I stopped here on a whim and was pleasantly surprised to see they had beanie babies here! It took…read moreme back to when I was a kid choosing a beanie baby at a small toy store like this one. The owner (I assume) was so kind and a US Navy Veteran. They have a large selection of lego sets and things for kids, but I'm a plushie gal and I hope to see more beanie babies in stock. :)

We splurged and got bath toys, dolls and some vintage looking toys I hadn't seen anywhere else. Great to come to a toy store in person rather than shopping online.

Must watch my video. It's is completely unacceptable to support this business. I made a trip to…read morethis place with my 4yo week of Christmas and he was so very excited. He patiently waited for 15 min and when we got to the cashier to pay out of excitement my son tossed the very small stuffed porcupine on the counter (with a super big smile and excited) and the lady grabbed the toy and threw it across the store screaming "DO NOT THROW SHIT AT ME". We all froze. Completely in shock to her reaction. I had never experienced such behavior my son was on the verge of tears so I very politely said actually we're ok and started walking out. She continued screaming "alright adios, don't come back" and very loudly telling everyone at the store "I don't like people throwing shit at me". All while kids are listening. It's been 2 weeks and my son still asks "why was that lady so angry at me". I made this post and she somehow deleted it. I will forever remember this encounter. There's no reason why anyone should support this business.

Hello Kitty is back! The Oaks had a Sanrio store for a long time but it closed years ago...but…read moreHello Kitty has returned to the mall. The entrance is bubblegum pink and inside you'll find mostly Sanrio products (Hello Kitty and friends) but also Harajuku Lovers, Angry Little Girls, Domo, Rilakkuma, Paul Frank, and more. The plush food toys (e.g., sushi, Pocky sticks, cinnamon roll) caught my eye. I'd call this a deluxe Sanrio store because it has the higher end products, like hard shell Hello Kitty suitcases, iPhone covers, and fancier jewelry. But they also have Sanrio pens, candy, rubber stamps, notepads and stickers. The shop isn't large but it's crammed with cuteness.

They consistently offer products at MSRP, which already sets them apart, but they go further by being generous at events and providing better prize support than most other shops. The space itself has a great aesthetic, and the players there reflect the same positive energy. Everyone I've interacted with has been welcoming and kind. A special thank you to Nick as well. Every the I've visited, he's always been chill, flexible, and incredibly welcoming, and his honest personality really adds to what makes the shop feel so genuine. It's not the closest shop to me, but it's one I'm always happy to make the trip for.

If you've ever thought about getting into Warhammer but felt nervous walking into a hobby shop --…read moreTHIS is the place to start. For years I wanted to dive into tabletop Warhammer, but I didn't have friends who played and I'm naturally a little shy in situations like that. It honestly took me a long time to finally walk through the door at the Thousand Oaks Games Workshop... and I'm so glad I did. The owner, Jordan, is truly one of the kindest and most welcoming people you'll meet. He clearly loves the hobby and genuinely cares about making sure everyone has a great experience, whether you're brand new or a longtime player. The store itself is fantastic. They have dedicated demo stations where you can: * learn how to play the game * learn how to paint your first miniatures That alone makes getting started way less intimidating. The selection is excellent too, including a full range of Citadel paints. And if there's ever something they don't have in stock, there's an in-store ordering station where you can get exactly what you need directly from Games Workshop. They also have two large terrain tables set up for hobby meetups and games, and there's clearly a strong community forming around the shop. Honestly, this place is special. If you're on the fence about starting Warhammer like I was, just stop in and say hello. Jordan and the team will have you hooked in no time. Highly recommend!

Nearly 20 years later...and spacemarine 2...Im back. To see an official Games Workshop close to where I live i had to come in. Boy does it bring me back. So about the store...the biggest and most important thing about GWS is the person who is there for you. Does he like what he does, is he passionate and the skills and knowledge behind that person. In comes Jordan. He is knowledgeable...he loves what he does. That man and his pure enthusiasm alone makes this shop. Everything else makes this place more than great. He helped me with picking the right paints and proceeded to help me an experienced painter with my technique. I can attest to going in and supporting him and this store. He is a rare breed of GWS staff everyone should at least come and visit the place and him.

We visited this store the other day to look around for something new. One thing I've noticed about the store is that their inventory turns over fairly quickly and in some cases once it's gone (from the store) it never comes back. It's a specialty store...some of the items they sell can't be located anywhere else (except a sister store in some other city) so you can imagine that prices (for these items ) are all over the place.

The old man who, along with his wife who recently passed away, have owned the store for 45 years. I could have talked to him all day. He is such an interesting and travel, older man! If you're in downtown Ojai and you have any kids you can buy a toy for you must go to serendipity ! most of the toys are reasonably priced, but very high quality made. These are not toys that children play with for a day and throw away, they are sturdy and keeper toys, I wouldn't be surprised if your children would hand them down to a sibling or a friend when they out grow them!

Best Buy was out of stock so I went here thinking I would end up maybe paying 30, but I didn't have time to check walmart and this place was close by where I was going. The blaster of basic 2023-24 was FIFTY BUCKS HERE! I paid up because I didn't want to leave empty handed, but just to give you an example, the same box I picked up later that week at Walmart for my kids and it was 25 -- point is that this was not even an in demand or rare product but I got scalped paying double here... WHY?!? I don't get how places stay in business charging this much, maybe there is some volume discount I'm not aware of? Anyway they had a good selection and are nice people working there so I'll give em 3 stars for that, but as far as the prices, NEVER AGAIN!
