BobaKhan Toys & Collectibles

I live in Seattle and this store is a bit of a drive. But, I’ve visited twice and found the products, people and store to be well worth the drive. I had originally purchased sight unseen a toy/​collectible for my 3-​year old. They were the only place in the area to have the product and the purchase and pick up went smoothly and the people were great, helping to package it up for gift wrapping.
The store itself is large and roomy. They’ve got a great selection of inventory ranging from the newest Star Wars items and Legos to 40-​year old collectibles. They definitely don’t bother you as you look around, but offer just the right combination of support and product knowledge. The staff seem passionate about toys and collectibles and I will definitely be visiting again soon!

This place is beyond incredible. A vast array of vintage toys including international toys are available here. From GI Joe to transformers, this place has it all! You can tell the employees there are passionate about the toys and are very knowledgable. I have been to many vintage toy stores and this place is the largest. Check it out if you’re in the area and want to take a stroll down memory lane?

First Review for 2016:
Just visited twice in 2 – 3 weeks. By far my favorite comic book shop in the Seattle-​area. Easily the largest comic book shop as well, walking in and just admiring the set up is great. The staff is very friendly. Selection is also very, very good. I will say if you’re looking for Funko POPs this store carries more of the exclusives vs the «commons». So if you just want new releases you may want to look elsewhere, but if you’re looking for some older pieces, this is a great place to start.
As far as pricing, I will say that the pricing is very fair. For some of the older collectibles, everything is about what they sell for on eBay. That being said, it’s fair because you get to support a local business, see what you get, get it immediately, and not pay more than you would have paid on eBay. However, for the same reason if it’s say a new release but sold out in stores, the same object may be marked up to eBay pricing. So if you’re patient and want to save some money, you may want to go hunting. If you’d rather buy the object now, it’s nice to buy it for the same price as as online (some cases cheaper or slightly more), get it immediately and not have to worry about shipping damage or perhaps a fake coming from China.
Lastly, trade value is very fair as well. I was expecting to receive car dealership type trade in value for some of my collectibles, but it was FMV. I appreciate that a lot.
Anyway love this store, can’t wait to visit it again. Just wish it was a little closer to where I live. If you’re into anything comic book related and live in the Seattle-​area. Boba Kahn is definitely worth a drop in. Especially for SW or Funko collectibles.

This is like a playground for adults that are into comics, games, pop culture goodies — especially if you’re a 80s-​90s kid. The store is huge and full of games, comics, collectibles, figurines, etc. They stay up to date with the latest releases and also have ton of old school stuff that I have no idea how they got their hands on. The folks that work here are also really friendly and down to earth. Love everything about this place. Every time we visit, we end up leaving with something (…definitely a bad impulse habit. d’oh).

Easily the most fun place to visit around here for collectibles and pop culture goodies. I love seeing the vintage stuff from my childhood, as well as newer releases. This new location is very well organized and clean, and not creepy at all like a lot of places that sell collectibles. Nice variety of vintage and modern stuff. I hope it sticks around forever!!!
The prices are reasonable, which encourages people to come back. It’s refreshing to find a place like BobaKhan! Worth visiting for sure.

Stopped in for a visit while out on a road trip, and can happily report that BobaKhan was an exceptional collectible toy store. Clean, well-​lighted, intelligently organized, and clutter-​free (unlike most vintage/​collectible specialty stores). The place has the sort of professional layout and staff that you’d expect to find in a national chain-​type boutique storefront, but with an awe-​inspiring deep selection of good-​to-​excellent-​condition vintage toys. And – here’s the best part – everything seemed to be priced realistically to sell.
They have vintage carded Star Wars (REAL vintage: 1977 – 1985; the broadest brick-​and-​mortar carded selection I’ve ever seen) GI Joe, Visionaries, MASK, Cops-​n-​Crooks, Super Powers, Secret Wars, Thundercats, Transformers, Go-​Bots, He-​man, Star Trek (I saw Mego, Galoob, Toybiz, & Diamond Select), and a whole bunch more stuff I don’t know anything about.
Excellent, warm-​but-​not-​creepy customer service, too. Not aloof or snotty or weird, as is so customary in toy shops.
You can’t lose!

Love this place! The owner and staff are knowledgeable, friendly and helpful The prices are great, too. We love Transformers (new and older), My Little Pony, Legos, Star Trek, Barbies, etc. They have all this and much, much more. We have purchased many, many, many (gulp) awesome things here:) My brother-​in-​law was here from L.A. and found a game console for a fabulous price over the holidays. We do the majority of our collectible shopping here — even though we live 40 minutes away. Love it!

Today the kiddo and I stopped by for BobaKhan’s grand opening. We only realized that they had relocated after stopping at their original site two weeks ago and made a note to self to return.
As usual, the kiddo went nuts over the Star Wars, Halo, and retro game items. I even saw a metal lunchbox from my youth, now worth $ 40! We ended up with T shirts, Star Wars and Halo figures, and even a mini Godzilla.
Friendly and welcoming staff! Excellent store layout which enables all of their cool merch and collectibles to be displayed. We left before the cosplay folks were to arrive for the grand opening celebration. Bummer — it would have been like being at a mini-​con.

Holy childhood dreams. I finally had a chance to stop into their new location over the weekend. Only thing I am mad about is that I didn’t do it sooner when they were located 5 mins from my house.
This is what 80’s-90’s childhood dreams are made of. I stepped right back into being 8 again. So many GI Joe, ninja turtles, my little pony amazing dreams rolled into one shop.
They also carry old video games, lunch boxes, glassware, the new pop figures etc.
They were super nice when I came in and when I needed a glass out of the case. The guy was very friendly and helpful.
Can’t wait to make more purchases from here.

