I just want to let people know about this place. They do not have itemized receipt. So if you buy more than one items, it will show up as one item on the receipt. That means you have to go off the price sticker on the item to know how much each items cost. Then do your own calculation to make sure they charge you correctly. Last October, they over charged me on a statue ($50 more than the sticker price). Of course, it wasn't itemized so I didn't realize the error until I got home and added up the items from the price stickers. Also, you can't go off the sticker if there's a discount applied. Discount will be different for whatever the deal/offer at the time of purchase. This will make it difficult to figure out the real price you paid for the item. They also do not have bags that can hold more than a few comic books. Yet they sell collectibles like large Hot Toys and statues. Which will not fit into their bags. Just today, the associate told me when I checked out that he's not able to give me a copy of the printed receipt. This has never been an issue before. They've always given me a copy of the receipt in the past. He said I would have to create an account and it would be sent to my email on the account. However, since I don't want an account due to privacy reasons he said he can't set up an email after the fact. So I'm left with items I purchased and no receipt. After standing there with no solution from the associate, I asked if I could take a picture of the receipt that I signed. He agreed and gave me the receipt to take a picture of. This should not be how things are done. I swear if he had mentioned this up front needing to create an account in order to get a receipt for my purchases I would have left the store and never come back. If this is indeed a new policy then it needs to be put on the front door and on this location's online portal. I don't think it's a policy change and just this associate not knowing or misinterpreting whatever he was told by management. I've shopped here before in the past and never had trouble getting a copy of the receipt. If it happens again, I will not be coming back. Anyway, I highly recommend the Haltom City location. Their receipts are itemized and they give you a copy of it with your purchase. They also have large bags for your statues and larger collectibles. UPDATE: Thanks for the response! I have adjusted my original rating.

This has quickly become my favorite spot for comics and games. Though the selection compared to other venues that I frequent, is smaller, both the proximity to my house and the atmosphere of the store are delightful. The people who run the shop are friendly and seem knowledgeable of all things absolute nerd, but I suspect they may not be entirely human. Not that I'm an expert on alien life by any means, I have my suspicions that their leader may be from another planet. Unlike my other weekend hangout, the nerd-king's here don't look at me with disgust and distain as I browse the 5th ed modules and board games. Should you need information, a friendly neighborhood fellow weeb is never more than a whistle away to give you all the dirt on the latest comics, figurines, and board games about to come out. Anything you can't find physically in the store can be placed on order for you. And, sure, you can do that at home. But you won’t earn bonus points toward future purchases and other goodies with the Collected Rewards program that they run. Also, you would miss out on all the fun of getting to socialize with others out in the wild if that's your thing. They have some pretty big game table areas set up where in theory you could play some games with your friends, but the section is a little cramped. I imagine if they had just a little more frequent interest it might be worth their time to do something about this. But if other nerds are anything like me, going outside and trying to play games in front of other humans is a terrifying idea. All in all, it's a great store that frequently had good sales and deals to go along with their cheery dispositions. Highly recommend.

NEAT comic shop. They have a lot of new stuff from new artist and a lot of older comics (from the 90s and maybe older but didn’t look for those). A wide variety of graphic novels. It’s has a very old school comic book shop feel which is cool. I also don’t mind they have a rewards point system (nice little add on to keep you coming back). Lee was VERY helpful and is really into their work and helping you find what you are looking for, very personable and I love that there’s an IG and the shop talks about what’s new. They offer a place to gather and play card games (not my jam, but thats cool they offer it). And one more little detail to the comic shopping experience is I got a news flyer about up and coming comics. Hardly any place does that anymore. Highly recommend this place for your nostalgic comic fix and hunting for any comics you are trying to find and just to check out a cool comic shop.

I can not say enough good things about Collected Your Pop Culture Headquarters. The location is convenient and easy to get to for us. This weekend they moved from one side of Blue Bonnet Circle to the other to a much larger location and we are excited at the transformation and the larger amount of stock they will be carrying. The staff is helpful and kind. Every time we go in we are greeted by name and advised of anything that they got in that we may find of interest. They have managed to find and order every weird game we have requested and have helped us grow our interests. The owners and staff continuously try to strengthen and grow the gaming community in this area and let people like us have the opportunity to meet new people with the same interests. If you haven't been to this store, do yourself a favor and get in your car and go. You won't be disappointed.

  • Cameron Gray Rike

Prices are reasonable for items and selection is usually great. If they do not have it, they can order it or ship it from one of the other stores. The layout of the store is logical and practical. This is a great place to buy stuff but even more than that, the community is amazing. It is a very inclusive, friendly group of people. I enjoy the Thursday night board game crowd and the Friday night magic group is good too (although I'll admit I haven't gone to that one in a while due to my schedule.) The other events hosted here are almost always great. From comics to games to children's section to books to mini figures to collectables, Collected truly does have something for everyone.

  • Jason Monholland

Really cool comic shop. Buncha comics and collectibles, but few toys. Anywhoo, would love to give a better review, but went in to buy some back issues on a weekday morning, and the clerk took over 25 minutes to price about 5x comics. He kept stopping to help other people instead of finishing our transaction. Never did finish it. Finally, we just left to another place as it seemed they were in no hurry to help us. Tldr, good selection of comics and back issues, and great music selections, but either needs more help or more focus on present customers. 5/7 would not recommend buying stuff needing pricing.

  • Logan Pettijohn

This store is very well stocked and keeps up with Pop Culture, one would think it would be just comics but there was everything I could think of. From Anime figures to Comics, to Minis, everything pop culture can be found here. The staff was very nice and shopping felt very wholesome and familiar. Prices are very reasonable and competitive so you won't have to go elsewhere. Big props to Hayden for his exceptional customer service for making me feel welcome and having my shopping experience feel 10x better.

