Exploring America's First Godzilla Store - Anime Matsuri (2019)

If you didn't know, The Godzilla Store left Tokyo for the first time this summer and came to the United States as part of Anime Matsuri in Houston Texas. In this video, I share with you my experience at the store.

LM_84 hey is there a another godzilla store in the phillipines

[@erikbagy9883]

How tall is he ? You always see him sitting down so I thought he was shorter .

[@WednesdayWorks]

So lucky! I'll have grey hair by the time a godzilla store opens in Canada...

[@Asuka980]

Lol

[@primus0348]

“don’t touch the Kiryu or Godzilla” Bruh we ain’t kids, we ain’t gonna rip the suits to shit XD

[@agodzillafan9280]

nah, i'll take the whole thing for myself.

[@diogoflopes1882]

Mothra's concept drawings 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍... Everything very organized, I loved the vlog. Thanks for giving us this tour. Brazil sends a big hug

D Man sends big hug back

Proof that DMan has legs!

[@DMan1954]

I borrowed my friend's.

[@xCanadensis]

I got a flood of Godzilla friends on Instagram and figured this had come out! Awesome preview and it was really cool to see the store again! Can't wait to see the video where you dig deeper. Sounds really exciting. Thanks so much for chatting with me. It was really cool to talk to another Godzilla fan as they're pretty hard to find in my day-to-day.

[@DMan1954]

It's my pleasure. I'm not sure if you're going to Matsuri again this year, but I'll be there again. If you do we gotta say hi.

[@xCanadensis]

@@DMan1954 I think they announced something I was interested this year but I can't recall! But absolutely! I'll have to up my game in that case haha

[@DMan1954]

@@xCanadensis All I know is that the Godzilla store will be back and will be much larger. So I'm going to check it out. lol

[@xCanadensis]

@@DMan1954 ahhh that's great to hear! I figured it was just for the anniversary so I'm glad it'll be a staple now! We had one pop-up in Austin last year too and I was just so spoiled by it

Hey that guy looks familiar but now I have no hair. 3:21

I see you've kept the Jason Vorhees profile picture. Respect. It was awesome getting to meet you, man. I hope to see you again this year!

[@Hitman-bl4yd]

I really want a store like this in London.

[@Tiga_UltraSuperiorGojira]

Kiryu?! My favorite mechaG design?! Only fits people that are 5'3"? Wait I'm 5'3"! I gotta get me one of those

[@jacktorrance1987]

Here's Johnny!! Store: Put him out!! 😂

[@jacktorrance1987]

thank you so much for the like D man..and you didn't put me out!!..😁

[@ChrisStan66]

They need a (deleted or extra) scene in GvK of one of the fights with D Man standing there in the background critiquing them. Have G and K stop and look at him nervously while D Man tells them whats up.😂

[@DMan1954]

Damn right

[@h.plovecat4307]

"That's a problem for Future Dman"

[@DMan1954]

That's my exact mentality. lol

[@carsongodwin]

I like this intro a lot more than all the others... also I hope (I am taking some of Lovecat Productions idea) that mechagodzilla has an earth shattering roar that MUTO Prime has, and then it is an attachment to Godzilla, but it makes Godzilla weaker, because he doesn’t know how to use weapons (I am the same person as Chuck Godwin) when I make a movie I want to have Godzilla be a human monster hybrid (like venom) and that gets explained at the start, then in part two there will technically be 5 Godzillas (two mechagodzillas one evil Godzilla and two good Godzillas) but the mechagodzillas combine with the good godzillas, but they actually know how to use their weapons since they are half human half monster. This ended up longer than I thought it would be

[@JawsMan]

That's crazy that you were just standing next to me when I was going over the rules. I had no idea the time lol. I'm really happy that I got to meet you twice, once here and at G-Fest. I hope that you'll come to this year's convention. Sucks to know that it's the same time as G-Fest

[@DMan1954]

I can't say much... but I have a feeling you and I will be seeing each other again this summer ;)

Haha, I saw myself in the line for the store lol, I spent around $600 at the Godzilla Store that day and about $400 more on Godzilla stuff scattered around in the other booths. I hear the Godzilla Store is coming back again this year and its going to be even bigger.

[@DMan1954]

It will be much bigger this year! And that's awesome, lol. You should have said hi so I could feature in the video.

Is this store cool? What can you buy? Is it all just Japanese?

[@DMan1954]

It's pretty sweet. It's a Godzilla Store, so everything there relates to Godzilla and Toho. Technically, it's not all Japanese because they have some American Godzilla stuff. But it's all Kaiju related. The convention had other stuff. There was lots of Japanese stuff, mostly anime, but there was a fair amount of Marvel and Star Wars things there.

[@epicmasterlegend8345]

D Man1954 is that Godzilla store like a comic con but with all everything including Toho media and other stuff like Kaiju
