Post Our Japan Finds
Hi guys, long time no type. We're vacationing in Japan at the moment and these are pictures of some stuff we've found so far. The toy stores are totally rad.

I think this Garamon is my favorite of the bunch.

There are more closeups on my flickr if you're interested :)

Nice haul! Love those clear Gargamel Fights. Looks like you got some great deals on some base stuff? When I was over there in Nov some of the prices were crazy cheap!

This haul is probably not yet done--I bet a lot more will be added! Great finds, congrats!

That blue mini Kanegon--is it by Buta No Hana? Is that an unpainted GID Rebel I see? Or an unpainted white? :shock:

I was thinking the same thing, but it has a greenish tint to it, the color is really hard to capture in photographs.

Thanks for all the comments guys.
