Great spot for card game players, especially Pokemon. Tommy is very knowledgeable with the meta and happy to help find what you need everytime. They host tournaments every Wednesday around 5pm and Saturday around noon. The shop is very well stocked and have plenty of space for everyone. It's also dog friendly too! Love this shop and the community it brings. There's a lot more events hosted here, you just gotta come see it for yourself!

Amazing store, amazing staff, amazing space to come & meet people who want to play the same games you do. They have box games, RPG minis, an entire section of comic books & memorabilia, and there's always someone working there who can answer your question about whatever it is you can imagine. Q: "Is this game any good?" A: "I dunno but if you ask ___ over here then he can tell you because he's definitely played that game." Always an honest & helpful answer (like : "If u like ___ then you will like this game but if you prefer ___ then I would suggest this game instead because it's similar but easier/simpler/shorter/faster/longer/more complicated/etc"). In addition to this, they're very honest about supply issues and order statuses. Will tell you very honestly how long you will be waiting for a certain order (for reasons outside of the control of the store's staff/logistics). Really appreciate it. ALSO, if you get hungry go get that pizza they're serving next door! Some of the best pizza in San Diego & yes they do have artichoke hearts & the pizza is giant for the price you pay. Love everything about TC's.

Have gone to several comic book stores around San Diego looking for the Mandolorian helmet and some FunkoPop. Every place I had gone was a mess or didn't have what I was looking for. But when my boyfriend and I stepped foot into this store we both said "WOAH!". I'm not a big fan of Star Wars or anything related to sci-fi but this place was pretty cool. And we actually found the Hasbro Mando helmet. Two in fact. We bought it and it's amazing! They have SO much and cool little things that I didn't see in other stores. Would definitely go again.

What a fantastic store. I have never been to a more comprehensive store stocked with an amazing collection. If your interests align with Transformers, Star Wars, GI joe and tabletop gaming, this is the place to be. It's gonna be hard to beat this store.

Do they sell manga here? If so is there a good variety?

Mr PorkTaco | Aug 21, 2021

I haven't seen much manga there, it stays true to its title "Comic's, Toys, and Games". Then again, my eyes sometimes glance over things I'm not looking for.

We do! However, due to us not having a very strong pokemon community, we are very selective on what we buy. We'd be happy to take a look at what you have to offer though!
