When I saw this shop, I decided to enter. As I walked in, I saw Ashley, the manager, standing near the counter. I asked for her assistance and described to her what I needed. Ashley made some recommendations and showed me a variety of toys that were aged appropriate. She spent a lot of time helping me until I felt satisfied with my decision. I ended up with the 5+ Burger Truck (see pic). If you have small children, this place has everything: fun, educational and interactive. Also, I loved the fact that they have free gift wrap service and interactive toys for children to enjoy while waiting for their moms to shop. Enjoy shopping for your children Moms!

I bought it and I didn't notice this until I got home, but the item I chose got swapped by the clerk since I looked down and was getting ready to pay on my phone. I got extremely disappointed after noticing the switch after opening the item that it made my day sad. Clerk was a long black-haired chick who tied her hair up, skinny, probably 5'4'' with glasses. I know this is petty, but I was really upset and disappointed. She clearly wanted the one I chose, but knew she couldn't buy until probably after the shift. To all the shoppers there, watch your boxes/gatchapon from the clerk who may switch it out. Mind you, this is my first time experiencing such a thing that happened and I've shopped there so many times, but nothing like that has ever happened.

This is my new favorite store. So many cute items and I love the large blind box selection!read more

I'm past the point in my life where they have anything that really interests me, but for when my grand niece and nephew get older I'm sure I'd be stopping here for something.

Hasbro gets five stars out of me for a toy line and property they acquired through their…read moreacquisition of Tonka in 1991: MASK. MASK was created and sold by Kenner. The white-and-blue Kenner logo and/or name was on the MASK toys, boxes, etc. Kenner became a subsidiary and division of Tonka in 1987. The MASK toy line ran from 1985 to 1988. So, for the majority of its production run, Kenner (or Kenner Parker Toys) was the main owner and manufacturer of the MASK toys. Not Tonka, not Hasbro. I was such a big fan of MASK that, when I was a kid, I wrote a letter to Kenner asking if they'd make new MASK toys. I got a letter back in the mail from Hasbro explaining how they had ultimately acquired Kenner and that there were no plans for new MASK toys. I was about nine then and I think that was my first exposure to mergers and acquisitions. Ha. MASK is one of the more obscure and forgotten franchises of the 80s. It's not surprising because they had to compete against juggernauts like GI Joe and Transformers (also Hasbro properties). MASK was like a hybrid of GI Joe and Transformers. You had good guys (MASK: Mobile Armored Strike Kommand) and bad guys (VENOM: Vicious Evil Network of Mayhem) who wore masks - each mask had a unique special power - and drove/piloted vehicles that transformed into battle machines. Pretty awesome. Like many toy lines from the 80s, MASK had a cartoon TV series to help sell the product. To this day, I remain impressed with the level of detail in the toy design, both in look and in function, as well as the wide variety of vehicle types. Every vehicle - from sports car to motorcycle to tanker truck to ATV to F1 race car to dune buggy (I could go on) - looked like a miniature version of its real-life counterpart. The little action figures, which could fit perfectly into the vehicle seats, resembled the characters on TV, complete with distinct masks that fit over their heads. However, most impressive was the ability for each vehicle to transform as depicted on the show. Some true engineering work went into these toys. I'd love to learn more about the history behind MASK, its creation by the folks at Kenner (now Hasbro), and where and how exactly the toys were made. As a diehard MASK fan, I have to admit that the show hasn't held up well over time. It was definitely made for kids in the 80s. The toys are something I still treasure. As the saying goes, I'm not sure Hasbro would make them the same way today if they were to ever release a new line for MASK. While curious, I probably wouldn't be into it. Obviously, nostalgia plays a role in my biased opinion. In the 80s and 90s, other Hasbro toy lines that I was a fan of, to varying degrees, included Battle Beasts, the aforementioned GI Joe and Transformers, GoBots, and the official WWF action figures. The Hasbro WWF Superstars were hilarious.

