This is only one section of the show, this part of the week is essentially the "trade show", on Friday they will allow school groups to attend. Finally on Saturday and Sunday is the "big event" where the general public is allowed in, concerts etc happen. In addition, the other half of the convention hall opens on the weekend showing modeling groups all over Japan and the world displaying their group works, in addition to the model flea market this weekend. Tamiya is also having their open house this weekend, you can walk to Tamiya HQ from the convention center in about 15-20 minutes.

Can I just say THANK YOU for going slow, filming at such a great pace! So many videos of people in amazing model/toy locations and they move so fast it blurs or I cannot really get a good look at what is what. I feel like I'm checking out all the booths, in no hurry. Thank you!

[@catlady8324]

Andy’s technique is very good! Even the neutral music is just right.

[@jamescharlton924]

What was going through your mind seeing your Tiger 1 there? I must say ICM, Miniart and Masterbox especially a massive thank you! All that is happening and you still serve up the best kits to us. Well done all thank you Andy for this video

[@tokyochannel2020]

In addition, across the street from Shizuoka Station is a place called "HOBBY SQUARE" it is a mini museum with plastic models that showcases Shizuoka City's history to the hobby genre, well worth a visit since it's across the street from the main train station.

[@jerryjeromehawkins1712]

Thanks for taking us along for the ride Andy!!! 👍🏽🇺🇸

[@elkysunnykuri]

HI, Andy!! Well came to Japan!! I hope you can enjoy everything in Japan.

[@tomlavelle8340]

[@bilplaymo6121]

Amazing Japenese Trip, the Fatherland of best model kits ! Many thanks to share your exploration,in more my level of Japnese speaking is not enought good to go there😊 ! thanks for your "sacrifice" 👍, Take care

[@brianschwark4990]

Thank you Andy, must have been wonderful to meet those gentlemen. And all those cool kits !

[@mrstacyj9496]

So interesting. Thank you for sharing. I personally appreciate the quiet soundtrack music.

[@kevinhuber8723]

Bucket List must for Me. Thanks so much for sharing your experience.

[@fotomakr]

Wow! What a model Mecca!

[@jamestiberiuskirk5994]

I really like how the vendors are coming out with more concept kits.

[@htc4898]

Thank you.

[@michaele1407]

great show Andy, thanks

[@arkbuilder2012]

Loved seeing ICM, MiniArt and Modelsvit still in the game! I also wish FineMolds were more readily available here. Love their stuff.

[@haoweipan667]

so am i

[@richardbaxter2057]

Thank you, I enjoyed that walk round......Loved seeing your Tiger 1 and Easy Eight there to....what a thing to lead with! 👍🏻👏🏼👏🏼

[@PiperStart]

Superb, thanks for posting this video.

[@jcwoodman5285]

Sweet! I went to one of these shows in the 90s. Tokyo is amazing & the people are fantastic but its exhausting 😅

[@monkeyhobbies]

Really nice show! Greetings from Ecuador 🇪🇨

[@norikotakaya14292]

Awesome! Glad to see Hasegawa is coming out with some new Macross model kits, especially in the Gerwalk and Battroid modes of the original VF-1 Valkyries!

[@ericng5707]

Sorry to say those are all older kits on display. Even the red battroid marketed as a new release is an old kit that just has a few new parts added.

[@robertgorsky9091]

Such an amazing show!!! I live here in Shizuoka, and I visit the Tamiya HQ often.

[@gbresaleking]

Any model kits you want from the states that you can't get in Japan easily ? I'll trade you for some Japanese kits lol

[@brokenplanet7948]

Brilliant Andy, thanks for sharing with us 👍

[@yattaran1484]

Thank you for posting every interesting videos !. Have a wonderful stay in Japan.👍

[@mytdck1]

[@zulerodoeht329]

First things first, I must admit that I am envious. Wow is all I have to say. Thanks for the video. I love your Tiger !

[@terryvallis1436]

[@fe5106]

ようこそ日本へ！^_^ いつか、あなたのお店にも行ってみたいです！！

[@alanmoffat4454]

A LITTLE BIT OF EVERYTHING FOR EVERYONE ELSE JUST OUTSTANDING THANKS .

[@leokimvideo]

Too short looking at Thunderbirds, that large Mole looked amazing

[@marceloquiroga7221]

Excelent video Andy, , thanks for showing

[@LionelLZJ]

Thank you for this video. I'm staying in Tokyo, i will visit it the hobby show this weekend!

[@mikemontgomery2654]

I would love to go see this show some year, as well as experience Japan. Looks like you’re having a fantastic time.

[@modelcar1589]

Awesome stuff 👍🏿

[@timothydaniels504]

Thanks for this Andy. Everything is so well presented. Impressive.

[@randomnickify]

I didn't know Tamyia is a guy, thats suprising :) Thanks for slow and steady camera control.

[@MGB-learning]

Great video

[@josefhyatt2780]

Andy, I think you just died and went to model heaven!!!! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@eek0212]

thanks for the video, i used to visited there every year since 2015 but didnt have chance to visit from year 2020 I wish to have chance to visit there next year :)

[@tedr.]

Thanks Andy!! Very cool!!

[@ronclarkson6155]

Excellent coverage Andy

[@AKScaleModel]

Awesome!

[@vikinglore1066]

Ohhh the macross booth…❤❤❤

[@charlesmcclure5994]

That looks like one awesome show Andy I'll be really anxious to see what you are going to purchase to show up in your store and website 👍👍

[@snookums01]

The open days were a lot more crowded than that. Vey long queue and it rained but totally worth it! That Akagi bridge and flight deck is just begging for a place in my stash! The model show in the next pavilion was well worth the wait. Some VERY talented people showing off breathtaking models.

