Post Tentacles, Horns, and Scales...
The show's opening was awesome. There was a very sizable crowd and an amazing amount of great treasures to go around. My personal pick for toy of the show was Koji's wild Tokoji Seijin custom. The contrast between the pastel body and brown shell is nuts. Sorry, the pictures aren't better, but trying to secure a shot of the display cases was difficult.

Yes, it has been awesome. An amazing array of toys and even cooler cast of real life characters. I highly recommend a visit for all those even remotely interested. Tokyo is very reasonable on the pocket book if you plan it right, and its people are just fantastic!

Damn, that red ojo with all the eyes is killer! I wonder if it is still for sale at thrashout. The dark colored set of Gargamel mini's is also killer.

So many beautiful toys there. The row of large Globby's really caught my eye. Are those the first one's that size?

Thanks for sharing. Sounds like a great time.

You should post your tips on making a trip to Tokyo 'reasonable'.
