As we rolled out, I kept recording audio. My dad stopped in the doorway to zoom in on each of our faces as we passed by.
The Dealer’s Room is the beginning and the end, Valhalla via the Maxwell Street of old Chicago. Inside this high-ceilinged ballroom are dozens of vendors, hundreds of people, and thousands upon thousands of items of kaiju paraphernalia for G-Fans to buy, barter, and beg for in multiple languages.
