Toy Museum


Reputed as the largest of its kind in the world, the Museum house over 100,000 toys, dolls and others fun collectibles. It has also entered Malaysia Book of Records as the first toy museum in the country and with the largest toy and figurine collection.


Passion for toys is where it all begins, says the proud owner Loh Lean Cheng of his collections. He was inspired with toys collection after visiting the London Toy and Model Museum at the age of 19.

For the past 30 years - Starting from the first toy that he bought in 1973 at 0.5 pound (Popeye), his collection just keeps on growing & growing. Today, almost everything that you ever think of (on toys) can be found here.

The 650 sq m. museum are located in Jalan Tanjung Bungah, just in front Copthorne Orchid Hotel. Pretty easy to find if you just follows the road that are heading towards Batu Ferringhi.

Yeay! We'll be going there this coming Thursday or Friday insyaAllah. Since my sister will be going back to Houston soon, she wants to bring Ariez and Irfanto the museum. But oh, mak Irfan jangan dilupa ya hehe. I'm sure they'll go bonkers looking at piles and piles of toys around them. Haaa, can't wait to see them getting all psyched up!

Have any of you been to any toy museum in or outside the country?
