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 and growing. Today, almost everything that you ever think of (on toys) can be found here.
Used to be located in Jalan Tanjung Bungah, the museum has since moved to another premises at 1370, Mk2, Teluk Bahang, 11050 Penang which is exactly beside SJK(C) Eok Hua School in Teluk Bahang, Penang.
When you walk around certain section of the Penang Toy Museum, you'll get to experience chilling voices, weird sound and motion effects triggered by motion sensors that are installed to enhance the atmosphere of the surrounding. The wall of the museum is creatively decorated with the famous ancient Egyptian monument such as the Great Sphinx and the Pyramids of Giza.
