    NICE! So colorful. I was in Japan 7years ago and regret not going to the shops. SO many random toys. I love it.

    Excellent pics Deadbone.

    When I went to some shops in Tokyo, I always felt like my head couldnt keep up with my eyes. There was just so much stuff, so densly packed that my mind couldnt process it all.

    I was there just after open around 12.00
    LOL the store is bumpin'. As Legoomba said It's hard to play catch up with your eyes and brain.
    I found myself doing laps or just staring at one spot for a while.
    Thanks for the name of the shop!

    Does anyone know the story of the pink toy with the huge head on the second shelf in the first picture? There is a sea blueish green version of it in the picture too.

    Superb pics. Stealthtank and I found that although visiting the single shops around Tokyo was great fun, Nakano Broadway was really what got our blood pumping in terms of refreshed selection, and overall bargain hunting.

    I can't wait to go back!!!!

    I've never been to Japan..even when I was in the Army I tried to go via cheap military travel. Couldn't swing it. Maybe when my daughter gets a little older....
