[Updated Dec 2017] Toy Zone new address
[Updated Apr 2014] Hong Kong is a shoppers’ paradise for toy lovers. Most of the toy shops are located in the Mong Kok district and that’s where I always stay when I visit Hong Kong. I have also included a short writeup on the toy street in Wan Chai district. Here’s a look at the malls I frequent for my Hot Toys, NECA, Figma, Nendoroid, Revoltech, gashapons and candy toys.
This post has been updated in Apr 2014 and expanded to include the type of toys that can be found on each floor of the featured shopping malls. More recent photos including Hot Toys Secret Base, Enterbay and Tai Yuen Street have been added. I have also covered additional places to shop for toys in Hong Kong. Hope that this will make your toy shopping experience a fruitful and amazing one when looking for toy stores in Hong Kong. Happy shopping and browsing!
Mong Kok District
Richmond Shopping Arcade (皆旺商場)
This is one of my favourite mall. It is located just outside the busy heart of Mong Kok on Argyle Street. If you walk past this building without knowing beforehand that it has 4 floors of toy shops, you will probably not enter it due to the nondescript facade. A stairway leading to the basement, an upriding escalator and another stairway that links to the upper floors are all you see at the entrance. No fancy window displays or toy advertisements outside. Inside, Richmond has plenty to offer in terms of 1/6 figures, Transformers, NECA, Mcfarlane, Figma, Nendoroid and Revoltech. I got all my NECA toys from here. Don’t forget to visit the basement as the stairways is not directly linked to the upper floors. Thanks to this site for the recommendation.

Another personal favourite, lots of Nendoroid, Figma, 1/6 figures & accessories and Lego can be found at In’s Point, near Yau Ma Tei MTR station. There is a shop dedicated to all things Bruce Lee too. In all there are 3 floors of toys shops but each floor is huge and has many more shops than Richmond Shopping Arcade, the top floor after that is a restaurant. I got my Hot Toys True Type bodies and Figmas from here.

Sino Centre (信和中心)
Sino Centre is a very dynamic mall as the type of shops changes every time I visit within 1 or 2 years. In the mid-2000s, there used to be lots of shops selling mostly DVDs and Animes. Most recently in 2010 and 2011, console games, asian movie / TV idol photographs, photobooks and manga have taken over. There are still Japanese toys such as gashapons and candy toys (good for collecting whole sets) and trading cards. I also noticed more rental-type cabinets with random toys and gadgets for sale. The basement is mostly unchanged, and you will be able to find music CDs, DVD or Bluray boxsets from different regions. Great if you want to collect different boxset editions of your favourite movies for the different extras. Prices are competitive and all are original and legitimate sets.
Name: Sino Centre (信和中心)
Address: 582-592 Nathan Road, Mong Kok
Nearest MTR: Mongkok station, Exit E2. Turn around and walk towards the main road, Nathan Road. Without crossing the road, turn left and walk for approximately 280 metres, you will see Sino Centre on your left. The entrance is a little obscure so look out for the large blue vertical signage that faces the pedestrian sidewalk.

Secret Base (Hot Toys Official Store)
Located at Sino Centre floor 20, this new showroom, gallery and collection centre is every toy collectors’ dream come true. Virtually every single Hot Toys figure that has been produced is on display here.
The Secret Base sign plate greets you as you exit the elevator at the 20th floor.
The impressive entrance looks straight out of a Starwars set
Huge displays adorn the entire showroom. Photography is welcome as long as you do not take photos of staff members.

CTMA Centre (兆萬中心)
No visit to Mong Kok is complete without dropping by CTMA Centre as the other Hot Toys showroom is here too. Before the opening of Secret Base, this is where you go if you want to admire Hot Toys pre-orders on display. Going by the name “Toy Hunters”, this should be familiar to you when you look at your Hot Toys packaging box. All the upcoming prototypes are displayed here. There are a few floors of toy shops here but I don’t usually buy anything from here as I don’t find their prices competitive enough. You can find mostly Japanese toys such as Nendoroid, Figma, gashapons and candy toys here. CTMA is directly behind Sino Centre but you have to walk around the whole stretch of the building to see it.

