From October 26 through November 7, the the Tobu Department Store Ikebukuro will host a Tokusatsu DNA pop-up store on its 8th floor. Naturally, the store features many items that I haven't seen for sale anywhere else. The coolest part of all, however, was seeing a couple of Toho props from the late '90s, namely Shinichi Wakasa's original upper-body Godzilla suit used for underwater shooting in Godzilla 2000 (1999), and Shinichi Wakasa's King Ghidorah neck guignol (puppet) from Rebirth of Mothra III (1998). So, instead of a thousand words, here are almost as many photos -- enjoy!
