The gas cap has the store name called ‘Pull & Bear’. Unusual name for a shoe store.

These may not be cars but the apparel will appeal to some.

First time I’ve seen this brand called Teama with their Haulers and other generic brand.

More Teama branded cars. The scale seems to fit the O scale train sets.

The price on this 1/18 scale race car is cheaper than a Tomica Premium. Say what? Yup probably another generic China brand car. Here’s the thing. It’s pretty light so it is probably made of plastic but looks more like a model instead of a toy and comes with some racing accessories.

And of course a nice small selection of Tomicas.

Ok let’s take a break for some food.

Noodles and Xiao Long Bao, also called a “soup dumpling” because the bun are filled with hot soup and place on top of a bamboo steaming basket from Din Tai Fung, a Michelin awarded restaurant, not the tire brand, ok.

Now on to the next toy store. This is a much bigger Toy Kingdom store in a bigger mall.
