Illumination’s Villain-Con Minion Blast is now open at Universal Studios Japan. The ride’s gift shop is Evil Stuff, offering — as the name implies — evil stuff. Namely, new Villain-Con Minion Blast merchandise.
Evil Stuff


The gift shop is in a facade next to the ride’s entrance. A purple and orange sign points to the entrance.
Inside, merchandise is displayed on metallic industrial shelves. Light-up elements hang from the ceiling.
Guests exit Villain-Con Minion Blast through Evil Stuff. The cash wraps are at the back of the room.
There are Villain-Con banners and graphics. A leaderboard hangs where guests exiting the ride can see.


Atop some of the displays are statues of Minions dressed up as different villains from the franchise: Jean-Clawed, Balthazar Bratt, and Stronghold.
