There aren't many shops in the world that are a constant source of ever changing fun, art and inspiration. Even fewer are in the UK.
One shop that ticks all these boxes is the Kidrobot LDN store just off Covent Garden. It genuinely is my favourite shop in London. If I have time I will always take a visit to the capital as an excuse to pop in. Nowhere else do I find items so inspiring. The staff are always wonderful, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and willing to chat about whatever you wanna chat about.
However, recently I learnt something on the grapevine that is very upsetting. The Kidrobot LDN store is going to be closing!!!!
If there is anything that can be done about this please please can it be done?

I know I'm not the only person that feels like this. I can't be. The UK art toy scene/ designer vinyl scene/ whatever you want to call it is booming. There are a huge number of incredibly talented artists in the UK and I know many of them love to get their DIY pieces and other customisable items from the Kidrobot LDN shop. Not to mention the wonderful shows which it has hosted - the Sneaky Snowball most recently.
Please please please save KidrobotLDN!!!
I have been reading through the stories you all are sharing about your own visits to the shop and they confirm exactly why this place is so irreplaceable. I am still waiting for a direct response from the team behind the store but the silence from them is becoming very loud. Please keep tagging them in your posts so they see how many people rely on this space for inspiration.

Seeing this kind of energy for the shop leaves me completely speechless. It honestly feels like the community is finally showing exactly how much this place keeps our local art scene alive.

The art toy scene here needs this shop. Its the only spot to see the new stuff in person. Massive mistake to get rid of it.
