Not that i noticed, but it was so jam-packed in there it would have been easy to miss something.

Re: Tokyo hobby shopps
There's no vintage left in those shops: they allways turn araound stock as fast as possible.
There used to be an rc shop chain that had in each store a wall or 2 reserved for NOS and second hand stuff. But they went bankrupt.

Re: Tokyo hobby shopps
Wow, this is cool to see. Thanks for taking the time to take the pictures and post about it.
Yeah there was a thread about that Jun Watanabe Hornet where we all were disgusted.
To be fair though, it makes a perfect R/C for a daughter, wife, etc...
I knew about the Kumamon bear versions of the Tumbling Bull and Sand Rover as they've been all over eBay for awhile now. Apparently it's a popular mascot created by the government of Kumamoto Prefecture. I don't think I've ever seen the anime Sandmaster before though.

Re: Tokyo hobby shopps
Very cool, thanks for sharing! I would love to go to Japan some day, but mostly to drool on the JDM cars! I'd be down for a Lucy as well! ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

Re: Tokyo hobby shopps
I saw a couple GT-R's there, R34s i think. One of them took off like a bat out of hell and bounced off the rev limiter, sounded pretty bad ass!
I also saw an STi that was all decked out, including a huge anime chick face on the side. It wasn't Lucy though![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)
