Amazing collection of old and new Sci fi, horror, super hero and generally geeky stuff that I love, could have spent all day there!

Had both retro and current toys on two floors! How cool is that?! Friendly and helpful staff. They also offer to buy your old toys.

This is a great store and i am glad to see them thriving and expanding, we need more stores like this in Essex that sell vintage and modern collectibles. You can spend hours browsing the store and its heaving on a weekend or bank holiday. If you visit the store regularly you may also strike gold if some rare items or a collection has recently been traded in, staff are also friendly. I have picked up a variety of items from vintage games, toys, posters, modern stuff, they have it all. On the constructive criticism front (Sorry guys) i would say the store lighting needs improving, especially around the vintage cabinets and PC / console game area, it can be very dark and access to items often blocked (Eg the C64 / Speccy tape area). I also tend to find its hard to spot the prices on cabinet items as prices put under the figures base or hidden from view as stacked on top. Prices tend to be inline with ebay for the most part. I would love to see the shop take some tips from the USA sellers and put loose vintage figures in cardboard topped baggies priced up on pegs to easily browse rather then bins. I hope Nerdbase take the feedback onboard, they are sooo close to being amazing, just needs a few tweaks.
