Retro Emporium Kent

Times are hard. If ya need a new belt to cinch, ours are now half off!

There's just *something* about grabbing your bestie and raiding the vending machines 🥰
Something else you can't/won't find "online"

Is "Throwback Thursday" considered retro now? 🤔🤣 Time seems to fly so much faster these days.

A reminder about Pokemon League this Friday!
Come and play!

Barbies and Trolls are back!

Show of hands from those who would savagely just take a bite out of the side!

Hope your Tuesday is... SUPER FLY

Finally found printed copies of South Sound Business at Barnes & Noble (Federal Way) AND... Greg Smith found (and signed) 3 copies of his book!

Back in April we had the pleasure of hosting Melanie Kohn (voice of Lucy), and helped to facilitate an interview with her and a local youtuber. Please watch and enjoy! (Link in comments)

So excited to have SEALUG back at this year's Kent Nerd Party! The event has changed up a bit due to the relocation of but that just means MORE FUN is in store for you! See you JUNE 1st!

(Lego display will be at Big Wu Fitness, located at 404 W. Meeker St.)

Dads & Grads Month is coming up!
(Some new Lucy & Me Bears have arrived!)

Ballin'on a Budget? (Who isn't these days?)
Pick up a Movie, a couple of sodas and a handful of candy for less than $5! Or cash out that $5 bill for quarters and go crazy on our vending machines! Either way, good times can be had here at the Retro Emporium 😉

We've gone through a lot of changes since we first opened.🤣This picture was from when we switched (the now Record Room) over from an arcade to a "mom & pop" video store...

Ooh. Shiny Plastic 😉
A handful of sealed videogames have arrived!
We may not have biggest collection in town, but what we lack in quantity we make up for in QUALITY (and fair pricing!)

Who remembers Penny???

Let's see how long THIS re-stock lasts! 🤣
(4 boxes!)

Who saw the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles TOUR?

Hey y'all! Take a selfie with one of our new signs and tag/mention us for 10% off your next purchase! Offer valid through May 31st (one time use only)

The advantage to being an official store
is being able to sell the new set before the release date!
Come and get your !!

Who wants to workout with Barbie?

Found some old business cards going through storage yesterday....

People alway ask if we sell online (we don't) but and are blown away to find out that's how Anne started her business...in 2008 on Etsy (when it was an uncorrupted & viable platform) She then started doing shows and conventions until she took the biggest risk of her life in 2019 and opened a brick and mortar storefront (with a ton of support and encouragement from husband Greg). Alot of people thought we were going "backwards" (going from online to a brick and mortar) and found it (and still find it) hard to believe that we are successful WITHOUT an online shop!

If only I'd known these wrappers were going to be worth something... before I cut and decoupaged them onto useless light switch covers (upcycle project circa 2015) 🤷‍♀️🤣🫣😢
