This is my first-ever Yelp review, even though I use the app all the time to look up places and recommendations! I just had to share my experience because I've visited a lot of TCG shops and conventions, and this one is by far my favorite. The owners and staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. They carry a wide variety of collectibles: TCGs, Funkos, Labubus, and more, so there's always plenty to browse. I'm primarily there for Pokémon cards, and after shopping here for over a year, I can say their prices are always fair. They're also very reasonable with trade-ins, offering great prices for both Japanese and English cards. I highly recommend checking this place out. read more

It's been about a year since I started coming to BoomLoot and they only get better! First Pokemon card I ever purchased was from here and it was the Pikachu Van Gogh ($750). Keith looked at me like, dude!? You sure you want this to be your first purchase, haha. He also said it should be going up in value and DAMN, he was right! I think it's around $1,500 right now...my point to that was today, 11/11/25, Keith remembered he sold me that card and mentioned it while I was walking out. The guys that work here care about this community and care about the work they do. They're awesome and my son and daughter love coming in here to check out the new items they have. HELPFUL HINT...their storefront is in the BACK. If you go to the "normal front" you'll have to walk around to the backside. There's lots of parking back there and the big roller door is open, you can't miss it. Support local businesses like this...they're few and far between. read more

Really awesome place for cards. Owners? Workers? Not even sure. But those guys in the store are SUPER nice and knowledgeable. Prices are honest and fair. And they have an instagram account that shows what drops are coming or what they have in stock. You can also sell your own cards to them - they told me to bring my collection in if I wanted some options/opinions. They have single pokemon cards for as low as 10 cents - it really doesn't get better than that. read more

Went again and met the owner Keith! Such a nice guy! Great shop, fair prices and decent variety of Pokémon and other stuff to buy or sell/trade . read more

This place has some of the best prices, service and selection out there. I love coming here during my lunch break and picking up some packs to rip. This place is the best in OC hands down and I have visited most if not all card shops in OC. Thanks for the experience and service guys. I will continue to come here ! This place has all the hits, I pulled a gold buggy from the box I bought here haha read more

Love this place. I'm a big Pokemon collector and they always have great prices on their Illustration + Special Art rares. Ideal place to take a young fan to check out the big ticket stuff as well as their wide variety of bulk Pokemon cards to help kickstart their collection. They hold weekly tournaments as well (Saturdays 3pm) so you can build a deck here as well lern to play! The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, you'll find the owners behind the counter here pretty often, so you know you're supporting not only a local business but someones lifetime hobby. 100/10 shop read more

Highly recommend this place! I'm not sure if we were dealing with the owner or just one of the workers but everyone there was super sweet. The store is very well organized, and the prices are very competitive in comparison to other stores. Come check them out!!! I got my labubu ive been wanting for a great price. read more

BoomLoot - Toy Stores Near Me - Irvine, California

I found BoomLoot after needing to make more space for my newborn and wanting to sell my collection of Funko Pops. Fast forward two years and, through the explosion of Pokémon card collecting, I've been back periodically and they always remember who I am. They're always very open and interested in who I am, and they're good people in general. It was tough to hear they were robbed around Thanksgiving. I hope that they can recover quickly. read more

Boomloot is an amazing place to get your collectable needs I enjoy all thw interaction in this store. Highly recommend to any look for Pops! Trading cards and other collectibles read more

The people there were really friendly! The prices were phenomenal and there selection! Overall it is a amazing place

If you are a collector of Funko Pops or Pokémon cards this is the place you want to come. If you have a collection you want to sell, this is the place you should come. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great bang for your buck. read more

This is by far my most favorite shop to buy cards at. Honest people... honest prices.. great drops and the service here is hands down the best. Keith, Aiden, and Francis are super knowledgeable about cards from one piece to Pokémon. They have a lot of Japanese one piece boosters too! They restock very often too, and things move fast so you have to hurry otherwise you'll miss out on a zapdos like I did lol. read more

Friendly staff members. Fairly priced and authentic merchandise. Wide and diverse selection. A lot of great items to view and purchase. Highly recommend! read more

Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Great customer service and great selections. One of my favorite collectables store to visit

KEITH!! He's such a great guy. Super sweet and communicative with us. There's such a HUGE selection of funko pop but we come to him for pokemon cards. Their store has mostly graded slabs but as of recently increased in singles, packs, ETBs and booster bundles. The community is nice and very patient. There's usually 1-2 guys working the shop and we noticed a lot of the customers wait for their turn without interrupting or butting in the customer before them. That shows a lot about the atmosphere of the store! We come pretty often when we can since it's a bit further for us but definitely a regular store for us. read more

