The toy museum, 12,000 sq ft (1,115 sq m) in all, is said to be the largest of its kind in South-East Asia and houses one of the most comprehensive collections of modern and contemporary toys in the world. The toys in the museum are displayed in simple shelves and arranged in a manner to suit the ambience. Even toys of the latest in the series can be seen such as Aliens, Spiderman 2 , Hulk , Spawn , X-Men , Matrix Reloaded , Terminator 3, and The Lord of the Rings to name a few. The astonishing diversity of toys and models is like watching hundreds of movies in mini displays over a span of a couple of hours. There are also limited edition collectibles of living life characters such as Jackie Chan, Mr. Bean , Britney Spears and Michael Jackson. Dont be alarmed when some toys suddenly start moving their hands and claws, or if you hear chilling voices in certain sections of the museum; it makes the whole experience even more thrilling.  
Contrary to the island's heritage trails and exotic beaches, "The Toy Museum" offers a spectacular show of collectibles that are rarely found in Asia. It might not be historically significant for toys, which have been in existence for centuries, but it is a fine example of a layman's long pursued dream of having a "museum" of his own . This should make Malaysians proud that Cheang's ambitious dream has now become a unique tourist attraction, usually only found in Western countries. At a nominal price of RM 10 for an adult entrance fee, one can escape into a land of personal collections and beloved characters in the largest modern toys display in Malaysia. - Location : Jalan Tanjung Bungah, Penang 11200, Malaysia (Right infront of Copthorne Orchid Hotel)
