Here is some text explaining it from Hideki himself about the new store!
The staff at TokyoToys are so proud & excited to announce we will be opening our new Superstore in Trocadero, Piccadilly Circus, London! It is about 4 times as big as our current store! We aim to make it the centre for anime/manga/computer gaming in London!
Our shop is hosted by the iMaginations centre. Featuring an internet cafe and seating. It is a purpose built shop with a 180 degree all glass shop front. This will allow us to build the most amazing display! Opposite our shop is a Cinema and the biggest Arcade in the UK, Funland. The opportunities are enormous!
By Train: Get off at Charing Cross Station. The it’s less than 10mins walk via leicester square.
By Tube: Get off at Piccadilly Circus Underground. Then follow walkway leading directly inside the Trocadero Center. Once inside ride on escalator up to our shop.
We recommend families center via the back entrance on Shaftesbury Avenue. It is the position marked by the red pin on our googlemap link. An escalator will take you directly outside our shop!
For those who would like to pay a visit (say NeoBlade sent you!) then you can use this handy Google Maps link to get there. The opening was last night and seemed pretty busy! Here are some images of the event.
Sadly I could not attend so I would like to hear from those that did manage to make it to the event to share your thoughts!

Cool man, sounds great! Not in London very often, but will deffo check it out next time I’m that way on. Got a place we can retreat to in West Sussex, and is only about 30mins to london by train. Probably going down during summer shutdown at work.

hello,
Jan 07, 2008, 5:36 pmwe went on july 27th and your shop was wonderful, especially for naruto and manga fans coming from Italy, as we are.
Thanks for the picture you caught of our group in your shop; would you please send it to us, as a souvenir, for the next time we come to see you, of course. We liked very much the Naruto headbands, it would be nice to find our picture in your site!!!
(a group of teenagers with swords and headbandage… remember?)
we wish you real luck and good affairs.
Bye from Italy!
Manuel & Michel.
