Puzzle Zoo Toy Store

I hate to say this but I don’t think this place will last much longer. I mean it’s less than half of what it used to be. I take my kids and we try to support it but toy selection is not to exciting and the one that are like the legos are totally over priced. I don’t mind paying more since I know the rent at the promenade is huge but come on! I’m not an idiot either. For tourist it may work. But for locals who know target is a block away nahhhhh Went in today (5 months later) and my daughter bought some funny little plastic pull toy. Looks like a giant expandable straw. She loves it. It was $10 I let her buy it to support them. May go back to get another one tomorrow for my son. I know they’re cheaper other places but I like to support local stores when I am not being ripped off that much lol

Great selection though it is a shadow of what it used to be. Some places online say they open at 10am, but they open at 11am

cannot speak highly enough about puzzle zoo and its employees, by far my favorite hobby toy store in santa monica, gerardo has always taken care of me and welcomed me as though i’m part of the family, and miss colorful hair behind the counter can always make me laugh, and as much as i want to keep it my secret spot…they somehow always have pokémon cards…but even when they’re sold out, i always leave with smile

What a cool place to go for nostalgic games/toys/figures!!! Check out the Funko Pops! So many rare and hard to find collectables. Heard other customers complain about packaging, but understand most items you just cant find anymore. A true collector of vintage toys would love and understand the beauty of this amazing store. I walked out with great items that I have not seen or heard of anywhere! Love the enthusiastic and knowledgeable staff as well.
