Visit Shop 42, part retro video game store, part pop culture paradise, and part storage-unit surprise. The owners source their ever-rotating inventory from purchased storage units, which means this sprawling two-location shop with space on the main mall floor and in the furniture room is constantly refreshing with unexpected finds. On the main floor, a vintage Goebel x Looney Tunes rotating tower is packed with Funko Pop! figures from Star Wars, Marvel, and X-Men, while retro gaming consoles including a Super Nintendo, PlayStation, and Sega Dreamcast sit alongside stacks of PS4 titles, Xbox games, and PSP UMD movies. A limited-edition Peavey Marvel Rockmaster Captain America guitar still in the box is a standout for music and comic collectors alike.
The pop culture runs deep here. Seattle Mariners bobbleheads, rows of baseball cards in protective cases, Cabbage Patch Kids dolls, Disney Princess figures, LEGO sets, Playmobil, and Matchbox cars in original packaging fill multiple shelves. A large yellow M&M's store display figure and a striking neon Mickey Mouse wall clock add playful scale, while Toby-style character jugs, Royal Doulton-style figurines, and Southwestern pottery with hand-painted geometric designs bring a more traditional collecting angle.
Over in the furniture room, the variety keeps going with carved wooden elephant and giraffe figures, Budweiser Clydesdale steins, Ichiro Mariners action figures, Spode Christmas Tree china, and a brass candelabra next to an oil hurricane lamp. Chevrolet belt buckles, casino poker chips, vintage pocket knives, camouflage military gear, and a well-worn skateboard share space with amber carnival glass goblets, a cut crystal bowl, and Michael Kors handbags. Whether you're hunting for a retro video game store find or a one-of-a-kind collectible, Shop 42 proves that storage units yield the best surprises.

Shop 42's centerpiece cabinet is hard to miss — a sealed Peavey Rockmaster Marvel Captain America limited edition guitar shares space with a black acoustic guitar, all crowned by a large elk antler rack and a carved wood bear. One of only 1,000 made worldwide, this sealed Peavey Rockmaster Marvel Captain America limited edition guitar set is still in its original box, complete with strap, cable, and picks.

A US military woodland camo fragmentation vest shares shelf space with a sheathed fixed-blade knife and several boxed knife sets still in their original packaging.

A parade of hand-carved wooden elephants in light and dark wood fills this table, joined by a tall red-stained carved giraffe with bead eyes, a glazed ceramic giraffe, and a vintage Union Pacific Railroad envelope tacked to the wall behind. Three copper Moscow Mule mugs and a larger copper pitcher cluster alongside a patinated brass tankard with a flat strap handle and a chunky clear pressed glass beer mug. A vintage baitcasting reel loaded with line on a wood rod section sits next to a chrome USS Comstock rod bracket, a compelling find for fishing history and naval memorabilia collectors alike. A glossy vintage Winnie the Pooh ceramic cookie jar with Pooh clutching his "Hunny" pot, a classic piece of Disney kitchenware that any collector of character pottery would love.
