    Gunpla Style - More Gundam model kits

    On a rainy afternoon, my 9-year-old son and I stumbled upon this unassuming little shop tucked away…read moreon the second level above an urgent care. As a middle-aged father looking for a hobby we could share that didn't involve screens or video games, I'd read a bit about Gunpla and decided to give it a shot. What a find! The owner was incredibly helpful and patient with us, taking the time to understand what we were looking for and guiding us to first sets that were perfect for our skill levels. His enthusiasm was genuine, and it made the whole experience fun and welcoming, never overwhelming for complete beginners like us. The prices are very reasonable, which is a huge plus when you're testing out a new hobby with your kid. We both walked out with our own kits, and I have to say, I'm just as hooked as my son! Building these models has been a surprisingly relaxing and rewarding experience, and I'm already looking forward to tackling more complex builds and refining them. I'm planning to return soon to pick up a few more sets for Christmas gifts and to expand my own collection. If you're looking for a screen-free activity to share with your children or just want to explore the world of Gunpla, I highly recommend stopping by this shop. The passion and knowledge of the owner really make all the difference.

The stairs are pretty steep going up and down, so be careful. No elevator from the front, but I dont recall there being an elevator in the back . There is parking in the back or street parking. It is a really small shop but the store owner is really friendly and will assist with placing orders for pick up or just help you in general. My husband shops here more than I do, but the prices are reasonable considering the recent tariffs and tax increases.

    While shopping for mofusand toys online, my search lead me to Top Canvas. For those of you who love…read moretoys and collectibles, this store offers a wide variety of merchandise. Located on the corner of Main Street and Garfield Ave, it is a great place to visit while going for a stroll in the heart of downtown Alhambra. Plenty of great eateries and cinemas in the vicinity as well. A free parking garage is conveniently accessible right behind the shop, in addition to street parking. Although the shop is small, they were able to feature hundreds of items without it being overwhelming. As a newbie to the current line of collectibles, Top Canvas serves as a great introduction to the new trend. As I walked in, a young woman politely greeted me and offered me assistance. Upon request, she promptly directed me to the Mofusand plushies and a wall of keychains. She took down the plushies from the shelves, so I could take a good look at all of them. And then, I spotted one very adorable Hello Kitty plushie holding a strawberry which totally makes a great Valentine's Day gift. For less than twenty bucks, I quickly secured my choice and went on to explore the rest of the shop. The average prices range from $9.99 to $29.99, so you can build up your collections without breaking the bank. Top Canvas is a great place for buying gifts on a budget, as they offer so many cute things for under $20. I also purchased 2 Lokiki blind box plushies as gifts. The gift recipient seems to love it, because it's always fun to open up a blind box. She totally adores her Lokiki plushie. Without a doubt, the highlight of my visit is the wall of Mofusand keychains! At $9.99 each, big or small, these are just too darn cute to pass up. I want them all!! Some of the more expensive and fragile collectibles are showcased behind glass. Great for avid collectors!! Tired of shopping on Amazon like me?? Then support your local business and come to Top Canvas. It's so much more fun to go shopping at a brick-and-mortar store where one can actually physically feel and touch what they're buying.

    Top Canvas is one of many collectible stores in Alhambra and this store specializes in various…read moreblind boxes, anime figures, and plushies. There is a free public parking structure behind the store. Some of their blind boxes are slightly cheaper than same boxes at other similar collectible stores. The anime selection is above average and there's a giant Capsule Corp background (from Dragon Ball) and a giant Luffy figure (from One Piece) to take pictures with. The One Piece trading card vending machine was out of service at the time of my visit. This is one of those stores that is great to at least stop by for those who are into anime or Sanrio plushies. Personally, I still prefer Ebisu Life Store a bit better. P.S. - Due to limited availability of pennies, cash totals are rounded to the nearest $0.05.

    Mission View Plaza is small, but mighty with great eateries and other non-food businesses. I have…read morebeen here primarily to buy cakes and pastries from Paris Baguette. Most recently, I have explored Nem by Summer Rolls for Vietnamese dishes, Half & Half Good Old Time for soy tofu dessert, Old Ferry Donut for gourmet donuts, and Phoenix Dessert for durian rolls and black sesame pudding. Yum, yum, and yum! In addition, they also have other specialty restaurants and shops to offer San Gabriel local residents and visitors. I fall under the latter group for the last 45+ years LOL. I have yet to check out the other biz. I am so looking forward to trying some of them. See you here! Note: Parking is somewhat limited. Aisles are tight. Please take caution when backing out of the parking space. Safe parking. A-Xing Rice Rolls (Chinese inspired) Bay Poke (Hawaiian foods) Bonchon (Korean fried chicken) Fortune Bakery (cakes & pastries) Golden Apple Repair (mobile phone repair) Hui Tou Xiang Noodles House (dumplings) Katsu Sando (chicken katsu) KPOP Republic (music shop) Lavender & Lily (gift shop) Lina Hair Salon (hair & beauty) Paper Cola (hobby shop) Tip Top Mart (Indonesian & Asian groceries) Tony's Tailor Shop (tailoring/alterations) Yuk Gae Jang (Korean soups + noodles)

You might as well park on the streets nearby to save some time if you're a little late for a dinner date. The outdoor seating area is beautiful in front of Paris baguette. The little alley way near a residential building is also very nice and not too scary. I love how many stores opened since Covid as well, I've only come here in the past for Bonchon but now I'll come by for the other places!