Name: CTMA Centre (兆萬中心)
Address: 1N Sai Yeung Choi Street South

Kwong Wa Street
If you are into realistic model air guns, RC helicopters, tanks, boats and cars, Kwong Wa street should excite you. Lining this street on both sides are such model shops. If you are hungry, consider having 1-michelin star Dim Sum from Tim Ho Wan. Be prepared for a long wait though.
Address: The stretch along Kwong Wa Street
Nearest MTR: Mong Kok Station, Exit A2, 700 metres away. Walking directions is a little complicated so refer to map below. I choose a slightly longer route but there are plenty of clothing, electronics and eatery shops to see along the way as you will be cutting through the heart of Mong Kok.
Google map: Kwong Wa Street
Yan-On Building
Here along Kwong Wa street, you will find the the Yan-On building which houses the Enterbay showroom and collection centre. There are also several shops selling army surplus (U.S. military supplies), hobby modeling, radio controlled (r.c.), model guns & scopes.
The entrance of the Yan-On building. Step inside to find the Enterbay store.
The Enterbay Official Store and Gallery
The battle-damaged Terminator T-800, the most realistic Arnold Schwarzenegger’s face sculpt on a 1/4 scale, in my opinion.
Enterbay is famous for their Bruce Lee figures
Address: 1 Kwong Wa St
Walking directions on Google Maps: Yan-On Building

Wan Chai District
Tai Yuen Street (太原街)
Tai Yuen street in Wan Chai district is also known as Toy Street and there are around 4 to 5 toy shops in this area. I find some of the shops resembling our local neighbourhood toy shops selling kiddo toys (for example kitchen playsets, unrealistic toy guns), but you may still be able to find a gem or two. Prices are generally higher than in Mong Kok. You can find Japanese toys such as gashapons, candy toys and an assortment of Sanrio toys. Toys that appeal to the younger generation such as Ben 10 and Beyblade can also be found here.
Tai Yuen street has several Hong Kong toy shops
Hung Hing toy shop. There are 2 outlets next to each other.
Address: Tai Yuen Street
Nearest MTR: Wanchai MTR Station, Exit A3, 80 metres away. Once you exit the station, cross the main road, Johnston Road to the other side. Turn right and walk about 30 metres. The start of Tai Yuen Street will be on your left.

Much further down Wan Chai, towards the direction of Causeway Bay, is Oriental 188. There are 3 floors of console games, PC games, mobile accessories (covers, screen protectors, battery packs, cables), Blu-ray, DVD boxsets. If you are looking for games on clearance or older games, you may wish to drop by, else I think it’s out of the way. I didn’t really see any toys for sale here. Thanks to this site which I found during my research for additional places to shop for toys.

Tai Koo Area
Toy Zone
This place is really out of the way, but apparently they have been featured in many toy magazines and newspapers due to the nature of their business. They operate as a collection point for online auctions and sales such as eBay, Yahoo auctions and even Rakuten. They mostly stock toys based on consignment and so it’s a great place if you are looking for vintage or classic toys and out-of-print items.I spotted toys such as classic McDonald collectibles, old MacFarlane toys, Spawn, NECA, Lego, Transformers, Kenner and other toys from the 80s and 90s. Prices are generally quite high as these are hard-to-find items. Thanks to this site for providing the info when I was researching on toy warehouses.
Website: Toy Zone
Address: Room B, 4th Floor, Wah Ha Factory Building, 8 Shipyard Lane, Tai Koo
Nearest MTR: Tai Koo MTR Exit A1 or A2
Walking directions on Google map: Toy Zone (Look out for Taobin on the ground floor. Go into the delivery lift area on the right. The friendly security guard will ask you which floor you are going. Tell him that you are going to the 4th floor. They will open the traditional lift with metal shutter gates and press the lift button for you. It’s quite an experience as you can see through the gates when the lift is ascending! I couldn’t figure out how to operate the lift when I left the shop so I had to walk down the stairs to the ground floor, LOL)New Address for Toy Zone as of Dec 2017 (Thanks to reader Silvester for the update!)

Hello
thank you for this information. I will definitely be stopping by!
Are the prices comparable or cheaper?
Prices are comparable actually. They used to be much better but prices are going up every year. The shopping experience is unbeatable though as the entire mall is stocked full of toy shops.
Any chance you have seen any of these Danbo dolls in any of the shops. Back out in HK in a week or two and they are impossible to get in Europe without shipping from Asia at extortionate prices
These are the things I am talking about
http://s2.favim.com/orig/32/danbo-doll-photography-Favim.com-258230.jpg
Danboards are still being re-released so you might be able to get hold of new ones soon.
Dear all, where’s the most affordable place to find Transformers collectibles?
For good prices, you have to shop around and compare the prices. Most of the shops mentioned are in the same Mongkok area so at least it’s not that hard to run around.

Nendo and SH Figurarts can be found at the usual: CTMA, In’s Point and Richmond Arcade.

