    Super7 is happy to announce our first tour trip to Tokyo!

    The S7 crew will be visiting Tokyo, Japan Sept 26 - 28, and you're invited!

    Join us in Japan for the inside track on toy shops, attending SuperFest,
    a Super7 x Gargamel Art Show at Thrashout and much, much more.
    We will be your guide to all things Tokyo –all you have to do is get there.

    Fine Print:
    We will meet you at a point TBA on September 26th, in Tokyo. Travel and lodging arrangements are DIY, so that part is up to you. Once you are there, we will lead you on a tour of all the best underground points of interest, from toy shops to fashion to food! We will kick off the tour with a Friday night party and art show at Gargamel's Thrash Out shop in Koenji, and then pick up Saturday with visits to Mandarake, Ichibanboshi, Gojira-Ya, Shinto Gangu, Secret Base, Bounty Hunter, Original Fake and more! After a few days of shops, a toy festival, and more, your wallet will hurt just as much as your feet do! Plan to do a good amount of walking, taking pictures and goofing off, and be sure to bring an extra pair of shoes, seriously. Your feet will thank you.

    The schedule:
    Sept. 26 - Super7 art show at Thrash Out (Gargamel HQ) in Koenji, Tokyo
    Sept. 27 - Super7 will be giving guided tours of Toy shops in Tokyo and group dinner
    Sept. 28 - Superfestival, Toy shop tours in the afternoon, group dinner.

    It is up to you to get to Tokyo, but once you do, we will happily show you around.

    If you would like to join the trip, please send an email to glenn@super7store.com to be added to the list.

    See you in Tokyo!
    -Super7

    When I saw the title I was thinking it was S7 touring the US with Japanese toys for those who can't make it to SF all the time :oops:

    Let the bloodbath begin!
    You should make some exclusive gargamel toy with bloodsplatter for everyone who attends.
