The store looked big from the outside and once you get inside, it was spacious. They had a couple of deals going on for tshirts and back to school stuff. I walked past the small figures in the front and went toward the back to look at the plush. I saw some nice characters but nothing stood out to me for my daughter. The prices will vary depending on what you're looking for. I didn't have any issues when I was inside the store.

Hello Kitty everything! The Sanrio houseware mini trash cans, buckets, pencil holders and jewelry cases are adorable. Bigger clearance section, though not all the markdowns are big. The plushy wall has a lot of Snoopy's If I were into Blind Box collectibles, I'd surrender even more of my money. Employees are friendly but I don't get what their shopping bags are 30 cents. Shopping here is a test of self-control. I hope Miniso's presence attracts more business in this struggling area.

Really great store with personal service! I was helping a friend declutter baby clothes and was…read moresuper happy to find a local shop where you can easily sell them for cash (Zelle transfer) or store credit. It was a super simple process where I just brought what I had (Quince and Kendi outfits) and the owner let me know on the spot what I could get for them. If you're looking for kids and baby clothes, the selection is great as the brands are higher-end, but affordable. Whether you're a first-time parent to a newborn or your kids are getting grown up, I would say make this a first stop before looking online. They sell toys and accessories as well. There's paid street parking or free parking in the neighborhoods. This is a fantastic small business to support and shop at!

The curated selection of toys and books were compelling. They "sell" gift wrapping but not really. I was on my way to a date with a woman and i had a small gift for her that i asked to be wrapped.

The attendant behind the counter was very nice and they do have a good selection of toys.

I would suggest if you were in the area.

I think it's a wonderful childhood experience to peruse a toy store and I'm glad that Tom's Toys is around to continue the tradition. Fun to look around and shop here. What an AWESOME toy store! Very clean. It is much bigger inside than it looks from the outside. Lots of toys from great brands to choose from for all ages and a great variety. Legos, teddy bears, dolls, hot wheels etc. I think they may have it all! Came in here to buy a gift. I got the cutest, age-appropriate stuffed animal at such a great value. Prices in this store are very reasonable and comparable to online prices and sometimes even better if there's a sale. Plus, love supporting small, local businesses. Customer service was awesome. So helpful and kind. Pointed me in the direction of what I came in for. They even offered to wrap my gift for me. Metered parking and garage parking close by.

This shop is located on the 2nd floor of The Block plaza. Coming from Sawtelle, you into a hallway and up a set of stairs. You are immediately greeted with everything TCG related. There are sealed products along the wall, show cases with graded cards and fan made merch?, folders with loose singles. Then along side of the area near the window you'll see table set up for gaming. There is a lot to check out, I can't say the prices are retail but more likely at competitive market rates. The craziest part is, that is not all. Walking towards the opposite side of the shop are sports cards. The area is not equally as large as the TCG side but there was for sure a lot to look at.