Thx for Info
i am looking for hello kitty, where i can find it?
I’m not sure. You can try your luck in one of the malls, probably CTMA centre, as I have seen soft toys there. McDonald’s in Hong Kong sells Hello Kitty from time to time, and they have it much sooner than Singapore and Taiwan, so hope you are lucky to be there when they have their promotion. http://www.mcdonalds.com.hk/en.html
Just an update, I have seen Hello Kitty toys in CTMA and Wan Chai toy street.
Hi there,
Thank ou for your wonderful write up and all your many replies. I have found this to be very useful.
Can you please advise me where I can find Takara Licca dolls at low prices?
Thanks……..Simlian
Thanks for your kind words. I am not familiar with Takara Licca so I Googled this line of dolls to see what they look like. I think you might be able to find them in CTMA centre as there are some shops selling dolls over there but it’s just a guess.
Nice and useful article on Hong Kong’s toy scene! Thank you.
Just wondering, I’ll be visiting Hong Kong for a month this December/January… and I wanted to know if you’d be aware as to how toy shopping in HK compares to Tokyo and Osaka?
I’ve been to every toy store known to westerners in both cities, including Kobe and some other parts of Japan too. At the moment I’m tossing up if I should still go there, but I’m not happy about the radiation contamination that has engulfed Japan’s main cities.
Having said that, I’d only be going for a month, so I’m not to worried, even though their food is also contaminated : ( I mainly collect Macross, vinyl Kaiju toys, a bit of 1:6 scale (mainly Hot Toys) and all types of Japanese vintage toys.
Do you feel that Hong Kong would satisfy my tastes? Because I really do want to visit Hong Kong also. Thank you in advance, if you’re able to answer.
Thanks for dropping by. Hong Kong is definitely worth visiting for toys if you have not before. As Hot Toys and many other brands of 1:6 come from Hong Kong, you will be able to find a large selection be it new boxed releases or loose parts for kit bashing. I have only been to Tokyo’s Akihabara area and that was many years ago before I started collecting 1/6. Naturally, the selection of Japanese branded toys in Tokyo are much more and you have a higher chance of finding past releases. Most shops in Hong Kong are pretty small so they would stock mostly newer items. By the way, Hot Toys will be opening their new official store in Sino Centre on 14 Oct 2013, so be sure to check it out if you are in the area. :)
Thanks for sharing this very useful info, without this maybe I wouldn’t know such all of this hidden treasure places in HK
thank u so much
the price in HK is rather cheeper compare to SG and Indo, and you may also find some rare old items that maybe you’ve missed when it was released on market
I stay at Cityview hotel, best place for staying since the location is very close to Ins Point and Sino centre, walkable to nearest MTR Yau Ma Tei just 1 station to Mongkok to reach Richmond. You can see CTMA from your hotel window view.
Thx
Thanks so much for sharing. I usually stay at Stanford Mongkok, it’s about 15 minutes walk from CTMA. Sounds like Cityview is nearer and very convenient, I shall check it out next time. :)
Can I Buy any WWE Figures in toys r us hongkong or any place in tsim sha tsui?
Sorry, not entirely sure about WWE in Toys R Us but I think Richmond Arcade has shops selling them.
hi there! thanks for sharing all these wonderful info. Will be visiting hongkong in a week time. Was thinking which are the malls which I must focus on if I am looking for kamen rider medicom toys and iron man hot toys?
Also, do you by chance know of any shops that do custom painting of 1/6 figures? As I might be bringing my toy over for repainting.
Thanks!
Medicom in general (not sure specifically kamen rider) can be found in CTMA centre. Hot Toys in CTMA and In’s Point. As In’s Point has 1/6 kits and a few model shops, you might be able to find a shop to do repainting for you, but this is just my guess.
all right man. thanks for the info!
Im looking for funko pop toys. Where i can find it? Thanks
I will be going there next week
I’m sorry, not familiar with funko pop toys :( You can still try the Mongkok malls mentioned in the post as they sell a wide assortment of toys.
I know I’m really late to the party so I hope you see this but most of the malls you mentioned had a small amount of funko pop vinyls in them – just in case someone asks you in future. I wouldn’t normally go to the effort of commenting on a blog I’m not familiar with but this was SO incredibly helpful! I found some absolute gems that are worth a fortune all for around HK$120 (roughly retail price for me in Australia). One ridiculously small shop at In’s point had so many rare pop vinyls that I actually teared up haha. Just wanted to say thank you because I’ve been doing so much googling and looking online and this has been the only helpful information so far. Seriously, thank you a million times over
I love your well dcoumented site for 1/6 collecting.
As I am staying at Kowloon Hotel later this month, I only have one day for shopping.
Can you kindly recommend me which place is best in terms of pricing for buying 1/6 accessories, Richmond Arcade or In’s Point?
Thanks! It’s really hard to say as prices vary between shops. From my memory, I would think In’s Point has more shops selling 1/6 accessories. If you only have 1 day to shop and are going to Mong Kok area, you can afford to check out most of the toy malls there as they are all between 2 stations (Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok). Just note that they don’t open that early, some open near noon or after noon.
Do you know where in HK one can find vintage Corgi, Matchbox, & Dinky toys for sale?
I’m sorry, I do not know. I hope other commenters here can answer your question.
Do you have any idea where we can buy WowWee’s Roborover? (looked into toysrus hk site but found just two robots. I posted one earlier but it was deleted)
I’m sorry, I do not know. Perhaps you can try Sino Centre or CTMA if you are there. Oh, I didn’t know that WowWee is the creator of Robosapien and Roboraptor and that they are a Hong Kong toy company. You might wanna ask on their facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WowWee
Btw, all comments are moderated, meaning they have to be approved before they show up. I don’t delete comments unless they are spam.
Thank you.
Hi! Do you know a place in kowloon, preferably in mongkok, that sells official pokemon trading cards? I heard that there were a lot of fake cards in hong kong though. Thanks a lot!
I’m not sure about Mong Kok, but you can try Tai Yuen street in Wanchai. There are a few shops there that sells trading cards.
Thanks alot, man! Happy Holidays.
Hello! Thank you for showing us how to find nendoroid and all other kinds of places to buy toys.
From the many stories about fake stuff in HongKong / China are the nendoroids you buy in Richmond Shopping arcade originals or fake ones?
I have not bought nendoroids for some time but so far my purchases are genuine. Here’s an official guide from Good Smile Company for distinguishing fake / bootlegs from the real ones:

