Where do I get sirotan character stuff?
 

I'm in Tokyo now and at finding sirotan character toys for a friend. Was at tokyo station character street but didn't find any. Anyone have an idea? Much appreciated.

Fads and fashions move on, but the last time I remember seeing lots of shirotan toys was at Haneda International, just don't recall if it was last year or the year before that.

Just checked - still there!

Thanks for the quick reply. I won't be departing through hnd. Any other option in town?

You haven't said where in Tokyo you're based

Here's a list - you'd need to concentrate on the places with a phone number beginning 03-

Thanks! I'm staying in asakusa.

Since one of the other two Tokyo shops is in Odaiba and the other is in the Western suburbs, the Shinagawa shop seems to be the most convenient. It's very close to Shinagawa station on the Yamanote "loop" line.

Does seem that the store in Haneda (which is very small) is the only one dedicated to this character. The selection of Shirotan branded items at Shinagawa might be disappointing. Am pretty sure I bought a kinetic ham eating Ponyo bath toy at Shirotan Town in Haneda, so even here there wasn't enough white seal produce to solely stock the shop.

Just a followup. Did in the end go to Shinagawa outlet and they had a reasonable number of options available. Did manage to get my stuff.

FYI. Read about the ramen street nearby and was disappointed that 6 of the 8 stores were under renovation.

Glad you accomplished your mission - thanks for the report back.
