An amazing little retro / nostalgia shop for Gen-X and all those who appreciate the 60s, 70s and 80s.

A fantastic representation of local business owners embracing personal passion and customer service excellence! It's always a pleasure and honor to stop in and say 'hi' or browse new to the store inventory. Where nostalgia, once again, meets passion and value.

Words cannot describe how amazing that place is. Living in St Catharines and going to Hamilton can be tricky for me not being a driver. But I have several friends who love retro figurines I have several friends who love video games and I have several friends who love Lego and you have all of it I loved your prices I love the amazing amount of things you had in there. I will definitely be trying to come back before Christmas rolls around. You have an amazing store thank you for the Biker Mice from Mars playset it will look while sitting across from my incomplete Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles playset

Delays with shipping - not the fault of the vendor - goods safely received and were just right. Another happy customer.

Expansive selection of Toys and Video games. As a kid who grew up in the late 80s early 90s this place has literally every toy and video game I owned or dreamed of owning. You can tell the guys there are super passionate about their work. Definitely a spot to check if you are a collector of games, toys, video games, comic books and more.

Cool Store, lots of selection. Biggest knock would be most of what they are selling: video games, action figures, toys are priced to the top and higher then the online “value” whether your referencing Price charting or ebay. So its hard to find a deal hear but its not the first brick and mortar collectors store ive seen doing that.they do got bills to pay. Besides that ive bin in here multiple times and I usually leave with something cool.

I often pop by Retrosaurus to see what cool items they may have in store and I am always pleased by their selection and the service they provide. I am always welcomed with friendly service and great conversation from fellow collectors who offer very reasonable pricing. I look forward to my next visit to Retrosaurus!

Great selection. Terrible owner!
Shop has boxes full of overstock just sitting around waiting to be tripped over.
Owner has terrible customer service, no people skills and is very rude.
Also some games are severely over priced as I'm assuming they haven't updated prices in a while because there's a good chance that was possibly the price on the market at a point but noy currently. Very reluctant to return.

A great shop, fair prices buying or selling. My thing is vintage video games but they have a huge selection of vintage toys. It’s worth the drive to Hamilton.

I have been to Retrosaurus a dozen times. I have always found prices to be fair purchasing and selling items. I love taking my family there and the kids love the retro game setup at the front. The owners are always friendly and welcoming. Awesome place.

Always fun to visit Jeff at his shop. You never know what you'll find! I've bought a number of items here and will continue to visit!

Really clean, organized store and pricing is reasonable. Brought my daughter with me and she wanted to buy everything there. Ended up grabbing three PS3 games for 10 bucks each. One of them was 90 bucks on Amazon so big score for us. Going back again this weekend.

I have purchased many consoles, games and transformers from retrosaurus. Jeff and the other dude (forgot his name) have been helpful and great people to talk to. Prices are reasonable and products are quality. Deserving of a 5 star

Awesome store run by awesome guys. The inventory is always changing so it's worth popping into every now and then. If I could give it 6 stars I would. See you soon!
22 November 2022 23:46
Great local store. Our city needs more independent sellers that love the product as much as Jeff does. He’s not just in it for the money. He loves what he does.

Great store of vintage toys and video games. My husband and I like to stop by whenever we're in Hamilton. I've purchased a few things from them over the years (including a hard to find complete Netossa figure from the POP line) and their pricing has always been very fair! Both owners are super nice guys, definitely stop by if you're in the area!

My son has Autism and they treat him so well. They go above and beyond to help him with his Nintendo collection of Mario stuff and gaming consoles. This is are go to place for anything we are looking for!
10 November 2022 19:43
The store always has some of the coolest stuff around. The prices are fair. Unlike some other stores the owner is cool with negotiating on the price of items. Nice guy and he's always been cool to my kid.
31 October 2022 20:09
A lot of his game prices are over priced, you can find most games for cheaper on eBay and it’ll get delivered to your house at a lower cost then shopping here! I had asked the owner to price match with eBay and he just told me to shop at eBay

Stumbled into this place while at a Podcasting meetup. Amazing collection of stuff, and the owner was super fun to chat with. Bought a couple of figures, but will definitely be going back next time I'm in the city.

Love stopping in this store! Lots of neat things to see and a good place to find a nostalgic gift. Guy there was super helpful when trying to decide just what Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle figurine would be the best fit for a Father’s Day gift.

I have been to Retrosaurus a few times and have always been amazed at the huge selection of toys and video games. Always brings back memories from childhood. Jeff really knows his stuff and everyone I've met in the store has always been friendly and personable. Very happy with the purchases I've made.
22 October 2022 18:54
Very pleasant guys too deal with. I found their prices better than ebay and since I shop in person I don't have to pay for shipping.
21 October 2022 3:31
I can't say enough good things about this store, I'm a long time customer and I've never left empty handed or disappointed. The guys are very friendly and enjoy a chat, they also have very reasonable prices. Go check it out, you will like it

Really like the newish location. A lot bigger and brighter than it used to be. Great service and friendly store attendant. Awesome assortment of games and collectables.

A new friend I met from Canada (Im in the US) knew I collect vintage handheld games, lives near this place and posted to me a couple of photos and they had two items that I wanted.

They accommodate my request and shipped it to me direct!

Looking forward to one day visiting this place!

Been calling this store for 3 days to inquire about something to save myself a potential trip. No answer, no returned phone call. I'm going to assume you guys don't like making money.
07 May 2022 19:23
Great new location, love the new setup there, great staff and fair prices, if you are older gen game collector this is the place to check out.x5
Thanks again.

One of the best vintage toy shops I've been to. Friendly staff and very good prices. Highly recommended
10 January 2022 22:00
I sold them a bunch of my childhood toys. They were awesome, and kind, and promised to find good homes for what they could resell. Their purchase prices are fair, their selling prices are reasonable. All and all, I would strongly recommend them to sellers and collectors alike!

Jeff and Gabe are nice and easy to strike up a conversation with! The store also has a varied selection of classic toys and video games. There's a good chance you'll never leave empty handed once you enter.
30 July 2021 21:05
A great toy store, with lots of rare and hard to find toys, for great deals. I do not live in Canada, so I haven't been able to go to the store in person, but they are accommodating with doing orders online and shipping the items to me. Everything comes quickly and packaged properly.
25 July 2021 18:49
Love this store! Hoping I can get back in the minute things open up again. The staff is amazing and the prices/items here are awesome.
25 July 2021 3:24
I wish i was closer to this store, however i was able to make some purchases online on their Facebook page. Service was amazing, and the shipping was extremely fast. Great pricing and customer service. Will definitely buy again.
03 July 2021 11:16
Love it. I went to buy all 1990 ninja turtles figures collection and he didn't have leonardo on the shelves I told he have it I would buy it and he went at the back and check if he has it and he did. I was so happy to get all of them. I hope he getting the new collection I really want April o'Neil.
