We chose a mystery box and got Serenity. Which os one we dont have. We had so much fun dressing him like a G. With literally thousands of combinations and hundreds of accessories. This was a fun activity for our son. Even the little Labubus has crock charms. This is the mecca of crock charms. We made sure to grab some of those too. I wish we had a store like this in California. A must check out.

Shopping in Aiea, O'ahu, Hawaii…read more.. I wasn't planning to buy a Labubu, but somehow, Hope (from the Big Into Energy series - V3), followed me home... and she kind of wanted an outfit... Okay - let's take a look at Aloha Charms! I read the reviews, but wasn't prepared for ALL of the merchandise that they have! Besides outfits, shoes, glasses, accessories, and hats for your Labubu, they also have decals and Create Your Own Pen Charms! Everything (like the Dodgers and Warriors outfits) was organized and neatly presented! Service was efficient and friendly! I'll be back for more cute items!

Anime galore... This…read moreunique shop located in Pearlridge Center Wai Makai side and is not your typical shop as it seems to be more for the collectors as in the back there's a wall filled with Funko Pop and Pokémon cards in display case among finding some unique characters like One Piece and Skzoo to name a few though the load of Sanrio and Pokémon are found here as well. This spacious shop is very clean and organized which makes it very easy to browse and see what they have to offer, and seems like they also buy, sell and trade items as well which is pretty cool though not sure how it's done but for the true collector this is a great deal and a valuable convenient place to do so, it's not quite my vibe but is a cute shop which many seem to enjoy. Thank you!

5 Stars Mini Q at Pearlridge - Outstanding Customer Service!…read more It was a pleasure shopping at the Mini Q at Pearlridge. Employee "Kaitlynn" did a wonderful job with customer service. She helped my 11-year-old son with the Warhammer tiny models, taking the time to explain everything needed to get started in painting. Her thorough and detailed explanations really made a difference. "Kaitlynn" was incredibly authentic and genuine - it's rare to find such dedication and care in customer service these days. I really appreciate her outstanding work and wanted to applaud her for it. If you ever visit this store, be sure to ask for "Kaitlynn" - a sweet, hardworking young woman with exceptional customer service skills. Aloha!

Ever since they closed their Mililani location, this location at pearlridge is unfortunately the…read morelast store standing. Located in Pearlridge Mauka, near Macys, this store is open 10 AM to 8 PM daily except on Sundays when they close at 6. They are an anime store, with a lot of inventory of toys, action figures, and other type of collectibles. They are on the more expensive side, but tbh honest what isn't? You may find a better deal at maybe animation magic upstairs but I feel like Mini Q has a better selection and is geared more towards anime. The workers there are also very nice and helpful. Just as a tip, I just call them to ask if they have what I want in their store or something equivalent. They offer good recommendations when possible and even suggested I check out Razor when they didn't have the item I wanted in stock.

FAKE KNOCK OFF PRODUCTS…read more I came here because it seemed cool and the wannabe influencers on socmed said it had good products. Boy were they wrong. Pretty much EVERY single thing in these stores are obvious or well-hidden fakes and knockoffs. Nothing is official. Everything is dropshipped. Before Aliexpress stopped shipping to Hawaii, you could get all of this stuff for literal pennies. It's just dropshipped garbage that they're trying to pass off as quality toys or collectibles. DO NOT support this business filling our islands with cheap and unsafe knock offs. If anything, go on Aliexpress or Temu to buy their products at 5% of the price they're asking for in this store. Disgusting and disgraceful

Kawaii in Wai Makai…read more.. Not the section that I usually shop as it has more eateries versus shops and thank goodness that the Kawaii Friends Fair had brought me here or I'd never have known theses cuteness would be here. A couple of kiosk is what they need for the kawaii overflows this biz that's between Hallmark and Dunkin Donuts and I wasn't prepared for the various merchandise they have lots and lots of pens and stationary items, "replica" Sonny Angel and Labubu blind boxes galore at $25/$35 of all kinds along with various charms and so many other cute stuff. The staff seems a bit underwhelmed as the crowd grew but I enjoyed browsing around the selection at my leisure and is great to know the option of having some kawaii items easily found right here. Thank you!

Cute merchandise at a kiosk on the Ground Level of the NEX (Navy Exchange), Pearl Harbor, Honolulu,…read moreOahu, Hawaii... Everyone must pass by the kiosks at the lobby of the NEX. How can you resist looking at items as you walk by??? You don't need a Military ID to shop at the kiosks (and the food court)! I saw so many Sanrio characters such as Kuromi, My Melody, Pochacco, and Hello Kitty... PLUS, they were tanned! I also noticed a Hello Kitty purse and a bunny stress ball... too Kawaii!! There were no Cony (Line Friends) items... shucks! Well... I know where to find useful, foldable, reusable tote bags... and lanyards... and keychains, towels, t-shirts, backpacks, mugs, fans, bowls, plushies, wireless headphones, insulated tumblers, and luggage tags!

Cuteness galore…read more.. The lovely kiosk cart is located in the NEX Mall and you just can't miss the cuteness that loaded and filled from top to bottom. So much fun and happy items that makes you smile with all sorts of characters like Sanrio, Pokemon, and even some local cuties that are totes, accessories and lots of plushies the selection here are amazing with items that are hard to find elsewhere you're sure to find something that will make you smile. Prices are great as well and to find all these cute items in one area is the real deal and a find. Thank you!

On a visit from a previous year, a friend mentioned wanting to come to a sports card store. I…read moreagreed but, caught up with the activities the rest of our travel group wanted to do, I forgot to fulfill his wish. My travel companion on this trip told me his wish to do this so I made a point to dedicate time for this. In the early '90's, when my friends and I were annually coming here for the Pro Bowl, we'd wander the strip malls along Kam Highway. After stopping at another nearby store, we found this shop coincidentally right by where I was going to suggest having lunch. As my friend browsed, I studied the glass cases and it reminded me of my request for my Bay Area friend to find me a particular WNBA superstar's card. Not knowing the market price, I bought a card due to its high grade. Here is my purchase and another friend gifted card (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=264&select=2HUYa_if69E1-pOb9VNCVw).
