Trust the Japanese to Know Cool Toys | Toys List in Video Form

There's 49 of them cool toys in this video.

Trust the Japanese to know cool when it comes to toys.  Heck, we'll forever be grateful to them for giving us Famicom and Gameboy and Wii, and game titles such as Super Mario Bros., and the insatiable Pacman, and a host of other video games that made our childhood all the more fun.  And who can forget the Tamagotchi too?  But they just never stop, and instead keep on giving and giving.


I bet it'd be such bliss to visit a toy store--any toy store--in Japan.   Makes you wish you were in Japan.  I bet it'd be nicer if I can spend the night in said toy store after closing time.  

Wait, I take that back--I'm still haunted by that episode of Are You Afraid of the Dark? where the pinball-machine-obssessed boy gets trapped inside a mall at closing time.  Later he later finds out that he has become a player in the giant pinball machine which is the entire mall, and he must elude the bad guys and play forever and ever.