[@07hojee]

8:10 is the most highly anticipated motogp ducati bike, the most important and waited for all tamiyas lover, I don't know why skip that

[@goforitpainting]

Cool as always.

[@toddbridges8834]

And imagine the world of freebies at that show…. A dream trip indeed!!!!!

[@jonathonherring5841]

Hey Andy, ya gonna get the Kamizukuri paper plants for your website? 🙏🙏Those look amazing and varied! Great video!

[@trevoreb]

Thanks for the tour, if you happen to see a 1982 Datsun Nissan 200SX Gazelle S110 that would make my day preferably 1:10. I’ve found 1/64 also scifi items of any sort

[@StuffedToys]

welcome to Japan😊

[@rickanderson2372]

Will you be bringing some of those Tamiya neckties back to sell in your store? I'll take the F-14 one please!

[@jwaller51]

VERY interesting new subjects! So when are you getting all of this in stock??? 🙂

[@MikeUSA67]

😄

[@Jackbyrne77]

Great content Andy!! Thank you for posting. Great to see a new 1/12 Formula 1 car kit (1987 Lotus 99T). The box art on that Lotus 99T is just a complete rip off of the Tamiya 1/12 box art. Surely Ramiya would take issue with this? Can’t blame the other companies though given Tamiya haven’t released a new 1/12 F1 kit in 31 years!! Crazy.

[@darkwood777]

Model Overload. I think I'll visit AHH and buy something now.

[@donivanpotter2762]

They have some pretty cool models.

[@AZOSSHISTORIAN]

Great video tour so far! Did the Platz booth have anything from Girls und Panzer?

[@thebobbins1735]

There are kits there I've never seen in stock here in the UK. I want all of The Things 😀

[@TheCyberMantis]

I collect little cars. I saw some MiniGT, but where is all the Tomica? 🤔

[@tomstamford6837]

Watching this video, in fact the past few from Japan, I found myself making that gurgling sound Homer Simpson makes when thinking of donuts and such!

[@ickxjacky5439]

ようこそ、静岡市へ、楽しんでください

[@Skyshark505]

Hello Andy take some good pictures and videos of things coming soon. Is there any sprue shots of the 1/72 C-17 from Kinetic

[@matthewshedden3567]

That Hasegawa F-22 👀 seemingly impossible to find one but I’m hoping for one day, glad to see it there so I know there is still a chance!

[@Flatwheels01]

Will you be there this Saturday Andy? Hopefully I will run into you for a quick chat and a picture 👍😃

[@petebutler5139]

It's pretty cool, just how quiet it is in the expo. If it were in America, everything would be behind glass from fear of people stealing their wares, and it would be so loud, you wouldn't hear your thoughts!

[@rszanger]

Tamiya booth is the best as always.

[@SourVodka]

You lucky Basterd !! Great video love the Ukraine models

[@jailsonlaurentino3797]

👏👏👏

[@darkangel1066]

Great preview show, shame about the backing music good thing you wasn't providing description of models as music was very annoying had to turn of volume!

[@johndoe-ro5hs]

I would really love some of those ties at 11:33 they're really cute, especially the one with the Zeroes!

[@Duraltia]

@15:32 Sweet! Didn't know someone was already on and about making *_KF51 Panther_* Models 😮 Immediately preordered myself a kit 😁 @23:00 Any Details on what Company makes these multilegged Mechas?

[@frilansspion]

Kotobukiya hexa gear series?

[@Duraltia]

@@frilansspionSeems to be the case - The 2nd one from the left in the back that piqued my interest appears to be a combination of what seems to be a _"Bulkarm"_ Torso, combined with not yet released Quad/Hexapod Legs and Hands/Attachments 🤔

[@flitsertheo]

13:35 Look at the 2 businessmen on the right. They are probably exchanging business cards, a Japanese custom with some ceremony as usual.

[@kevinruler93]

Where can you buy the aircraft hanger end the boot dock?

[@Jerre27]

Imagine having as a job building all these models on display.😊

[@nizalmuhammad9689]

ARMORED CORE!

[@zachnar0125]

WTH Border!!!!!! Id love to get my hands on those Japanese kits.

[@大都会KTMT]

ようこそ日本へ！

[@George_Henshaw]

That Waterline series could turn that into a huge table top sunk my battleship game.

[@thomaslore730]

What company makes those 1/72nd scale Aircraft Hangers near the end of this video and will you be carrying these when you get back to the USA???

[@forgivemenot1]

That piqued my interest too, as far as I can make out from the video the company is Kamizukuri but I couldn’t find anything online about them. Also I think they’re made out of paper if you can believe it.

[@ericng5707]

The company name is Wako Model Creative. Kamizukuri is just the name of the product line.

[@dennisgraham2447]

You Know, I've Never been to a model show. I would be in hog heaven if I ever got to though

[@arkbuilder2012]

Were there any surprises at the show? Stuff we had no idea was being released? Just curious.

[@ApeArson259]

Does anyone know the company at 6:11?? I loved the little nook dioramas!

[@jeanpatrice3548]

le plastique c est fantastique!

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@nimbotronix]

Have you recorded the Spark stand? Is Minichamps in this show? Thanks for this content🎉

[@largesmallworld]

I can picture a grandfather building a wwii battleship while the father builds an n-scale diorama and the son building a bishoujo kit.

[@gamerhalim4717]

Oh I wish to come

[@silvestersze9968]

You opened another hobby store in Japan?!… 😮

[@kuronego0715]

I would like to attend the hobby show in Japan 2024, would you mine to provide information or website about the Japan events schedule in 2024?

[@mikemccartney5248]

Are there any brands of armor models available in Japan that you don’t currently offer on your website that you might be able to bring to America?
