They have lots of paint and art supplies, and lots of cool posters in the wall in their tournament area! Cards are clearly labeled behind the counter for sale and in the glass cabinet too. Lovely local card shop!

We went in to check out the store as we will be staying at Issaquah for quite some time and wanted…read moreto see what the store had. We were a bit nervous as they have MTG in their name and weren't sure if they had other TCG items but we were happy to see that they had Pokemon, Lorcana, One Piece, and other goodies! They had desk mats, card sleeves, and even art supplies for figure painting. Their space is huge with big tables and several chairs for people to hang out at. It is also well-lit too! They have a small section in the far back of the store that people can set their bulk and you are more than welcome to take what you want as they will throw it away at the end of the day. They even provide a small paper bag to put in what you take! My boyfriend and I got a Azurite Sea booster for the each of us and my pack had a legendary so that was neat! The prices for the booster were fair as well, not overpriced like some other card stores. They are not dog friendly due to one of the employees having dog allergies (totally understandable, I just like asking as we love bringing our dogs to card shops to play) but they mentioned that we can bring dogs on Wednesdays as that employee doesn't work on those days. Additionally, they have quite the in store events ranging from weekly meet ups for different TCGs, Warhammer and more. Their website is very cool too!

Upon going back after a long while they instantly remembered me and it was the same old warm TCG environment they have mastered.

This of course led my husband and I through a sea of nostalgia and the kids watching endless "card pull" videos. This was our first time at Metro, and my 6 year old son was lead by destiny to find the coveted "God pack" or golden Charizard (his words, not mine). While the kids "ohhh'd and ahhh'd" over the cards and played their hand at the claw machines - I asked the guy working for the info on the different packs. He was so patient and sweet to my 5 year old daughter who was a tad too energetic and excited, and the boys who acted as if we were looking at the answer to world peace through a glass case. He was full of knowledge, answered questions about uncommon Pokemon, and let my son pick out which of the Pokemon boxes he felt was "lucky". In a time where my kid has to compete with adults to even get the chance for a Pokemon machine to release a few items... always leaving empty handed because they emptied it out as he stood behind them in line... you made my kids day. Thank you Conner, for making our first trip there so special.

Especially in these days with card shortages everywhere, these guys have pulled through. They were still working on their online shop when I went in, but that's ok! My first time walking in I was greeted by the sports card workers, and they politely showed me the side for Pokémon. Amazing!! Boxes and boxes of stocked up ETB's, promo boxes, and tins. It was just like being a kid again! The places was bustling on a Saturday evening, and there were many kids in the shop buying things as well. After a sale, I couldn't help but notice the sales attendant threw in some extra cards in for free! As well as for me once I told them it was my first time coming in! After some recommendations for a new collector, I walked out with a Celebrations ETB (Very hard to find for a decent price nowadays!) and a couple free card storage boxes as well. An amazing store, with an inviting atmosphere for new collectors and players alike!! Will highly recommend this store in the future!

They announce sales pretty last minute (like sometimes less than a days notice) so plan accordingly. Fill-a-bag table is frequently restocked, sometimes you can find partial builds in it. Sorted bins by color & type (tires, bionicle, etc). Separate bins for different priced items (wall panels, windows, jet and boat parts, etc). A build your own minifig bin, and a pretty extensive collection of minifigs from various themes in the case. They do buy some used sets but are particular so talk to staff first. A good assortment of built as-is sets in display cases, ask staff for details first. They also come to near by schools for Lego build nights, great folks supporting the community with fun activities.
