I just got back from a weekend in NY and that is one great city!!!
There is the http://www.toytokyo.com/ store near St. Marks place that was pretty good, although the only Macross item found was a weird barbie style Hikaru Ichijo Rick.... *_* but they did have the 1/4 size Cloud figure for $400!!!
There was also a video game store that rocked! Its http://www.videogamesnewyork.com/?page_id=87&category=40 and it had a good selection of import games and 3 foot tall Mario out front!!
Plus I highly recommend going to see the Murakami exibit
