Here's the thread I started about Osaka a while back:
http://www.skullbrain.org/bb/viewtopic.php?t=10479
From the thread: andy wrote: Psychedelia is next to Chameleon on the 2nd floor of the Namba City mall, which is connected to the Namba JR station (on the Midosuji line). It took me a little while to find the store, too, but it's well worth it.

Found it. Thanks Roger. I had written this info down but was still struggling.
Very confusing from the Namba Walk subway.
Found it straight away from the street entrance to the mall.
Also went uptown today and checked Mandrake, Super Position and Charactics.
Charactics was the best. It`s a really nicely designed shop with great stock.
Kageaki is a really nice guy. He had his mini Godzilla`s layed out ready to be bagged up for a release late this month. He gave me one as a gift when i left which was really cool.
I`ll post up some photo`s when i get to Tokyo. Love Osaka.
Already planning to return. Not enough time to see everything in Osaka & Kyoto.
Sunday we went to Kyoto and had drinks under the Cherry Blossoms.
Just near the famous weeping cherry blossom tree.
Got really drunk on beers & Saki last night.

Thanks! They're on sale for like $12 on KT, which is a small price to pay for the honor of explaining to everyone outside of HobbyCon what a "kaiju" is and why I am "not buying them" ironically.

Looks awesome! Looks like another place I'll have to visit on my coming (maybe) Japan trip.

Definitely hit up Cosmo Knight Alpha's store while you're in Tokyo. It's a little out of the way but WORTH IT.
