Big Boys Toy Store enables any toy lover or collector not only a chance to purchase the most popular toys in popculture, but also add rare toys! The great thing about the staff at Big Boys is that they are incredibly accomodating, and best of all they understand the obssession! Tell them what toy you're looking for and they'll tell you if they have it or if not whether you can pre-order it. They have clearbooks filled with different items that are not on hand at their stores but available for order if it indeed what you desire. And if what you are looking for is not included in stock or in the pre-orders file, they have been known to source it out for you. Just ask nicely lol!

JAE Collectibles is another nerd's store. By that I mean, everything inside it is something only a…read moredie hard fan of comics and such would ever appreciate. There are so many different toys in there. It's a small place, but man were they able to cram so much stuff in there. I mean, looking at all the toys in that place made my headspin. If you're a Pinoy and you find it difficult to find a collectible, I strongly recommend that you visit this place. I mean, crap words can't just begin to express the number of stuff in there that I like and the obscene and unhealthy amount of cash I want to splurge in that place and on the toys that I want to buy. So there you have it, if you're a nerd who really wants to buy limited edition collectible figurines and such, then this is the place that you want to go to.

This store is heaven!…read more I walked into this store not knowing what to expect and I walked out with a whole list of toys to buy the next time I come here. I'm going back for their Marvel stuff. They have almost all the characters from Marvel in all shapes and sizes. Some are collectors items that are really expensive while other Marvel toys are smaller and cheaper. I was so happy to see an Agent Coulson toy! Another toy I'm coming back for is their Big Bang Theory figurine/toy of all the characters. It's a set already so I don't have to look for and buy each piece separately. They have something also for the Game of Thrones fans. And basically if you're a fan of any TV series, movie, comic book or any character, they just might have something you'd want to collect.

Man, another blast from the past. I used to go to Hobbes and Lands all the time on the off chance…read morethey still had a stock of really old booster packs from some old set of Magic the Gathering. Often, they didn't understand the value of these booster packs since some of them contained old never reprinted cards. Anyway, I like this store because they sell a lot of really cool and neat stuff that you won't find anywhere else. Stuff like moving planetariums, a skeleton, or a kid's chemistry set. Fancy puzzles and other Lego like products abound this place. That said, the biggest issue I find with this store is that a vast majority of their products are products that basically only rich people could afford. I don't blame them though, most if not all there stuff are imported from abroad so I'm not surprised.

I like walking around Hobbes and Landes on any given day because it's not your average toy store…read moreand it's always so fun to see what new stuff they've put in stock. As a kid I loved playing with all the interactive puzzle games and board games on display and browsing all the cool toys they were selling. Nowadays I go in there whenever I want to buy a unique birthday or Christmas present for one of my little cousins. They have a wide variety of innovative board games for all ages, things for your pets, baby and toddler playthings, and collectible items such as figurines. They also have educational toys and knick-knacks for the science or geography loving kids (or kids inside!) as well as books, novelty items and uncommon arts and crafts.

A visit to Greenhills will never be complete without going to Regina Gift Shop…read more When I was a kid my parents would remind me that it's a gift shop meaning I went in to buy gifts for other people. I believed that lie until I was about ten. I guess that was to prevent me from buying all the awesome goodies this shop has to offer. Sorry, parents. I'm buying gifts for myself. They have everything! And I really mean everything. They have all my childhood candies next to a stand of plastic balloons. You know, those little tubes which you squeeze until this substance comes out which you blow into with the use of a little stick. There's a shelf with plates, spoons and forks and knives, cups and lunchboxes. And in the center, you'll find notebooks, stickers, pens, art materials, cellphone cases and the occasional sex toy. Speaking of toys, they do have toys for babies and children and adults who collect toys. Not into those things? They have bags, clothes and hats too. I remember being dragged here by my mom whenever I needed a costume for school. "You're only going to wear it once anyway. But it at Regina," she'd say. Don't get me wrong, their clothes don't break after one use. They have cool socks and hats. And sometimes if you're lucky, they have sell Christmas stockings. I can't remember everything they sell at this shop. So it would be great if you have a look for yourself. You won't be disappointed and you'll leave with lots of loot.

Gift Factory holds a special place in my heart. I remember way back when in grade school and high…read moreschool (yes, at that age I still liked stuff toys, hehe) before the era of technology overtook the world, my favorite aunt and uncles would gift me with stuff toys from Gift Factory and my school friends would gift me with GF toys for Friendship Day. They focus on stuff toys big (and I mean big like children's size) and small. I always loved how soft and plush their toys are and how gosh darn cute everything in the store is. And also how the interior is simple and the walls are glass so they can showcase their toys in all its glory. If you are a mom, a dad, an auntie or an uncle and you're looking for great gifts for a holiday or special occasion, their stuff toys are the perfect choices for your little sons, daughters, nieces and nephews!

Any geek will tell you that collecting figures is not an easy hobby. Taking one look at the…read moreMaxicollector store will be reason enough to see why. Known as the premier supplier of the highest quality collectables around, this haven is not easy for anyone's wallet, with busts being sold for as much $600. At best, Maxicollector can be considered a very geeky museum of statues and collectibles for people to look at. Still, it's not difficult to see why many of these figures are sought after by the most ardent of collectors. The quality of work that goes into the figures shows in the display, and often are at 1:6 of the original scale. Who knows? If you feel like spoiling yourself with something out of Star Wars or Marvel comics, Maxicollector might have what you need.

From the owner: We sell museum quality statues and collectibles.read more

Another toy shop I like going to is Toys R Us…read more I visited the shop today to see if they had any new Mr. or Mrs. Potato Heads. They didn't have any new ones, but they did have the crazy looking Mrs. Potato Head. They also had the Marvel Potato Heads. When I saw the Marvel Potato Heads, I thought about looking through the Marvel toy brand. It was interesting to see that Play-Doh has like a Hulk, Captain America, Iron Man and other Marvel characters. I'm not sure what the toys does, but I wanted to get it for the simple reason that it's Marvel. Another new Marvel toy they have is this rubber figure of Iron Man, Captain America and Spiderman. They toy doesn't really do anything. It's not a key-chain and you can't really play with it, but the kids in the store thought it was amazing. I hope they'll have the whole Avengers team next time including the new members.

Other parents may find the notorious "DisneyCollectorBR" and "FunToyzCollector" of YouTube familiar, and to blame, for this craze. Toys R Us really is something, though. I remember my visits to LA being incomplete until I picked up a Super Soaker or toy laboratory set from Toys R Us. Now, the Philippines has this haven of happiness.
