Adding another Tokyo Store to or favorites list – the Yamashiroya Toy Store in Ueno. Like Hakuhinkan in Ginza and Kiddyland if you are looking for Japanese or International toys and collectibles you will not be disappointed. Yamashiroya Toy Store is a one minute walk from Ueno station so you can add on to your trip to Ueno Zoo, Ameyoko shopping, the Shitamachi Museum or the visits to the Museums in Ueno Park. If you plan ahead, 
consider making a reservation at Innsyoutei for a lovely Japanese lunch.
Yamashiroya Toy Store, Ueno
Yamashiroya is six floors of toys, figures, games and pro-models. The store offers all the top Japanese brands with an impressive selection of pro models and anime characters. There are also huge selections of Starwars product, Lego, and Barbie. The store is very crowded on weekends so if you do plan to visit I recommend early in the morning. There is an elevator, but I recommend leaving strollers outside since the aisles are very crowded wth merchandise. Highly recommend for holiday and birthday shopping, you will not leave empty-handed.
