This store is bigger than what you may expect. It is divided in two--majority of inventory in…read morefront and large gaming area in back. Both areas are spacious with high ceilings. Inventory consists of newer comics, trade paperbacks, graphic novels, art books, board games, trading card games, toy figures, statues, model kits, and model paints. Items not in stock can be ordered for you. There is a long wall displaying the latest issues of comics, and there are boxes of back issues. They focus on newer comics, so you will not find older comics here. If you plan to get an ongoing comic series, then it is recommended that you use the pull-and-hold service and create a pull list. Most comic shops offer this service and can reserve and set aside titles for you to pick up at your convenience. Pull lists and subscriptions help comic shops determine which titles and quantities to order for the entire store.

This is much more than a comic store. If you are looking for collectibles from pop culture, you have come to the right place. Throughout the store they have different figures and other toys. This place is also the Funko Pop palace! They have a huge assortment of the highly collectible and cool vinyl figures. The staff are friendly and very helpful! Great customer service!

I happened to be in area today and figured why not stop by and see if things had changed at Saga…read moreToys in 4 years. Honestly, not much has changed. There is still a wide selection of different toy lines to choose from and the organization has gotten better. Figures had actual price stickers on them this time, but the store continues to be overpriced when compared to other toy stores in the St. Louis area and online retailers, sadly even eBay. Yes I know overhead is a thing, but some figures had an almost 100% markup, example Masters of the Universe: Origins - Deluxe Snake Face MISB priced at $44.95 but MSRP is $23.99 and can be readily found on any of the big online retailers. The figure is not vintage either so I can't understand the justification for the price. My biggest disappointment came when inspecting the Transformer figures and I noticed the store had an over abundance of figures specifically from Wave 1 and Wave 2 of Legacy. Why is this a disappointment you ask? Well these figures were sold in two-packs as part of Wal-Mart's 2024 Black Friday Door Busters and were eventually marked down starting at $17 and then down to $7 per two-pack. Saga simply opened the figures up and marked the price back to MSRP. I'm all for charging a fair rate and since these are technically MSRP there's no scalping of price on these items, but the practice in general feels very scummy. This is now my second revision of my original review back in 2019 and I still cannot recommend buying from Saga. I'm sure the owners mean well and maybe they do have a loyal following of regular customers who buy, but I can't figure out how this store stays open, much less profitable.

The manufacturer Neca Toys is against scalping and mark up of their products and has a contract disclaimer which retailers sign regarding how much they can sell Target exclusive toys at only the retail price. The store clearly sells new release Neca TMNT figures for over ebay pricing and the retail pricing of what would have been $51.99 retail for their mark up price of $124.
