The International Tokyo Toy Show (東京おもちゃショー) is an annual event organized by the Japan Toy Association. It is the largest toy industry trade show in Japan, presently held at the Tokyo International Exhibition Center (also known as Tokyo Big Sight) in June or July of each year. The annual Japan Toy Awards (日本おもちゃ大賞) are presented at this event.[1] Until the Tokyo Game Show was spun off in 1996, the Tokyo Toy Show was also an important venue for early Japanese game developers.[2]
Bandai is a longtime participant of the Tokyo Toy Show and demonstrated prototypes of their Playdia and Pippin consoles at the 1994 and 1995 events, respectively.[3][4] Makoto Yamashina (山科 誠) became the president of The Japan Toy Association after stepping down from his executive roles at Bandai in 2004.[5][6] His father, Naoharu Yamashina (山科 直治), had previously served as the chairman of the The Japan Toy Association.[7]
