They have separate rooms with horses, doll houses, and puzzles. I like this place because most everything they sell is interactive in a sense that you have to use your mind and imagination. Again, a great place to find something for children of all ages from chemistry kits to toy cars, and airplanes.

I find myself scouring the Bay Area for toy stores so that my littles can have a similar feeling and experience. Finding The Wooden Horse has been such a treat. They have every toy you can think of and they provide a great balance between educational, trending, and the classics! Stop by next time you need to pick up a gift or have some time to explore! The staff is friendly and there is always a spot open in the parking lot!

My buddy and I were in the area and were looking for some diecast places to visit, came across this…read moreplace on Yelp and decided to check it out. The shop the tucked away in the back of a plaza, not easy to spot. The shop itself is pretty small, not much of an options and most of the HotWheels are overpriced. Regular HotWheels are $5 each, HotWheels premium/ boulevards are $20plus. They got some jadatoys 1:24, limited options for miniGT, but of course they are overpriced!! But most of the overpriced die casts are nothing special, you could probably find them in your local Target, Walmart, DollarTree or even Amazon for way less. The dude who works behind the counter ignored us the entire time, even when we greeted him. Definitely not worth the visit, will not return.

Besides books, they offer toys, games, and fun gift items, as well as author's readings and other literary events. I was there recently searching for something good to read in the adult section. The adult books include fiction, biography, cookbooks, sci-fi and fantasy, and more. I found several books that looked interesting and settled on a new one by Lily King called Heart the Lover. I don't know anything about it, but enjoyed her last book. I also bought myself a cute canvas shopping bag with cats and a book club theme. I keep thinking about a couple of the books I left behind. I'm pretty sure I'll be back soon to pick them up.

It is a shame that this is the only Bandai store in the area because the employees are extremely…read morerude and dismissive. I've went here multiple times and each time one or more of the employees have been rude towards me and have made snarky remarks. If your life sucks figure it out instead of taking it out on customers. I've said this before and I'll say it again, don't work customer service if you cannot be nice towards others! Other than that, the store has a good selection of merchandise. Such a shame the experience is ruined by rude people.

Short review since we only come here for the gashapon machines…read more I really like coming here. Get some anime gashapon, but it's hard to get some of the ones you like since they're out of stock. I really wish they would stock up more on the popular items. Things are getting a little pricey. $15 for five tokens, and most gashapon are two or three tokens. A lot of the gashapon are anime, sanrio, animals, even food. The last time we were there, they even had little Nikes! The only downside is that it gets pretty warm in there. Especially when the place is packed, it gets really hot. Hopefully they'll think about adding air conditioning or at least fans soon.

They tend to focus on the most popular anime obviously (think One Piece, Demon Slayer, My Hero Academia, etc.). I haven't bought anything recently because I'm particular about the blind boxes that I buy and I haven't seen anything I really liked yet, but I will always stop by the store and get my anime fix. They also have some shirts in the back as well.
