Family time! My Mom and Sister is back in the Philippines so I arranged a family trip that’s both kid and adult friendly (meaning not too tiring and boring). I decided to give them a tour of Manila. I purchased a good deal from Metro Deal and got our entrance ticket at Yexel’s Toy Museum for only 99 PHP (original price 250 PHP)
Yexel’s Toy Museum has housed Yexel Sebastian’s toy collection since 1989. He is the older brother of the late Filipino YouTuber, Jam Sebastian who died of lung cancer last March 2015. The collection now includes over 10,000 toys. It is located in Las PiƱas, Philippines. The four-story building exhibits miniatures to life-sized cartoon, animation, video games and movie-based characters. Its main attraction is an 18-foot Optimus Prime bust created by Abet Valdecantos.
Sebastian’s second museum, named Yexel’s Toy Collection, is located inside the Boom na Boom Complex in Pasay City. As of December 2014, Yexel’s Toy Museum’s third branch, dubbed as Amazing Stories of Yexel’s Museum, in partnership with the Manila Ocean Park, was completed and introduced to the public. – Wikipedia
In our adventure at Yexel’s Toy Museum, we headed to the third branch which is located inside Manila Ocean Park.
My adorkable side was screaming for joy. Almost all my favorite fictional characters were here! I think I’m more excited than my son that day.

Yexel’s Toy Museum is a place for the family to enjoy. My family had a great time. I am pretty sure that people of all ages will surely enjoy this place but before heading on, be sure you have lots of space on your camera’s storage device.
