Plastic Chapel

Had to check this place out while I was in Denver and I’m glad I did. It’s a charming store with a nice selection of designer vinyl toys and blind boxes. I personally found it amusing that they seem to have more Kid Robot toys than the actual Kid Robot store in Boulder.

Best Shop in Denver if your looking for designer vinyl toys its the one stop shop to get all the latest and greatest vinyl figures.

Toys are nonessential items still right? Why is it whenever I go to PC, I have to have about $ 30 – 50 worth of tiny plastic? I love this store and the staff couldn’t be nicer. Totally fun place in a great neighborhood! Check it out.

Love collecting designer vinyl toys? Then you have got to get to Plastic Chapel ASAP! Such a cool, fun place to visit to get your fix of blind box toys. They have trading and new release events as well as art shows, too.
Nothing is more fun than the anticipation of opening a blind box to see if there is a rare, little art piece inside! The kids and I love to add to our collection of 3 in. figures, keychains and zipper pulls. Best of all, if you open the box to find a toy you already have, you can trade it for any of the toys in already opened boxes (in the same series)!
This is our favorite spot to visit after a trip to the zoo or museum. Our kids’ friends are always amazed at the variety of cuteness to be found here. Be sure to stop for a cupcake at The Shoppe a couple doors down.

Dee with the bees is awesome… best and most interesting place in Denver. L.A. had a few shops along these lines, but still not as cool. Terrific art shows there regularly and cupcakes next door…

This is my favorite guilty pleasure store. Locally owned Super Fun eye candy. I would seriously spend all of my $$$ here, but a girl has to eat right? If your a lover of Vinyl Toys and have not sought out this Gem you really need to get on it. VIVA PLASTIC CHAPEL!

CamStar rating of Bonanza!
This is the best toy store in Denver!
I have developed an addiction for awesome little action figures and big ones that I had to save up for and hope that it wasn’t going to be gone on Friday’s payday :)
The blind box toys are fun and you can trade them! The Chapel has great events all year long with local and national artists showing in their gallery or doing a meet and greet and showing off the new goods!
Stop by and take a look there is something for everyone… I even found something for my mom. It’s now on her desk at work.

I shake my head at myself when I realize I have lived down the street for almost a year and never came in to this store til the East Colfax block party on the fourth! If I had a ton of disposable income at my fingertips, I swear, I’d buy kid robot toys, munnys, and whatever other cute toys they have for sale here. I’m a sucker for all these things, and a lot of times you don’t know what you’re gonna get-​kind of like buying a deck of baseball cards back in the day.
They also have some cool art from local artists for sale.
I promise, once I’m employed again, I will be back so I can decorate my place with all things from Plastic Chapel.

Their trading policy is amazing and should attract the occasional/​rare urban vinyl buyers to come in as well. As stated in some other reviews, their policy entails that you are able to open kidrobot toys from specific sets and if you don’t like the one you get, simply trade it in for one that’s already open from the same set, more than reasonable I think.
These designer toys are really eye catching and it’s hard not to be charmed by absolutely everything in the store. The displays are done perfectly and the view from the window is just enough to spark your curiosity to step right in.

Vinyl some? YES! I have been collecting vinyl toys since I left the east coast last year and found this little treasure right next to THE SHOPPE (cupcake shop). They have a fairly good amount of vinyl there anywhere from mini’s to hong kong collector series, to munnys and dunnys and so much more. You can even purchase art from local artists there!
The big thing that draws be back to this specific spot is, when you get a duplicate toy, you can come in and exchange it for another open box item that you might not already have! That’s a winner in my book!

If you spend more time looking at the toys in Twist N’ Shout than you do at the music, this is the shop for you! Though far from large, The Plastic Chapel holds a good many collectible toys. Most things are priced in the $ 14.99 — $ 24.99 range though I did spy a few keychains for less than $ 10.
Great for a quick little shopping trip or for a gift for your favorite geek who never removes their toys from the original packaging.

I used to go to this place a lot when it was located next door to Strelka by South Broadway. It would rain and they would cover all the toys in sheeting so they wouldn’t get wet, which kind of made you feel like you were also packaged inside of a toy box. The newer location is much bigger and nicer, and is located next to a cupcake and cereal store, which blew my mind. The toy selection is great, in my opinion just as good as the Kid Robot on Haight Street, albeit without the über-​hipster employees. The owner is usually there and is extremely nice and funny, which makes shopping a pleasure. They have design contests and art shows, and often collaborate with their neighbors at the Fabric Lab to put on cool art displays.

