Downtown Toys & Comics, First Visit! At first, I thought some of the prices were a little high, but after checking out certain items online, I realized they're actually priced better than a lot of what you'll find on eBay, Mercari, and Depop. They have a little bit of everything--old and new, packaged and loose--so there's plenty to look through whether you're a serious hunting or just looking. The staff can take a minute to warm up, im not use to not being greeted, so i was taken aback at first, but once you've been in there a bit, they're helpful and willing to assist with whatever you're looking for. Overall, great selection, fair prices, and definitely worth checking out or buying here versus purchasing on Ebay with shipping and crazy wait times. read more

We stopped in Downtown Toys N Comics on a Friday morning just after 10. I was amazed upon walking in - this place is HUGE. Prepare to be overwhelmed by the amount of stuff you have to visually navigate. Their shelves are packed and walls are covered. I could have spent all day in here but we had to cut our time pretty short. So I'm looking forward to going back already! They buy and sell everything from older fandoms to the new stuff too. There's something for everyone here. read more

I was downtown looking for a business, and was completely sidetracked by this business instead. Who doesn't love a good (locally owned) toy and comic store? So obviously I had to stop and check it out. I don't know how long they've been in business, but I also don't know how I've been here so long without ever hearing about this place. This place is much more than a toy and comic store, it's more like a toy collector store / museum. It was really neat and nostalgic to walk through and see all of the toys and collector items from your childhood, they have everything! This is also a neat spot because you may find random items placed throughout the store and it might be just what you're looking for. They also have a small section of clothing. Cool spot and it'd be nice to drop in every now and then to see what new items they've added to their inventory. There are some high price items, but overall everything is priced reasonably well. The gentleman behind the counter was also very friendly. read more

Staff treat you like royalty wether I walk in with 5 bucks or 50 dollars always find cool things like toys books movies cds posters video games and my kids love it too read more

Downtown Toys N Comics - Family fun down town - Toy Stores Near Me - Bakersfield, California

So much fun in a small shop. We were not planning to visit but we stopped in while on our way elsewhere. It was like a thrift boutique with toys, stickers, and comic books-- much more up our alley than expected. So we set out to locate a few things: LPS, Strawberry Shortcake, Thomas the Tank Engine, and MLP. We found them all and bought a couple. The gentlemen assisting customers were so accommodating and gracious, as we requested cases to be unlocked. This place was jam packed with collectibles (too much Funko Pop) and definitely fit the bill for our treasure-hunting plans. As we were rung up, they suggested heading a few blocks away to an antique mall called Mill Creek, so we ended up over there, too. Thanks for the suggestion! read more

We love this place, the guys and CeCe, are the BEST! My son Hank (5yrs old) wishes he could go see Miss CeCe everyday to help look for marionette and ventriloquist puppets. Miss CeCe is so kind and helpful. She even saved a puppet that came and gifted it to my son! We love her!! Thank you, Miss CeCe and guys, you all are awesome! read more

My kids and I always have a good time here. I love the vintage toys from my time and my kids always find something to find. The people that work there are always kind and attentive. The prices all depend on the vendor selling items you like. read more

My brother and I love collecting toys of all sorts. He's more into funko pops and magic the gathering cards and I'm more into the cutesy stuff like popmart, smiski, and occasional hello kitty stuff. I was super excited to see Labubu and Smiski in the store but once I opened them I knew that they were not authenthic. I went back to the store and talked to one of the workers about them being fake and he was really nice about it and refunded the amount back. I felt so bad as it was a present my brother bought for me but I also didn't want him to waste money on overpriced fake labubu and smiski. So just be really careful when buying from here. The workers are nice but it would just be nicer if the stuff was also authenthic. read more

Over the past few months I've had to sell some things from my collection and the staff there are always friendly and accommodating to me whenever I bring in a few bags every so often of random toys or collectibles to sell. I usually get an amount close to what I am asking and I appreciate them being upfront with me as to how much a buyer is willing to pay for my items. I don't like selling items from my collection but going there makes it a little less painful because of how friendly they are to me. read more

NOT YOUR MAMMAS ANTIQUE STORE: Located in the heart of downtown antique store row in Bakersfield CA, this place closer identifies as a Comic and Collector's store than your traditional antique store with your grandmas items she didn't want. Ran similar to an antique store, it has hundreds of venders that sell anything from action figures, comic books, toys, to hot wheels and so much more. You'll find what you're looking for here every time you enter the store. And there are a few antiques as well so bring grandma anyway. Many of the items are retired from stores, never hit the stores shelves, or haven't been on selves for years and in many cases decades. Prices are fair and they are always willing to work with serious buyers. The staff are polite and very helpful and knowledgeable. They host the Downtown Toys-N-Comics Event the last Saturday of every month from 10am to 4pm. Dozens of venders bring there collections to the sidewalk including items not seen in the store and special pricing deals. If you love going to antique shops like my daughter and I do, make this a happy change of pace. You will not be disappointed. And remember to tell them "Doc" sent you. read more

They have pretty much everything in here. My son loves coming to look at all the Marvel figures and funkos. Some stuff here is ridiculously overpriced, but there are some great finds if you have time to look. The only thing I didn't like was being made to feel like I was shoplifting. We frequent the antique shops often and I've never had this happen. I came in when they first opened with my kids and husband. I had my three month old in a baby carrier and had my diaper bag on. The employee kept watching me from different areas of the store and it made me really uncomfortable. At one point my baby started screaming so I took her to the car so she wouldn't disturb anyone. One of the workers came out at the same time I was and watched me go to the car and get in. I totally get that downtown Bakersfield probably isn't the greatest when it comes to stealing and crime. It just made me feel uncomfortable that I felt like I was being watched and followed the entire time we were in the store. Really love it here though. I hope they stick around for a while. Bakersfield desperately needs more stores like this. read more

Friendly staff. Lots of good energy We traded in some comic books and received a fair value. We were pleased read more

Huge selection gotta be there a whole day to see everything and the 2 guys are very professional and nice prices are fair as well. Found my go to spot!!! read more

Pretty sweet store. Lots of toys and items that take you back to your childhood. With that said there is way to much product all over the place and kind of overwhelming. You have to watch your step because you could end up knocking items down and breaking them. Prices are high for items but if you want it of course you will pay for it. read more

Would be a cool shop if not for the two bearded dragons shown off in the front when walking in that don't look to be cared for properly. It was disheartening to see. The tanks they were in are barely a fraction of what is recommended, not to mention having absolutely no UVB lights which are necessary for them to receive proper amounts of vitamin D which is required for them to absorb calcium from their food. A quick google search, as well as the information on caring for them given to them by others, would help, but because they have had them for years like this it is "okay". read more

Great selection of older toys from the 90s and 2000s. Funko's and all that good stuff. It's also a huge store. looking forward to returning.

What a great collectors shop. Toys and Comics just like the signs says. So many shops are nothing like they claim. This shop lives up to the name and the sign says they close on Sunday at 4 but we found it at 4:10 he said come on in with a smile . Check them out. read more

My daughters and I came here yesterday and we all loved it! This store has almost everything for everybody.

We will be back for sure! read more
