Loved this little shop! Made friends with the owner of the shoppe. Can’t wait to run into him and his wife at the next curiosities expo!

Awesome store. Walked in and there was a great collection of old toys, comics, and horror items. What set it apart from most other toy/collectible stores was there were a lot of miniatures from smaller artists, which I thought was really cool. Owner was super friendly and well versed in local horror festivals, artists and stuff. Learned a lot and will definitely be back.

Wonderful store full of treasures I’ve seen now where else since my neighbor Sean’s in 1986. Everything from toy soldiers to HeMan, Godzilla and everything in between. Owner was helpful and friendly.

The owner is very cool and the collection is unreal. Perfect for any collector or just casual interest…countless things to look at, gotta see it in person!

This Toy Shoppe is an absolute MUST visit. Brenden was a fantastic host. During our conversation, I could hear and feel his passion for all things collectable! I could spend hours talking with Brenden and browsing his collection. I can't recommend this place more to anyone and everyone that should visit! I live in Chicago but this place will always be a stop when I come to town!!

This place was cool. But the guy there was very passive aggressive in complaining. "Why don't you just take pictures of stuff and then not buy anything." Was his exact quote.This was the main reason I didn't buy anything. Then after he acted super friendly and was trying to guilt trip us into buying things.They had a lot of cool things and it was a very unique toy store. A lot of 70's 80's and 90's natolgia items. Again store owners actions were not what I would call friendly. Maybe he was struggling with some personal stuff, but shouldn't take it out on possible customers.

If you ever find yourself wandering through the picturesque Main Street of Baraboo, Wisconsin, make sure to stop by the treasure trove that is Baraboo Toy Soldier. Tucked away in this small Wisconsin town, along with a few other antique and used book sellers, this independently owned toy store is a gem that captures the hearts of both young and old alike.Looking top-to-bottom and left-to-right in this place, immediately transports you back to your childhood. Action figures, figurines, playsets and comics galore!What sets Baraboo Toy Soldier apart from the average toy store is undoubtedly the owner. From the first greeting, it was evident that the their passion for toys, collectibles and other memorabilia fuels this destination boutique, as well as their dedication to their customers. No matter what toy we were looking for they either pointed out some options or knew exactly where to start looking. Striking up conversations about ventriloquism, Star Wars and Dr. Who built a rapport that makes this memorable place somewhere we will come back to again and again.Support local businesses like Baraboo Toy Soldier, and you'll re-discover the magic from your childhood!

Wonderful little shop full of so many different toys, figurines, comics, and vintage movie posters and art! Every inch of this store offers something fun and unique to check out. The owner gave my husband a fantastic deal on a stack of comic books! We take a trip up to Baraboo every summer, so this won't be the last time we drop in.

WE LOVED IT HERE! Had the most amazing time at the Baraboo Toy with Brendan show us all of his amazing collection and telling stories about his family (including Wesley). Brendan was so welcoming to me and my partner and had the most incredible conversations. We got two beautiful circus wagons and other incredible figurines. This stop absolutely was our favorite place we’ve found on our road trip across Wisconsin, thank you so much for your hospitality!!!!

My girlfriend and I had the very best time at Baraboo Toy Soldier Shoppe. The store is packed with amazing miniatures and toys, it’s so much to take in, but Brenden knows exactly where everything is and can tell you the history of everything . Definitely go here, it really is a magical place.

I stopped here to get my boyfriend something for his birthday and OMG. This place is insane (in the best way). Anyone that is truly looking for vintage, unique, toys or memorabilia…. This is the place. I spent over an hour talking with the owner (who was amazing btw) about everything in the store. He was very helpful and attentive and very knowledgeable. Take the time to speak with him about whatever is it you’re looking for. This is a great “hole in the wall” find in the Baraboo Area.

Went in to look around and was very uncomfortable, owner/staff member was having a super loud conversation with another customer about a TV show that had members of the lgbtqia+ community in it. Very negative and unwelcoming things were said. Plenty of other area stores that proudly identify as a lgbtqia+ safe spaces to shop at.
