Thunder Egg Nodule

I ordered a pair of 'Run and Fly' Sunflower dungarees for my 24yr old daughter for Christmas as she had said she was desperate to have a pair, and had been unable to get a pair as they sell out so fast.So unbeknown to her I searched and found your site. They arrived beautifully packed and on time. She absolutely loved them and is now following you on Instagram as will I. I will highly recommend your delightful shop to friends and family for mail order as we live in London.

Ordered for the first time this week. A little item for myself from the sale. With only a few days till Christmas I thought I'd see it at new year. It arrived 48 hours later on the 23rd. Securely packaged and in perfect condition. Fantastic! I love the Erstwilder collection and will be buying more from them! Thanks.

Amazing products, great prices and website easy to navigate. Have ordered serval things and am updated throughout and can’t fault delivery speed

Fab shop full of lovely funky things, in a great range of sizes. Perfect if you like something a little bit different. Staff nice and friendly too

Visited this shop for the first time yesterday with my daughter. We loved it, service was excellent and my daughter was so pleased with the dress she bought. My daughter usually finds shoping really difficult and we often go home empty handed, so it was extra special to have such a successful trip. She also found the website really positive , and is keen to see models she can relate to as she also uses a stick. Thank you. x

The customer experience in the Afflecks Palace shop is just down right poor. 'Rude' is an understatement.

Visited yesterday. Some beautiful clothing! Will definitely be back and can't wait to wear my new purchase!

I ordered the leopard print swing dress in Khaki green, absolutely beautiful. I bought it to use while I grow my human and its honestly so comfy and lush and will be good after pregnancy too so win win!!

Steve in the Afflecks store was super helpful today. Lovely clothes and great service

Will definitely be back everything is colour coded so you can find everything easily. Fantastic, quirky shop.

Amazing costumer service trough emails. Items arrive well packaged and in perfect condition. Needed to return a few items from different orders (not fault of their own, just didn't fit me well) and the return service was really good. Highly recommended

Without a doubt, most most favourite purveyor of glorious clothing. I usually order online as the service is so quick, but I occasionally treat myself to visiting the store as I love how helpful and friendly the staff are.

Everyones talking about the bad customer service but i shopped online so this wasnt the issue. For me its the quality of the clothing which is a shame as i love the rainbow clothing. Two knitted cardigans have started falling apart at the sleeves and a big hole in the shoulder.

Great products, dire customer service, treat it like they're doing you a favour taking your order! Google and you'll find most stuff available at shops with fantastic customer service and who care - won't use again and tell anyone who'll listen to avoid these cowboys.

I love Thunder Egg. They always sell beautiful fabric designed clothes (bought a lovely bee tshirt from here and I love their dinosaur prints). Often find gifts here for friends and family, and I love their range of patches and pins that vary regularly.

What a different shop, near the northern quarter in Manchester. Clothing, gifts etc. A one off shop. A must for those who want something different. Staff so helpful too. They have changing rooms, so you can try before you buy.

I love vintage style clothing and have bought many things on topvintage, collectif and tigermilly. Loved this shop, but the 2 staff working on the 3rd and 4th May were awful, uncommunicative, unfriendly and not welcoming. Therefore, I decided to spend my money online, as usual. Sort out your staffing - unprofessional

So much fun! If you want a dinosaur dress, you've found your place. Vintage-inspired homewares, accessories, and clothes.

I usually have an alright experience in Thunderegg. I certainly love their products and it's always my go-to place to get one of a kind gifts. Today must have been an off day for the staff. I went in to return something that, while not necessarily faulty, was very badly made. Because the item didn't cost much, the manager's response was "you get what you pay for" and I was begrudgingly given a credit note (only good for 1 month even over the holidays?!) while the other sales person whistled (not annoying in the slightest).

It's a shame when a great shop gets ruined

I'd been putting off going into this shop until a friend of mine came to visit yesterday, as it's not the kind of place you'd take your straight, male, other half.

Thunder Egg is filled with hundreds of gorgeously girly treats, from shiny handbags and purses, beautifully illustrated birthday cards and cool clothing, to vintage style photo frames, cute costume jewellery and chintzy home ware.

You could easily spend a fortune here as it's one of those shops that leaves you believing you absolutely, positively HAVE to have that polkadot nail file or that coaster that says

Thunder egg is my favourite shop. I'd simply end the review there if i could, but i dont think yelp will allow it. So i shall elaborate.

so what do they sell....

'We sell womenswear ranging from vintage inspired 50's frocks,1940s style tea dresses, printed oversized T-Shirts to hundreds of dresses from current and quirky labels such as Sugarhill Boutique, Trollied Dolly, Glamorous, Shikha London, Alice takes a trip,lazy oaf, and many many more!'

