Small shop but packed full of any comic you could ever think of and action figures and funk pops…read moreand other geeky items. When I went I bought sinister 7 spiderman comic for 7.99 and I was also given a free comic book and a comic book full of reviews of other comics. Great prices and a massive selection of comics to choose from. I will definitely go again I follow them on twitter and Facebook

I love this shop, being a self proclaimed geek and big kid. Although it's not very big there is a…read morelot of goodies packed into the store. There is all manner of comics and graphic novels on sale ranging from all your favourite super heroes from Marvel and DC to Manga titles to the more adult titles by Alan Moore and Frank Miller. I especially love the range of action figures that they stock which are hard to get hold of locally. My Mcfarlane figure of The Crow has got pride of place in my Cinema room. Part of the store upstairs is ofter closed off to the public which can be frustrating as I don't go into Swansea that often. Shame the store was'nt bigger so they could pack more stuff in.

Amazing place tucked away where you wouldn't really expect to find a Graphic Novel-based shop that…read morelooks like it's just landed from a trendy street in the West End of London. (And I mean that as a compliment!) European comics, books for grown-up readers, art books, comfy chairs... Good on you, Gnash folks!

I'm writing this review begrudgingly, as I want all of the albums at this brand new shop for…read moremyself. Hot Wax Records has yet to launch officially, so please excuse the austere interior and lack of stock in place (there's not even a sign up, but owner Dave is still trading). Offering a wide selection of 12-inch albums, DVDs, modern collectibles, posters and comics, Hot Wax is one of Cardiff's newest "music and more" shops and soon to become my favourite place to spend money. I stumbled upon this jewel in the alluvial deposit that is Cowbridge Road East just the other day. Oh, but the vinyl, the glorious vinyl, many of which comprise my "dream collection" and most are all priced less than a fiver. If I didn't have somewhere to be, I would have happily spent the entire afternoon here, digging for musical treasure. Please note the store is closed from 1-2 for lunch, and as of last week the card machine system is not in place so only cash is accepted. Won't deter me, though!

Staff were really friendly, it's a nice little shop and have a great variety off stock.read more

Geek alert whoop whoop. As an avid film fanboy, gamer, Graphic novel reader and figure collector,…read moreForbidden Planet is what we like to call 'home' in the loop. It specialises in comics, Graphic novels, film/tv/comic memorabilia and dvds. There's a lot of products crammed in to the small narrow shop and is hard to browse if your not sure what your looking for. However there is a lot of things in here your just not going to find elsewhere in Cardiff. Rare collectors items, figures etc are some of the things your not gong to find in your local Toys R Us etc. They will also get things in for you or help you find certain items if you cannot see them in store. The staff are always enthusiastic and ready to help in that sense.

Lots to choose from, great variety of all different kinds of books, magazines and collectibles…read more Very overpriced though.

I've found some great books here and is my go-to second hand book shop. It's worth noting that they…read morealso sell comic books, and lots of them! The reason I havn't given 5 stars is that their email doesn't work and they havn't gotten back to me about some books I wanted to sell them.
