Event Timing and Venue
TAMASHII NATION is usually held every year **Held in the autumn from October to November. The event typically lasts for 2 to 3 days, often scheduled to include weekends and holidays, making it convenient for those with work or school commitments.
The venue is a large event space in Tokyo, with Bell Salle Akihabara and Ikebukuro Sunshine City being selected as locations. Akihabara is known as the electric town, and it is conveniently located for visitors to enjoy figure shop tours before and after the event. Since the specific dates and venues vary each year, be sure to check the official site for the latest information.
What You Can Do at TAMASHII NATION Events
At TAMASHII NATION events, you can mainly experience the following four things.
First, at the New Figure Exhibits, you can see prototypes and figures in development up close that have not been released yet. The major appeal is being able to check the quality of the paint and range of motion, which may not be obvious from product photos. For those who want to learn more about each series such as S.H.Figuarts and ROBOT Spirits, please refer to the 【Related Articles】Complete Guide to All TAMASHII NATIONS Series.
Next, with Venue-Specific Purchases, you have the chance to buy special color or limited edition figures that are only sold at the event venue. Popular items are often sold through a lottery system, and if you win, you can obtain a valuable item.
Additionally, in the Developer Talk Shows, staff members involved in the development of each series come on stage to discuss new product announcements and behind-the-scenes stories. There is also an opportunity to ask questions directly to the developers, making it a valuable opportunity for fan interaction.
Finally, at the Photo Spots, you can take commemorative pictures alongside life-sized figures and large dioramas. This is a popular area for visitors, as it allows for Instagram-friendly photos, often resulting in lines of many attendees waiting to take their pictures.
Differences with TAMASHII Cyber Fes (Online Event)
In recent years, TAMASHII NATION has introduced the online version of TAMASHII Cyber Fes. The main differences between the real event and the online event are the types of content experiences available and how limited items are obtained.
The main attraction of the regular TAMASHII NATION event, which is a real event, is that you can see actual figures up close, directly interact with developers, and feel the excitement of the venue. Additionally, figures limited to venue sales cannot be purchased without visiting the venue.
On the other hand, TAMASHII Cyber Fes allows you to participate from home, meaning that those living far away or unable to schedule time can still obtain real-time information about new products.
There are also online exclusive products for sale, but they offer a different lineup than the venue-exclusive items at real events. Both events have their own unique appeal, so it is recommended to attend both if possible.
How to Reserve Tickets for the TAMASHII NATION Event | Important Points from Start of Reservations
To participate in TAMASHII NATION, prior ticket reservation is essential. Due to its popularity, heavy traffic often concentrates immediately after the start of reservations, and it is not uncommon for preferred dates and times to be quickly filled. **To ensure your participation, it is important to check the start date of reservations in advance and be prepared to make a reservation at the moment they begin**.
Here, we will explain the ticket reservation process step by step, from choosing the reservation site to specific procedures and tips for selecting dates and times. We will provide detailed explanations, including precautions, so even first-timers can make reservations smoothly.

Ticket Reservation Sites and Start Times
Ticket reservations for TAMASHII NATION are mainly conducted through the official site or **e+ (e-plus)** and other ticket sales sites. The reservation method may vary from year to year, so be sure to check the official site for the latest information.
The reservation start period is usually set to be **1 to 2 months before the event**. For example, if the event is held in October, reservations often start from late August to early September. The official site and social media (the official TAMASHII NATIONS Twitter account) announce the reservation start date and time, so it is recommended to check regularly.
The reservation start time is often set during peak access times, such as noon or evening on weekdays, which leads to congestion immediately after the start. It is advisable to access the reservation site with ample time and complete any necessary member registrations in advance.
Ticket Reservation Procedure (Step by Step)
The basic procedure for ticket reservation is as follows.
Step 1: Access the Reservation Site
Click the link to the ticket reservation page listed on the official site to access the reservation site. If using a ticket sales site like e+, it is smoother if you complete member registration (free) in advance.
Step 2: Select Desired Date and Time
Choose the desired date and entry time during the event period. Typically, the event is divided into morning sessions (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) and afternoon sessions (1:00 PM - 5:00 PM), with a limit on the number of entries in each time slot.
