Forbidden Planet is like Mecca for anyone who loves pop culture. Everyone can find something they like here - from collectibles, figurines, posters, and clothes to all kinds of fun little bits and bobs. There’s a huge book section downstairs offering a wide range of books, comics, and video game walkthroughs. It’s a truly amazing place that I love coming back to every time.

Cool store, amazing selection of items from funko pops, keychains, acrylic stands, figurines of all sizes and many, many more stuff. I do recommend it highly for people with a range of interests from marvel to anime. Came here for the Zoro figurine, as a Zoro fan. Lots of one piece items, though I wish there were more. XD, anyway, Really good store!

Fantastic selection of cult comic books, magazines, Warhammer merchandise, memorabilia. The shop has a massive selection over two floors. Gets very busy at the weekends, but located in a very central location in London. Good transport links to get to the store.
