    how recent is your 188 info?

    188 is mostly and substantially games, comics (and ahem, porn). Long gone were the days where there were a large amount of toy shops there.

    just came bak, wat u said is tru, but if u look, dere r still some toy shops, albeit quite small ones, I did see alternity bumblebee/cliffjumper for HK$225 each which was da cheapest I could find, binatech (for outrageous prices), henkei (for more modest prices), halloween mickey for HK$300 something and limited range of rotf stuff. But these prices r all scattered, so u hav to look around and ask

    Thanks! 8D
    christalcase is right, Sun Woh is at 582-592 Nathan Road. Nathan Road is a very long road. So come out at Mong Kok station and then search for Nathan Road.

    Directions for Sui Man (also called CTMA building)
    0. Sui Man is on this street called "Sai Yeung Choi Gai" (it's a pedestrian only street where they sell lots of electronic goods)
    1. When you are at Sun Woh and facing Nathan Road (with Sun Woh behind you), turn left and walk till you see a lane/little road.
    2. turn left into little lane/road.
    3. turn left again when you reach the next road (its less than 2 mins walk).
    4. you will now be on the street that Sui Man is on.
    5. Look around, you should see an Ajisen Ramen and also a 4th floor window display with lots of model kits (chances are you'll also see a large Gundam, which hopefully is still there).
    6. Sui Man is almost directly opposite Ajisen Ramen.

    That's the best I can think of to get you there.

    I also highly recommend making a trip to Inn's Point at 530-544 Nathan Road, Yau Ma Tei. Arguably, there's even more stuff there than Sui Man.

    Yup, but these are all the recent stuff. Like Jgon said, where G1 is concerned, forget about HK - there just isnt any left (dunnoe why).