Step 3: Input Ticket Quantity and Personal Information
Select the number of tickets you wish to purchase and enter the necessary information such as name, email address, and phone number. Be careful to check the entered information, as errors may prevent entry on the day of the event.
Step 4: Select Payment Method and Complete Payment
Choose from available payment methods such as credit cards, convenience store payments, or electronic money, and complete the payment. After payment is complete, a reservation confirmation email will be sent to your registered email address.
Step 5: Save Your Ticket
For electronic tickets, present the QR code from a smartphone app or email on the day of the event. For paper tickets, you will need to have them mailed or issued at a convenience store.
Tips for Choosing Entry Date and Time
The choice of entry date and time greatly affects how you enjoy the event. The optimal date and time will differ based on whether you want to avoid crowds or prioritize purchasing limited items.
Morning of the First Day is recommended for those looking to secure limited items available only at the venue as the inventory is usually most abundant. However, it is also the most crowded time, and lines for entry and purchases tend to be long.
Afternoon of the Last Day is often relatively less crowded, making it suitable for those who want to take their time viewing the exhibits. However, popular limited items are likely sold out, so it is safer to avoid this time if your goal is to purchase limited items.
Weekday Event Days usually have less congestion compared to weekends and holidays, allowing for a more relaxed experience at the venue. For those who can take time off work or school, attending on a weekday is also an option.
Ticket Prices and Differences Between Advance and Same-Day Tickets
The ticket prices for TAMASHII NATION are generally around 1,000 to 1,500 yen for advance tickets. Same-day tickets may also be sold, but they are commonly set a few hundred yen higher than advance tickets, and there is also a risk of them selling out.
CLUB TAMASHII MEMBERS (paid members of the Tamashii Web Shop) may have access to early reservations and member-exclusive entry benefits. The details of member benefits vary from year to year, but there is an advantage in being able to secure tickets earlier than general reservations. For more detailed sales methods, you may find it helpful to refer to 【Related Articles】Complete Manual for Tamashii Nations Reservations at Premium Bandai.
The ticket price includes only the admission fee, and **purchases of venue-exclusive items and lottery applications require additional fees**. Also, tickets that have been purchased cannot generally be refunded, so make sure to confirm your schedule before making a reservation.
Entry Method and Reception Flow on the Day of the Event | Tips for Smooth Entry
Once your ticket reservation is complete, the next step is preparing for entry on the day. Since TAMASHII NATION is a popular event, there may be many attendees concentrated during entry, leading to longer wait times at the reception and entry. **To ensure smooth entry, it is important to check the access route to the venue in advance and arrive with plenty of time to spare**.
Here, we will explain how to access the venue, the specific flow from reception to entry, and strategies to avoid crowds. Make sure to prepare thoroughly in advance so you won’t have to rush on the day.
- Access to the Venue and Estimated Arrival Time
- Flow from Reception to Entry
- Strategies for Avoiding Crowds on the Day
Access to the Venue and Estimated Arrival Time
The Bellassal Akihabara, which is frequently used as the venue for TAMASHII NATION, is conveniently located about a 5-minute walk from JR Akihabara Station. It is also accessible from the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line's Akihabara Station and the Tsukuba Express's Akihabara Station, with multiple lines available.
Ikebukuro Sunshine City is approximately an 8-minute walk from JR Ikebukuro Station, or about a 3-minute walk from Higashi-Ikebukuro Station on the Tokyo Metro Yurakucho Line. There may be guidance signs and staff directing you from the station to the venue, but it's reassuring to check the route in advance using Google Maps or similar services.
As a guideline for your arrival time, it is recommended to arrive at the venue **30 minutes before your reserved entry time**. Since reception tends to be crowded right after the venue opens (at the start time of the morning session), arriving a bit early will allow for a smoother entry. Additionally, coin lockers around the venue often fill up quickly, so if you have large luggage, using a locker at the station is one way to handle it.
Flow from Reception to Entry
Upon arriving at the venue, follow the steps below for reception and entry.
Step 1: Stand in the Reception Line
A reception line will be formed near the entrance of the venue, so please line up according to the guidance provided. Depending on your reserved time slot, the reception line may be divided, so be sure to carefully follow the staff's instructions.
