TOKYO TOWER WAX MUSEUM GIFT SHOP



I went to the TOKYO TOWER MAX MUSEUM the other day and as well as having half the wax museum dedicated to Krautrock artists such as Manuel Gottsching and Klaus Schulze for not reason what so ever the gift shop was even stranger. They have a William & Kate display next to Can t-shirts for sale and also magazine cuttings of Taggart (a 80s/90s British detective TV show) framed next to Argento Suspiria t-shirts. Nuts! Oh yeah, and they also have Yoda wearing a Deep Purple cap.

Wow, this sounds great! And I thought NYC had the craziest shops...

Thanks to you Jiro, I hopped to Tokyo last week and visited this shop. It was bizarre! They got extensive Krautrock CDs and the shop assistant seems a bit trippy. Tried to but the Can t-shirt but my size is sold-out. Daijobu.

Yeah the workers there were a bit odd, they wouldn't let me walk back into the museum when I was in the gift shop even when I showed them my ticket, he pretty much escorted me out of the shop and to the lift.
