CRAZY BUMP Inc., which organizes and operates exhibitions themed around subcultures such as manga, anime, and tokusatsu, is pleased to announce the first wave of merchandise information for the 'TO-Y 40th Anniversary POP UP STORE in Moriguchi.'
Set against the backdrop of the 80s music industry, Atsushi Kamijo's stylish and pop art style, revolutionary musical expression, and the passionate emotions of beloved characters intersect. 'TO-Y,' an immortal masterpiece serialized in 'Weekly Shonen Sunday' from 1985 to 1987, captures the 80s music scene as experienced by charismatic indie band vocalist Toui Fujii, preserving the atmosphere of that era perfectly. Following its 40th anniversary in 2025 and a successful run at Hakaba no Garou in Nakano Broadway, this masterpiece—which influenced not only the comic industry but also countless future musicians—is coming to the Keihan Department Store Moriguchi branch!
This POP UP STORE will feature charming characters like Toui Fujii, Niya, Yoji Aikawa, and the members of GASP, presented with the unique flair of Hakaba no Garou. With displays packed with famous scenes and quotes, the event will fully recreate the world of 'TO-Y' for both long-time fans and new generations alike.
Furthermore, we will offer official band merchandise for groups like 'GASP' and 'Penicillin Shock,' including staples like T-shirts, jackets, and bandanas, as well as collectible items such as acrylic keychains, stickers, and pin badges. We have also prepared fancy goods inspired by the 80s, along with many other original items filled with a love for music.
This is a special project dedicated to all music and 'TO-Y' fans, allowing you to reunite with a world that still resonates today, 40 years later. The password is: 'Crush the boredom!'