Step 2: Ticket and Identity Verification
At reception, present your ticket (the QR code for e-tickets or a paper ticket). You may be asked to show an ID for identity verification, so it is advisable to prepare your driver's license or student ID in advance for peace of mind.
Step 3: Receive Entry Pass
Once check-in is complete, wristbands or entry passes will be distributed. This must be carried with you at all times within the venue and may be checked upon re-entry, so be careful not to lose it.
Step 4: Enter the Venue
After receiving your entry pass, you can finally enter the venue. Once inside, you can freely explore the exhibition area or head to the limited item sales area.
Strategy for Avoiding Crowds on the Event Day
At TAMASHII NATION, the crowd situation varies greatly depending on the time of day. To enjoy the event efficiently, it is effective to adopt a strategy that avoids peak crowd times.
**Right after the venue opens (at the start time of the morning session)** is the busiest time, as visitors aiming to purchase limited items concentrate on arriving. If purchasing limited items is your top priority, you will need to enter the venue as it opens, but if you want to take your time viewing the exhibits, it's recommended to wait a little while.
**Mid-afternoon (around 14:00 to 15:00)** is a relatively quiet time when visitors from the morning session start to leave, and visitors for the afternoon session have not yet peaked. Targeting this time allows you to enjoy the exhibition area and photo spots at a more relaxed pace.
The **final hour before closing** sees many visitors starting to head home, which makes the venue less crowded. However, it is likely that limited items will already be sold out, and events like talk shows are often concluded, so this time slot is suitable for those who wish to focus on viewing the exhibition.
Complete Guide to Purchasing Venue-Exclusive Items|Lottery Sales and Buying Tips
One of the biggest attractions of TAMASHII NATION is the venue-exclusive figures. Special colors and limited edition products that can only be purchased at the event venue are highly coveted items for collectors. However, popular products often lead to a scramble, and the reality is that **it can be difficult to obtain them without understanding the purchasing method and the lottery system**.
Here, we will explain in detail the types of venue-exclusive items, the flow of lottery sales, and tips for successful purchases. Let's develop strategies to ensure you can secure limited items. Additionally, for more detailed purchasing methods, the 【Related Articles】Complete Guide to Purchasing TAMASHII NATIONS is also a helpful reference.

- Payment Methods and Receiving After Purchase
What are Venue-Exclusive Sales Products?
Venue-exclusive sales products are special figures that can only be purchased at TAMASHII NATION event venues. Unlike regular general sale products, they come with added value such as event-exclusive colors, special packaging, and pre-sales.
Examples of popular past limited items include special color versions of S.H.Figuarts, venue pre-sale models of METAL BUILD, and ROBOT Spirits models with exclusive effect parts. These products have unique paint jobs and accessories that differ from standard versions, and after the event, they become hard to obtain, often trading at several times their original price in the secondary market.
Details about limited items are announced on the official website before the event takes place.
It's important to list the products you want in advance and confirm the sales method (whether it's a lottery or first-come-first-served). Especially for limited items from popular series, they will become a topic of discussion on social media as soon as they are announced, so be sure to follow the official accounts to check for the latest information.
Lottery Sales Mechanism and Application Method
Many popular venue-exclusive items adopt the lottery sales method to maintain fairness. In a lottery sale, applicants can enter either in advance or on the day of the event, and only those drawn in the lottery will be granted the right to purchase.
The basic flow for lottery applications is as follows.
Application Reception
At the lottery application booth or dedicated terminal within the venue, select the products you wish to purchase and apply. Proof of entry is required for applications, and it is common for each person to apply once per product. The application reception time is usually set for a few hours after the opening of the venue, and you need to complete your application within this time.
Announcement of Lottery Results
After the application deadline, the lottery is conducted. Winning results are announced on the bulletin board inside the venue, through a dedicated app, or via email. If you win, you must complete the purchase process within the specified time.
Purchase Process
Winners will complete the purchase process at the designated sales booth. Prepare the winning proof (such as a QR code or number ticket) and payment method, and complete your purchase within the time allowed. Be careful as winning can become invalid if the purchase time is exceeded.
