“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.”
“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.”
“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.”
“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!”

24416 Crenshaw Blvd # 3, Torrance“Such a cute charming store! Neat selection! If you love Kawaii collectibles this is the spot for you! You can even trade! The owner is such a nice man. He loves what he does. Ill definitely be back!”
“Good prices, nice owner Many of the low star reviews 1 either they have no idea what theyre talking about or, they're obviously uneducated. If you dont like the prices that you are given go ahead and pay for extra to get it shipped from somewhere online.”
“Brought our kids here for a little special gift. It was a Wednesday afternoon and it wasn't busy at all. The associate that helped us was absolutely amazing and made the experience so special. They will walk you step by step in the process of building your "new friend" of course everything has a price so feel free to clarify if needed. Some of the heftier characters don't have a lot of outfit options so if this is important to you guys opt for a smaller friend so that you have more to choose from. If you can help it try to come when it's not as busy to get the best experience, if not no worries the associates are still glad to help. Recommend for all family members regardless of age!”
“A true gem in Torrance. Family-owned business since the 90s. I used to come here every weekend as a kid and I can't believe that they're still around. I always try to make a trip here whenever I'm back in town. The owners are so sweet and explains why they have such loyal customers, some of them with their own families and kids now. Excellent customer service, they give great suggestions based on what you need. 100% authentic, they used to hold official tournaments by Konami. They have a great selection of booster packs and boxes. The way to pull a Mega Pokemon or any rare card in general is to buy sealed boxes, which trust me, you'll know if it's re-sealed right away by the way the seal looks.
They used to display individual cards but things have definitely changed, especially after COVID, and they are moving towards more online sales & business. Everything is still available, you just need to look it up online beforehand. They allow you to purchase online or call-in to save cards seen online and come-in to do pick-up so that you save on shipping costs.
They occasionally buy used cards and those are the single cards listed online. Please remember that this is a small business and they are not buying to collect, they are buying to make a living. There are a lot of costs and time spent sorting, organizing, storing, listing, and potentially shipping these individual cards. The owner is always upfront on how they buy cards. If you are selling singles, they will look up market price and offer you a price they feel worth it for them to buy and resell. The price is always mutually agreed on between the seller and buyer. There are plenty of avenues for one to sell privately, such as Facebook Marketplace and eBay if you are hoping to get 100% market price. This store is based on honest, hard-working people and I will always rather spend my money here, rather than a corporate conglomerate like Walmart or Target! I hope they stay in business forever.”

21712 Hawthorne Blvd #273, Torrance“Cute store, surprisingly not packed compared to other Sanrio stores I've been to. A lot of the popular ones, Hello Kitty, Melody, Kuromi, and Cinnamorrol. Not much choco cat or Kuropi. definitely had Gudetama!!”
“They are only open during a warehouse sale, which they post the date for on their social media. Was given a rundown about how they handle the crowd and received a paper with a price sheet. Employees were polite and quick to answer questions as well as restocking product. They were also asking customers what they were looking for and would try to see if they had any. Overall a fun and easy experience and I can't wait for the next one.”
“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 :))”
