Toy Mandala

Toy Mandala is a pretty cool store. I went in there to get a present for my oldest son but it was hard to find something for a 10 year old. It's a paradise for collectors of comic books, cards, etc. This is a place geared more toward the big people instead of the little ones.

I found this place a few years back and I now I drop in on it at least a couple times a year anytime I am looking for just the right present for friends back home. The store has a plethora of action figures and collectibles from the areas of anime, comic books, graphic novels, sports and Japanese youth culture. I always stumble across something in that store that I had never seen or even knew existed. There are treasures waiting to be discovered.

I've been frequenting this place since more than 7 years past - originally named "Collector's Guide," they specialized in japanese animation and manga, as well as collector's items such as cards (i.e. Magic, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc.). The store was, and still is, run by a small and select few who have proven to possess a thorough knowledge of a large selection of DVDs, anime series, manga, games and more. Because of the tiny staff, any regular quickly becomes a recognized face and name to at least one of the nice people behind the counter... I could go on and on, but suffice it to say that the friendly environment is a definite plus to a nice variety of common and pre-ordered items, even if the selection and store aren't as massive as other places.
