Akihabara Gunpla Shopping Route 2025 | Complete Guide to New Used Shops! The Perfect Order to Visit Them!

Came to Akihabara to buy Gunpla but there are so many stores, I don’t know where to go!!
For those feeling this way, I’ve created an efficient route for visiting Akihabara’s Gunpla stores – please use it as a reference.

Akihabara Gunpla Store Shopping Route

Yodobashi Camera Multimedia Akiba – Points Rewards Available

First, exit JR Akihabara Station and head to “Yodobashi Camera Multimedia Akiba”
The Gunpla section is in the hobby corner on the 6th floor, with a large sales area.
However, being a famous store with slight discounts and 10% point rewards, competition is high and popular items sell out quickly.
On new release days, there are often waiting lines to purchase.
Consider yourself lucky if you can buy what you want here first.

Otachu Akihabara Store #4 Gundam Specialty Shop – Used Items Available

Right in front of JR Akihabara Station’s Electric Town exit, “Otachu Akihabara Store #4 Gundam Specialty Shop” mainly deals in used Gundam-related items.
Recommended for those who want Gunpla regardless of price, as many items are premium collectibles.

There are also gacha machines, so try your luck if you enjoy that kind of chance-based shopping.
