Pop Monster


24416 Crenshaw Blvd
Torrance, CA 90505
Pop Monster is a bastion of vinyl and cool toys to check out in Torrance. Torrance has a definite Japanese cultural identity and Pop Monster imports the goods from Japan. You can get lost with all the different imports, toys, figures, art books, prints, clothes and wacky gadgets. It's got something for anyone into Otaku or Japanese culture. It might be the only place in Torrance to go for such goods.

What got me were some blood type blood bag key ring charms. I could wander the place for an hour checking out the stock. BTW the stock changes and Pop Monster keeps on top of what cool new products are coming out to get . Friendly service and a nice layout allow for anyone to find the special item they wouldn't be able to find anywhere else in LA.

Parking was okay, but if the lot fills up street parking will be hard because it's a very busy street. Plent of places to eat nearby make it a nice place to go on break.
