A trip to Japan

I had a quick work trip to Japan recently, a destination I love. This time it was Tokyo and I had a few hours to myself exploring. I try to walk around when possible, to find interesting nooks and crannies.

I also made a special effort to get to Warhammer Tokyo, the flagship store in Japan. It had some fabulous staff, a cafe, and some wonderful models on display. I particularly liked the Japanese posters and artwork - sadly these aren't available for purchase though!

Impressive Legio Fureans family portrait!

The Cafe was a nice addition, and somebody had fun with the menu (below)

Always wanted one of these - bigger than I thought!

The Red Angel

Just for you Reilly - bros together!

Really impressive Chaos Reaver Titan

This Warhound Titan was probably my favourite display piece (amongst tough competition!)

Other shopping highlights included:

Endless stores filled with Gundham of course!

I paint model soldiers so I don't throw stones at other people's hobbies, but a whole shopping district filled with these this was rather amazing

And of course, the one and only...

Tokyo Tower was a great perch from which to look down upon MegaCity 1. At 333m tall, it was inspired by the Eiffel Tower and was the largest free standing tower of its day

But anywhere in Tokyo by night is a delight

I always enjoy exploring the culinary delights too!

Whale - delicious!

Horse - also tasty, kinda like beef

And no trip to Tokyo is compete without a beer at the Asahi brewery! (with the beer froth cloud on top!)

or my new favourite hole-in-the-wall: BEERZILLA!!!

Yes, I bought one of the beer glasses to take home!

Thank you Japan - I'll be back for a holiday with Mrs Man Cave ASAP (she was super jelly!)
