If memory fails me (man I have been using that a lot today) there is a small article in one of the last couple of Super 7's about hunting toys in Tokyo.
October 1 is Superfes. A glorious and chaotic toy scrum. November 11 is Patchi kaiju summit. Usually its a total trip. not like any other event your likely to go to. Also the best toy shops in Osaka are basically in one small cluster near the Denden town Mandarake. I will be posting my long overdue Toy ahopping Osaka Flickr set any day now...
