When I went to Nakano Broadway, I loaded my iPad mini up with photos of toys and books that I wanted and would show them to the shop keepers and they would direct me to the proper store on the Nakano Broadway map. It worked out really well and I found some of the things I was looking for that I would probably have missed otherwise.
Nice video! I used to live in Tokyo and have good memories of Nakano Broadway. The amount of vintage Star Wars stuff they had was an unexpected but pleasant surprise; I never even considered bringing some of my old ones from home that I could trade.
I just ordered my first Microman! Super excited, only 8 bucks from Mercari jp. It looks similar to your Ishi. My lady has been collecting toys from Japan for years now and showed me how to find crazy deals recently, now we want to go to Japan to go hunting and your video is fueling that desire.
Went to Tokyo this past summer, didn't even THINK about looking for Microman/Micronauts stuff (Sought out Godzlla stuff instead). SOOO going back, now.
Only ones I recognized were Dada Monster (there's also a female version) & Ultraman Tiga Dark (or Tiger, not sure), the blue one I have no idea, but the rest of the haul seems pretty nice. I can't avoid thinking which toys I'd pick when I see these videos.
Ultraman figures; Left (Blue and red) is Metron and the middle (Black and white) is "Dada" I believe.Another great vid! glad you had a productive trip.
love this channel,I am a fan of the ultraman vinyls and was surprised at the price you were paying .Seems prices have escalated a bit.One store I really like is Mandarake which sells a lot of classic toys and videogames as well as books and comics
Just got back from an extended vacation in Japan. Perusing Akihabara, Nakano Broadway, and Den Den Town in Osaka was some of my favorite things I did there. I’m surprised you were able to film so much. The Japanese seem to have a big issue with taking pictures and stuff, even though it can be good free advertising.
Toy Polloi There were a lot of places that had ‘no picture’ signs. Not just toy shops. The place I got told to stop taking them was one of the shops in Den Den town in Osaka.
This is my target Toys and my Favorit Japanese Toys, if I'm on vacation in Japan🇯🇵 : 1.Super Sentai (Power Rangers) 2.Kamen Rider 3.Ultraman 4.Transformers 5.Chogokin 6.Gundam Greetings from Indonesia🇮🇩, Southeast Asian🙋♂️👍👍👍
Really nice haul from Japan. I really need to visit places like this to get some cool classics. The micronauts are sweet finds. also the Ghostbuster you have is Peter not Ray (probably a quick slip of the tongue). I'm looking forward to these future projects especially the proton pack repair.
I always love it when you have Micronauts/Microman stuff in your videos! Your collection continues to become even more impressive! I wonder why youtube keeps bleeping the name of the one guy you mentioned -- Tokyo @#$!?? Is his name a curse word or something?
Mr. Toy Polloi... Heard a major Announcement the other day. MEGO TOYS is coming back! Marty Abrams made the announcement at Columbus, Ohio's MegoMeet this past weekend!!! New toys to collect, sir!
Love the henshin cyborg stuff, ive got a nice little collection myself, including a very rare Cyborg rider. A nice selection of of bits you've got there Dave, you must be running out of room to put them! Thats certainly the case here at The Gaming Toy Boy HQ :-(
I went to japan for the first time in April and I enjoyed the whole trip. I did meet toycats Ishii and went to his store twice but on the first time I went it was shut but the second time I went I almost walked out again but the shop owner went rushing to the shop to open it. I did not speak much Japanese but got along fine the people were helpful . I've been to two off the mandrake shops both in Tokyo one in Complex and the other one in Shibuya that is where I found the winner robo. the people in both shops were helpful. I have not been to Nakano yet. oh and I saw the giant gundam both in the day in unicorn mode and in the night in destroy mode.
When I went to Tokyo I was really daunted by the language and I wish I had the wherewithal to have visited these places. I visited before your last video on these places though. I did grab a cool High speed train transformer for my son though. At least now I have a good reason to return.
Awesome! We are living in Tokyo. Did you ever visit STAR CASE in Koenji? It's entirely Star Wars. It's small and packed, but fun to visit. You could make a stop on Chuo Line going to or from Kichijoji. It doesn't open until 2:00 in the afternoon though.
There are a few hobby offs around the outskirts of Toyko. Check out there website for locations. Some are not that easy to get to. And they are the better ones to go to :D

I love the pride that the Japanese take in everything they do so well organized and clean.