....some of the more are the cutest and most beautiful of homeware, accessories and other gifts.

Thunder egg had a shop in Afflecks

Bit bloody brilliant this shop.
I can;t believe I have never actually walked through it's doors before now. and it was only because there was an awesome penguin jumper in the window I had to have that I did.
Anyway, the shop sells quirky clothes for ladies, like the kind you would find on Tib St Fashion Market. Also sells accessories to the maximum displayed all over the show and in cute little cabinets. Very well displayed for viewing but not so much trying on and feeling.
There is a downstairs but I don;t know what's there or if it is ever open.
The prices are ridiculously cheap. Either

Thunderegg is a cute little Northern Quarter boutique selling a range of chintzy ladies wear, accessories, gift items, badges and general silly-things you didn't realise you wanted but HAVE to have. Its a bit of an Aladdin's cave of treats and wonders, and is a really great stop for girly gifts and novelty items.

I popped by earlier having seen a really lovely dress in there a few weeks ago, and noting a 'sale' sign it seemed the perfect time to bag the swag. Unfortunately I experienced some really really shoddy customer service (which I've experienced a couple of times

Well, it can't hurt to look in Thunder Egg when there's a sale on, can it?

Good lord. I had no idea half of this stuff even existed! Tape measures in the shape of cats? Moomin toys as far as the eye can see? Bags with a "tea and toast" design on them? All this is sandwiched between dotty spotty frilly dresses and random accessories. Thunder Egg is very much the kind of store that you'll visit and come away with vast amounts of what generally are unnecessaries... but suddenly they seem very necessary.

There's the odd gadget here, a cute diary there... it's utterly

Thunderegg has an unusual name and a lot of unusual items stocked to match. Think the brightest, patterned item and then times that by thousands, you'll get Thunderegg on the brain.

That's two floors of lots of little gifts, clothes, purses, keyrings, bags, just things that don't do much but are quirky and patterned. Russian dolls even. There's some Paul Frank and that monkey lying around and some Hello Kitty items.

I personally wouldn't buy anything from here because it's a bit too much for me. It's really expensive for what it is. I saw one purse which I

My parents compliment me each year on the quirky presents I end up getting for my sister. "You always seem to know what to get her," they say. It is all thanks to Northern Quarter boutique Thunder Egg. I walk round around Manchester trying to find somewhere to pick up the perfect, individual little gift and invariably I end up back here.

Cool badges with robots on them; plastic jewellery in the shape of fast food items; cloth bags with nautical tattoo designs on them - it is a hive of awesome, mainly japanese-themed, kitsch that my sister provides an excuse for me to buy. None of it

Are you bored of your boring, regular, rubber duck? Have your bathtimes just lost that little bit of sparkle? If so, then what you need is a luxury rubber duck. In case you didn't know, that's a rubber duck that has arty, kitsch prints on it that make it look dead cool.

Everything in Thunder Egg is like this. Arty, kitsch and really, really cool. They carry loads of girls clothes which I clearly don't know anything about.

But this place is also full of awesome items that would make great gifts for your other half. We're talking watches, purses, make-up bags and loads of pretty

You can't help but be drawn into this shop. The bright colours and Japanese inspired trinkets make it hard to resist.


Thunder Egg is a great place for gifts, whether you're looking for stocking fillers or something a bit bigger. I can't think of another shop quite like it. Accessories from independent designers sit alongside novelty ornaments, kitsch toys and unusual objects for your home. I went in on Saturday and was dazzled by novelty jewellery, hot water bottles, cup cake badges and other odds and ends. The Moomins seem to be very popular at the moment.


Situated on Oldham

Situated in the Northern Quarter this place is a very cool shop in a very cool location. The shop is really quirky and retro, a great place to find all sorts of bits and bobs.

You will find handbags, clothes, gifts and jewellery here. The upside: great sop with really friendly staff. The downside: a little on the expensive side. After you have splashed your cash you can come out and find lots of trendy cafes nearby where you can show of your loot.

Until I checked out their website, I had no idea that Thunderegg was a shrine to all things Japanese.. but now it all makes sense. It is a cute little shop in the Northern Quarter selling clothes (Cutie, Gorgeous - brands like that- yes please), vinyl toys, plastic headbands and jewellery. The till area and near the fitting rooms are like if a harajuku girl started up her own branch of Accessorize.

They sell Hello Kitty, Paul Frank, Emily Strange and the clothes aren't even that expensive - I tried on a spotty grey/ purple dress for £18. There was a fair amount of the old leopard print