Reasonable prices on TCG (pokemon, Lorcana, and dragon ball), funko, and other collectibles. I mainly come here for pokemon so I can't speak for other items, but they have binders of alt arts, full arts, vintage and max's. They have graded slabs and boxs. Bundling can get you a reasonable discount if you pay in cash. One great thing about BoomLoot is that they offer a rewards program. Everytime you get a product worth $10+ you earn a point, once you reach 10 points you get a free funko! (I think at least, please correct me if I'm wrong). It's never that busy here and they are always willing to help. If youre looking for a card shop in Irvine, check it out! You won't be disappointed, there's something for everyone :) read more

Delivers every time. Always has a sweet selection of cards and older product that could be hard to find as well as new releases. Definitely recommend checking it out. read more

Great place, reasonable prices and a variety of items. Went in just to check the place out. Came out with a bag of goods. Great service.

My feedback is on their "pre order" system. It is really lacking ... something. I preordered my Freddie Mercury pop back in November 2018. I followed up periodically via their facebook messenger, and was told "its any day now". Today is May 2019 and I noticed the Freddie pop is "sold out" on their web site. I called and the guy who answered looked up my order, then said "oh maybe yours is one of the damaged ones" and then said "i think we have enough good ones for you to pick up". First, I have been waiting since November for an email or some sort of notification it's ready. The guy said "we posted it on social media". WTH? I'm sure if I spent every waking day on social media, I would have seen it.. but I don't. That's what email or even a call/text is for. So now, I am going to get my pop (6 months later) and "hope" its not one of the damaged ones the guy was talking about. He didn't seem very confident my Pop "is" even in... so here goes nothing if I drive over, and find it is MIA. Aside from their crappy pre order system, they have a good store, and great selection of Pops.. they just need to figure out how to communicate to the customer that the merch is in!! read more

This place is awesome! Picked up the grail I have been looking for. 10/10 recommend in OC!

Amazing store!!! Keith will go above and beyond to help you get the pops you're looking for. I cannot recommend this place enough read more

This place is awesome for Pop! collectors. I was a little bummed that they didn't have some Bioshock Pops that I have been looking for, but they have a HUGE selection, including a lot of hard-to-find pieces. I managed to snag an Olivia Moore Pop and checked in for the free acid-free plastic cover, which fits perfectly! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/boomloot-irvine?select=KWwq09z05seBhnX7z18ybA&userid=97Dj5h5CQUsWZrEWj3wWOg Reasonably priced (similar to what you would see at Cons), and service is very knowledgeable and friendly. They even have some swaps on Saturdays where you can bring your Pops and trade/sell with other collectors! read more

Great customer service! I needed a last minute Christmas gift and found the funko pop I needed on their website. Was able to place hold until I could pick it up. read more

Pretty cheap and has most of the stuff I want. I bought pokémon cards here but if I'm also into Funko. If I needed a Funko, this would be the first place I looked. read more

This place is awesome. Took my son here the other day and will absolutely be coming back! Amazing selection and great prices.

Very friendly! Only second time visiting and owner recognized me. Easy to talk to and answers any questions. Definitely a gem of a store. Recommend to all Funko friends/collectors read more

Such a huge selection of pops to choose from! They have displays of their pop selection in the front room, and you tell them which pops you want and they'll get one from their storeroom in the back for you! Love that they post their new pops daily on their Instagram, so be sure to frequent their insta! And check their online site too! Favorite part about it is their stamp card, where you make a purchase of $10 or more and you get a stamp (at least I think that's how it works). If you get 10 stamps total, you get a free common (nice!) Or 20% off your next purchase. That's the best! Definitely coming in to get more pops in the future! read more

BoomLoot - Toy Stores Near Me - Irvine, California

It's a Funko Pop candy store when you walk in and your mood instantly lifts when you see the WALLS of toys tempting you to buy them. Keith was super helpful and was able to find the ones I wanted. He also gave me plenty of time to browse and message my friends to see what they wanted. Pops are also very affordable at generally $10 each with special ones that have their own post-it price tags. I was able to see some I've NEVER seen before here and that's pretty cool. Follow their Instagram to see the latest Pops! He'll also hold a specific one for you if you ask him to. Excellent customer service and store! read more