Hey I want to buy a iron helmet in mong kok but which of these places should I go. I remember they sell in a gun shop but surrounded by other anime model shops
Kwong Wa Street has shophouses selling model guns but I haven’t really seen anime model shops there. Btw, do you mean iron man helmet or a helmet made of iron? I hope you can get your answers from other readers.
Hello. I’m in HK in three weeks time, looking to buy Blythe dolls and Sonny Angel Kewpie – any ideas where to go? Any ideas. Thank you.

Thank you :)

Hi i,am looking for damtoys in hongkong where can i find it?
Since DAM toys are 1/6, I should think the usual places such as Inn’s Place and Richmond Arcade should have them since they stock many one-sixth scale figures.

hello,
Thank you for the very helpful HK guide for toy shopping, Im into Medicom Real Action Heroes, Im looking for a limited edition of EVANGELION EVA 00 RAH(resl action heroes) ,have you seen one if these medicom toys in Mong Kok which one will you recommend? And how was the prices? I have a friend going to HK this coming end of March, and I have her buy me one EVA R.A.H. so excited thank you :)
Medicom RAH are 1/6, which can be found at In’s point. The new EVA 00 seems pretty limited as it is a wonder fest exclusive so I am not sure if you can still find them. You can also try your luck at the basement of Richmond Arcade and some of the shops in CTMA centre.
Hi, do you know where to buy real steel robots (for kid) and pacific rim action figure? Thx.
Not sure about real steel. Pacific Rim figures are from NECA, which can be found in Richmond Arcade and CTMA centre, but they are rather popular so I am not sure if stocks are still available.
Hello, can you please point me to where I can find old robots such as godsigma, voltus, goggle v, gavan etc etc? Thank you very much
I’m sorry I’m not familiar with old robots. You may wish to try your luck at Sino Centre as there are many rental cabinets featuring items from the after market.
Any idea where to find bearbricks and kaws?
I believe there are bearbricks in CTMA and Richmond Arcade. Not so sure about Kaws though.
Great writeup! I’ll be heading to HK next week and this information here is truly invaluable. Thanks!
Thanks for your kind words. Do share what you have found with us here. :)
Hi There,
Great info with updates and pictures! I’m heading to Hongkong for a stopover for 2 days and the information is really helpful in my plan on checking out some toys. Cheers and Thanks! :)
Glad to be of help. Happy shopping! :D
Any idea where to get vintage toys like ghostbuster, tmnt, motu etc?
You can try your luck at Richmond or In’s Point as I have seen a few shops there selling vintage toys.
Where the most marvel legend 6 inch shop?
Thank you
Marvel can be found in most of the Mongkok shops listed in the post. Hard to say which mall has the most.
Are there S.H Figuarts Dragon Ball at In’s Point? Or maybe Play Arts Kai especially the Tekken line? Thanks!
Can’t remember exactly. I have listed most of the items in my post so I hope other readers can help you.
I was wondering where the best place to find funko pop vinyl figures specifically marvel ones is? Thanks in advance your post is really helpful!
You should be able to find funko figures at CTMA and In’s Point. For specific ones, you will have to check the individual stores as stocks vary from time to time.
Hi!
I just want to ask, since I wouldn’t be able to visit all places, where is the best place to find cheap prices/best prices for Legos? Going to look for Batman and Harry Potter sets. Thank you very much!
By the way, thanks for writing all these, very useful and informative. Keep them coming, please! Thanks a lot!! :)
Thanks for your kind comments. :) For large Lego sets, you can check out the Wanchai shops, although I am not sure if their prices are good, but they sure have plenty of very large themed play sets. If you are in the Mongkok area, you can check In’s Point.
I’ve not been, but there’s AA PLACE, the self-declared largest and most famous Lego shop in Hong Kong.
It’s on Hong Kong Island in Sheung Wan, which is the district just to the west of Central.
http://www.aaplace.hk/index.php?lang=en&p=
Thanks, sounds like a place to visit on my next trip :)
I live in Hong Kong and am familiar with most of this, but just wanted to say what a detailed and impressive resource you’ve cobbled together here.
Next time anyone asks me for tips on toy hunting in HK, I’ll just point them here! :)
