Great service nice staff. Very wide and awesome selection of Funko pops, blind bags, and die cast. Items are placed at a reasonable price.

Tons of diecast cars
Michael Z.

This place has tons of diecast cars, model kits, funko pops and other hobby toys. The staff was friendly and prices were reasonable. Definitely worth checking out.

This store is located on the 2nd level near Macy's. It's not a huge store, but if you're a collector of Funko or pop culture stuff, check it out. They also have model cars, planes and drones that they sell and fix/ repair. The staff is friendly and the let you shop in peace, yet offer their help if you need it. Their Funko's are in good shape and organized by categories. Most are common Pops but he has a few exclusives. Even if you have a ton of Funko's it is still a good place to check out. They're a wee high in price ($12.99) but they are in good condition and it's also helping out a small business inside a high end mall.

Leg fell off quickly, cape did not fit at all. (Fake nendoroid beware)

WARNING: If I can put a 0 star I would. Funko pops might be real but DO NOT BUY anything japanese related (nendoroids/figures/etc) here. Or at least do your research. They sell alot of bootleg/knock offs i.e goodsmilecompany stuff. That could be passed off as real to the untrained eye who cant tell the difference. ALWAYS do your research if you are looking for official LEGIT figures. Perfect example is the Saitama nendoroid from them that was a COMPLETE bootleg that it was almost laughable. First thing I notice when I took it out of the box was the cape did not even fit correctly & the leg fell off real quick. (Not suppose to happen). Second thing I notice is the hole to attach the stand is a different shape than the actual stand attachment. It was laughable. Tape was also the only thing used to keep the body parts in place in the packaging. Overall, if youre looking for knockoffs, this is the place. But if you were hoping they would have reputable and official merchandise i would probably do alot of research and go somewhere else. They have a horrible return policy (which makes sense because they dont want people returning the bootleg merchandise)

This mall shop has a wide variety of RC Cars and replica cars. They even have a life-size Chucky doll for sale. The prices are very reasonable, and the store is very organized. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Frequent this store from time to time when I visit Santa Anita Mall with friends in the area. They tend to specialize with current pop culture memorabilia items. They have a variety of toy lines that a collector may want or need. Their funko pops are pretty organized and makes it easier to see which unique ones that they currently have on the shelves. Also, tons of pricier items for adult collectors like discontinued or sometimes difficult to find unique pieces. Probably not recommended for kids that want to take it out of the packaging and play with them, The staff is always friendly when I go there, plus they have the tedious task to make sure some guests don't have sticky fingers and walk out with non-purchased items. I see you lady with that massively huge non zipped purse, that huge fanboy/fangirl blocking the view of items from employees, pack of random wanderers with backpacks/carrying bags. I used to work retail, so I know.

Hypnotized Hobbies is located on the top floor of the Westfield mall next to Macy's by the promenade entrance . This place is a collectors dream. Action figurines galore, transformers , cartoon figurines, trading cards, model planes , trains, and automobiles. They even had Garbage Pale Kids. If you don't know what those are you were not an eighties kid , Google them they are funny. This store is marketed to big and little kids. I liked how they have classic and unique board games. These will be a perfect addition for family game night.

FunkoPop Pinhead...
Gerard I.

If you're a model hobbyist they have a decent amount of kits, paints, brushes, etc. I'm more of a FunkoPop collector and they have tons. I was just there a few days ago and scooped the Pinhead and Nosfertu POP figures and they're awesome. Check out the pictures I posted. They also have an insane amount of higher end collectibles in display cases. My favorite of those higher end collectibles is the die cast (I don't know the scale) of the Christine car from John Carpenter's "Christine" film. It's gorgeous but also costs about $200. Yikes. The staff there was pleasant and asked if we needed help or had questions. I'll most likely be back again to scoop up some POP figurines.

It definitely is not as cramped and claustrophobic as the MPK Sanrio and has a good variety of character goods and items. They have the big popular ones that we all love and are familiar with: HK, Kuromi, Cinnamaroll, Pompompurin, My Melody, etc. But they also have the classics like Badtz Maru, Tuxedo Sam, Pekkle, Pochaco, etc. and other characters like Cogimyun, Kirimi-chan, Pickles the Frog, Gudetama, etc. They also had the jirai-kei/Gothic lolita looking MeloKuro goods here and I know those have been super popular lately. It seems that the back of the shop was once the cashier but that 1/4 of the shop was being set up/inventory of items going on there so unsure what it's gonna look like after. They do have a lot of the newer items that I've seen from the Sanrio newsletter such as the Matcha series and the HK 50th anniversary goods. Solid Sanrio store.

BEWARE OF RESEALED BLIND BOXES! ALL SALES FINAL! No returns…read moreand exchanges. I ordered two Hello Kitty Fruity Paradise blind boxes for pick up. When we finally got home to unbox them, my toy was wrapped in BLUE GIFT WRAP and my daughter's toy was inside a sealed bag. The bottom of my blind box looked tampered compared to my daughter's box. The fun part of unboxing is opening the bags to reveal the toy. I am very disappointed in this store. They are deceitful. I will no longer will shop here.
