Worlds Apart Birmingham

I’ve been visiting this shop since my school and college days, back when it was called Nostalgia & Comics, so it holds a lot of nostalgia for me. While the layout and counter position have changed over the years, one thing that hasn’t is the quality of service. The staff are always welcoming, incredibly helpful, and clearly very knowledgeable about the wide range of collectibles they stock. The selection here is fantastic and seems to have grown even more over time. It’s genuinely dangerous for your bank balance because there’s always something new to catch your eye whether it’s comics, figures, or collectibles you didn’t even know you needed. On our recent visit, my wife really enjoyed browsing the well priced Loungefly bags, while my daughter was over the moon to find new additions for her One Piece collection (which explains all the One Piece photos in this review). As for me, I could have spent hours upstairs exploring the huge range of comics at different price points. This in my opinion is a brilliant shop with something for everyone, whether you’re a long-time collector or just starting out. I’d highly recommend stopping by if you’re in Birmingham.

Amazing manga shop! They have a huge selection of books- from the most popular series to less known titles that are hard to find anywhere else. Everything is well organised, so it’s easy to browse and discover something new that you looking for. The atmosphere in the shop is really welcoming and chill. You can take your time looking around without feeling rushed. The staff are friendly and helpful if you have any questions you can ask them and they are always happy to help. Definitely be coming back 📚✨💥

Ground floor packed with collectibles of all descriptions. Even if you're not looking for anything in particular you will likely walk out with some or other new addition to your collection. Also the most extensive selection of loungefly bags that I think I have seen anywhere. If that is your thing then you should definitely visit. However the best for me was kept upstairs. Comics are my thing and this place absolutely keeps pace with the best of them when it comes to sheer range and depth of what is on offer. Make sure you have your wants list on hand for this one because you're gonna need it. I filled some gaps in my Dreamwave Transformers runs, and the guy behind the counter was really helpful in opening up a couple of bagged issues for me to confirm they were what I needed. I guess this won't be local for everyone, and even I only had a chance to visit passing through. But if you're in the area make the effort to get there and you won't be disappointed.

World's Apart is well worth a visit if you're interested in comics and wider pop culture collectables. There's a good comic selection upstairs including some quite sought after items and downstairs there is a broad range of action figures, toys, and pop culture merchandise. Located just around the corner from the Bullring it's easy to access and I'd recommend a visit.

Spanning two floors, it offers an impressive array of statues, figurines, collectible toys, books, comic books, and many other collectibles and memorabilia. The store itself is well organized, making it easy to find exactly what you're looking for. The friendly and helpful staff enhance the experience with their knowledge and willingness to assist. Overall, Worlds Apart provides a great shopping experience for comic and pop culture enthusiasts. It's definitely worth a visit!
