Don’t sleep on this incredible spot on a mostly residential street. The impressive array and deep-cut collections of many retro and vintage wonders you’ll find inside are surpassed only by the kindness and positive energy exuded by owner Jorge - who operates the location with his family. Can’t wait to visit the Pearland location, too!
Thought this was a retro place at first but it's selling weird Hello Kitty things in the hallway at the Flea Market. Seems like a firehazard to me but okay. My daughter wanted a couple of things and she ended up buying some things on her own. Tell me why this doll has paint chipping off and smells toxic? The smells was way too much to bare. I ended up throwing it away. I don't know why a retro memorabilia place is selling toxic knockoffs that reek of oil. Someone could get sick! Don't recommend
Outstanding! Really friendly, chatted and swapped stories for ages. Really interesting stuff to look at from every toy line you can imagine and a few you have never heard of....

If you are looking for obscure and rare vintage toys this is your spot. It's a little off the beaten path but as soon as you see the art on the front of the building you know you're at the right spot. Inside, floor to ceiling, is a nostalgia trip from TMNT, HE-MAN, Biker Mice from Mars, Ghostbusters, VHS, SNES, all kinds of treasure! sidenote: we had the privilege of hanging out with the owner at the end of the day and he showed us around the shop. He has an amazing curated collection and an extraordinary story. He's a humble dude with a heart filled passion for sharing memories. I look forward to the next visit!
