A lot of my childhood memories don't even really include buying things here- my parents weren't exactly rolling in the dough in the 90's but this place was so magical I never left disappointed. But- here's my adult perspective review. I love coming here for the nostalgia, gifts for everyone in my life, the seasonal items, and for The dopamine hit. I love all of their fidget toys, tiny silly toys like baby doll race cars (as in a car in the shape of a baby), blind box toys and their trading set up, and baby section. This is where you go when your friend is having a baby and already has all of the gear she needs. This is where you get stickers, your Christmas ornaments, a jellycat moon that is larger than you, a family of squirrels, a custom dollhouse family...I could go on and on.

Even when she's not in town, I find myself going there for her to get Sonny Angels and Smiskis that are oh so popular these days. The store's entrance has slightly been taken over by blind boxes, but if you step to the other side, there are so many exciting toys all over the place here. It's always a thrill to step in and find a little trinket to take home with me. A true toy store. We are lucky to still have some like this in Austin. RIYL: Childhood wonder

This guy's packed in as much variety as the other places into a building half the size. $5 a pound for bulk Legos I don't think that price can be matched anywhere. You got a good selection in the build your own minifig section also priced very very well. The new inbox Lego sets are priced , I think some of them might be a little more than you pay at Walmart or Target but they're ones that you can't find there anymore so it seems fair even his old sets and those kind of things reasonably priced.

Updated review 12/20/23:…read more So I heard back from the company via text, and I was given my tracking information. It wasn't instant... it took about 2 days, I imagine it's because of the busy holiday season, but I ended getting my tracking number and the expected delivery date is on schedule as advertised when I purchased my item. I went ahead and gave 2 more stars. I would highly recommend that the company simply shoot out an automatic confirmation email after a purchase is made followed by tracking info shortly after that. -------- They don't send out any confirmation of your online order. The chat and number they provide to contact them is a joke because nobody responds to you. When you call the phone number instead of texting it, they have a greeting which is reassuring until it says they'll connect you to the next available agent and it doesn't even ring... you just sit there in silence. This is the useless phone number that is provided on their website: (512) 257-2399
