 More About Us
 

Singapore native Chang Yang Fa, an engineering consultant, still has his first toy, a Matchbox 73 RAF refueling truck he bought when he was 6. He now owns the Mint Museum of Toys to hold the 50,000 pieces he’s acquired since then. He believes his five-story glass building is the first purpose-built toy museum ever. Among the rarest objects in the collection is a water pistol from the 1950s based on the English sci-fi comic book hero, Dan Dare (”It’s the only one known to exist in the world,” says Chang). The toys, many in their original packaging, are arranged by theme, rather than by country of origin. “Toys from Brazil and Japan are next to each other to provoke visitors to ask: Why are they so similar?” says Chang. “The world of toys is universal.”

 
 What You Can Experience
 


Over 10,000 pieces of toys displayed at any one time, majority of which is in mint condition.

A German-made ‘Chinese Stair Walker’ toy – one of the oldest toys in Southeast Asia, dating back to 1840.
Mint Café - the only café with a vintage toys and childhood memorabilia theme, in Singapore.
