I attended the ToyMan Show today and saw so many awesome friends while browsing a lot of cool wares. ToyMan always has an impressive volume of stuff, with the sheer amount of neat items to look at being mind-boggling. Comics, Lego, diecast cars, DVDS, Laserdisc, Funko Pops, vintage toys, posters, magazines, and more were on offer, as always! I began the show chatting with my friend Jack Thomas of Fortress Comics when I spotted his booth near the show's entrance. I proceeded to say hello to my chum Tim Metzger, who had a bunch of awesome comics and DVD boxsets for sale. The superb John Chaffee of Bigfoot Comics was selling a variety of neat items, including coins as well.
Spike Forester of Lost in Space Toys and Collectibles had an amazing mix of toys, and I enjoyed catching up with Brian Lan too--we talked about the latest, "Superman," movie and my enjoyment of it. Bruce Reynolds had a lot of great comics, and Tom Milister was selling a cool mix of stuff! From one of the vendors, I picked up this snazzy issue of, "Tomb of Dracula," I didn't own but wanted:
In the upstairs area, I saw some of my author friends! Jessica Mathews let me know she had a new book on the way that should be available at the next show and Lindsay Hornsby showed off some cool new stickers! I also saw Leigh Savage for the first time in a long while; she was showing off some of her new books! Before I had to head out, I saw Tatertot Comics and Collectibles too and chatted with a guest of the show, Ming Chen (known for, "Comic Book Men," and other projects). He was very affable and spent a lot of time walking around the show, saying hello to everyone. It was another fantastic ToyMan Show, and I can't wait for the next one on September 28th!
