“I absolutely love this location for both purchasing and selling items. For starters the staff are amazing when it comes to helping find what is needed and welcoming you into the store. I almost did not go due to the reviews but given my past experience in a similar industry I know that when people don't get their way they try to sabotage places. I am happy I chose to go into this location. It has a wide selection of clothing and even when the staff are extremely busy they still welcome customers and help them find things when needed. While I was there someone became rude to a staff member and despite this customers attitude the staff remained professional. I will be continuing to shop at this location it is clean and a positive environment. The staff all seem to get along and work together.
When selling to the location the staff are quick and accurate with timing. I brought in multiple bins and they purchased a lot of the items and explained to me why they passed on the rest. They answered all of my questions that I asked and were very transparent about the way that they priced the items.
Don't let the negative reviews of Karen's push you away from this Once Upon a Child. This was the best experience I had at any of the locations I have been to. I almost did and I am happy that I didn't and chose to give this place a try.

“I went through my memory after going to the Lego store at the mall, and I just couldn't find a reason to give the lego store anything less than 5 stars. Lego has been my childhood and even though it's sad to see the prices rise over the years, the quality of the sets haven't declined. The selection of legos that I saw was incredible. My favorite, the new and redesigned death star. I can't afford to buy a $1000 lego, but wow that thing is awesome. I got the home alone lego, and Im not disappointed. Even if the set isn't something I very much enjoy, just building any lego is really fun and good for keeping busy. It was a really kid friendly store with an area outside for building legos while parents can sit down and relax for a minute. Lines can be long to get in the store sometimes, but I would say it's rare, and the lines move fast anyway. Even if you're not going to buy anything, I would still recommend coming and taking a look around.”
“Wacky, thorough, and always guaranteed to make you marvel at their selection. I went here a lot as a kid for plane and car models, and continue to shop for various specialty items, gifts, and the sheer novelty. I have gotten board games, puzzles, die cast Ferraris, sandpaper, model rocket parts, and much more. Also really enjoy bringing my father-in-law, as he is a model train enthusiast - Hub Hobby is paradise for him.”
“Pretty neat toy store, a lot of items crammed into every nook and cranny, well organized for the chaos of toys. I'm not sure if I saw a single shelf, lol. Went in for a quick browse, walked out 40 minutes later. Check it out if you are in the area!”
“Well actually I discovered on my way to a appointment a bag of items that had apparently been stolen a couple nights before and returned them to the store but they were quite happy to get them back and said thank you.So I guess okay with the store itself.”
“If you love Lego, this is the off brand store for you. If you don't, this might be the store that converts you! They specialize in unofficial Lego, specifically military sets. You'll find jet fighters, submarines, humvees, and more. You'll still find a selection of official Lego sets along with stations to build your own mini figures.”
“I've been coming here regularly for about a year to buy cards and play Magic the Gathering. Some of the staff recognize me and I appreciate that. Even those staff I'm not familiar with are responsive and helpful. My preferred local game store in Minneapolis.”
“The pie is to DIE for. When you walk in, you get to pet the Zebra from Zimbabwe which I think is rad. Prices are great too! Selection always proper as well and the staff is really knowledgeable especially Jeff and his love for pumpkin pie. No...I did not have Mushrooms”
“The cutest children’s toy shop (and as an adult, I wanted everything). Unique gifts, stationery, candy, high quality toys, and more. My young friend loved her birthday present, wrapped beautifully!”
“Get customer service. Our board game did not come complete, came back to the store and they ensured we had a complete board game. Now looking forward to hours of fun”
“I’m visited the store to browse the D&D book collection Games by James had, hoping to find something that peaked my interest. While doing so an employee, I believed whose name was Ian, walked up and helped me decide from the selection. I loved that I didn’t even have to ask for help, and I loved even more the advice he provided. I ended up walking away satisfied with a Xanathar’s Guide to Everything.”
“So fantastically happy they had the new Sanrio Halloween bears! My helper Ashley was super nice and we had a wonderful conversation! My next trip Maddy helped me stuff the new Halloween Stitch! I also met a Kayla who is fantastic and sorta my doppelgänger :) I come here a ton of times and each experience is amazing!”

