MINT Museum of Toys
About This Museum
Tucked away on a bustling street in Singapore, the MINT Museum of Toys isn't just a nostalgia trip—it's a serious, and seriously fun, archive of global childhoods. Its five floors are a vibrant cabinet of curiosities, where century-old Batman comics share space with rare Japanese tin robots and weathered teddy bears that have seen more years than any of us. You'll find yourself on a whirlwind tour through pop culture history, from Victorian-era dollhouses to the very action figures that defined 1980s Saturday mornings. It’s a place that manages to feel both deeply personal and astonishingly vast.
Collection Highlights
Look for the world's only known complete set of Astroboy toys, a formidable battalion of pre-war Mickey Mouse memorabilia, and an achingly beautiful collection of vintage Chinese shadow puppets. The sheer quality is stunning; many pieces are still in their original boxes, looking as if they just left the factory.
Visitor Information
Give yourself a good hour or two to wander—the sheer density of treasures means you'll constantly be spotting something new. It’s the perfect spot to escape the afternoon heat, and you'll likely leave pointing at exhibits and saying, 'I had one of those!'
Architecture & Building
Housed in a striking, contemporary building with a dramatic curved glass facade that stands out amidst the heritage shophouses of the Bras Basah.Bugis arts district.
