If you live in Taipei and is wondering where you can find tokidoki toys and apparel, well on my (very recent) trip to the city, I managed to find a couple of stores that carried the latest range of tokidoki goodies! But if you know of any other places in Taipei (or Taiwan for that matter) that sell tokidoki, please drop a comment and share the news to all!

First up - toys. I saw the tokidoki Plus Robots still up for sale at Page One bookstore located at the Taipei 101. The price is similar to Singapore’s pricing so if you realllllly want one, do drop by the store.

When I was there, Eslite (one of the biggest bookstores in Taipei) had other collectible toys but did not have tokidoki. I’m not sure if that’s because they do not carry the toys at all.

As for tokidoki apparel, make sure you check out this store located in Ximending - Million Boy Club. They have the latest tees from tokidoki (Eccomondo and Rock range) and they are quite prevalent in Taipei as well, with small corners in the major departmental stores like Shinkong Mitsukuoshi, Eslite and New York New York.

If you are staying in Taipei, Taiwan and know more places where you can buy tokidoki - please spread the love and drop a comment here!

Thanks to all who participated, the contest is now closed! Time for us to deliberate on who will be the lucky winner of a tokidoki Stationery Set! The entries are really good this time round and I’m sure everyone enjoyed reading and thinking up of their special tokidoki costume! Stay tuned to Tokidokizens for the results!

In the meantime, apologies for the lack of updates at the moment, our little team is quite swamped with work (gotta pay the bills!) so please bear with us and keep spreading the tokidoki love!

We’ve spotted tokidoki collaborating with Koi - they create gorgeous scrubs for medical stuff - to create a unique range of designer scrubs! While you won’t spot the medical staff of Grey’s Anatomy wearing these, these tokidoki for Koi scrubs are seriously cute! I would wear them as PJs if I could!

It’s only been three months since the tokidoki Concept Space was launched in Brisbane, Australia and already they’re bringing loads and loads of tokidoki goodies that has not been available here in Asia! The tokidoki Concept Space now stock the full range of the tokidoki Bags as well as tokidoki + Hello Kitty items (no need to fly to Japan)! For tokidoki apparel, be sure to check out the tokidoki Jeans and flip flops when you’re at the store as well. I’m actually wishing I could catch the next flight out as I’m typing this!

Besides the bags, they also have the collectible items like the tokidoki Soccer Ball, tokidoki Be@rbrick and tokidoki Miao together with his other toys. If you’re looking for presents for a tokidoki fan (or simply for yourself), the Concept Space will be bringing in the tokidoki Geisha as well as Captain Coco of the Cocommandos!

Time to get your shopping lists done up for Christmas we reckcned! Thanks to our friends at the tokidoki Concept Space for updating us with all these yummy information as well.

P.S. We’ve been receiving really (and REALLY) creative entries for our tokidoki Halloween costume contest! If you’re interested in winning a tokidoki Stationery Set, pop by our contest page and let us know what tokidoki Halloween costume you would love to be in. We’ll be ending the contest in the next few days so keep those creative thoughts coming!

Weekends are a good time to go out shopping and over the past weekend we popped by Tangs (Orchard) here in Singapore to check out if they have any new tokidoki apparel in store. We weren’t to be disappointed because they do have the tokidoki Nautical series already (yes we’re really behind time here in Asia!).

I fell in love with this grey terry cloth halter featuring a really cute tokidoki pirate monkey! With a big tokidoki pirate star on the back too! Awwww…

This would be perfect for those outings at the beach where you lounge about in your bikini, do a bit of a swim with no need for a towel coz your tokidoki top is already made of it! The material is quite soft and not scratchy at all to wear.

Besides the material, the top is also embellished with a few tokidoki details. In front you have a tokidoki pirate monkey holding onto a yellow rope and making heart patterns along it. Along the back of the top, there’s a bigggg tokidoki word made out from the rope as well as a sparkling tokidoki pirate star stitched on as well (like a patch).

Can’t resist taking more photos of the tokidoki monkey!

Tempted? Well, if you want to get this gorgeous top, it will set you back SG$105! (*sobs*) Tangs Orchard also have 10-30% off a couple of past tokidoki apparel so you might want to check them out at the Playlab corner on Level 3.

tokidoki’s collaboration with Onitsuka Tiger continues in 2009! They recently did a preview in the US and the upcoming tokidoki + Onitsuka Tiger collection looks fad with a combination of sneakers and slip-ons for the gals. Here are some sneak peeks we managed to find whilst trawling through the Internet:

For the ladies slip-ons, they all have the cute ribbon detail on the back, rubbery sole with inlay printing as well as tokidoki graphics on the inside. But each design features a different theme - black/pink is more punk rocker whereas the pink one has a sweet floral theme.

As for the sneakers, this time round tokidoki has continued with the normal style sneaker (no hi-cut versions) in different colour combinations as well as material. I personally like the version that’s covered in greyish brown suede (with the white tokidoki + Onitsuka Tiger icon on the back!) followed very closely by the classic white with blue and red stripes version. From the design, it seems like tokidoki was very influenced by the recent Olympics - the side featured a tokidoki Tiger holding a torch and running.

After ogling at these photos, we can’t wait for the tokidoki + Onitsuka shoes to be released here in Asia next year!
