“I saw Crush Comics on a YouTube news channel about the burglary, so glad you were able to track the lowlifes down and had them arrested, looks like they were America's Dumbest Criminals who thought no one would investigate and find them on ebay, pretty stupid.”

“I'm not sure if I can even call it a store but more of a warehouse that is open to customers. It was a bit difficult to find where the entrance was because there was no clear sign out front. Regardless, upon entering there was a small lobby with lower value items in front and a section of the warehouse in the back that you can peruse for a crap ton of gunpla, model kits, and scale figures. The only downside is, nothing is sorted in the back so you have to do a bit of thrift shopping. Still, the guy working the back was super helpful in helping me find stuff. If I'm ever back in Hayward, definitely coming back since everything is reasonably priced and they carry figures and model kits that are hard to find online.”

I love taking my son there, as it far surpasses Games of Berkeley, for reasons I cannot mention publicly. The staff here is welcoming and attentive, ensuring a comfortable environment for my 3.5-year-old without any overwhelming surprises. Their helpfulness transforms toy shopping into a genuine pleasure.”

“The owner and staff at this place are always nice and welcoming. I like their selection of Magic the Gathering product and the variety of card sleeves that they have in the store. I like to check in once in a while and look through their draft chaff and buy singles for decks I am building or just want to collect. Overall, I've been popping in and out of the store since around 2016 and I've always had a good time there. I recommend checking this place out.”

“After my popcorn excursion I decided to stay out a bit and go to Michael's, enjoy the fresh air. I've been watching Bob Ross lately. I find him to be very calming. He's inspired me to tap into my artistic side. I did not purchase anything. I just perused the art section and beading section to get an idea of what I want to start with. Anytime I had a question there was a staff member nearby available to answer my question. Pricing varies by the level of quality you are seeking. Eager to get into my new hobby.”

“My brother and I came in randomly on a coffee run and came across Mantiques. 2 49ers jackets caught my brothers eyes. Coming back 2 more times, he finally decided on bringing these 2 jackets home. These guys have a great treasure box of everything you can think of. They also have a great welcoming set of door open to anyone passing by. Don’t forget to get a free toy at the door when you leave- “ONE PER KID. BIG KIDS OK TOO” ?”

“Today we celebrated my daughters 9th bday at Micheals Union City, CA
This was the best birthday party till date I have arranged for kids because of below reasons:
1. Nominally priced even in this inflation
2. Clean big birthday room
3. Fun projects for the kids to occupy and hold their interest. So parents need not worry or run behind them
4. Fantastic party coordinator Ms. ALEXIS who was very patient and great with kids
5. Ability to bring your own food so you need not worry about your guests food preference
6. Good coordination calls before party by store manager Mr. Julian
