“I recently visited E-magine Toys and it was a total blast! ? The store had an incredible selection of toys for kids of all ages. From action figures to board games, they had it all. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, and they helped me find the perfect gift for my niece. The store was well-organized and had a fun and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend checking out E-magine Toys for all your toy shopping needs!”
“Bebeang has everything you need for your baby! The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful, answering any questions we had. Strongly recommend going to the store to try out any strollers you are considering.”

“I love shopping here and the employees here are very friendly and always helpful . People who have made complaints about how they are treated poorly maybe they should have stopped and think hey maybe I deserved the poor treatment from the employee/s and don’t be a stickler and always expect to be greeted the minute you walk in.You are not a KING or anything ?. So be mindful of your actions first before pointing fingers at others.”
“Came in here on a whim with my 3 year old looking for cars and from the moment we walked in the staff was so friendly, helpful and kind. We spent a lot of time there browsing before my son finally decided on his cars and never felt rushed or unwelcome. Truly a gem to find and they had so many collectibles, figurines and other toys.”

“Great store to buy or even just look at nostalgic items. Be warned, you will end up buying some cool stuff.I also ended up having my vehicle serviced at the same place. My car was well taken care of, and I was treated fairly. I will be back again with my other vehicles, and I will recommend this auto repair to all my friends.”
“Kidz toys has a delicious Swedish candy bar. The candy was so fresh and delicous. I brought some home to my family and they all loved it. Also the toy selection is amazing. They carry things you don’t find anywhere else.”
“Love it! Decent HO collection and HUGE Lionel collection. This is the only brick and mortar store TrainWorld in Brooklyn is only a warehouse with online orders only so do not bother trying to visit the Brooklyn location. Oh, and Bobby from The Sopranos was offed in this store in the infamous Lionel Blue Comet scene and there's tons of memorabilia.”
“The owners know all their products and are very experienced with importing merchandise that otherwise might be difficult to attain here in the States. From Transformers to Gundam, from Power Rangers to Ultraman, from One Piece to Jujutsu Kaisen, they’ve quite literally have it all. My brother and I will be frequenting this spot quite a lot in the near future and I hope anybody that is even remotely interested in shopping collectibles or hobby items that you will give this place a chance and fall in love with the atmosphere as did my brother and I!!”
“Fun stuff toys is our go to toy store. Our physical go to toy store I should say. There aren't many toy stores around anymore… I remember growing up we had Toys "R" Us we had KB toys. We had a bunch of different toy options but then again, that was before Amazon… It's nice to bring my son to an actual physical toy store and see him experience the way I used to at Toys "R" Us even my two older kids had Toys "R" Us but now Everybody orders everything off of Amazon or online… But if you want to bring your child to an actual physical toy store, just like what we used to have growing up this would be the place to go! Sure it is a quite a bit smaller than the toy stores we used to have, but again at least there is one physical place you can bring them to strictly designated to toys. The prices obviously are a little bit higher than what you would pay on Amazon for a specific toy, I know because I've done it while in the store and saw a significant difference in pricing… But I feel like you're paying for the experience also, if that even makes sense. It's nice to be able to bring your child and see him or her. Enjoy the toys before you actually purchase them. I would highly recommend fun stuff toys not because of the pricing, because it's significantly higher, but just to watch your children enjoy their shopping experience in an actual toy store. They have a great selection, the store itself is always very clean, and we can spend an hour or two just walking around the store even though it's smaller because of the experience, they will receive while shopping. I love seeing that continuous smile on his face, moving from toy to toy and actually trying them out before the actual purchase. To me, the smile, and the laughter of my child is worth every single penny!”
“This is my favorite comic store. Peter, the owner is incredibly knowledgeable and ready to recommend new reads as well as classic comics of all genres.
If you’re looking to start a weekly subscription, or add that special book you’ve always wanted, Phoenix Comics should be your first stop!
Thank you for a continually wonderful experience, Peter!”
“Has everything you need to throw a party as far as fancy tableware that’s disposable. Fairly priced items. Tons of kitchen gadgets along with great random items”
“On one of the worst days of my life where my son was just out of control - two women who work at this store - Vickie and Stephanie showed me kindness and compassion when most people just judge and ridicule . I will never forget them and what they did for me yesterday . This company , this store , and the people working there deserve nothing but the best . These women were two angels and Lego is a good company with people that care about the special needs community in a real and meaningful way”

“No weekend is complete without a run to 5 Below. It's always for something that's needed like a phone charger cord and then I wind up seeing so many other things that I feel like I must have. This location is usually pretty well stocked and the staff is friendly. Every once in a while they're short handed up front but they seem to make it work. On this trip I got pillows and a throw for my guest bedroom because they were super cute and affordable. I also bought another bookcase/organizer because I used one of theirs for my pop up shop set up and it works really great. Even though some things are more than $5 most of my items were actually $5. If you have a very small child, I'm warning you they have lots of cute toys and a lot of candy especially near the checkout so either prep them before you go in or don't bring them.”
“These people absolutely rock! Just heard of them today and went, loved the experience the gentlemen went above and beyond to help me find a charger for my revo 3.3 after I looked everywhere and no luck. and also got me a quart of fuel for a good price. Came all the way from Bronx New York costumer 4L now!”
“Karen was such a help in choosing gifts for my brother (an adult with multiple disabilities). He and his group-home housemates were delighted with her choices and one of the staff thought they would be perfect for her special-needs relative. I was glad to pass along your address and Karen's name.”

“I love this variety card and gift store. They have almost everything including lottery. I never walk out without buying something. There Willow Tree collection is so up to date. I love gazing at them. Of course I buy one here and there. There cards are plentiful and beautiful. Have fun there.”
“Birthday gift for my son and he was thrilled!! Price was great and better than Amazon. Shipping was free. They keep Lego sets and lots of choices. He went straight to it after school today too.”
“I don't go frequently but it's always a nice break for me. Good variety. Good staff. Appreciate Ya'll for allowing this guy to revisit an old hobby from back when. ???”
“Floral park is tiny, but cute and cozy. Definitely helps narrow down your selection. Store is always organized and clean. Employee Alesia is hands down the best. She is very knowledgeable and helpful! Very much recommend her. Her wrapping is excellent. Mattys is worth the money. We love it there!”
“What a delight to have a toy store in the neighborhood!! I felt nostalgic entering the store and it reminded me of KB toy store. I love that they offer to gift wrap. Will be coming here to buy my son more toys!”
