    SO Crazy Japanese Toys

    I've seen this book before in a library. I love toys so I decided to buy it. It was at a very reasonable price for being used. Although it's a bit damaged. The book has great pics. Photos make uo 90% of the book, so if your looking for nice shots this is it. I think it could have at least twice the number of pages but the ones it has are good. Text is short but like I said, this book is for people who seek a great compilation of japanese toy pictures.

    Beautiful Japanese TV characters toys pictures

    A very interesting choice of toys shot with style. I just regret there are not Toho characters toys depicted. Without a single godzilla shot, the title is a bit too general. Anyway, a book to have!
