Day 7: Return to Akihabara
It’s inevitable. Everyone who visits to Japan would always return to Akihabara. and if time permits, one would try to go there more than once in a trip. however if one would visit Akihabara on a weekend, one would find the highway closed so that pedestrians can walk freely across to shop. ^^
Unfortuantely for me I couldn’t finish and get pass one building up until sundown. check out the building near the Akihabara station where the Kotobukiya shop is at.
Anyone interested in gashapon in balls
why get an HY2M if you can get yourself a one of a kind, giant sized Optimus Prime.
or a life size Ayanami Rei.
however, not all of the notable stuff in the building comes in giant size. it’s also a place where one might find “parts paradise”. read about it once on DannyChoo.com, here one can buy gundam kit parts that they broke or need for kit bashing.

[…] I would just refer them to one of Danny’s old post about a shop called parts paradise. (actually went to this shop myself during my last Japan trip) or sometimes I would ask them to check the box, since some more expensive kits do have an order […]

Cyrus, I don’t have an exact address but if you get down from the akihabara station, you’d see a building with a kotobukiya shop at the bottom, it’s on the fourth floor.
