Bandai Co. Ltd Headquarters

Free photo spot and mini museum

The headquarters of Bandai, one of Japan's most famous toy manufacturers, is located along the Sumida River close to Kaminarimon. This is not a shop, but the actual headquarters of Bandai, but there are several lifesize Bandai character statues outside the building where you can get some fun free photos. The statues include Ultraman, Anpanman, Pac man, Doraemon, the Dragonball fella, and a couple of others. They are on the public street and as such are available 24 hours. There is also a free small museum like area inside the building, with hundreds of Bandai figures, that is accessible during office hours only.