Wow, I am envious that you stay in Hong Kong because I cannot get enough of the toy shopping and great food there! Thank you so much for your kind words! :D
Hi Jabalong,
I will be in HK at the end of July and i will visit the toy stores in. Mongkok. Ive been there a couple of times looking for my toy collection. But this time, i will be looking for T for Candy miniatures, dollhouses, Blythe dolls, Re ment minis. Orcara minis, Mimo minis and the like, can you tell me where exactly can I find those toys in Mongkok and in other area in HK so I can go directly when I arrived.Thank you in advance.
Hi @jabalong , do have any idea where I can find the EVANGELION EVA 00 MEDICOM RAH(RealActionHeroes) in HK? I tried asking my friends who went to hongkong few months ago but they were not able to find it =(, have you seen this model to any store in HK? Ill be in HK next week =) Hoping you can help me =) you can email me at abelbaldemor@yahoo.com thanks
Hi, I wanna ask ctma centre opening hour is what time until what time?
The shops there are generally open till 9pm.
Hi!
First of all I would like to say that your guide is amazing! Awesome work! It helped me a lot, this is how I found In’s Point so a huge thank you! I am looking forward to future guides!
That being said, I was wondering if you could give me any advice on buying Figmas and Macfarlanes in Hong Kong.
I am most interested in the Figma Amazing Spider Man 1 and 2 (I am aware that TASM2 will be released in Sep/Oct 2014) and in McFarlanes Halo figures.
I tried looking in Causewaybay (Metro comics, Clarks comics) and at In’s point. Most of the figures I am “hunting down” are out of stock or I just couldnt find them. I might have missed some stores at Ins point as I went there three times total last week (got hot toys War machine and Marvl legends ASM2 *yay*). Perhaps I. just dont know where to look?
Any idea where I should go to get them?
Again thanks!
Hey you are welcome and I’m glad that my guide has helped you ^^ For Figma, you could probably try the basement of Richmond Arcade (they open at around 3pm) as those shops tend to stock toys of Figma size, such as Revoltech and S.H.Figurarts. Many of the shops there take pre-orders if you are looking for upcoming releases. There is a shop at the 3rd floor of Richmond Arcade that sells McFarlanes and NECA, but I can’t remember if they have Halo figures.
This is a common issue with popular toys: shops tend to have limited storage space so once they are sold-out, they are seldom restocked. Sometimes they have limited allocation.
Hi.. just want to check if where can I find old releases for TOMICA TAKARA ( e.g. batmobile )..
http://gg-figure-news.blogspot.sg/2012/08/takara-tomy-batmobile-collection-10.html
Takara Tomy Tomica cars can be found in Tai Yuen Street (Wanchai). For specific models, you have to try your luck as stock varies.
I am going to Hong Kong soon. I am looking for shops that sell Vinyl 1:6 ‘assemble-yourself-kit’ of the following:
– Alien Warrior (Ridley Scott’s “Alien”)
– Alien Queen (James Cameron “Aliens”)
– Predator (removable helmet with 3 faces option from Predator (1987)
– Gremlin 1:1 (“Gremlin” 1984)
Can you help me find a good source-shop please?
Have not really seen those. Guess you will have to look for hobby kit shops or try your luck at Sino Centre since there are rental cabinets for people selling older stuff there.
Thankyou, sir…this website are very helping me to find many addres of toy&figure shop in HongKong.. Now my sister are going to shopping in Mongkok this night.. I order her to buying me a BANDAI Patlabor Griffon Flying Unit J-9 1/35 scale Master Grade…can u tell me, where’s the recommended toy shop that my sister can visit to find it ??
Thankyou very MUCH once again !!
For Gundam, you can try In’s Point in Mongkok. There are many Gundam model kits in Tai Yuen St (Toy Street in Wan Chai) too if you are in the area.
Are the price reasonable enough? Will i get a chance to find a “boa hancock in wedding gown”figure art here? This was just a limited edition so i’m having hard time to search for a store i can buy this for a friend who’s a collector of the said character. Thanks a lot guys
New toy prices and pre-orders are very reasonable. Same as elsewhere, if you are looking for older items, they may be priced higher due to demand or even be completely sold out.
Hello there,
Thank ou for your wonderful write up and all your many replies. I have found this to be very useful.
Can you please advise me where I can find nano blocks?
Thanks before :)
Regards,
Ririe
