Where nostalgia meets collectibles.
And maybe a taco or two.
2022
It started with a booth, a box of figures, and a bad pun.
Toys & Tacos started with a simple idea: what if hunting for rare collectibles could feel as good as sharing a great meal with people who get it?
Founded by Alberto and Emily, this passion project was born from childhood memories, convention floors, and the rush of uncovering that one piece you didn't know you needed, until it was in your hands.
From vintage Pokémon figures and TMNT to anime collectibles, Star Wars memorabilia, and Funko grails, we live and breathe pop culture. Shop with us online from anywhere in the U.S., or catch us in person on the Florida convention circuit, from Tampa to Fort Myers. Wherever you find us, every item is hand-picked, because we're collectors first, sellers second.
Yes, about the tacos. We don't sell them (yet). The name just captures what we're about: sharing collectibles the way you'd share your favorite meal. With excitement, care, and a little flavor.
Meet the team
Alberto
Can identify a vintage Star Wars figure on sight and has probably scoped the entire floor before you've found parking. The heart of every booth.
Emily
The creative and strategic force behind the brand; marketing, listings, and the vision that keeps it all cohesive. By day a digital marketing director, by night, the shop's steady hand.
Cory
Equal parts hype man, logistics wizard, and judo black belt (yes, really). Devoted husband to Angela and proud dad to Leonidas and Gemma.
Reconnect fans with what matters.
We're here to help fans, whether lifelong collectors or just starting out, reconnect with the characters, moments, and memories that matter most. Every item we carry is hand-picked with that in mind. We want shopping with Toys & Tacos to feel as personal and fun as the collection itself.
- Collecting is for everyone, no gatekeeping.
- Just geeking out, together.
- Your grail is out there, and we'll help you find it.
- Tacos make everything better.
Ready to find your grail?
Shop online anytime, or catch us on the Florida convention circuit.
