Buy model kits 2013/2/9 05:11
Hello,

Is there a good place with shops that sell model kits? For example of (military) helicopters, tanks, boats to Star Wars models?

My guess will be Akihabara but does anybody know any shops?

Will be going to Tokyo, Yokohama, Kyoto and Osaka.

Will save me some time if I know where to go :)

Thank you.

There's a Laox shop off the Chuo Dori, one block south of the Chuo line tracks in Akihabara. Head south on the main street in Akiba towards the Kandagawa River. Before you reach the river, there's a street that heads left. Take that and about half a block on the left side is a Laox store. There are quite a few models in that 7 floor toy store.

Then there's Yamashiroya Toy Store on the south exit of Ueno Station. There are quite a few models in one of the floors there.

Also the Tamiya store could be good too.

These two are in Tokyo.
