Fear Finds - Munky King
FEARnet's Angie Greenup visits LA's Munky King, the "Designer Toy Temple" and speaks with buyer Lauren Byrnes about the store's cute, creepy and just plain off-the-wall offerings.
In 2003, Patrick and Chanda Lam opened the first designer toy store in Southern California, a quaint little shop in Chinatown Los Angeles. Munky King now has its flagship store on Melrose Avenue showcasing toys, original art, prints. plush, mini figures, art books, and apparel from the designer toy culture.