Great idea. They are always very helpful there.
I love watching your toy hunting videos
Nice video! I used to live in Tokyo and have good memories of Nakano Broadway. The amount of vintage Star Wars stuff they had was an unexpected but pleasant surprise; I never even considered bringing some of my old ones from home that I could trade.
I always enjoy your shopping videos!
...also thrilled that you loved the apron!
It is super cool. Hanging on my door now.
I really wish I could travel with you on these Tokyo trips. It looks awesome there.
Great video! I’m glad you were happy with all the bits I traded to you! Thanks again for the Action Jack and M.A.C bits!! See you next year :)
Great to see you as well. Roll on next time!!!
How fantastic. And that apron is something I will spend a long time being jealous of !
It is rather cool. I've never seen one before.
Beautiful piece!
Mental note “take a million dollars for my trip to Japan” 😩
All great stuff, specially the Micro Man pieces, love those.
Great video 👍🏽✌🏽

Thanks for another great tour with cool music. Looking forward to seeing the cyborg and microman stuff get repaired!
Thanks. Both have now been fixed and will be in videos very soon!
WOW I love that Jaguar and all of that Microman stuff.
Went to Tokyo this past summer, didn't even THINK about looking for Microman/Micronauts stuff (Sought out Godzlla stuff instead). SOOO going back, now.
Really prefer the voice over segments to the disco. That being said, thanks for the incredible look into toys in Japan.
these videos are great for us as we not likey going to japan so they fill gap of what it like there thanks again
Vinyl monsters, always nice!
wow toy hunting in japan, so lucky
Tokyo-toy... what ?!? It kept bleeping out! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us!
Looks awesome man!! Me and missus wanna go on next couple of years!
Very nice toy haul
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks. I have the names for all of them now. I knew people would know.
@@toypolloi Big vinyl kaiju fan here! I've got a hundred or so, various Ultras, Tohos, and others. :)
I should have been in Japan now... 😷
So sad we lost Toy's R Us in the UK can't wait to get back to Japan again ♥ 🇯🇵
Love that gold Ultraman!
Likewise. We missed our trip this year.
Ultraman figures; Left (Blue and red) is Metron and the middle (Black and white) is "Dada" I believe.Another great vid! glad you had a productive trip.
Thanks. I know someone would know.
You're very welcome!You helped me fix my TIE/in and Ywing so it's only fair lol :P
I remember the middle one from the show. Creepy!

I've never had any issues taking photos. Where were you taking them?

