If you need to diversify your toy collection and are tired of plastic and commercial (Disney…read moreprincesses) toys, I highly recommend this place. They have wooden puzzle boxes and other brainteasers, wooden puzzles that can be arranged in endless variations that even a 3yo can do (tessellations), magnet puzzles, and many more manufactured boxed puzzles and games for many different ages. I am a firm believer in play as education for toddlers so most toys are educational but these actually challenge the mind and my toddler feels proud of herself for completing these. The prices are reasonable and much of their stuff is made near Charleston. They also have a stand with games, puzzles, and puzzle boxes in the covered marketplace. Also, the lady that works in the store is helpful and nice. I don't know how she managed to serve all the customers/kids packed into the store without stressing out! The folks at the stand are pretty nice too as long as you keep the products on the table while you're trying them out. ;)

John and I have a 2 1/2 year old grandson and a new granddaughter on the way! Due very soon. I found the magnetic pajamas and was determined to pick one out- that took easily 20 minutes. Then we were off exploring more of the store- the cashier might have nudged us to go upstairs!. This shop has three floors with stairs or an elevator to continue the shopping experience! We picked out a toy four our 1 year old niece and a couple more goodies for the grandbabies and I told him we had to check out before we broke the triple digit threshold- because that's easy to do. My daughter would have loved to have shopped here! Great gift buying.

I wouldn't recommend buying or even going to this place- especially if you have a child who is still developing an immune system. They have a great selection of toys, a bit pricey though. Please stay away from this place. I am immune compromised and I have the worst migraine for hours after I was in there for 5 minutes. Don't buy from here, or go either. This is coming from someone who loved coming here as a kid. I'm sad to see what has happened.

Excellent comic book shop in the Charleston area. Had time to kill waiting for a flight and…read morehappened upon this spot. Nice selection of trade paperbacks and a decent selection of action figures (lots of vintage stuff) and tons of Pops. Also had a lot of back issues. Fairly large space as far as comic book shops go, so was really fun to explore. The real highlight was the gentleman at the register. Can't recall his name (he recommended a nearby convention hosted by the store that I checked out and was really cool), but he was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful - let me know about an issue that came out that I hadn't been aware of based on my purchases. Great spot!

The only critique I have is that they sell bags with around 4-5 loose figures for 30-40 dollars, which is absolutely insane for the condition and quality the figures are in.
