Just came back from my trip... it was a trip to see some of the stores in Tokyo. By far the most fascinating was Nakano... with 3 (or 4?) stories of toy goodies. Didn't have any AMAZING finds, but it was still fun to browse (and I also saved my Dr. Pepper can with a Rockin JellyBean illustration)... and i did get asssed out w/ the dissected kaws oh well. still had fun and survived eating some fugu.



oh yeah, also had to buy the single of "Won't Be Long" by Exile and Koda Kumi after getting the song stuck in my head after seeing their advertising in Harajuku

what kind of toy is the mario shroom?

some sort of solar power activated dealio?

yeah, it's solar powered and the mushroom wobble spins... it's actually supposed to be for prizes when you play those games with the claw... but I was too impatient to win one so I bought it when I saw it at superpotato

Nice variety in your finds Rhino. The RJB Dr. Pepper can is awesome!

Hey did you buy that glow Namegon at Mandrake Nakano for like 2500 yen? I was there a little over 2 weeks ago and almost bought him... I love those glow figures.

yeah, it was like 2100 at Nakano... wish i grabbed more cheapo glow figs. did u get anything interesting during your visit?

You can see photos of the items I bought here:

I didn't buy many glow figures this time, but many M1 figures which is what I primarily collect now. I did get a small glow ultraman keychain. It might be hard to see in the photo since it's still in a little bag.[/url]

seeing that last picture from in front of the harajuku stop gives me good memories...tokyo is sooo fucking awesome
