It's been long overdue to leave a review for Tom's Model. Let me start off by saying Tom is one of…read morethe coolest and sweetest guys he's always soo chill and nice. My bf and I loose track of time talking to him in here. Coming into the store is a little overwhelming at first because there is literally pops everywhere you turn, but you are sure to find a pop or two. Coming here can be a little nerve wrecking at first because it's not it the best area a little sketchy but it's worth it... Overall we keep finding ourselves coming back because of Tom himself he's good people. (Ps. You have to call the number for them to open the front door)

My, oh, my. This place is awesome! For POP collectors you want to visit this place. Items are…read moreeither $5.99 for the common POPS and some also vary on the rarity of it. They do consignment as well which are located on the cases in the front of the store. BIG, HUGE caution is the location of the place. Be careful when going there. I went with a friend during the day time and I was still weary.

Some buildings just call your name... and this was one of them! I spotted Artist & Craftsman Supply…read morewhile driving through Downtown LA and immediately pulled over. I'm so glad I did.From the moment I walked in, I felt inspired. Every aisle has its own creative art installation, making the store feel like an art gallery as much as a supply shop. Everywhere you look, there's something imaginative that pulls you in and reminds you why creativity matters.I absolutely love creative people. They make our world more beautiful in every possible way, and this store celebrates that spirit. Whether you're a professional artist, a hobbyist, or someone looking to try something new, you'll find endless inspiration here. Every shelf is packed with possibilities just waiting to become someone's next masterpiece.Support the arts. Buy the supplies. Create something beautiful. Trust me--this is one of those places that's worth wandering through, even if you didn't know you needed it. five stars

One of the few shops here that you can find some "recently released but hard to find nendoroid"!!…read moreBeen looking for a few of them and tried all around town and have no luck. (Tried all hobby shops in little Tokyo and other area. No luck). Really surprised to see both of them there at a reasonable price!!! They definitely didn't jack up the price. It's pricer now because they imported it with the new tariff. At least the nendoroid price look reasonable. They got a lot of prize figures from the latest series. Not a big fans of those but they got some brand new release again. Overall a nice shop for people looking for nendoroids.

This store is one of few anime/game/cute stuff stores with official merchandise in the Little Tokyo…read morearea outside of Weller Court and the Little Tokyo Mall(Little Akihabara part). No food or drinks inside, they have a little area to put your drinks and food on by the entrance. The staff seem friendly and ready to help every time I go here. The store always looks pretty clean inside too. The selection is great and I've even seen some niche series I never thought I'd see. Come check it out if you don't like knockoff merch you might encounter around LT. Prices seem to be pretty fair but I do sometimes pick up something and put it down after looking at the price.

What an incredible place! They do popups of different franchises and so far they've had a…read moreSquare-Enix one 3 times in just the last two years! We visit every time they come back and they also had a SEGA one recently. This is located on the ground floor by Anime Jungle. Hard to miss especially since they advertise the hell out of it everywhere and there's a huge banner for it. If you're a fan of Final Fantasy, Nier, Kingdom Hearts, or even Dragon Quest, this popup is a must visit! Some of the items are released early compared to what you see online so this would be the place to get some exclusive merch! Love this place and always a fun visit. IG: @ammysalamii

Great pop up shop/event space for Little Tokyo! Make sure to follow their Instagram page as that is…read morewhere they announce their events and pop up shop collaborations. They've done some high-end, prize-figure, and kawaii collectible pop up shops with some nice collectible bags and other goods, as well as always having cute displays and photo opportunities. They've hosted pop-up maid cafe's with real food being served such as the Oinky Doink Maid cafe themed and collaborated with the Akiba Maid War anime, as well as with local maid cafes, such as Dreamland Maid cafe. The venue is also used for live events, giving a fun and underground feel if you're into indie idols and the such (or if you've seen it in anime or manga). They've hosted live events for local idols/groups and even V-tubers, along with meet and greets or buppan (when you can purchase merchandise and cheki) afterwards! During these events sometimes there's a costume/cosplay contest and open karaoke too. Great small event to have fun at. The workers here are always super friendly too. Perfect event space for weeb-related activities when there isn't a con going on!

Misty and Brock, represent. I was in the market for a Totoro desk fan, and of course they had one at a lower price than I could find on line. Tons of plush so I had to pick up a Gudetama backpack hanger. So happy to learn that the Kimono Ya family owners also operate Burbank's go-to candy store, Sweety's. Cheers!