  • Matthew Carroll

Super! Nicest, most helpful staff. They are not selling stuff to you... they are only helping/wanting you find what you want, and they have most everything. I've been collecting for 40 years and been in many stores... this one is clean, organized and more than a fair outlet. Just visit once and you will want to go back. they have more than a one time stop will avail. Super staff.. Hayden, Mike, Ron... I probly got the names incorrect but its not as important as knowing thes guys are super. Try it once.

  • Congruentthree

I've been here several times. It's got a decent selection of a variety of things. They also have game days on Thursday where they do TTRPGs ( I haven't attended any so I can't say how good they are). There is a little bit of a mark up compared to some other places I've been too but it is minimal, and small businesses need to make some money so I'm perfectly fine with it. Iclve met two cashiers I think and both were very nice. Highly recommend checking it out.

  • Chris Fletcher

Pretty nice little place, if a bit small, but most shops like this are. Shelves are well organized from what I could tell. Wide range of products and friendly staff. The main reason I came in was for 40k/AoS, and while I made a purchase, I was disappointed to learn they didn’t offer any sort of discount on their Games Workshop products. It’s hard to justify buying there when I can go a bit further up the road to another shop and get 15% off.

  • Carly Kerlick

This place has a good selection of games, minis, and dice. Comics too! They have lots of room to play games. Everyone is really helpful and will order stuff for you if they don't have it. The only downside is the cigar shop next door. It smells really heavily of smoke, so it's hard to stay there for more than 15 minutes. Fort Worth city ordinance might have rules against that, so they might want to check that out if they want.

  • Martel

Fantastic staff! Always friendly and ready to assist. Wide variety of collections to be had. Did I say Pokémon!?! Comic Books Posters Fugurines POP! Magic and soo much more. There's even a few snacks for low blood sugar lol And that guy Ron, not too shabby . Tell them Misty says hi when you come in! D&D on Fridays and from what I hear a new location and Pokémon tournaments coming soon.....ish.

  • Steve “Blackbead” Sanders

A typical card and game shop made special by the customer service you get here. Plus they offer a LOT of special items. The one thing that hurt was the total lack of response I received when I dropped off a book for them to consider carrying in their shop. Crickets. I still recommend the place but I don't go there unless I am desperate for something.

  • Chris

Awesome staff here! Made me feel welcome and at ease. New to MTG game and was nervous about asking questions. Not only did the lady the desk help me find what I was looking for but gave me some free starter packs for me and my friend to play with. Very kind people, they will treat you well here. I will definitely be coming back!

  • C “Ct Winz” T

This place is great. A lot of variety to choose from. All of the employees are super friendly which is very welcomed. I don't consider myself very knowledgeable with comics, and they explain everything you need to know (drop dates, variants, etc.) in great detail and seem happy to do so. Love this place, is my go-to comic shop!

  • Eric Torrez

This place is so cool! We had our Pokemon Go PvP tournament here and the staff was super nice and helpful. We had a great turnout and were very pleased with the support they showed us. They also have a huge selection of really cool stuff and some of our players got to buy some neat collectible items! Thank you!

  • Alfredo Escobedo

Unbelievably overpriced. $150 for hollow ichigo chase? $75 for SE Sexy Jutsu, $75 for SE Tanjiro, $50 for GITD Kanao, and $30 for new demon slayer pops (Tanjiro with noodles, Love harshia, The sick dude who’s blind) staff was friendly- I’ll give them that. But anything worth something there is well over PPG.

  • Kathryne Porter

I came for a tournament that was posted on the website to start at 5:30. The shop worker let us know it wouldn’t start until 7:30 and she tried to scam us out of the three packs we get with a prerelease kit. I won’t be back. Putting in a support ticket with Pokémon as well.

  • Kat Mac Kenzie

Ron and his team do an AMAZING job of connecting the community thru nerd fandom. The shop is always clean, well stocked and the staff is lovely. Furthermore, my service dog is always welcome. They go beyond basic ADA requirements and truly welcome my helper and I.

  • Paul Hirschler

Never been in an establishment like this. Went in with the son-in-law. I could never imagine..... Excellent customer service for a neophyte like me. S-I-L made his purchases, I impulse purchased 3 Warhammer 40K buttons. Only because I loved the audio books.

  • The Official House of Karloff 1985

One of the best LCS in the area, Mike and his staff are super knowledgeable and friendly... Best prices for comic supplies and if you ever need to sell your vintage books Mike will give you the best price for them. 5 Stars and Highly Recommended!!!

  • PacMan Dreaming (PacManDreaming)

If you're looking for comics or graphic novels, this is the place to go! They have thousands of comics. And they also having lots of gaming/rpg books and miniatures. It's also run by some really nice people. I can see becoming a regular, here.

  • John Garcia

The only reason they get one star from me is because the young lady said hi to my 8yr old son. Both times that I visited this place I got treated like I wasn't good enough to be acknowledged. First time I asked if they had an item and all I

  • Derek Flores

Great shop with friendly, helpful staff. Well organized as well. Not only comics but lots of collectibles and miscellaneous items to scratch your DC, MARVEL, etc...itch. Not to pricey either which is a welcomed change.

  • Kelsey Wu

A fabulous labyrinth of pop culture chaos. The staff was friendly and helpful. Left with an armful of books which for me is saying something. Lavish stock of blanks and modern books with numerous pop culture items.

  • J Rodriguez

This store is a unique find. There is a large assortment of Funko pops and comic books at this location. The employees are helpful and great you with a smile. Enjoy coming in to see what they have that's new.
