“Went to the store closing sale. The staff was a great help for whatever questions or help I needed. The lineup was crazy long, going to back off the store. There are cheap video games near the front register, so don't wait till you check out; else you'll see them on your way out but it'll be too late - you'll have to get back on line!”
“Had a fantastic time here! Anthony was amazingly helpful, and the atmosphere is great! I highly recommend this place! Will definitely be back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Manager Tamara and the sales team, Dee and Zohra, were extremely helpful. They assisted me in selecting the perfect stroller and car seats for my twin daughters. I highly recommend this place for its excellent customer service and wide variety of baby products.”
“Just purchased four Funko’s: Darius Garland, Shai, Paolo Banchero, and Cade Cunningham from this store. All for fair prices. Great owner too who has a passion for collecting. Definitely coming back!”
“One of my favourite places to go in the GTA for any blind box you can imagine. This place is a gem and the owner is so friendly! Will always recommend this place.”
“A beautiful, full-of-character bookstore that I’ve loved since I moved into the neighbourhood and got the fifth Harry Potter book on release night. My nephew has been a THRILLED recipient of the book-a-month gift (iykyk - if you don’t know … ask). They are a beating heart of Mount Pleasant! They also have a sweet selection of books for adult readers to be tempted while tiny readers browse & pet Mabel. These people know books and know midtown, protect them at all costs!!!”
“We love supporting independent businesses, and Swag Sisters are a great place to score a well curated selection of thoughtful and fun toys and kits. Also, they have Jellycat Plushies.”
“When some places don't have what you are looking for, give them a try. I was able to find my game pieces as well as sleeves all in one convenient location.”

“Amazing Customer Service. Have been looking everywhere for solar eclipse glasses and saw Silly Goose Kid's post on Instagram. Contacted them and bought them virtually! So fast and easy! The owner was very friendly and extremely courteous! I have been in their store so knew these glasses were the best quality. THANK YOU SILLY GOOD KIDS for being so helpful!”
“Wonderful, friendly, and helpful staff. They all seem to genuinely love the product they work with and know a lot about it. Their pick a brick was is smaller than it used to be, but still stocked with fun pieces. I come to Yorkdale just for this store.”
“It’s a very small space but there is a huge selection. My main issue with collecting die cast such as hot wheels was that many stores never stocked them and many would be ripped out or impossible to find. Here there is a wide variety of brands such as Tomica, BMC and MiniGT. And it’s easier to drive out here than to pay an outrageous Customs Tax. I must say I was happy with my Tomica Hummer H2 as it even had a fully working suspension. I would however like to see larger scales as I was unable to see them on their website either.”
“Incredible selection of games! Very knowledgeable staff that know which games are trending. Caroline was very friendly and had great recommendations for me. Will be back!”
“I stumbled upon this hidden gem and I'm so glad I did! I highly recommend this business.
I had a fantastic experience at Toy Centre! Aryan went the extra mile to provide excellent customer service. He was friendly, professional, and made sure our entire transaction went smoothly from start to finish.
Aryan dedicated extra effort and focus to provide a comprehensive and detailed explanation to clarify any questions.
Aryan's customer service is second to none.
The store itself is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate, which made shopping a breeze.The product quality is outstanding with a wide varity of toys surpassing standards.
I was completely impressed with their products, professionalism and customer service.”
“I've been ordering my figures here for a few years now, and I can proudly say this is my go-to figure store. The staff are kind and welcoming, and reply quickly and professionally to all communications.
Fair warning, the interior is a liiittle cramped with all the product. Sometimes I feel like I'm going to cause a chain reaction of collapsing waifus (I am big and tall lol.) If the store is busy it is a little awkward to maneuver, but staff will still let you browse and take your time.
Definitely worth checking out if you're interested in anime collectibles and figures!”