Ah yes, Peter! I have a Ray as well somewhere.
If you're interested Dave, there is a complete vintage Black Panther suit for your Cyborg Jaguar for £22.50 on ebay (Japan) seems a pretty good price!
Ultraman Tiga Dark as well...very nice
I always love it when you have Micronauts/Microman stuff in your videos! Your collection continues to become even more impressive! I wonder why youtube keeps bleeping the name of the one guy you mentioned -- Tokyo @#$!?? Is his name a curse word or something?
Thanks. I do love the Microman stuff. I 'bleep' his name as I know people watch my channel with their kids.
For the longest time I thought Cathy from Jolly Dolly Shop WAS Mrs. Toy Polloi.
Ha ha. No, she is not.
Mr. Toy Polloi... Heard a major Announcement the other day. MEGO TOYS is coming back! Marty Abrams made the announcement at Columbus, Ohio's MegoMeet this past weekend!!! New toys to collect, sir!
Could be interesting. I'll wait and see.
Actually that's a Peter Venkman figure you have there. The toys were based on the cartoon, so that's why he doesn't look too much like Bill Murray.
The hitchen cyborg figures are great!
👍 Good haul dude nice job!
I LOVE Tokyo. I spent so much there on toys I had to buy luggage to bring it home
Yep, we've done the same. So many good things to buy!
Yea mad balls in japan, love gross out toys. Alot of star wars still on shelves in toysrus.
Love the henshin cyborg stuff, ive got a nice little collection myself, including a very rare Cyborg rider. A nice selection of of bits you've got there Dave, you must be running out of room to put them! Thats certainly the case here at The Gaming Toy Boy HQ :-(
The Cyborgs are great. My room is certainly packed at the moment. Time for a clear out soon of some of my extra bits.
I went to japan for the first time in April and I enjoyed the whole trip. I did meet toycats Ishii and went to his store twice but on the first time I went it was shut but the second time I went I almost walked out again but the shop owner went rushing to the shop to open it.
I did not speak much Japanese but got along fine the people were helpful . I've been to two off the mandrake shops both in Tokyo one in Complex and the other one in Shibuya that is where I found the winner robo. the people in both shops were helpful.
I have not been to Nakano yet. oh and I saw the giant gundam both in the day in unicorn mode and in the night in destroy mode.
Dont forget to visit a really cheap second hand toy store called "toy planet" which located far from tokyo
I'll have to look that one up. Don't think I have been there before.
When I went to Tokyo I was really daunted by the language and I wish I had the wherewithal to have visited these places. I visited before your last video on these places though. I did grab a cool High speed train transformer for my son though. At least now I have a good reason to return.
It can be a bit daunting. But just go for it. I am clearly foreign, so that helps. Just smile and be polite.
never knew of the huge Stature of Liberty in Tokyo..any info on that folks?
Its in odaiba, outside aqua city shopping mall. A five minute walk from the gundam robot at diver city.
Awesome! We are living in Tokyo. Did you ever visit STAR CASE in Koenji? It's entirely Star Wars. It's small and packed, but fun to visit. You could make a stop on Chuo Line going to or from Kichijoji. It doesn't open until 2:00 in the afternoon though.
I do go to Star Case. But I find it a very expensive shop compared to others.
Yes...you are right. It's very expensive. We rarely buy anything there.
We love your channel, by the way.
Thanks. You are very lucky to live in Toyko. I only get to visit once a year.
Going to Japan in September! Any tips on good out of the way Hobby Off and such? Love the one in Koenji 😊
There are a few hobby offs around the outskirts of Toyko. Check out there website for locations. Some are not that easy to get to. And they are the better ones to go to :D
Also, check out my previous videos on Tokyo for more info. Cheers
Toy Polloi Cool, looks like I'll try to go to Shinegawa flea market at least! Thanks for the tips 😊
That's a good one to go to. On every Saturday and sunday. Get there early.
Thanks for sharing. FYI thats Peter not Ray.
Alien shark looking Ultraman Kaiju is called Alien Metron I think
Great video! What sort of stuff did you trade? What are the Japanese collectors after from the West?
Mainly Star Wars, but MOTU is good as well. Anything that is not easy to get there.
Very overwhelming!
You passed up a Constable Zuvio figure!
Mighty Boosh looking Ultraman Kaiju is called Dada
Is it easy for a "NON-Japanese-speaking" person to navigate Tokyo?
I don't speak or read Japanese. Once you get a hang of the trains, it's really easy. And the trains are pretty easy.
the ghostbuster is peter not ray
well I've learnt something toys r us in toyko
Tokyo toy...beep. Who are these people or have they gone rough?
why the beeps?
He has a rude name. And this channel is for all to enjoy.
I am beyond curious what the rude word is now.
It's not that rude. And he posts on my FB page. But on youtube my videos are for all.
Tokyo Toy B*****d
Why did you cus so much
Its his name. So I bleeped out the rude word.
