Part toy store and adjacent Toy Museum, both are fabulous to wander through and spend a half hour or so. The staff was excellent and friendly, and informative about the history of the toys in the store. Enjoyed talking of shared Star Wars experiences too without hesitation! Outstanding store in lovely downtown Victoria.

Ok, WOW! Frickin', just, WOW! This store is/was everything…read moreI wanted it to be. We stumbled in with zero expectations, and it's just wall-to-wall cool stuff! If you're interested in anything toy centric, this place is completely boss! I found a Funko Pop that I'd been wanting, normally only found in 3-pack, all by his lonesome. Also, the guy that helped me recommended a great place for poutine, and other cool stuff to do around town. Total score!

High quality brands of toys for reasonable prices. Lots of crafts for various ages. Large selection of dollhouses and accessories. Small book selection, mostly featuring Canadian topics. I even spotted a few gems that I used to play with when I was a kid.

My children were waiting patiently for me to clean up our table and were against the window looking in the store. I went to walk in with them and buy them some toys for being good all day. A younger person came and opened the door as I approached and I thought they were going to open the door for us but quite the opposite happened. The person came outside and angrily told my children that they were too close to the glass and needed to back away from the store. I have never seen such terrible treatment of children at a toy store. Seriously? I don't know why anyone would want to buy anything from a place that treats children so poorly.

This guy is tripping balls if he thinks people will pay for these prices for fakes…read more The secondary game market profit margins aren't always the best, so the prices will look very similar to what you would find online. So I understand the prices aren't always necessarily a deal, per say. What troubles me about this place is finding 2 different games with a photocopied cover, then charging market value. Pulling a fast one on a customer is immoral and pathetic. It's possible the owner is unaware of this, but as a seller of used items, you should know your product. So I'm willing to bet they just don't care. Do not come here.