“Love this place! They make shopping for baby stuff so straightforward and enjoyable. Egle was an immense help in finding the best stroller/car seat combo and custom tailored the selection to our needs and lifestyle. They know their products and are super informative!”

“I went to Kiddywampus in Hopkins for the first time the other day! What an amazing toy store! They literally have a little bit of everything including, Barbie, Legos, and Playmobile. I saw art kites, puppets, science kits, books, dress up clothes, stuffed animals and games just to name a few. They had toys for all ages from 0 to 100! They offer gift wrapping and there is even a space for parties or events! It will take a few visits to see everything! Since I have a bunch of kids in my life I will definitely be visiting again and again!”
“Sweets is my go to when it comes to kendamas. I ordered online and left a note asking if they could give me a well balanced kendama for the one I was ordering and they did! They left me the specs of the dama on my packing slip and gave me some candy too! Shout out to the sweets team for spreading the love really do appreciate it!”
“They got a nice Manga and anime related good section, not sure if it's in the middle of building or they were cleaning out though. But if they expand on it I think I could see myself coming back.”
“The swing arrived timely and to the joy of the grandchildren. We had already secured lines to the tree branch so all we had to do was attach the swing lines to the lines from the branch. The swing is perfect, very high quality and easy to install. The first riders were the the grandparents!”
“This was my first trip to a Games by James store the puzzle selection was wonderful. The staff was amazing a big shout out to Steven for holding the puzzle for me and to William plus Anthony helping me get home via Google maps.
Great service overall I will be back.”
“The is a small store but it is jam packed! There are novelty toys, stuffed animals, and things like coloring and maze books. I loved the selection of games and puzzles though and did not leave the shop empty handed. If I'm ever at the mall again I will definitely be sure to stop here.”
“Beautiful store and, wow, what a selection of the latest baby items, especially for newborns and new mommies! Maegge and Kavi were incredibly helpful in the Edina store. The store is a must for buying special gifts to celebrate the new baby; the gift wrapping is gorgeous, and, again, you will find something that no one else carries, especially onesies and sweet baby stuffies, toys and books. While the store seems like an elegant boutique, Pacifier, a woman-owned local business with four locations, carries a lot of inventory and they are serious about their merchandise. Maegge and Kavi went out of the their way to find a product for me, and ultimately found it in another store. I look forward to shopping at Pacifier again and again. Very special place.”
“Quite the snazzy store for big middle aged kiddos to play in. Also, if you need or want to find a unique gift that you can't find in a Target or Walmart store, tis the place to go.
Fun noise makers, kaleidescopic toys, cars, magnetic monsters and more. Plus art supplies like scissors, clay, paper, wiggly squiggly pens, and more.”
“Store manager Jessica is awesome. She had a lot of patience with my questions and helped me a ton with a discount she provided in the store. Definitely coming back when we’re in town!!”
“Brought our kids here to get their ears pierced for the first time. There was only one employee working at the time, but she was fantastic. She did a great job at managing both the register and us and had a great attitude the whole time. She made the experience great for my kids and engaged with them well. I would highly recommend this location.”
“So much fun! Clean and very diverse stations, something for every child from dentist station to baking muffins, to camping in the woods to being a firefighter, this place offers a lot for children and their adult.”
“This is the coolest toy and game store I have ever seen. They have old school toys, new toys, and the odd toy. I found some hard to find toys for my collection. The employees are always polite and helpful. They also have unique Lego sets and board games.”
“The retail worker was friendly when I asked if they had any wired earbuds available at the shop. I was told that there wasn't, but that 5 Below, or Walgreens would have them for super cheap. I was urged to go to 5 Below more because they were a lot cheaper.The store was well-organized. The titles of the newest and biggest hits for the current gaming systems were displayed and easy to see. It was very tasteful. I love going to this GameStop, because they all have such polite and knowledgeable workers, and they have a great selection for games and gaming systems.”
