Editorial Review for Munky King – by Kim Cooper

In Short
The only kids shopping in this compact toy store are those chaperoning their parents while scoping out the latest Japanese import Kubrick figures, peculiar plushies and limited edition, artist-designed vinyl toys. Prices are five times what they'd be for mass-produced items, but the weird little creatures by visionaries like Gary Baseman, Tim Biskup and James Jarvis are at least unique and eye-catching. The shop also stocks T-shirts, art prints and colorful, unusual stocking stuffers.

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

Many smaller items come "blind box" style--until opening the box, the buyer won't know which toy from the series they'll receive.

When to Go

Get on the mailing list for invitations to art openings and occasional discount offers.

The Extras

Look out for one-off artist-painted special edition toys and artwork, often on display and sometimes marked down.
