Hi everyone!
This is a general post to all our friends, but with kindest regards.
TokyoToys Staff would like to link hands and group hug everyone who came and gave us their support, especially our friends on the forums! We were so nervous on the day, MCM being only our second Expo and our very first time amongst the Anime stores. The only word i can find is OVERWHELMED... with how friendly & welcoming everyone was! You guys rock and i am so happy to be in the anime business because of YOU!
We felt completely at home! So fun and warn chatting to everyone when i had a bit of breather space. I hope we added some fun to the event & those who were given free sweets enjoyed them ^______^.
Our aim has always been "make it fun!" and fans like yourself who really love anime certainly make the event so! With your support we want to make Anime the greatest hobby to be involved in! We have many wacky ideas for future shows (yup we will be at most events). Please write to us with ideas and suggestions of what we could do to improve our service.
Big cheer to all the cosplayers, you are amazing! The standard was sky high and so many... everywhere i looked ^_____^ . We will have the pics online on our website by end of week.
Special hellos to Michael, Naomi, Paul, Wing, Emily, Rachel who i spoke to at length
I always personally reply to all emails... erm anything you want to know!
Hideki ^______^.
*Thank you Neon-Noir for your kind words. I am happy you felt at ease buying from us. The problem with anime toys is that the manufacture sells them in equal units of all the characters. This applies to 99% of all the toys made. So we can't say we want X No. of Sephiroth and X of....
Sephiroth started at £16 at our 'plot'... thats a great price, even the people on ebay can't match us for it (when i last checked). but Sep sold twice as fast as the other two so we had no choice but to up his price gradually. At the end of the day the last few went at £25. We could have sold them from the start at £25 but thats not the TokyoToys way!
We can't have Anime Fans to go home unhappy! Unlike that other seller you spoke about we never force anything on our customers as Anime Toys are more than just toys, they are the coolest characters that we all have made a emotional bond with.
Our suppliers understand we want our toys in MINT condition, hence 99% of our toys will be in perfect packaging. We make an extra effort to store them carefully. It can be difficult and some do get dented on the journey to and back from expos, but most make the trip ok!
Hideki ^^
