Hey Leon, great video my friend - very informative and interesting...I was wondering if there are different "grades" of the Lion Heads? For example, is there any difference between the ones professional performers use compared to toy ones? Also, do these places also sell the tail part? Finally, was it hard to transport back? I'm going to Vietnam soon and would love to get some information.
Kevin Masters I’m no expert but, overall, I would NOT buy it from Vietnam this way again. The shipping is too much of a hassle. At the end of the day, the lion cost more if not the same. I would just get the lions from eBay, WingWai, or Emplion. Check them out on IG. I also have a video where Tien bought one from WingWai.
@@LeonTruong Thanks Leon...I was thinking the same so your advice is much appreciated...lugging the head from the shop the airport and then home would have been a big hassle, not to mention the potential for damage would have been very high! I will look at your other videos where your son bought another head from a professional seller. Thanks again pal!
The verdict right now is that it is NOT. Unless you are willing to carry that on the plane yourself. The shipping has too much hidden fees for it to be worth the headache
in every vietnam city there is quite few lions head shop , heck if you come to vietnam in mid autum festival time ( trung thu ) you will see lion dance everywhere lol so there is big enough demand for lion head , gear that in each city there is more then 1 shop
We had people that pointed us in the right direction. The rest was just us walking the streets. Most business together in the same area, so if you see one, usually there are other shops around. We got lucky and found the shop that actually Make the lion for the other shops....which is #2 in the video.
Extremely good quality but most lion dance groups uses lions from master siow from Malaysia Umm because master siow is a trained person but sometimes he could be extremely rude
My finding was that all the lion dance shops are fairly the same price. The shipping is around $180-$200 to ship to USA. I recommend #2 in the video. They actually make the lions. But I don't recommend doing any custom lions. Just buy the one that is off the shelve so you can at least know what you are getting. This is the one I recommend: d.pr/i/15d2Cl His Email: tiennguyen198999@gmail.com Phone Number: 0903859729
I actually bought my lion in the First or second shop you showed I forgot which one they all look similar my brother hooked him up with a. Certain design so it’s more durable and way better for extreme performances
They said shipping cost $200. But I am finding out it's more than expected. Still waiting to know exactly how much the whole thing will cost. I'll update when I get it.
why black and white? i mean traditionally (when it was used for martial arts), those who use black and white ones means to challenge others or accept any one's challenge (as in fighting)
anh nguyen due used google or facebook and ask local vietnamese ( there plenty of vietnamese group in facebook , heck there is group for each city ( aka saigon, da nang , hanoi vv ) :) there plenty of lion seller shop in every city mate from 1tier city to the 4 tier city / town
Leon Truong a white and red one hohoho no way and it's only 2 million dông which in my country is only 4,000 php I would go to Vietnam to buy some lâns cuz in my. Country(Philippines) Chinese lions are expensive compare to American ones 15,000 php for brighter colors

Edmund Wong yea they are really good
I want say big thank you to Leon for showing me where to bought the Lion Dance equipment from Vietnam in location 2
Can u share the contact details and location
Howdy. Did you ever get the final price after customs? Im leaving Vietnam in a two days and wonder if it's worth buying over here.
The verdict right now is that it is NOT. Unless you are willing to carry that on the plane yourself. The shipping has too much hidden fees for it to be worth the headache
Jam Ham If your gonna buy any Lions from vietnam buy it from Quang Arts
one question, where is that place or city?
I don’t remember, it’s in the middle of Ho Chi Minh
I'm Vietnamese and this summer I'm going to see my grand parents in Vietnam I hope I can buy a lion dance head
Hey it’s my account that I accidentally deleted
Whenever I am buying Lion I probably will go to Vietnam and buy them cause the Lion prices are cheap compared to here
you need to shop at @no limit arts and gifts and record it...ROFLLLL
I might have to visit that shop soon.
@@LeonTruong take me along!
how much would a lion costume be in vietnam and to get it shipped over to the US?
Wow first and second shop have too much lion dance
I Can’t belive it. How you know where have lion dance? :v
We have some relative that knows the area.
in every vietnam city there is quite few lions head shop , heck if you come to vietnam in mid autum festival time ( trung thu ) you will see lion dance everywhere lol so there is big enough demand for lion head , gear that in each city there is more then 1 shop
the 2nd shop's lions look nicer, and why there is a beer can in a lion's head hahahahha
It’s for the eyes

Hey Leon, were you able to bring back a lion with you on airplane?

Wow 🤩
Where did you find a place in Vietnam
4:20 that lion looks cool
Nearby Á Đông restaurant, there are many shops for these lions
Hey Leon! Nice vlog, I was wondering how you discovered all the locations that sold lions?
We had people that pointed us in the right direction. The rest was just us walking the streets. Most business together in the same area, so if you see one, usually there are other shops around. We got lucky and found the shop that actually Make the lion for the other shops....which is #2 in the video.
I'm going to Vietnam this summer I'm going to try and find location one and location two to find a lion
Jaden Pham make sure you take some videos!!!!
I love lion dance when i was 4 years .
6.10 I love it so many lion dance and so nice
Yes, that was our favorite shop. We ended up doing a lot of business. Hopefully I will see what the lion look like in a few weeks.
Extremely good quality but most lion dance groups uses lions from master siow from Malaysia
Umm because master siow is a trained person but sometimes he could be extremely rude
Woah gaming don’t go there that dude was rude. Go to Quang Arts it’s a great place
Woah gaming go on Facebook and search Quang Arts Trading
Ok
Charlie Nguyen emplion.com?
Charlie do i message them if i want a lion? Quang Arts Trading
Do you know where the best place is to get a lion in Saigon that’s good quality (not to much dong)?
My finding was that all the lion dance shops are fairly the same price. The shipping is around $180-$200 to ship to USA. I recommend #2 in the video. They actually make the lions.

I actually bought my lion in the First or second shop you showed I forgot which one they all look similar my brother hooked him up with a. Certain design so it’s more durable and way better for extreme performances
LOL yea, they all look the same.
Leon Truong yup and I think there is way more shops then 3
Hey guys, I‘m also searching for some lion costume. Do you still know the addresses of the shops? Thank you in advance! :D
The shop which you recommend do they sell the lion pants, shoes and belt?
I dont have a recommendation yet. I am still waiting on my Lion to arrive. I will make a video and let you know if I recommend them or not.
How much is shipping fee
They said shipping cost $200. But I am finding out it's more than expected. Still waiting to know exactly how much the whole thing will cost. I'll update when I get it.
Were you in Saigon cause apparently all lion shops look similar
I literally went to the three exact same ones when I was there lol
😂
We’re did you get the lion costume form
I've been there before
And I'm vietnam
Can you tell me the locations please 🥺

Most dance lion stores are in District 5 where most Chinese live.
Where was the location?
WHERES THE LION VIDEO IM SO EXCITED I CANT WAIT

How much for dollar?

2.2m dong worths less than a 100 dollars
Thank you for telling
Now Thats i saw The Vid I Want One.

Kimmo 91 check the info in the descriptions
Mate they literally don't have this in Aus
Drave Gaming they do have it but not in my state I’m in a lion dance team myself in aus but yeah lion dancing isn’t as big as it was. Before
@@kimmo9127 I've been I ausiee for 16 yrs! Never seen one in Melbourne
Drave Gaming are you talking about the stores that sell this or you haven’t seen a performance
I been to the first shop you showed I like the. But none in black and white
why black and white? i mean traditionally (when it was used for martial arts), those who use black and white ones means to challenge others or accept any one's challenge (as in fighting)
Aw lucky my mom is in Vietnam right now and she can’t find any shops with lions like those
