Kaiju Go co-founder Chaz joins Toys on Tap to break down how two friends turned a love of kaiju films and toys into one of the most talked-about small toy events around.And the philosophy is simple: throw a great party and take care of the artists.We talk about:• Growing up obsessed with dinosaurs and monsters • Starting Kaiju Go in 2023 • Combining designer toys with classic kaiju films • Why artists table for FREE • Keeping the event intentionally small • Curating sofubi, resin, and kaiju artists • Fans lining up hours before doors open • Volunteers keeping everyone hydrated in the Texas heat • Designing Kaiju Go’s killer merch • What could change next yearKaiju Go isn’t chasing massive growth. It’s chasing longevity, community, and one ridiculously good day every year.On Instagram: @Kaiju_goThanks to Our SupportersRate & Review the Show!
