Editorial Review for Hog Wild – by Kellie Bledsoe
In Short
Located in the handful of offbeat stores on North Loop, Hog Wild claims to be Texas' largest collectible-toy store. The left side of the store has shelves devoted to Pee Wee Herman, action figures from '70s TV shows like "Welcome Back, Kotter," and "Mork & Mindy" and movies like "Star Wars." The other half of the store is filled with neatly hung, kitschy clothing from the '40s on, including cocktail dresses, Hawaiian shirts and smoking jackets.

make sure you look over your purchase verrrrry carefully- he won't take it back and he'll get rude about it too! Never shopping there again.

Hog Wild is a great store! I have personally done business with one of the venders (partners) by the name of Joe. He's amazing! He makes you feel like you've known him for years and he'll remember who you are the next itme you come in. I would recommend this store to anyone! The prices are very reasonable and the variety is awesome.
Pros: variety, friendly service, convienient hours
Cons: small parking lot