This place is AMAZING! The store is huge! So many pop figures, collectables, games and comics! I’m so glad they moved to the south side of Everett! All the employees are really friendly too!

Went to BobaKhan while on my trip to Washington, and I have to say that this is the best toy collectible store I’ve been in during this trip. My boyfriend and I both found toys that we really liked. They have a cool collection of legos, new and old. They have lots of 90’s game consoles which is awesome! The pop vinyls they carry are great and they have lots of Star Wars toys. We’ll definitely be coming back here the next time we make a trip up to WA.

If you could pack and sell nostalgia then this would be it. Walking into this store is like walking into my childhood. It’s hard to tell I’m a grown ass man while I walk around ogling toys.
This place has a great selection of old toys, games, comics and a lot of current geek culture memorabilia. They have everything from the new funko pop figures and current run statues to the very vintage and rare japanese transformers. The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable and more than happy to help you if you want something particular. They just moved locations and the new store has more room and much better parking situation.
I love this store and am excited to have this physical link to my childhood that I can share with the younger generation of my family.

Really cool store! I have been visiting BobaKhan for a couple years now at least.
They have an eclectic collection of toys from various eras and brands. I’ve literally never found a toy/​collectible store like this. They have toys from numerous «universes» including DC, Marvel, Star Wars, G.I. Joe, Voltron, Aliens, Dr. Who, and Lego.
Well worth a trip inside if you have kids or enjoy seeing classic toys from the 70s, 80s, and 90s. They also stock many of the various reboots and newly remastered lines released more recently.
If you’re looking for a different experience than Toys R Us, check out BobaKhan.

I can not say enough about how much I love this store! They have such an eclectic inventory, there is always something new and fun to look at. The staff is super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Great place to bring kids of all ages.

This place has a lot of stuff that will keep toy/​comic book geeks happy, especially those from the 80’s. I go for the Star Wars stuff and they have a lot of loose figures as well as carded which of course are a lot more expensive. These specialty stores are never cheap, but Bobakhan is certainly not the worst I have seen when it comes to their prices
One complaint I have is that the service can be bad depending on who is there when you go. I drove 30 miles to go this store today with the goal of buying a few loose Star Wars figures, which are kept behind a glass case. I told two people who work there I wanted to buy a few of the figures and they said they would go get the key. 5 minutes later I noticed both employees were up front talking to other customers so I asked another employee for help. Eventually someone came over with a huge set of keys and said he wasn’t sure which was the correct key because the owner had taken the regular set to a lego convention in another state. Not sure why the owner would take a set of store keys out of state, but hey, we all make mistakes.
After 10 minutes this employee had no success and went back to the front of the store to presumably look for another set of keys. at this point I walked up front and said I would just come back another time. all 3 employees, without even turning to look at me, said, «ok.» Not the end of the world, but I was shocked that they didn’t at least apologize to me considering I had waited for over ten minutes. apparently business is so good that they can afford to turn customers away.
so if you don’t live close by you might be taking a risk showing up as you can certainly look, but depending on who is working there you might not actually be able to buy. I will probably go back again, but if there is a figure I really want I am just going to save myself the trip and order online

Excellent! New Legos; old Legos.
Better than the Lego Store! And you are supporting a locally owned business! We will shop here from now on for toys and Legos and hot wheels! They even sell mini Lego figures standalone including old ones that you can’t find anymore!

I was introduced to BobaKhan earlier this year by my best friend Ben. This place is a geeks/​toy lovers paradise! They have everything from vintage 70’s/80’s toys to new stuff. BobaKhan takes in trades of older toys but please make sure they are in very good to mint condition! The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly and vastly knowledgable.
Prices are competitive with the big box stores. Certain vintage toys can run you a bit of money but that just depends on what your searching for. I live in Bellingham but have no trouble doing the 60 mile commute to come here because this store is that awesome! I also feel very good about supporting local business and helping out great people :-)
Whether you have kids or are just a kid at heart like myself, then you will find your toy heaven at BobaKhan Toys! They are also very easy to find just off I-​5

Great selection of new and vintage toys, and the owners are extremely friendly! The Pacific Northwest is lucky to have a store like BobaKhan. Many places across the country only have eBay as a source of quality vintage toys, but this place has a great selection. Star Wars, Transformers, G.I. Joe, M.A.S.K, Silver Hawks, Barbie, Masters of the Universe, Thundercats –you name it, they have it!
Prices are by the book, you won’t find any garage sale steals, but you won’t over-​pay for anything either.
What sets BobaKhan apart from the other toy stores in the area is their customer service. Great owners who make you feel welcome and a staff that consists of collectors and enthusiasts like myself.
Highly recommend!

I cannot believe, that with all this great technology, that Unilocal doesn’t already know about BobaKhan! This is an independent business located in the downtown area of Everett. The sell so much more than cool toys. They are more of a collectibles/​action figures/​movie memorabilia type of shop as well. They are also online at
. I’ve come in here to pursue through their offerings in their retail location. They have a whole lot of action figures, so it is definitely worth looking at if you are in the market for things like that. It’s also a definite stop for any awesome holiday gift ideas.
The thing I liked most about BobaKhan? They carry a few Vintage My Little Ponies. That is something I collect, and I was happy to see they had some! *lessthanthree*. They also carry the new school MLP as well. :-)
