CANONICAL CHRONOLOGY

Five witnesses

  1. February 2002

    An early documented collector-network trace

    A Godzilla music reference credits Linda at Chibi-Goji Toys with alerting the writer to the Godzilla Sound Collection through her Japan connections. This is a useful early witness to the shop's role as a specialty information and sourcing node, not merely a catalog.

    G-FEST hospitality becomes part of the remembered shop experience

    A contemporary G-FEST account identifies 'Gojigirl Linda Conrad' and remembers her passing inflatable paper beach balls to shoppers before the dealer room opened. The same source later describes the Chibi Goji Toys spotlight in G-FAN 69.

    The Flickr archive preserves thousands of traded toys

    The surviving first-party 'Chibi Goji Toys' Flickr album by GojiGirl describes toys traded over a ten-year span and currently exposes thousands of photographs. This will be one of the principal sources for reconstructing product, display and visual history.

    The surviving storefront retains the Gojigirl identity

    Indexed ChibiGojiToys pages describe Linda as Gojigirl and present Godzilla, Ultraman, Gamera, neo-kaiju and difficult-to-find independent art/pop-culture toys. These pages will anchor the most recent pre-relaunch information architecture.
