sensory hour - new times
Perhaps you want to visit or bring your child to our shop but you’re concerned about sensory input and risk of meltdown. Well, now you needn’t worry because we have introduced two sensory hours: one on Mondays at 10am & the other on Fridays at 7pm.
Imagine a whole hour in a relatively quiet zone, with the arcades muted, the radio off, think library silence rules, and no flashing lights, plus the shops are manned at the door to manage customer levels and most importantly our staff are very kind.
There’s no need to book, and if those hour slots aren’t suitable then you can book out of hours by appointment.
Why have we done this at Toy Planet? Because one of the Directors has a family member with hyper sensory difficulties. Additionally, he has 30 years’ experience at Scouts working with neurodivergent and disabled children. Neurodiverse & disabled people want the same things as neurotypical and abled people - to enjoy themselves in a shop like ours. We believe that nobody – children and adults alike - should be excluded from enjoying themselves in our shop so we want to offer a quiet and calm environment to ensure no one misses out.

"Really impressed with the shop, we went in with a very specific Lego request (Master Wu - Ninjago). They didn't have one in stock but went out of their way to help us build one from the various Lego part. I also really appreciated that they took the time to chat to my kids and engage with my son over his enjoyment of Spiderman. "
"Love this shop. Would travel for miles to go there, but thankfully it's just on my doorstep. Owner is friendly and helpful and stock is top quality. Always something new to see even for regulars. Highly recommend stopping by."
"Man I absolutley love this shop I bought a new Sega MegaDrive game from here this morning and I love how this game is still good after all this time I would visit again hopefully to buy a new console anyway thanks alot 👍"
"As a massive STAR WARS and general superhero fan this shop is a must visit!! They have everything from figurine's, collectables, Lego, comics and much more! The Gentleman in charge will always introduce himself and help you in anyway he can without being pushy. My family love visiting this shop!"
"Great shop with loads of varied stock. All sorts of modern and vintage collectables (including Pops, comics, figures, Star Wars, signed pieces, puzzles, Lego etc etc). There is a large console retro gaming section covering many systems (my favourite!). Lots of games and usually quite a bit of hardware for sale, many which is boxed! Also a good selection of controllers for sale. Prices are very reasonable. The owner Steve is very friendly and up for a chat. They also have a very cool custom Lego model of the shop, along with other nice Lego models in the window"
"I visited the store for the first time today with my son and was really impressed. My son was VERY excited particularly with the individually sold Pokemon cards. The staff are super friendly and very helpful, creating a lovely welcoming ambience in-store. The store itself is like an Aladdin's cave with a great range of products. There's also a Lego station and a very cool little arcade area which can be hired for parties!. We will certainly be returning as we had a lovely experience."
