So much cool stuff, lovely friendly staff, a nice mix of art and vinyl figures and collectibles. Difficult to drag my 7 year old away! Awesome spot.

Can't say enough good things about this place, a hidden gem in the city that I can't believe I haven't posted a review of yet. Love love love it, always take my out of town guests here and have gotten a lot of beautiful art for my home from the rotating exhibits!
Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery, established in July 2004, is located on the border of Chicago's Lincoln Park and Lakeview neighborhoods in a beautiful vintage building. Since opening, Rotofugi has grown to become one of the world's premier sellers of designer toys from artists all over the world. Rotofugi features a diverse selection of vinyl figures, blind box and capsule toys, plush, pop culture collectibles and more from designers across the globe. The adjoining Rotofugi Gallery features monthly art exhibits by a range of both local and nationally known artists.
Other Information
Parking: Street
This Lincoln Park destination, besides being one of the only designer-toy shops in the Midwest, has gained a reputation for being one of the best designer-toy shops in the world. It stocks a wildly diverse selection of vinyl figures and pop-culture collectibles from creative brands across the globe, including Kidrobot, Funko, Tokidoki, and Amuse. Still, it's their ?blind box? toys that sell fastest-customers don't know which toy in a collection or series they're buying until they open the box post-purchase. The shop's other areas come with surprises, too: An adjacent gallery houses artwork, and its 1,000-square-foot space is available for private events (when it's not hosting monthly BYOB Drink n' Draw parties).
