There’s what I’d like to call the golden triangle of Anime Shops here in Kuala Lumpur, situated within Berjaya Times Square, Sungai Wang Plaza and Plaza Lowyat. In my opinion, this is by far the most anime shops that you can find in a 0.5km wide radius.
These three shopping complexes house a lot of Anime Shops selling a variety of Anime merchandise ranging from Dakimakuras, Wall Scrolls, Gundams model kits, Anime and action Figures (SH Figuarts / Revoltech) and so on and so forth.

Like the name suggests, Omocha which means toys in Japanese sells a lot of toys primarily related to the mecha genre. There is a wide selection of toys from series such as Power Rangers (from the original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to the newer Zeos) and Kamen Rider, all the swords and doohickeys are present here. Some of the displayed goods in the cabinets are second hand mind you but you might just find that rarely seen trinket that you might want.

This article was originally written in July 2012, hence the old comments. After so many changes to the comic scene in Malaysia, I had to re-write it again and finally I was able to complete it. Since all the information is all new, I have reposted it again today (updated Nov 1st, 2020)

You could always get Marvel Comics or DC Comics at the book store chains such as the MPH bookstore, Borders, BookXcess, and also Kinokuniya.
Most of the comics there are compilations such as trade paperbacks, graphic novels, and omnibus. If you prefer the whole set like the Secret Invasion mini-series in one hardcover, you could surely get that from the stores above.
Back in the 1980s, it was easy to find comics everywhere. You can even get them from the mamak stalls that were selling newspapers and magazines.
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
The comic book scene had a large fan base back then. In the late 1980s, we saw the birth of our own local comic book stores such as The Mind Shop and The Comics Corner. Many more comics book stores started to open after that like Earth 638 and The Final Frontier.
I used to spend a few hours on weekends (at least once a month) at The Mind Shop since they first opened in KL Plaza until they finally closed at Sri Damansara. To get my pull list and to also browse back issues.
Kinokuniya has the ongoing series, but you can’t get back issues here. If you are a collector, it is best if you skip Kinokuniya. The comics come with plastic covers but there were a few times they were without backing boards. If anyone else mishandles it before you, then it would not be in mint/near mint condition anymore.
