 Japan "Toy Fair" ID?
As all of you probably know, Japanorama, BBC's tv show on Japanese culture had a segment on toys, I was wondering whether anyone could point out what "Toy Fair" was in the segment.
Should start seeing it around 2:15.

It sounds like the narrator says "toy fairs" instead of giving it a specific name.
It doesn't look like Big Sight, my guess is it's a Superfest.
BTW, whenever you see interviews with Hiddy et al, do you find yourself ignoring the person being interviewed and searching the shelves behind them for familiar toys?

It looks like the same place as the Super Fest I went to in Seeptember of 2007.

Yeah, that Rat Fink poster on the wall also makes me think it's a Superfest.
