Thanks for the Recommendations. Was going to spent the morning in Ueno Zoo. Now I can check this out.

I'm planning on going this coming year. but do you know where I can find used digivices? or which store would carry them?

[@CantoExplorers]

Mandarake shown in this video is probably your best bet. I saw some Digimon 2nd hand merch. I would also check the Shibuya & Akihabara locations too. I know old digivices are hard to find nowadays, the newer plastic ones are all over Amazon/hobby sites

@@CantoExplorers thank you! 💕💕💕💕
