IF It wasn't bad enough paying the overly high prices for the items that they have it gets really…read morebad trying to sell them anything. I can definitely not recommend selling to this business as they low-ball you to the extreme. They use excuses about how long it may take to resell the items you have but this is true for most of the items that they have in stock. I mean, come on, it's a collectables store! After today's experience I don't see myself returning there to buy or sell. I used to look online for various items (like model kits, etc.) and once I found something I wanted I'd drive over to Collector's Marketplace to see if they had it in stock first. You know, trying to support local business. I spent literally thousands that way. I'm afraid those days are over.

I have an open claim against them. Monkey Depot is committing fraud and theft of my my funds, after receiving my unopened return.

Ok, let's pretend this wasn't the only place in Tucson to buy collectible vinyl toys, wonderful art…read morebooks, beautiful local art, and some really cool clothing (mainly tees)... Let's also pretend that the staff wasn't extremely friendly, extensively knowledgable on their product and obviously very into the collecting side themselves (I.E. They get excited when I say I want to open my blind box toys in the store to see what I got, and get excited when I get cool stuff, and that's cool to me). Shall we also pretend that it isn't really easy to find, oh, and pretend the store didn't have a really cool, industrial/urban art studio feel to it.... Ok, we all caught up in fantasy land? Well, that all aside, um... Let's see, the parking isn't that great. Seriously one of my favorite spots in Tucson, even if just to pop in for a second and say hi and see if they have any new swag. Keep up the great work lulubell's!!

There are "The Seven Wonders of the World" and then there are "The Seven Wonders of Tucson" and…read moreLulubell Toy Bodega my friends, is one of those seven wonders. Lulubell Toy Bodega is a bewitching, quaint shop seated on a tiny main road running parallel to downtown. It's closer to a more industrial area so unless you know it's there or you're observant while driving, you can easily pass it without knowing it exists. Here's some help: http://vimeo.com/11603704 They're known for their premium (and difficult to find) toys....And when I say premium, I mean prices ranging from practically nothing to the $200 and upward area. I'm not a collectible toy connoisseur but I don't think it's entirely unreasonable pricing considering the people who collect these toys are probably willing to drop that kind of cash. Personally, I'm a fan of their Blind Box toys, the Munny dolls and of course, the plush Domo dolls. Oh, but that's not all.... Lulubell Toy Bodega is a mecca for local artists. They frequently host shows where artists can display their art on their beautiful white walls. This not only enables artists to show their work to a public audience in a more professional manner but it also brings the community together. In other words, it gets those downtown kids out of the bars and into something more meaningful. The owners are so immersed in their customers that I don't actually know who they are; they blend in with everyone else at the shop! (I'll meet you someday Amy & Luke!) Lulubell Toy Bodega is, without a doubt, one of the best businesses in all of Tucson. It would be extreme to say a visit here is worthy of being on a bucket list, but then again, I'm an extreme type of girl. ;) Happy toy shopping!

I will always find the issue or trade that I'm looking for specifically at Ash Ave. Everyone that works there is super friendly and helpful. I came in one time seeking the Absolute Batman Annual weeks after it was already sold only to find out there was one issue left that they were selling for a higher price point. I believe the owner was the one who offered it to me as soon as I vocalized how badly I wanted it and he kindly gave me a discount! When I was an avid collector, I used to come weekly here because they have some of the best selection of comics in the Valley. And they're pretty personable too.

The shop touts itself as having rare, hard to find items. Most of the items I saw for sale were small to medium sized, like keychains, plush dolls, and bags/purses. They have a little bit of everything which I liked. Some examples include Rurouni Kenshin, Pokemon, Bleach, Sanrio, Death Note, Dragonball Z, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Sailor Moon, Evangelion and Genshin Impact. Prices were reasonable and I picked up a few items as gifts. Service at check out was friendly and the guy at the register mentioned that there's an all day pop up on Nov 18 with discounts and Sanrio themed macarons. Very tempting! Details: - In the Fujiya/Arai/Dunkin Donuts shopping plaza - Nov 18th 2023 12 PM-10 PM pop up features: - Cosplay contest 9 PM - Sanrio themed macarons - 10% off certain items - 7-10 PM car meet hosted by Garage 23 - Meet and greet for Devildom Cafe