You can find nano blocks in the Log-on chain stores and also Tai Yuen Street. Look for the address in the post. :) You will probably also find them in CTMA basement shops, but I am not 100% sure.
Hi,
I’m in Hong Kong at the moment looking for diecast bus models. I’m familiar with 80M and I’ll also drop by Tai Yeun street as they had some stuff last time. Any other suggestions welcome.
Thanks
Paul
Hello !
Can anyone tell me where to buy Morrigan Aensland and Catherine figures in Hong Kong ?
TY
Hi, do you know where to get Wholesale party supplies etc partty hats, cups, plates, favors. Theme: disney, hello kitty, princess etc in Hong kong? Or China would be better?
Thanks!!!
There should be some distributors at Wan Chai Toy Street. You can price check among the shops there. I am not familiar with China as I have not been there to purchase wholesale supplies.
Hi
What a great site. Thanks to the creator of this link. Brilliant work
Just a quick one and wondering if any of you guys above managed to see any Neca Rocky figures or Jakks pacific? Jakks pacific Rocky figures.
I fly over for 3 days of toy shopping (personal collection and there are a few bits that I am missing.
Did anyone manage to find MOTU classics collection / Original Ghostbusters and I am going out on a limb but would try to find some HASBRO vintage WWF any of these shops selling old stuff?? other bits I want to add is something from Back to the future / I am sure I will find marvel and DC as I have the info written down from all you guys .. thanks. Even an old street hawk would be amazing but I guess that is impossible. Main toys for myself would be ROCKY / HOT TOYS COMMANDO / GHOSTBUSTERS / SIMPSONS /
As you guys have prob been and gone since the last messages, what were your finds. lets keep the post going :-)
Hello, I was wondering which shop/area has the most figma/anime figurines available? And thank you for this site, I was frantically trying to find some shops which sells anime figurines but most sites are outdated (around 2009 etc) so it was a great relief to find this site with all the useful information :]
For Figma / Anime merchandise, nothing beats Mongkok and Yau Ma Tei area, namely Richmond Arcade basement and In’s Point respectively. When you are in the area, there’s no harm dropping by Sino Centre and CTMA if you have time, might find a gem or two :)
Hi, thanks for all the info and recommendations.
Do any of the shops in In’s Point open around noon as I cannot stay later than 2pm.
I’m looking for the Lego Ninjago minifigures. Thanks
That’s really hard to say as I always visit in the afternoon, after 1pm. I would say at noon, most shops might not be open yet. Guess you just have to try your luck and try to hang around for as long as you can.
I noticed that online HK and China sellers Have loose GI Joes and Star Wars figures. I am wondering where in HK can I pick them up. Or do I have to go to Guangzhou or somewhere else?
Hi, where I can get a dunbo toys, thank you!
If you are referring to Danbo (Danboard), you can find them at In’s Point and CTMA. I bought both my mini danbo amazon version and the normal version there.
Hello
Where in HK can you buy Funko Pop items ?
thanks
If I am not mistaken, I believe I have seen Funko Pop toys at CTMA centre.
Hello good afternoon. Where I can buy these couple stuff toy where they put in front of the bridal car? Thank you.
hello,
This site is fantastic.
I am in asia for work in Thailand in particular.
unfortunately the change with euro is not good.
are fond of Saint Seiya.
do you think if I went three days in hong kong I might find something interesting with prices more ‘low?
and where should I stay? because time is very short.
thank you
eric
Yes, you will find that prices of toys in Hong Kong are competitive if you shop around. I have seen Saint Seiya in Mongkok shops. Prices of hotels in Hong Kong are generally more expensive than other Asian countries, such as Thailand. I stayed at City View in Mongkok (next to Yau Ma Tei MTR station) on the recommendation of another reader. I found it very convenient and affordable if you just want to shop around in Mongkok during your stay in Hong Kong. Good luck!
Hi,
I would like to start a toy hobby shop, in need of a good supplier of diiferent collectibles like figmas, shf, gundams and so on. Not really familiar with how the supplier thing works, so any suggestion would be a big help. It is my dream to have business that deals with toys. Thanks
Thanks for all the hard work you put into this, I hope it hasn’t been mentioned already but would you know where I could find the Japanese sonny angel dolls? Thanks!