If you like Juxtapoz, you’ll like this place. I go here for gifts, interesting art shows, fashion shows, block parties… They play nice with their neighbors (it’s a nice little Colfax family). There is quite a subculture of people who love this stuff. Some of their toys are blank — for you to decorate yourself (I got a wooden one!). One time they gave me a brown paper bag and some markers to decorate it for my art geek friend’s birthday gift.

Great selection, unique toys, Gabba Gabba, great inspiration.

I tripped upon this place when I was headed to The Shoppe for cupcakes… and was so happy! I’m a toy nerd, so it was great to find this jem on Colfax.
It’s a somewhat small store, but definitely a decent selection. They had a couple of the Tokidoki toys I’ve been looking for, as well as a selection of Kid Robot, some of the Cartoon Network toys, and a whole lot of awesome. The woman that checked me out (haha, not in that way!) was incredibly nice.
I would definitely go back here again on a return trip.

Kid in a candy store.
I hate going here…(all lies)
I never have enough money to buy all the toys I want.
I love the selection of truely wonderful and imaginative goodies.
I am addicted to «Things That Hurt» zipper pulls. I want them all.
There are also some awesome art shows here which I try my hardest to avoid (more lies) because of the need for more cool stuff to surround me.
I am however sad that the moved from their Broadway location to their new bigger Colfax local only because I work closer to the old location.
Then again it’s probably a good thing!
Tee Hee!

I love wandering around Plastic Chapel because I honestly have no idea what half of the toys are or how/​if you can play with them. That doesn’t make everything in there any less adorable to me though.
They sell lots of unique, kitschy toys like Yo Gabba Gabba and Kid Robot stuff as the other reviews have mentioned and often times they have toy design/​decorating competitions. Plus it’s in the awesome strip along Colfax that houses The Shoppe and the Fabric Lab among other great locally owned stores.

If you’re looking for a one-​of-​a-​kind store, you have to visit Plastic Chapel. First things first — it moved! It’s now just down the street from Tattered Cover on Colfax (opposite side of the street).
The Plastic Chapel has the goofiest little toys you can imagine. There are replicas of the Gorillaz cartoons, an abundance of Yo Gabba Gabba characters, Ugly Dolls (!!!), Kid Robot, you name it.
It’s teeny tiny, so don’t expect to browse for more the 10 – 15 minutes, tops. You can find a great, unique white elephant or secret Santa gift here. Whatever you buy is going to be next to impossible to find elsewhere, that’s for sure. It’s a fun place and the folks who work their know their stuff.

Plastic Chapel Designer Toys contains those oh-​so-​popular Designer Toys, all the rage with kids these days – made of vinyl, Toys that you can collect to show of your kooolness or other Toys that you can purchase blank and decorate yourself!
Sometimes certain stories even have contests for these type of decorations.

Yes, the space is small, but that’s okay. What really gets me is the colors. Plastic Chapel is tucked away off the beaten path of flaming south Broadway but you may glimpse it even from afar based on popping oranges and greens that stand out against the gray and polluted sky scape.
Check out Plastic Chapel; buy some designer toys for your ex-​raver friends who are trying to wean themselves from ecstasy and the damage is still so great – all they need is a Designer Toy.

‘That really freaked me out. What’s that thing when dudes have sex with big stuffed animals?’
‘Plushies?
Yeah, I think we found one.‘
My boyfriend and I had never been to Plastic Chapel, the TINY store that sells over 500 designer vinyl toys (read: Japanese collectibles.) Everything is housed in a plastic cube, I guess which is why it’s called ‘Plastic Chapel’ because I suppose it is a shrine of sorts to these odd, plastic people.
Not sure why they have this store in Denver. Can it really do that well? It’s been open for 2 years so I guess it’s true. It’s the kind of store that you walk into and are freaked out about (yes and yes). Or a place you go to and wonder how you’d be if you got über into collecting. In short, if you like freaky plastic cubes filled with expensive little toys… this is definitely the place for you.
If I had had $ 3 cash, I would have bought a little ice cream zipper pull for my retro, baby-​blue cardigan. But alas, I too wield only the plastic, much like this little, freaky church where you may wonder to yourself… what exactly happens when the guy leaves the store? Do the plastic people come to life??? And yes, 5 stars because it’s BIZARRE and I do recommend that you check it out. It’s adjacent to Fancy Tiger which is next to Sputnik on Broadway.
