“This Toy Life is great! One of my favorite local toy stores to go to! Bobby T is knowledgeable and friendly. Great selection of toys, and is always putting out new things, running sales, or events in store.

This place is a great place to bring your kids or to find that one item you’re missing in your collection, be sure to check this place out.”

“Heartbroken to see that this store is closing. It will leave a big hole in this block!The storefront is unassuming, but this store is amazing. I am so sorry for not stopping in long ago! This shop is well-stocked with everything you need to make art — from paints and canvas to popsicle sticks for craft projects with little ones: jewelry findings, magic markers, drawing pads, stickers, kits…If you can think of it, it is probably there. Also puzzles, games, gifts, and high-end greeting cards. A great place for stocking stuffers or last minute gifts! Friendly staff is ready to guide you to what you need or to leave you alone if you wish to browse. Prices are very reasonable. If you are anywhere near downtown New Haven you have to check this place out!”

“Nice shop , t's been there for years, since 1996 I believe so they are definitely doing something right!They have the basics, comics, cards, gaming and also statues, action figures, and other stuff like shirts, etc.I don't do cards and games, so I won't say that much only that they have a good amount of both and it all looks recent so I would wager it's current and new stock..When I go I go for the funny books ( a term my Grandfather would use when I was a wee lad getting Richie Rich, Hot Stuff the devil and Hulk comics when I'd go with him to the grocery store.My son and I lean towards independent publishers, like Image, IDW, Boom, Aftershock and Avatar back when they had several horror and action comics like Crossed, Uber (definitely not ride share ) and titles those lines. We usually find you at like or just learned about and willing to try, but the selection on these books are a little light, but these are niche titles not everyone will like, and they are there to make money after all, and you will find all the popular Marvel and DC books with the famous heroes there and in good supply.I don't collect like I used to but I still like to look for something new to try every once in a while and I've never walked out empty handed or with buyers remorse trying a new title, and whether your looking your your DC or MCU favorites or something of the beaten path, you won't regret stopping by and checking the store out.”

“Great spot for vintage to newer titles. Tho I don't believe they sell new products in store. Except just newest releases and pre-orders. Atleast that's how it was last time I went to a Game X XhNge9. Tho the one in Branford Robbed my little brother they gave him in 2018-2019 ish only 300bucks store. Credit for maruo/duny full in box with system and Gun came as a combo. Had Zelda and Link 2 Both full in box Zelda was golden o e opened and one unopened. He has a Artari 2600 with a tote filled with games for every Artari ever released. I told him wait for me to get outta work but he wanted to rush, what these idiot didn't know was I knew the peixe5and what they were doing they enwvr even rang the trade in and paid him in. A 350 vifg5card they purchased and told him those were market values. Luckily I told him to keep me all the Mario games for NES & SNES and I didn't have a SNES Full In Box yet and one was in the storage unit we went 2/3s me 1/3 him lol.So most was mine I picod8the most e spenaive stuff till leaving him mad doe to make and this idiot went and had gamexchange employee's in Branford, CT give him a gift card 4 not even a quarter of mRket value for the lot at the time.
