All,

Going to NYC in the next month, would appreciate some hints and pointers to some good places to shop. I hear Chinatown has some good places. I Googled and found one person's guide (Sun Chan or someone like that).

Anyway, most interested in:

Collectibles/Action figures of Macross, Gundam, Patlabor

Maybe models (although I have a closet full of unbuilt ones)

Maybe some DVDs

TIA!

If you visit the Chinatown in Manhattan, there should be a few DVD stores along Bowery street near the intersection with Canal. You should be able to find a large number of anime DVD's. As for toys, the only place I know of is ImageAnime, which is quite costly.

Chinatown is hit-or-miss.

You're probably better off going to image anime on 30th st & 6th ave. They have a good selection of everything (models, yamato toys, toynami, etc.). Their prices are pretty good, and they take credit card. The store is also in a much easier to reach location.