Hello, Great site! There was a vintage toy shop selling many 80s toys featured on TVB on Jan 11, 2015.
Here was the synopsis:

2015.01.11 – 童趣.拾遺
播出日期: 2015.01.11 (日)
在每一代人的成長中,都少不了玩具的影子。由以往的「擲豆袋」,到大大小小的娃娃和機器人,再到搖搖和迷你四驅車等,玩具陪伴了無數人走過他們的孩童歲月,留下了一段段的泛黃回憶。
今日的玩具,製作精美,用料講究,價錢也不菲,更像是收藏品。業界中人亦坦言,現時的玩具,已不再是為小孩而製造的遊樂工具,玩玩具的,更多是成年人。
相對於玩具車和模型,現在的小孩,更習慣於在智能手機上滑來溜去,沉迷在聲畫俱佳的電子遊戲之中。
到底「玩具」的定義是否已改變?還有孩子和家長會醉心於舊日的「低科技」玩具嗎?電子遊戲又會否全面取代舊玩具?仍在竭力推廣、保存舊玩具的人們,他們又是為了甚麼?
這一個星期日,讓我們重拾童趣。

Do you know where in Hong Kong this toy shop is?? Many thanks.
I am not residing in HK so I was unable to watch the show. From the synopsis, neither the name of the toy shop nor location is mentioned.
Hi, I just want to ask, do they have Lord of the Rings collectibles in HK too? I want to buy something :(
Just arrived in hon Kong! Need to get littlest pet shop figures!!! Any ideas where
Is best , thanks
Hi, do u know where to buy good remote toy car…?
Range more abt 30m, so so powerful..
I don’t mind spend $300 on one
Pls advise.
Thank you !!
You can find RC cars at Kwong Wa street. Do check out my post for the details.
Awesome site!! Going to save me a lot of time when I go to Hong Kong in 2 months time
Question, you mentioned Halo toys, Im guessing those are the Mcfarlane range? I was wondering if you have seen any Halo Mega Bloks toys in your travels in Hong Kong? Or where I am most likely to find some?
Thanks!!
You are correct, I was referring to the Halo range from McFarlane. I can’t remember if Mega Bloks can be found in Mongkok or Wanchai but your best bet would still be these places. I will look out for them the next time I visit Hong Kong again.
Awesome, how was the pricing on the McFarlane range? Been meaning to pick up a couple of those toys as well, but will definitely check out those 2 places for Mega Bloks, Im going over on the 1st of May… I know there is an eBay sellers who I think are selling factory seconds (not quite sure what the deal with those are is) out of Hong Kong, so hopefully i’ll get lucky
I did not note down the prices of McFarlane but I think they should be reasonable since NECA prices are fine over there.
Good luck with your toy hunt! :)
Hello
I am on my way to Hong Kong
Can you please tell me where can I find Siku Toys diecast.
Thank you and kind regards
I have seen Siku diecast toys in Wanchai toy street. There are also diecast model hobby shops in Langham Place, Mongkok but I am unsure if they stock Siku. Do read my post for more details.
Hi Iam going to hong kong where can I found Takara tomy transformers?
Transformers are very popular in Hong Kong. You can find both Hasbro and Takara Tomy Transformers in all the places I covered in my post.
Hello I am heading to Hong Kong soon and I would like to know where I can find Kamen Rider and Super Sentai toys? Thanks in advance for this article, it was a good read.
You can find these at In’s Point.
Thanks
Hi there,
I was curious how popular Transformer toys are in HongKong, especially the Transformers made by Hasbro or Kenner brands. I noticed many hongkong toy business people get their toys from Ebay but I was wondering how many PERCENT increase do they resale a transformer toy in HongKong after they already paid BIG Price on ebay… How do they make money?
Thanks I am just curious because I noticed one buyer in HongKong bid on over 500 transformer toys.. LOL HAHA insane..
Transformers seem to be popular everywhere, not just Hong Kong. I still see people buying Transformers in Singapore too. Since there are so many sellers, I would think they must be making money somehow. :)
Hi There!
Thank you for this wonderful blog! I was looking for a good guide for toy shopping in HK.
We’ll be going there on August and I hear it’s a Sales month. Are toys covered too?
I’d like to hunt for cheap hard to find transformers toys. Can you suggest any that is in walking distance with Chungking Mansions, Tsim Sha Tsui?
Hong Kong summer sale period is from July to September. These sales are usually for clothing and cosmetics departmental stores at shopping malls.
I can’t really find any collectible toy shops in Tsim Sha Tsui as that area is more for up-market shopping malls and boutiques. You can visit Toys R Us at Harbour City / Ocean Terminal if you like. I prefer to shop at the Mongkok area for toys.
Thanks for the reply. We’ll definitely go to Mongkok.
Can you recommend a particular store there which has the lowest priced Transformers figures even the used or loosed ones? How much do they go for?
That’s really hard to say because stock and prices vary according to demand. I guess the best way would be to shop around and compare prices since there are many shops that sell Transformers. Good luck!
Do you know where to go for a selection of tachyon / capsule toy machines? Also are there any gaucho on with local monuments, etc in them? Thanks.
I meant gachapon machines in Hong Kong. Sorry for autocorrect.
I found this chain of shops specializing in gashapon machines: Vivi Shop. http://www.ilovehongkong.hk/kowloon-bay/things-do/vivi-shop
I have not been there, maybe you can take a look when you get a chance? They have several outlets.
HI is me again and can you find in Hong Kong transformers United figurs?

