“Visited today to check out the new world cup sets and Karen helped me throughout. She was very sweet and helpful! This is why the Tyson’s one is my favorite lego store!!!”

“Stopped by while traveling and I’m happy that I did.
Laz offered great help for the PAB wall, and Kaleb helped me with checkout. Both were very friendly and helpful.
Special shoutout to Laz because his help was above and beyond. He paid close attention to what I picked and offered to show the bricks that were in stock but weren’t on the wall yet, and kept interacting with customers & staff with high and positive energy.”

“They have a HUGE selection! I like to bring my son here to walk around and look at things he might want for a holiday, he always has a blast. They have some great legos sets.”
“Trading in my old phone for an upgrade at Verizon next door, my eight-year-old daughter convinced me to pop in beforehand. It's a large, charming toy store with lots of toys, books, and games for kids of all ages. My daughter loved the corner of stuffed animals and the squooshy toys.”

“Came in around closing time and expected grumpy sales staff. They were friendly and positive and bought more because of their great attitude. Had a great selection to choose from in stock.”
“We love this toy store and visited frequently when our child was young. They carry toys mainly for younger children, though they also have a lot of fun games for families and adults. It's a very small shop but well-stocked from floor to ceiling, and over time we got to know Charlie pretty well. We still go back whenever we need to buy presents for younger children or for charity toy drives. We would much rather support a place like this than Amazon or big box stores, and Charlie has a loyal clientele. Their hours can be erratic, so it's best to call ahead to make sure they're open. Highly recommended!”
“We love our neighborhood toy store, Doodlehopper. They have an amazingly curated inventory packed into a charming, engaging space. And it is the best place to go for birthday party gifts--with gift wrapping included!”
“We stopped by today for the first time in years when we were in the area. It was absolutely fantastic, with loads of things even for tweens! We will make the drive for future visits for sure!”
“Frank is the absolute best. I walked in and explained that I wanted to gift myself a Perfect Grade RX-93 V-Gundam for my birthday, Frank took my number down and I had it within a week. It's always a pleasure stopping in. And being next to Rocket Fizz is an added plus.”
“Well stocked toy store in McLean with parking available. They have everything from soup to nuts and the puzzle selection is excellent- the staff is very helpful and knowledgeable, especially Katrina. They also wrap presents for free!”
“Went with my wife just to look. Found something we loved but it was HUGE. Erin, the associate, scoured every nook and cranny to find us every size available. Made my wife's night.”
“Nothing but great experiences working with Linda!! She’s the best. Beautiful store, great service and tons of amazing products to choose from. Love her array of bamboo pajamas”

“Lovely store. Lots of great, interesting gifts to choose from. Wish I could have bought more things, but was on a budget. ? The owner was very kind and helpful. Will definitely stop by again when I visit DC.”
“We’ve taken our 1 1/2 year old here a few times and we all enjoy looking at the huge variety of toys offered. The owner is incredibly nice and personable. The prices are decent too. Will definitely keep returning to this store!”
“Kaine was so kind and so helpful. Honestly he made this our best build a bear experience yet. My son decided after the fact he wanted to add a second sound. He popped the seemed and resewed the new sound perfectly. He went above a beyond and was so awesome!”
“I went to 5 And Below today for a gift and was helped by a beautiful young lady with the name of Manel. I was greeted by her and she helped me put together a Wonderful gift for my Granddaughter. She was very helpful and was attending other customers while checking me out. Will visit again.”
“I am a Popmart purist because there are way too many scammers out there but it was really hard to pass up the Stitch Hacipupu I discovered in the store earlier this evening. I knew they were difficult to find-even from resellers-and the price of $130 wasn’t too bad.
When I was checking out I asked if I could return it if it doesn’t authenticate and was told no, which I wasn’t too happy about. I bought it anyway because fake or not my daughter LOVES Stitch, and I’m so happy I took the risk!! They gave me the shrink wrapped box and when I scanned it after purchase, it was authentic! My daughter took it out of the box the second we got home and he’s perfect ?. Everything he’s supposed to come with was in the box and he’s in perfect condition. I could not be happier!
A note about the prices: there is obviously an upcharge over retail for the items, which is a small price to pay to ensure that they are authentic. I’ve gone to mall stores in other states and they unapologetically charge $100 for a Lububu regardless of series. I won’t buy over retail something I can get relatively easily on my own and I have good luck with Labubus, but I was impressed that they were charging 20-40 dollars less for Labubus than I’ve seen charged in other places.
(Pictures are from a Google search to show the product I am referring to. As I said, he came out of the box as soon as we walked in the door and his costume immediately came off ??♀️?? so I didn’t bother taking a picture of the one we actually got, but I promise he’s just as perfect!)”
“The staff is consistently helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable, the storefront and game room are pleasant and comfortable, and the product selection is excellent—the RPG selection going well beyond the typical D&D-5e-only is a great feature.”
“The whole team at Tugooh toys have taken great care of me over the years. this is the place to get all your gifts, squishies and whatever else your kids could want! Ive never been happier than working with the staff here and I can’t wait to come back. They have the best NEEDOH selection, BEST BUTTER SQUISHY EVER, and i love their specs. Thank you to Tugooh Toys for making my day better always.”
“Absolutely gorgeous children’s clothes! The store is always very well put together and clean and tidy whenever we come. Probably the best place to get children’s clothes in the galleria. The store is never too busy but the staff is always kind and helpful. Perfect place to pick up a baby shower gift!”
“Ahmed, is absolutely amazing with customer service. He took the time to show my father, the correct cable and ear AirPods for his phone. he is an asset to your company.”
“I brought in a bunch of games to have checked out and sold. The process was very simple, but I called/emailed first of course. This place has such a nice atmosphere! Haha, it made me want to keep the games I sold! I’m a little old person now… and well, I just don’t have the time to game like I used to. So, I’m glad I got to sell the games at a fair price :) Great store and friendly staff.”
