Super7 Godzilla Station Pop-Up at SDCC 2025 Recap

Super7 always has one of the most creative offsites / pop-ups during SDCC. This year they transformed their San Diego store location into the Godzilla Station. They put up a temporary facade featuring Godzilla attacking the train station and always dope artwork on the side of their store. Inside the pop-up featured exclusive Toho Godzilla merchandise. There were exclusive apparel and collectibles. They had a signing with Director Shinji Higuchi. There were lines every day they were opened for SDCC. By Saturday, the store looked pretty empty. One of the sought after items is the Godzilla Station coin which you could pick up at their booth inside the convention center or at their pop-up. See pics below of their pop-up. 

Super7's Toho Godzilla Station Takeover at SDCC

 

The Super7 store is ground zero for Godzilla’s (Minus One) assault on San Diego Comic Con. The store has been transformed into a recreation of the iconic “train biter” scene from the movie. Godzilla Station will feature a Godzilla train entry way, destroyed interior and exterior, actual movie props, Godzilla cosplayers, Kaiju Response Team Staff, and exclusive toys and apparel.
