HI there, I will be going to Tokyo in 2 weeks, how can I buy tickets in advance to the store? Seems like it needs a Japanese name and address to register? Thanks in advance.
@Kenneth: To my knowledge, the way to get tickets @ japan's local 7-Eleven during the first few days of each month, and then they will draw and provide each ticket a timeslot for entering the GFT. For foreigners to acquire these tickets is pretty hard.
@G.G. Thanks for the info, sadly though :( Is the GFT a museum and a store or are they separate? I mean which part requires to have a ticket to enter? Is there a Gundam Cafe there or something as well?
@Kenneth: No prob. The only thing that needs ticket is the Gundam Front Tokyo showroom (1/1 Strike Freedom Gundam, 1/1 Core Fighter and other displays)
Things that does not need ticket: 1/1 Gundam Statue, Gundam Cafe, Gunpla Tokyo (The section of GFT where they show all the gunpla that had ever been produced), STRICT-G (Gundam brand premium clothing). And since these are all located at Diver City, which is a pretty good size shopping center w/ great fool selections. So you definitely won't get bored even if you can't get into GFT Showroom.
@Kenneth: Oh and if you want to get a HG 1/144 RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. GFT 7-Eleven Color. Visit the 7-Eleven inside Diver City, they have plenty in stock. Hardly any other 7-Elevens in Tokyo sells them, and some only sell them based on reservation. Just some more info for you.
G.G. You are THE BEST!! Thanks again!! :) I am sure gonna be getting a lot of Gundam souvenirs then!! ;) Hopefully they have a lot of kits that are not sold outside of Japan for sale there then!? :)
You spent an awful lot of time around Diver City :). I wish I can do that.
