“I went to top canvas on a Wednesday not expecting to find any Sonny angels because they’re so hard to find nowadays. When I walked in I was immediately greeted by an associate named Angel and he was super helpful! The moment he knew I was looking for Sonny angels, he showed me everything they had! I ended up taking two Sonny angels and a collectors Sonny Angel which was cool! He was super dope and just made the whole Sonny Angel experience better! Customer service was 10/10 and I’ll be back for more Sonny angels lol :))”
“A lot of everything here from comic books to toy figures to hard to find Legos. Vintage figurines and toys are their thing here. Lots of Star Wars toys, figures and Lego too. They sure packed a lot of goodies in the small shop. I liked the wide selection of various Lego figurines too.”
“What a hobby shop should be. Folks if they don't have it. You don't need it. Over the top friendly service knowledge beyond measure and an inventory to rival any, anywhere. Thank you guys for the help and the slot car fix. If you are in the area, stop in. There is something for any slot car guy or gal.”

1047 W Carson St, Torrance“Ran into MTVJack here working at the counter in a cheap spiderman suit. He told me that he lost his dl after 3 dui and this guy still not sober. Another customer started to shoplift and he donned his spider man mask and confronted the robber but missed him and destroyed a table with merchantdise on. What a poor dude. Felt bad for him. Hope he get back to his former glory.>> Most likely his pilot didn't air. His acting was very good but I didn't feel the taping came out funny enough to be picked up by networks.”
“They have super good prices, I got some maternity pants for $9 which is just amazing! They're super nice and accept card. Only thing is you'll have to prepare with lots of time because they have so many things you can spend a good minute there. Definitely coming again”
“I went in here when visiting LA to buy books for my kids and nephews (of varying ages). The staff were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, and helped me pick books for each of them that were absolutely fantastic.”

10AM - 6PM
2122 Lincoln Blvd, Venice“Great place. When I walked in there were three employees behind the counter, and they immediately greeted me and asked how they could help. I needed advice on getting a gift for a 3 yr old and they were full of suggestions. There are previous reviews warning of inattentive teenager employees, but that problem seems to have been fixed. I'm glad I went and will go again.”

“Beware!! Enter at your own risk. It's sooooo hard to leave this store without buying something. They have EVERY pop animation merch from around the world, starting with an awesome Funko Pop collection. Every inch of the store is covered in American & Japanese paraphernalia. You'll definitely be leaving your money if you enter this place with a kid or girl. You've been warned.”

6000 Sepulveda Blvd Space D3, Culver City“Walked in on a Saturday in desperation of finding a birthday gift to give to my niece. Lily was the first person to approach me to help me; she was able to walk me through the entire process and was so sweet and positive. Definitely look for Lily if you’re coming here”
“This is truly a kids dream store for realistic and detailed toys. My son (and I) really enjoy the weight, feel, realism, and durability of most of the Bruder toys. The staff was friendly and helpful- there were some discounts available for in store purchases not found online. Can't recommend this brand of toys enough! Thank you for the great service and toys!”
“The workers are so nice! When I went there I was there to get a smiski or sonny angel and I found out they had some left. The girl who helped me out was extremely kind. So I told her choose which box I should get. She asked me which one I wanted and she started shaking the boxes like how I would do it and guessing which one was inside. After I left the store came back minutes after and opened the box with her. AND TO MY SURPRISE IT WAS THE ONE I WANTED!! I WAS SO HAPPY WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE THIS!”

28 Peninsula Center, Rolling Hills“Kaitlyn (not sure how she spells her name) was absolutely fantastic. I had a large balloon order (9 red and 4) and she happily did it for me, with a smile! Even though I bogged her down with this order, she was still attentive to the other customers and greeted everyone. I was shocked find out she was new! I would have thought she had been working there longer. I am going to shop there more and spend twice as much money than I would have.”
“Very nice owners, family owned business, tons of gently used second hand kids stuff here. I donate all of our old Jurassic World toys here so if your kid likes dinosaur toys, this is where you need to come!”
“This is my favorite game store!
I come here every once in a while to get Magic: The Gathering cards or look through bulk singles. It's a very comfortable place for me. I'm a woman and I used to be kind of afraid of game stores, but I have felt nothing but safe here. Great selection of MTG and Warhammer items, really fun draft events, and kind staff. Some people have been saying that the staff is rude, but I have never once gotten that impression. They always help me if I'm looking for something obscure, and when I was just starting to get into MTG, they were very kind, explained things well, and didn't gatekeep. Also I always find great gifts for family members when I'm here, which is a huge bonus!”

915 West Manchester Boulevard, Inglewood“Today I went to video LAX and I was super impressed with the helpful employee... I was a little embarrassed when I walked in and he was able to guide me through effortlessly... I think because Julio made me feel so comfortable I will go back often. Thanks for hiring helpful employees!!!!”
“I love this store! Their clothes are organic and made in Los Angeles! Super cute and comfy kid's and women's clothing, toys and home/kitchen stuff etc. I highly recommend if you are into the natural/sustainable living or looking for adorable baby gifts!”
“I love this place so much! Cool anime items you can buy! Friendly staff! And you got japanese and bts and etc stuff! Bit small but still a welcoming place, i go here at least every week like 3-5 times, you’ll see me with my friends!”

2413 Main St, Santa Monica“Though it's small, I found the space delightful and tastefully curated. Interesting coffee table books, instruments, home decor, painted sculptures, jewelry, and so much more. Great place to find something artistic, creative, and unique.”
“I didn't know there was a Puzzle Zoo on Main till last week. I used to shop a lot at the 3rd street Promenade location. This shop on Main is small, with great selection of toys, collectibles, games, puzzles. Nice customer service, street parking. Overall, a more laid back shopping vibe! A nice discovery for me while walking around in Santa Monica recently! Great resource for gifts for peeps of all ages!”
“Nice but small. The building is huge, but where the toys are is about the size of friendly express. I did buy a Barbie on sale for 10.00. The rest of the items are about the same price as in store. Still had fun looking.”
10AM - 6PM
3002 Main St, Santa Monica“My daughters faces all lit up when we walked in. In a super small store but for the miraculous ladybug fans that they are, this was plenty. Made an appointment and it was a personal shopping experience.”
“I believe most, if not, all locations are self service which is good and an easy check out process. I had never been to this location and was in the area so I decided to check it out. I'm sure glad I did. I was able to find a lot of items that I was looking for at other locations. The value is obviously good... some items were more than $5 but still a good deal. If you did need any help, there was an employee ready to help. The only bad thing about coming here is parking... very busy since there's also a Trader Joe's next door and a Starbucks, among other businesses. But if you get lucky, good for you! My patience tends to run low at times but I didn't have to drive around too long to find a spot.”
