The merch was reasonable for their price, and some were really cheap! I only had a few hours though and I had to go to other places so we had to rush.

If I can, I would definitely go there again!! For anyone reading this until the end, thanks for reading, have fun, and I recommend having a pretty big budget if you...

The thing I hated most was that over half of the displays were playing their own soundtrack or movie. This place gave me a headache just from the noise pollution, and I am not prone to that. Personally I far prefer going to the internet to order...