BoomLoot - Toy Stores Near Me - Irvine, California

I love this place! BoomLoot has an amazing variety of Funko Pops!. New to old pops and other great toys! They have exclusive pops each month if you want to get your hands on those babies! Their service is awesome and they don't mind you taking several hours in their store. I got to meet one of the owners, Keith and he was super knowledgeable and friendly. He gave me some history of Funko Pops! and taught me about other toys that are trending and popular. Not to mention, he will help you pick out the best box possible to make sure there are no defects. If you are interested in protecting your boxes I would suggest getting the acid-free plastic covers as well. Also, make sure to check out their instagram (@boomloot.toys) to see their monthly events! Overall, prices are reasonable and I recommend BoomLoot to all Funko Pop! lovers! This is a must place to check out! AS ALWAYS, FUNKO POP! & NOM FOR LIFE! read more

Love this store! I was so excited to find a retailer in Orange County that sold pop funkos. He has by far the largest selection I've seen in a retail location basically ever. I was really impressed with the display and how courteous and thoughtful the owner was. We were greeted immediately, he was super friendly, and he had things in stock I had never even seen before. So when it comes to pop hunting there are a few things I think are important. Packaging- the owner really cares about the condition of the boxes and holds the damages boxes back. Everything we purchased was *mint* The price- ok, standard retail pricing for all regular pops, cheaper than hot topic or game stop for commons. Exclusives- he had some pretty expensive grails, HOWEVER, they were in the same Ballpark as stashpedia, or what you might find on mercari. The guy really understands how to price his pops- and you can tell he's thoughtful about it, and you don't have to take the risk of buying something over the internet from an individual. Discount! If you buy 10 pops you get one freee!!! He uses 5stars to keep track of purchases, so that's awesome! Go here for sure. Have fun! This place is amazing! read more

This place is crap for merch, what a joke. Save yourself some trouble and file bankruptcy already. They offer fun pop that is it. There you go that is as positive as I can get for this place. Also it's s closet. read more

I am a POPFunk collector but not your average, sane kind of collector --- I am the crazy kind who searches for very rare POPFunk collectibles, at a fair price, but in the most pristine, crisp of POPFunk original boxes. So when I found BoomLoot tucked away in a grey, plain plaza, I thought I'd wandered into a POPFunk haven. And I was right. BoomLoot has walls covered in nearly every POPFunk release, sorted by limited edition, latest releases, convention exclusives, and your most rare Funk figurines. They have an assortment of mystery vinyl boxes, and select figurines of other sorts (such as a sick Lich King from World of Warcraft model on display). I came to find the newest R2D2 that has always been sold out at the other mall stores that carry POPFunk, but at BoomLoot they are plenty in stock. I wound up leaving with a few other finds that I'd been searching for but had put on the back-burner. Careful with your wallet-- you're sure to be enticed by the huge selection. I also ended up buying Wonder Women in her Invisible Jet (pictured) just standing on line to buy my other POPFunk vinyls. All the boxes are very clean and crisp -- no dents. As a perfectionist, I love that. Perfect POPFunks! If you check-in, you'll receive a free acid-free cover for your precious POPFunk -- what a bargain. The shopkeeper is very friendly and clearly is also a POPFunk enthusiast himself. We chatted about the collectibles for a bit. I will surely return (wallet permitting) to fill my collection using BoomLoot as my source. They sometimes do trades if you have a rare to trade-in, so I am looking forward to swapping my Mur'Ghoul exclusive for Chun-Li! Yay! (Did I say POPFunk enough times? POPFunk!) read more

First time visiting this store... Amazing selection, VERY friendly employee i believe his name was Keith!

Funko Pop monthly swap meet was way above expectations. At least 15 vendors with ez-ups and tables set up with lots to purchase at good prices and willing to deal. Overall atmosphere was fun and friendly, and it was a family friendly environment. Food vendor too. read more

I randomly stumbled upon this store. Thank goodness I did. When you go in, it's like you died and went to Funko heaven! Their stuff is organized and sorted by categories unlike stores. Staff is super helpful and friendly. They have super rare stuff and their prices are very reasonable. Most even cheaper than Amazon. Best part of all is that they have stuff for sale before it's even released on Amazon. I didn't have to wait for Amazon pre-order. Awesome! read more

Great selection of Funko Pops! The staff was very friendly and communicative. The common Pops are displayed very well and you don't have to go searching like you do at regular stores. I enjoyed my visit and will be visiting more regularly. read more
