Half toy store and half movie museum, The Monster Store is a must-see if you are a movie buff. The shop does specialise in horror movies--some of the cool things I saw were a 14" replica of Pinhead, Friday the 13th lip balm and a giant blood-spattered poster of Christian Bale in Psycho. The merch isn't limited to horror though, there are all kinds of collectors toys and memorabilia for many different movies. The coolest part of the shop is the mini-museum in the back. Here you can see actual props used in many great (and not so great) movies. I saw Freddy Kreuger's glove and Harry Potter's Hogwarts letter. And from the not-so-great movie category: a pink shoe that Eddie Murphy wore in Norbit. If you find yourself in Nottingham, definitely drop by! There's something for everyone!

Maybe my memory messed up on that. I recently heard that the shop was closed as Bob passed away a fw years ago. Very sad. That as well as Jum Davis Models in Marsh Lane Erdington was among my favourite places

For anybody who loves train models, car models or aircraft models, then Bob's is definitely the…read moreplace to be for you. In Birmingham, there are few and far between shops that sell such a wide scope as of collectors items, and this dwindling number is more than likely the result of a rise in internet sales in this area; So it's great that a place like Bob's has managed to exist throughout this climate. The store is surprisingly big inside, as appose to the small appearance from the street, and it literally stocks every toy/building hobby imaginable. There are boat building kits, train sets, die cast cars and tanks. Bob's also caters for niche collectors too, and there's a great selection of Star Wars models sold inside, such as star fighter ships. I bought my first scalextric from Bob's, and I used to have great fun playing with it as a young'n. (Writing this really makes me want to retrieve my set from the loft actually) Prices for scalextric cars aren't cheap, and tend to reach around £30 per car. But then again, the models are so detailed and delicate, it's definitely worth paying the cash.
