Hi all Just want to do some reviews of toyshops in Kuching.. When it comes to specialty toys and collectibles, the only reputable area to scout for is Kuching. not even KKinabalu has good toy shops...

Here are some, with name if i remember them, location, and short-to-the-point reviews:

01. Speed, GF Tun Jugah: VERY wide selection of collectibles, Masterpieces, Binaltechs, Macross, die-cast chogokins, Gundam, etc. But it's a small shop and the price is kinda high e.g. Hasbro MP Starscream is priced at RM399! and strangely, so does Takara MP-06 Skywarp friendly seller though.. (my 2nd choice)

02. WonderToys, 1st Floor The Spring: it's actually a branch of Speed, bigger shop and same selections and pricing. (2nd/3rd choice)

03. ToyZone, top floor Sarawak Plaza: probably the BEST and BIGGEST toy shop in the whole of Borneo! all items except Gundams (slightly pricier, about RM40 from retail price) are at retail price! Transformers, Star Wars, Lego and such. the owner (a VERY nice aunty) is helpful and knows the toys she's selling Highly Recommended. not much of the high-end collectibles though. (1st choice )

04. ???, UG Floor Hock Lee Centre: has a sizable amount of specialty toys/collectibles, but VERY pricey.. some are WAYYyyy too overpriced! (e.g. Conan/Wrarrl twinpack of Marvel Comic Heroes priced at RM299!!!; retail is only RM80!)

05. ???, 2nd floor Hock Lee Centre: big place, but mostly KO toys.. may have stocks of original japanese toys from takara from time to time.

hope this'll help! cheers!
