Return to CSC

Wow, its been ages since i last went csc to jalan jalan, met up to collect some stuff from a friend. Place is a shadow of its former self; soooo many shops are now closed, i guess the landlord's not interested in having so many toy shops around now.

Well, had to test out the place again so i went to THAT guy in the corner (you know who i'm speaking about right buddy?) somehow he's still there selling stuff. So i just asked about the price of a HT figure... And got his most amazingly condescending reply/look... How he manages to sell stuff still is beyond me. :p

Hamley's Toy Shop

So a new Toy shop has opened at Plaza Sing! Its been a while since SG had a shop dedicated to selling toys only; i remember the good ol' days of Kids World and Inkids... Ahhhh....

Anyway, Hamley's is a UK based shop which used to be call Noah's Ark or something. Honestly the selection is pretty... Poor. The floor space is too small and the selection weak. There's no differentiator from other dept store toy sections seriously... Although it's interesting that they so sell some board game stuff. :p

Remains to be seen how they do, but at the moment they seem kinda out of touch with what kids want today and the selection of toys they have.

Toy shop Fantasy

Ever wanted your own toyshop? I do! Well if i had a hundred grand i would go after THIS auction on Ebay!

A little hard to believe, but seems the guy is really interested in selling the goods; i believe the stuff in the shop is actually worth more than a hundred grand.

And remember, pickup only! ;)
