FYI, OP, remember there's two Mandarake in Osaka. I took a trip there last week. Went to Grand Chaos but completely forgot about the one in Umeda.

Also, the best station to go to for Denden town is Ebisucho.

Yeah I got those on my to do list. I'm going to every toy shop I can find.

I just got on the subway. I'm on my way to mandrake right now. This is like a dream

It's a shopping arcade. It's essentially just a rain proof, open air, shopping area. Stores aren't as wide as they are deep, but some places aren't deep at all.

Mandrake = cosco but instead with toys

>>4537924
Not at all. Mandarake is more similar to a used bookstore. That their stock comes from people needing to get rid of their stuff. Some people buy things and just never open them.

Not too weird, Probably based off some Toriyama art. The world of Toriyama's covers and side-art of Dragon ball is this super chill world where everyone's always driving vintage vehicles and wearing casual clothes and being comfy.

>>4537944
The world of Western action figure collecting in Japan intrigues me. I've seen 2ch pics of Japanese collectors with displays of Marvel Legends and 90's Kenner/Toy Biz stuff and a few other pre-2000s toys. I wonder if the latter stuff has the same appeal as, say, kaiju vinyls or Jumbo Machinders have in the west. Now where's that trigun page where the author talks about a western style Vash toy with a necessary action feature.

>>4538010
Spawn was huge in Japan. To the point where Trigun's Vash the Stampede's long flowing coat was a reference of Spawn's cape.