Hi, do you have any toy shop guides for Shenzhen? I’ve noticed a lot of export sellers on US eBay are located there I would love to browse any possible physical shop standS. Thanks for the informative blog!
I have only been to Shenzhen (it is part of Mainland China) once many years ago, took a train from Hong Kong. Saw a lot of counterfeit designer goods at the mall nearest the train station so I would be wary of the authenticity of the toys sold there. Not sure if it’s still the case now.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I’m interested to buy this Premium Bandai model kit while I’m in Hong Kong early next month: Chogokin GE-48 Frontier Macross Quarter S.M.S Transformable Space Attack Carrier. Here is the link on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Macross-Frontier-Chogokin-GE-48-Quarter-S-M-S-Transformable-Space-Attack-Carrier-/370626592568.
As I’m visiting Hong Kong on 8 November 2016 – 11 November 2016, I’d need for your help to kindly inform me where I can find any shop specialising in Bandai Premium products like this, which is close to Mira Mall (close to Tsim Sha Tsui Station).
Your help is really appreciated. Thank you very much and have a pleasant day!
Regards,
Lin
Tsim Sha Tsui area is mainly a shopping district with modern malls and commercial toys, not so much for hobby/model toys.
If you are looking for Macross model kits, try WanChai Toy Street where there are at least a few shops stocking Gunpla model kits.
I also read that Fuk Wing Street near Sham Shui Po MTR has wholesalers for toys, but I have not been there before.
You can try some of the place listed here too:

Hello,
I am traveling to Hong Kong next week & for the first time I am staying in Central!
I normally stay in Kowloon, where I shop at Sino, CTMA, Ins & Richmond.
I have no idea where to find anime, movie, video game & pop culture related product in Central so any suggestions would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
Elley
If you don’t want to venture far, you can drop by Tai Yuen Street, also known as Toy Street, near Wan Chai station which is just a few stops from Central. More details in my write-up above. :)
Hi. I’ll be in HK first week of April & staying at Cityview. My son loves trains esp Thomas & friends. Where can I buy these? Any vintage trains too?

Hi! Is it cheaper to buy Hot toys at Secret base? If not..where should I buy at Hongkong?
Secret Base caters mostly to preorders. For prices of existing stocks, it’s best to shop around the areas I mentioned and compare.
Hi. Thanks to you my son had a blast with these toy havens. We were able to find both Thomas & Friends trains and many kinds of trains mostly in In’s point & Sino centre. We’ll definitely come back for more. By the way, is there a toy mall such as these in Japan as well? We’re planning to go around October in Osaka.
Thank you and I’m glad you had a great time in Hong Kong :) I have not been to Osaka; I hope to visit in the near future so that I can write about it. :)