4/9/21 Does anyone…read moreremember Transformer from September 17, 1984 to November 11, 1987?  This would be the orginal not this Tranformers Beast Wars or any other version.  Do you remember GI Joe?, The Real Anerican  Heros? Or maybe a combination of GI Joe/Transformers? No?! Maybe you played Monopoly, Medical Monopoly  or Monopoly with credit cards instead of paper?  How about My Little Pony, Play-Doh, Power Rangers, Pokemon, Jem and The Holograms? Well they all were made by Hasbro and a whole lot more. You could shoot guns with water, guns with foam or guns with balls. Care for a Frisbee? Hasbro has you covered. All of these fun toys could be found at Toys R Us, Child's Play  or any other toy store. So many kids like me enjoyed playing with they GI Joe action figures or they My Little Pony. Watching GI Joe or My Little Pony on television would be the next big thing. Especially on a Saturday Morning. Its it's truly truly outrageous to miss those shows. I remember playing with my favorite GI Joe action figures Battle Android Troopers, Storrm Shadow ( I went through a lot of those), Zartan, Zarana and Tomax and Xamot Paoli. These were the coolest action figures to collect and play with.   I will say one of the first things to break on my action figures were the thumbs.  I had to use clay to hold the weapons in the toys palms. Eventually the rubber band holding the action figures would snap and I glued the action figures together with rubber cement.  More than once I gave one or two of my action figures a burial.  One of these figures is still buried in my backyard of my old house. One of my old friends did something similar,  but forgot where he buried his action figures. Back when Transformers cartoon came out, I knew just by the introduction theme song, The Gobots were going to hell.    Triple Changer was one of the coolest Decepticons out there. I liked Optimus Prime, but the Decepticons had cooler robots.  Soundwave had a number of additional robots inside him. Frenzy, Laserbeak, Ravage & Rumble were awesome.  When I watched Transformers,  I normally did not see Frenzy to offten, but he was my favorite.  The most infamous/annoying/humorous  is Starscream. His voice was just as annoying  as it was to see what the character would do next. When Transformers The Movie came out, Starscream annoyed/betrayed Megatron  for what seemed to be the last time.  Yet, you can't keep an annoying pest down forever. The fans had something to say about this too. Hasbro is responsible for entering many fans. Hasbro entertained use fans again when the live action versions of Transformers and GI Joe became Hollywood movies.  My Little Pony movie might be around the corner at some point.  Hell, Jem was made into a Hollywood movie....talk about truly outrageous..., but it happened. I learned today that Play-Doh was aquired by Hasbro in 1991.  Another amazing kids toy that I played with when I was a kid...and yes I tasted it too. It was very salty.  Hasbro has made a lot of kids happy and will continue to make kids happy while letting kids imagination run while all over the world.   Thank you Hasbro.

Last time I went, I grabbed some imported ramen and a cute pair of chopsticks. I'm planning to bring my kids next time since they're obsessed with anime and ramen. I thought it was cool that they have a little spot where you can make your ramen right there, and some people were even eating outside on the patio, it just adds to the whole vibe. I did notice that some stuff, like the Hello Kitty ramen I usually get at Target, was more expensive here, but honestly, the variety, the atmosphere, and how nice the staff is make it worth stopping by. We'll definitely be back, and I'll probably end up buying even more stuff next time.

Elise has gone above and beyond for my Elise - even helping guide her through the mirror maze when she was trying that on her own. I was slightly hesitant to not join my daughter in the maze, both because of her age and that she's Autistic. I'm really proud of her for enjoying the mirror maze without Mom by her side. I personally find the mirror maze a bit overwhelming visually - but 40 year old mom isn't the target market for that experience. Our routine is now ride the ride on animal vehicles, mirror maze, and a small toy before we leave. The ride on animals are great! $10 but my daughter gets bored before her time is up. Mirror maze is $7. They have you wear plastic gloves so that you won't leave fingerprints if you touch a mirror. There's also lazer tag, but we haven't tried that yet. What makes this store unique is the caring staff and curated toys available. It's large enough to have everything you need and a lot of options, but not be overwhelming. You can find a gift for any kid here, even just the young at heart. Even just window shopping is a delight - with a Lego T Rex and Kenex ferris wheel. Definitely worth shopping here over a big box chain. They have a free rewards program too, that gives you discounts based on your lifetime purchase value.
