Tosche Station Echo Base is located in the Sully Station Shopping Center and is a very impressive…read moreshop. They are stocked from floor to ceiling with retro toys and comic books. G.I. Joe, Transformers, and Masters of the Universe/She-Ra toys were among the many offerings this shop has. They also had loose toys in clamshells. Comic book new pull selection was good with many longboxes being priced at three dollars. They had no dollar boxes. Graphic novel selection was good and they have Manga offerings. Several retro arcade cabinets are located in the back room and they were busy during our visit. Prices were more on point then other shops like this in the area, with my friend getting two She-Ra toys that were in EXCELLENT condition for a great price. Tosche Station Echo Base is a must stop when in the area for the selection and the staff were also excellent to chat with.

There are neat displays, and they go all out with some even being motorized (like the helicopter), so you can have a lot of fun with these if you have the space and dedication! Bro and neighbor like building and doing diy projects, so this store is a favorite. There are also in-store events and competitions to get folks to show off their skills and meet like-minded people! Prices are good too for the selection! Next door is Dulles expo center and many restaurants so it can get busy at times but there's a huge parking lot so parking isn't an issue.

We love Brickmania. Big thank you to Chris, Shawn and the team for being so awesome on our visits…read more Brickmania develops and sells custom brick kits using only brand new Lego products. Custom Lego everything. Love the custom minifigs and sets. Not only do they have Brickmania kits but other building and gaming products as well. These are not your kids' Legos. They are an after-market developer of kits. Custom minifigs are over $20 each. Sets go from $100s to $1000s. These are works of art. These kits sell out frequently. The only draw back is that they will not ship from store stock so you have to go in person. 2 hour drive for us.

The Fantastic Store is everything you'd want as a one stop shop for everything trading card…read morerelated. This store is big and it might be a bit intimidating but everyone that is staff here has been extremely friendly. The emphasis on community is strong here where I was welcomed and I was asked if they could help me look for any specific product. Like any card store, the prices depend on what you are willing to pay for said item. I do think their prices are fair and while it's not MSRP, it beats having to deal with the frustration of not being able to obtain product from a brick & mortar. But take this with a grain of salt; you are shopping from one place that has it all and you don't have to wait in line waiting to be informed that the stock is out. Overall, I think the only downside is the parking; it's limited and it's inconvenient to have to park at another store's front to walk to the store you want to go to but it is what it is. Check this place out if you like Cards!

Generally I don't review card shops but I've been to the shop many times and it's a great way to…read morefind players alike if you play a certain card game. It is a bit small but it's generally packed with players playing a card game on certain weekdays. The staff has been helpful and they are knowledgeable on the products you are looking for. Luckily for my visit they knew what card I was looking when I asked them about it and they pulled it out from the display case. Prices are okay, some can be a bit above market but I understand that it's to help cover the store's cost and it's based on what the product is selling for. Overall I think the place is fun to visit, come check it out if you play any collectible card game!

When I asked him to comp a card, he went off eBay listings and did not use Card Ladder, which is very amateur in the card market. He didn't even consider a deal on a card marked up 75%. To me this store is looking for anyone walking in off the street without a clue!

Their patience and encouragement made a huge difference for us as complete beginners. They clearly love the hobby, and it shows not just in how they teach but in the warm, welcoming community they've fostered around the store--it truly feels like an extended family. Thanks to their guidance, we've been able to paint miniatures far better than we ever thought possible. Whether you're brand new or just curious about Warhammer, I highly recommend stopping by, talking with them, or even scheduling a lesson. They'll help you build, paint, and play with confidence--and have a great time doing it.

Mehdi was super patient and personable while I picked out cards and I felt welcomed the whole time. When I got home that evening, I noticed one of the cards had a minor defect and the store was more than happy to hear me out and make sure I was satisfied and taken care of. When I stopped back in Eric and Mehdi were amazing in helping me and making sure I left satisfied. Other than the awesome customer service, they have a huge selection of singles from various card games like One Piece, Magic, Pokemon and so on as well as tons of sealed product as well and the prices are very fair. Highly recommend stopping in and supporting this store if you live in the area.

When we walked in, I was initially struck by how friendly the workers were. There were several children in the shop and they were so enthusiastic, kind, and helpful to the questions, comments, and stories the children were sharing. My husband had a great time browsing the comic book aisles while my toddler enjoyed picking out a little book fos us to read at home (over, and over, and over again!). My elementary school aged kid loved all the little toys and we couldn't resist purchasing a cute banana cat trinket to hang on her backpack. Aside from being family friendly, Gaming Giant are huge supporters of the Pokemon Club that is held at my child's school. They donate tons of toys, collectibles, and cards that are raffled off at every meeting. I love a business that stands behind community. Instead of purchasing Pokemon cards at Target, I'll be grabbing at this locally-run store instead!
