Does anyone know if there are any toy stores in Seoul that sell Japanese Toys (I'm specifically after the 80s Transformers reissues and Masterpiece editions that you can find on ebay)?

e.g. http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?sofocus=bs&sbrftog=1&from=R10&_trksid=m37&satitle=transformers+masterpiece&sacat=-1%26catref%3DC6&sargn=-1%26saslc%3D3&sadis=200&fpos=Postcode&sabfmts=1&saobfmts=insif&ga10244=10425&ftrt=1&ftrv=1&saprclo=&saprchi=&fsop=1%26fsoo%3D1&coaction=compare&copagenum=1&coentrypage=search&fgtp=

Thanks!!

YES!

I just bought a couple of EVO type Gundam robots for my nephew. The store also has Totoro and other Japanese import dolls and toys. It's located in the KOEX mall. I don't remember the name of the store, but it's there....been there three times in the last four years.

I didn't see any transformers though.


They look something like this:

In Hongdae there is a really cool store call Tomodiachi (sp?). It's hard to explain how to get there...

Coming from Sinchon, head toward Coffee Prince. Go past Coffee Prince and turn right at the next street. Walk down (toward Hongdae Sta.) and the store will be on your left.

The store has a lot of cool stuff but it's a little pricey, bearbricks are about 13,000.
