. But she would NOT leave me until I emptied my hands. And that I just don't get. You're so worried about losing a few dollars that you would treat your customers that way, I mean really?! A family of 4, and I'm a 30 something year old mother ooh'ing and ahh'ing over your fabulous store, and you're that sure I'm a shoplifter?? You lost a lot more business by treating me like that then you would have even if I was a shoplifter. Customer service is everything to me, so idc how cool your sh1t is, you don't know how to do business. Sorry read more

I didn't buy anything here so I can't speak for my purchases but this place is great. It was pretty small but packed full of stuff. They had old video games, toys, dolls, trading cards, something for everyone. This was so fun and such a trip down memory lane. I would have gotten a few items but they were just so expensive - although I understand why. If you like the 80s and early 90s, check this place out! read more

Constantly toy hunting and this treasure didn't disappoint! Great setup, colorful and eclectic.

I felt like I was in the 70's again. It felt so good to walk around in this suture, I enjoyed it thoroughly.
