I have only listed those places with more hard to find Zoids related stuff like Vintage/Exclusive release of kits and CPs. I have not listed HMM Zoids and Zoids monthly as they can be found easily in most reputable toy stores. Note that I said Toy stores because its hard to find toys in department stores in Japan but whos complaining :D

World Wide Hobby Store Hunt: Hong Kong  

0 comments

Got some free time on my hand when I was in Hong kong and decided to make a compilation of toy stores in Hong Kong.
After some googling, these are what I've gotten:
1) kristykwan
2) HkModeler
3)Plamo

Without a doubt, the Mongkok area has the highest concentrate of hobby shops.
So if you only have 1 day in HK, this is the place to bet on.