Tips for Winning the Lottery
Lottery sales are fundamentally based on luck, but there are strategies to slightly increase your chances of winning.
First, by participating on multiple days, you can increase your chances of entering the lottery. If an event is held for three days, you can apply for the lottery three times, which theoretically triples your chance of winning. However, this may only apply if you genuinely want the products, as there are costs for tickets and travel.
Next, apply as early as possible. The application reception is crowded right after it starts, but by completing the application earlier rather than just before the deadline, you can avoid any potential issues (like system errors).
Additionally, targeting less popular products can enhance your chances of winning. Main popular items have high competition, but limited items from relatively lesser-known series tend to be easier to win. This could also be a great opportunity to broaden your collection.
General Sales (First-Come-First-Served) Purchase Strategy
Products other than those sold via lottery can be purchased through first-come-first-served general sales. First-come-first-served sales are a straightforward method where the early bird gets the purchase, but since popular items sell out quickly, you need to act strategically.
The most certain method is to head to the sales area as soon as the venue opens. Immediately after entering, check the location of the sales booth and head there via the shortest route. Venue maps can often be checked in advance on the official site, so keeping the location of the sales area in mind can be advantageous.
Creating a purchase list in advance is also important. There is no time to hesitate at the venue. By listing the products you want in advance and prioritizing them, you can make your purchases smoothly.
In addition, collaborating with multiple people is an effective strategy. If you are attending with friends or family, dividing roles (one person views the exhibits, another stands in the sales line, etc.) allows you to enjoy the event efficiently.
Payment methods and receiving after purchase
Payments for venue-exclusive items usually accept cash or credit cards. However, some venues may only accept cash, so it is advisable to check the official website in advance and prepare sufficient cash.
Purchased items are divided into small items that can be received on the spot and large items that will be shipped later. Small figures can be picked up immediately after purchase, but large items like METAL BUILD are difficult to take home from the venue, so there may be a **delivery service to your home** available. If you wish to have items delivered, inform the staff at the time of purchase.
Additionally, purchasing items for resale purposes is prohibited. In recent years, the high resale of limited items has become an issue, and you may be asked to sign a declaration at the time of purchase. Understand the purpose of the event and observe proper etiquette while making your purchases.
How to Enjoy the TAMASHII NATION Event | From Exhibition Areas to Photo Spots
Buying limited items is not the only appeal of TAMASHII NATION. The venue is filled with content that is a must-see for figure fans, including exhibition areas for new figures, impressive photo spots, and events to interact with developers, **all of which are essential content for figure enthusiasts**.

Highlights of the New Works Exhibition Area
The New Works Exhibition Area is one of the main attractions of TAMASHII NATION. Here, you can see unreleased new figures and prototypes under development, allowing you to confirm the actual quality that cannot be discerned from product photos alone.
The displays are usually organized by series. In the S.H.Figuarts section, the latest action figures are showcased; in the ROBOT Spirits section, robot figures are displayed; and in the METAL BUILD section, ultra-high-end models are lined up. Each section features displays specific to their works, and you can also enjoy diorama displays that recreate scenes from the respective works.
Particularly noteworthy is the demonstration of movable gimmicks. Staff members may demonstrate the range of motion of the figures, allowing you to see how freely they can be posed right before your eyes. If you have a product you are considering purchasing, be sure to check the details at this exhibition.
Additionally, there may be displays of prototypes still under development. These could be items that have not yet been decided for production or secret projects that have yet to be announced, providing a special experience for fans.
Shooting Spots and Photo Sessions
At TAMASHII NATION, several shooting spots are set up throughout the venue. These popular areas allow for commemorative photos alongside life-sized figures and large dioramas.
Typical shooting spots include life-sized figures of characters like Gundam and Ultraman. The life-sized figures give an overwhelming presence, allowing for SNS-friendly photos. During weekends or at popular character shooting spots, long lines may form, so it's recommended to aim for less busy times or queue up early.
Etiquette during shooting is also important. **Please maintain order and avoid monopolizing for extended periods
In some areas, there will also be photo session events with developers or character mascots. The schedule will be announced in advance on the official site, so if you want to participate, make sure to check the times.