“Ordered online from another province and was initially skeptical about paying via e-Transfer. The ordering experience was very friendly and easy though and they had my order shipped to me by the next afternoon. Support these guys, they're the real deal!”
“the store has really cute and good stuff. you can literally find anything and perfumes are awesome. I went to buy the glasses but couldn't find the one i saw on black Friday ?. overall, best experience”

“Nice calm environment, the lady working at the Scarborough location was so lovely. We came in and bought a jelly cat for me,(mom) my son and my daughter service was so good. Thank you Little Dinosaur Kid

“Visited the store today! Fairview Mall! Bob and Elizabeth were sooo sooo great. Elizabeth further guided me to some variety as per ages. Very kind in explaining! Here only to give them a shout out!! will be back soon! And as far as the bricks goes! Lego's are Lego's!! Always the best!!”
“Arrrrrr, the pirate ship drew me in. Went here to find some things for my brother's kids. Lots of amazing things for kids and adults. They prices are better then I thought by far. Wish I was able to go in the pirate ship. But can't have it all. Thank you for your toys.”
“The first time I came here was about a year ago-- I am from the US. I followed them on IG and loved all the different kinds of stock they get, plus they are one of the few blind box stores with around 19.1K followers on social media so I was eager to see what the hype was about.
Their assortment of boxes is great! Lots of variety. Prices aren't horrible either. The shop is very bright and colorful. The boxes were all displayed and stacked neatly. I noticed a lot of the reviews complained about the cigarette scent- I didn't smell it at all. I particularly love their artist alley in the back half of the store. A great way to support small businesses/artists by buying their merch, etc. I will say the back half of the store (artist alley) is quite messy and a bit disorganized.
I knocked down a point mainly due to customer service. I've been here a total of two times. The first time I received little to no customer service- not even a hi welcome in. Same thing with this most recent visit almost a year later. Coincidentally it was the same female staff worker both times who checked me out. She seemed very stand-offish and a bit intimidating to be honest lol. I would ask about trading because I'm not exactly sure how the intricacies of the trading community/how their store runs besides the selling of blind boxes, and her response made me feel silly for asking like I should've known the answer.
I hate to make a deal out of customer service as it seems like most people who have reviewed didn't have this issue. Perhaps it was just bad luck with the this particular staff both times. But as someone who has worked in customer service before, it's something that can really make a shopping experience memorable.”
“This is a wonderful toy store with interactive and helpful staff. It is my go to everytime I visit Toronto and want to treat my little nieces. Thanks Playful Minds for helping an Aunt stay current and get gifts that brings smiles every time. I appreciate your help and understanding of what's current in the 4-7 year old world!”

“I stumbled across this place when looking online for some Haikyuu and Blue Lock merchandise and fell in love with this place ever since. The storefront is cozy and packed with anime figurines, blind boxes, and a variety of merchandise spanning different series, with new things always popping up. The store owners are incredibly generous and friendly, able to help with any of your questions, concerns and needs. This store is truly my go to and highly recommended if you want to have a good time exploring a hobby shop. I hope more people can get to know this place because it's really super awesome!”
“At Toy Square, I found the exclusive collectible I was seeking. The owner stood out as friendly, trustworthy, and accommodating, ensuring a smooth purchase process. With their assistance, I successfully acquired the item and arranged for its pickup.”
“(Translated by Google) The experience is very good, and the products in the store are also very complete. Will come again.(Original)体验很不错,店里产品也很全 还会再来。”
“Whenever my little one needs new clothes my first thought is to pop by this lovely store. The staff are incredibly helpful and kind and items are very reasonably priced. You can often find brand new clothes with tags on priced way lower than they retail even when on clearance. Items are always in good condition.”

“Was visiting the GTA for the weekend, and stumbled across this awesome place. Great finds at prices that match market value. Don’t be afraid to ask the employees any questions regrading pricing.
The prices fluctuate on some of their products, that’s why everything isn’t labelled with a price - for those who are complaining in the reviews. I found a couple of amazing Knick knack finds and a couple of PS3 games for a very reasonable price and the employee that helped me was willing to make a bargain or two that was beneficial to me as the customer, with the vendor still able to profit and keep the place going.
Great place, will visit again! 5/5”
“Picked up 2 seater G wagon & 2 seater corvette for my kids! called this morning and picked it up this afternoons they had quick responses I would definitely recommend if you are looking for any ride on vehicles for your kids.”
