Any tips on interesting toy shops or places to visit in Amsterdam or Paris? I will be there later this year!

When you are in Paris: www.lulu-berlu.com/dhtml/home.php?id=294&titre=The%20Shopalso found tis one (about Lulu): www.millionaireplayboy.com/toys/luluberlu.phpI bought lots of vintage stuff there 10 years ago, when I was regularly in Paris. Now they have a much bigger shop, they are quiet expensive. There was another Toy Shop at the Rue Oberkampf, but I think its closed. I also found some vintage tin robots, shogun warriors, action figures etc on the big flea-market (also long time ago) at Saint-Ouen www.parispuces.com/en/Default.aspBut I think meanwhile its very "touristic", but you could have a "lucky day" and find something. Warning! This flea market is very big. apropos Gaiking (when I see your tatoo). I bought my first loose GA-51 Gaiking in Paris (at Lulu-Berlu)

Chogoman, thank you for the info!!! I actually never got a GA-51 as a kid. I always wanted it though. Gaiking was my favorite show on TV, every friday morning I would be glued to the TV.

Yeah I am pretty psyched. Luckily I have a great girlfriend who likes going to toy stores as well. Also can't wait to check out Disneyland Paris' Space Mountain... it has upside down loops!

Amsterdam and Chogokin don't match, however toy store do. I am pretty sure there are plenty of those "toy stores".