Developer Talk Show and New Product Announcement Events
During the event period, developer talk shows and new product announcement events will be held on a special stage within the venue. This is a valuable opportunity for fans to communicate directly with the developers.
In the talk show, the development staff of each series will take the stage and share behind-the-scenes stories about product development, the challenges they faced, and the details they were particular about. Stories like 'how much time was spent on recreating this part' and 'why this paint was chosen' will deepen your understanding and affection for the figures.
In the new product announcement events, information about new products that are being unveiled for the first time at the event venue may be announced. There are often surprise announcements, and the moments when the venue fills with cheers provide a special experience of unity.
In the Q&A corner, participants can ask questions directly to the developers. This is a chance to ask about details of products you’ve been curious about or about future series developments. However, the number of people who can ask questions is limited, so if you have something you really want to ask, it’s best to raise your hand early.
The schedule for the talk shows can be checked on the official site or on the bulletin boards inside the venue. Popular talk shows may have standing room only, so it is recommended to arrive at the venue early.
What to Bring and Important Notes for Event Participation | Preparation for Enjoying Comfortably
To enjoy TAMASHII NATION comfortably, appropriate preparation is essential. Forgetting necessary items may prevent you from entering or cause inconvenience. Additionally, it is also important to adhere to the manners and rules at the venue.
Here, we will explain in detail the essential items for event participation, convenient items to have, and important notes for the venue. Be well-prepared to enjoy the event without troubles. For those participating in a TAMASHII NATIONS event for the first time, the 【Related Articles】TAMASHII NATIONS Beginner's Guide may be helpful.
Essential Items List
When attending TAMASHII NATION, the items you must not forget are as follows.
Tickets are essential for entry. If you have an electronic ticket, make sure it can be displayed on your smartphone, and if you have a paper ticket, bring it without folding it. Remember that if you forget your ticket, you won't be able to enter, so it's advisable to check it the day before.
Identification is also important. Bring something that proves your identity, such as a driver's license, student ID, or health insurance card. Especially in cases where the name on the ticket must match the identification provided.
**A wallet (cash and credit card) is necessary for purchasing limited edition items and for food and beverages. As sales at the venue may only accept cash, it iswise to have ample cash prepared. ATMs may not always be available near the venue, so prepare in advance.
An eco-bag or a larger bag is also essential. Bring a sturdy, large-capacity bag to carry your purchased items. If purchasing multiple limited edition products, the boxes can be large, so it can be handy to bring an extra foldable eco-bag.
Convenient Items
While not essential, the following items can make your experience at the event more enjoyable.
A mobile battery helps to prevent your smartphone from running out of battery. Since you will frequently use your smartphone for electronic ticket presentation, lottery applications, photography, and more during the event, the battery tends to drain quickly.
Bringing a bottle of water or tea is convenient for hydration within the venue. There are vending machines inside, but purchasing can take time during busy periods. This is especially necessary in summer or if you plan to stay for an extended period.
A notebook and pen are useful for jotting down information about desired products or taking notes during talks. While you can use your smartphone's memo function as a substitute, using a paper notebook is also effective for saving battery.
Foldable umbrellas are essential for participating in events during unstable weather. They are useful while moving to the venue and while waiting outside the venue.
Important Notes and Prohibitions at the Venue
To enjoy TAMASHII NATION, it is important to follow the venue's rules and manners.
First, be aware of the no photography areas. Some displays and unreleased products may be prohibited from being photographed. Even in areas where photography is permitted, flash photography or video shooting may be banned, so please be sure to check the staff's instructions and posted notices.
Purchasing for resale is prohibited. Venue-limited items are only for personal enjoyment and bulk purchases for resale violate the terms. In recent years, it has become common to require a signature on a pledge form at the time of purchase as a countermeasure against resale.
Also, check the re-entry policy. Some venues may not allow re-entry. Once you exit, you may not be allowed back in, so it is advisable to confirm this on the official site in advance or ask at the reception for peace of mind.
Additionally, manners during crowded times are important. In exhibition areas and photography spots, do not forget to be considerate of other attendees. By avoiding monopolizing for long periods and enjoying the event in an orderly fashion, everyone can participate comfortably.
