Otaku stop #1: JHobby

From time to time, I’ll blog about happening places to further otaku your life

Stop #1 in a Vancouverite’s quest of Otaku-ness is JHobby. Off the path past Canada Line’s Aberdeen Station is a smaller shopping complex in Richmond called Union Square you’ll find JHobby. They have an array of figures straight from Japan, ranging from manga/anime series like “The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya”, “Gundam Wing”, “Lupin” series among many others.

The majority of my figure shopping is done here. There is also a section of monthly specials where prices are slashed up to 50%. Bring a bib, you’ll need it.

Their website for any additional information:

Incidentally, the figma of Takara Miyuki was bought from JHobby and here’s the gallery:
