Guess I should really finish that Idoling merchandise guide

Akiba has indeed so many shops that you really need to know where to look, especially as Akiba is filled with AKB merch in terms of idol groups... (could have changed a bit since January)
That shop in Akiba, is Shosen Book Tower. On the 6th,7th or 8th floor (I forgot which one...) you'll find a huge selection of PB, DVD, magazines, (signed) calendars & a few toreka.
Some Lammtara shops also have photobooks but selection is rather limited and you'd have to look through a maze of very narrow corridors filled with all sorts of other stuff, but regular idol stuff (read: non AV) is usually on the ground floor (1F).
Ishimaru No. 2 where there was also the event space and a small section of idol dvds & PB got closed down, so I don't know to which Ishimaru shop they relocated that to.
Again, Nakano Broadway has the best overall selection. On my last day last time, I did find another shop in Radio Kaikan in Akiba that sold full sets of toreka, but since Radio Kaikan is getting demolished to build a new building, all the shops are relocated temporarily so I don't know where that is now...
About FujiTV, I made the same mistake the first time of going to the shop upstairs. it wasn't until I discovered there was a variety shop downstairs. Back in January 2010, they still had quite some stock (although still rather old), and one year later I went there again with kei_86, they were the left overs from the year before and nothing new was added. The only new thing were the official Idoling toreka and folders at the counter. I will look again next time, but I'm expecting almost nothing is left now. It's sad to see that FujiTV isn't just putting their left over stock in that shop.
Nice to see a fellow Yazawa fan
Edit:Seems like my "Tokyo Idol Guide" (although slightly Idoling oriented

) already was 4 pages long + general introduction. Will edit it a bit and post it this evening.
