True Believers (Located inside Menlo Park Mall)…read more55 Parsonage Rd. Edison, NJ 08837 If you are a millennial and want to relive your past time, this vintage toy store is right up your alley. This location specializes in action figures, statues, retro home consoles, and other keepsakes. As I entered the store, it had the feel of a museum because many items are not available in retail stores. I was especially impressed with the detail of the action figures. The characteristics of each trait are handcrafted perfectly and I can guarantee you will instantly recognize each specific trait. There is a diverse variety of additional merchandise in True Believers. An entire wall is filled Funko Pop! vinyl figures. Although I don't collect any cards, there are many Pokémon trading cards available; they are surprisingly valuable. The video game systems will also keep you entertained. Engage in the Game Boy or neutralize the bad guys with the Nintendo Zapper; now you are playing with power! Although I currently am not in the market for any novelties, it was still a neat experience exploring this store. It is a must visit for true believer that is young at heart. #truebelievers #menloparkmall

Pricing: The prices can vary depending on what kind of item you are looking to purchase. Some items are bit overpriced for no reason at all. Items: They have all sorts of items from Funko pops, plushies, video games, hot wheels, Pokemon cards, and etc. The staff: They do not know where the items come from and say that people just sell them anything. When you ask them about selling a toy to them, they give you mixed information. One staff member said to contact them on Facebook on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Another staff member said to contact them on Instagram on Monday and Thursday. When you ask them if it would be cash or store credit they say either is fine. They also do not guarantee that your item can be sold to them even though they say that they buy anything and everything. Overall: The staff members should be knowledgeable about their store and the items they buy and sell. This store is good if you want to buy something once or twice but not all time due to the high pricing for some items.

Very helpful with questions about the tea and interacts in casual conversation. They even provide free face masks and hand sanitizer. The Ginger Tea is incredibly warming on a cold winter day. Not sweet at all with the perfect amount of ginger! You get the warmth from the hot tea followed by a nice warm kick from the ginger. Love it! I can't wait to go back just for this. Located smack in the middle of Main Street it's hard to find parking but the perfect location to pop in if you're wandering Main Street. Or if this place is your destination you're luck because you're surrounded by tons of local shops to browse for the rest of your morning/afternoon. Inside the store is really quaint and cozy but well lit so you can see what you're shopping. The shelves are organized very well by product. There's games, puzzles, greeting cards, jewelry, tea sets, and much more! Past the games is the counter to order tea. Tons of seating spots, even kiddie seats and tables. The window display has this beautiful winter Christmas scene to add a sprinkle of festiveness to the place! If I wasn't recommended to this place by someone I would've missed it, it's hard to tell from the outside all the things it has to offer.

I only ever stopped into Main Street Comics once while passing through the area. I was certainly…read moreimpressed with how clean and organized the store was, along with their overall collection of back-issue books. So, I spent some time going through most of their bins. Unfortunately, the condition of those back-issue books rarely reflects the significantly higher prices they charge. As an avid comic collector and seller myself, I'm well aware of market value. And their prices are well -above- market value. Keep in mind, this is only regarding their back issues. The new release section had standard new-release pricing and was well stocked. So if I ever decide to visit again, it will only be for the new releases and nothing else.

This place sells fake signature books and misleads customers. I will never shop here again.read more

It's hard to be a die-hard comics only store anymore so I don't blame owners for selling card games and comic related merchandise. But the number of back issues and high-end books are missing considerably. If you a serious collector and read the previous reviews you might be disappointed when you visit looking for certain back issues or 60's, 70's and even 80's stock.
