Actiontoyman is a special kind of place. I spent two months working one day a week in Erie and was…read morelucky enough to discover this store during that time. This store is absolutely stacked with vintage collectibles ranging from Gundam Wing, Star Wars, Transformers, Toy Story, WWE, Dragonball Z, Sports Collectibles, Batman, Superman, and everything in between. The ground level is full of classic toys and even features a full blown comic room in the back while downstairs is the "discount" section offering a ton of toys below $8. Upstairs had a full game room along with a ton of other collectible toys as well. Not only was it a blast coming to ActionToyMan but the staff was super friendly and willing to answer any questions that I had throughout my visit. Although my trips to Erie might be done, I will 100% be returning in the future to check this store out again. If you live even remotely close to Erie you owe it to yourself to come and check this place out, but hey, don't take my work for it, check out Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkin's visiting this store on YouTube.

My husband had 8 collectables at Action Toyman that hadn't sold in a long time. He decided to go…read morepick them up because they hadn't sold thus far and probably weren't in this pandemic economy. He called 3 weeks in a row to ask the owner to gather his unsold things. The first week the owner "wasn't there", the second week "he was out sick", and the third week my husband said he was coming to get his collectibles. Today he went to the store, the owner accused him of harassment, said my husband called his store "$hitty"(he did not), and then told him that he had already sold and paid my husband for his missing collectibles (he couldn't produce any proof that he had paid my husband for anything) Do not take your collectables here to sell. The guy is a liar. And I read through the other reviews and alot of people think he's rude too.

Earrings, pendants, and bracelets galore - in all colors and sizes. Along the back wall are the more ornate pieces. Reds, multicolor, greens, and blue larger pieces are in display cases. I met the owner/designer who works onsite. She will also create custom pieces ... Obvious attention to detail. Everything was placed in pale blue boxes with a silver bow - no gift wrapping required. If I am not back in Erie soon .... I may have her ship a piece that is "bothering me" (wink wink) or ask Santa for it.

They offer a wide selections of books, both well-loved (2nd-hand) and new, from Mystery, Romance, History, to Children's books. It is such a relaxing and peaceful experience to browse around the store, looking for a treasure to be found (You can also join their book club). If you are looking for a gift or souvenir, there are also small gifts such as stationary items or treats from local places like Lake Erie Candy Co. All the way in the back is a coffee shop that sources coffee from North Edge Craft Coffee (Erie's own roasting company), and a bakery, offering foods such as bagels and cupcakes. So far, I have only tried Chai tea latte and Dirty chai, but will definitely try other items in the future. My favourite part here, other than delicious drinks and books, are that they offer to buy back the book that you recently purchased, and will give you store credit to be used for your next purchase, or you can also bring in any books you currently own, and sell it to them for store credit. Grab a drinks, your favourite book and get lost in another world!
