Today was the first Sunday of May, and it was extra special thanks to there being a ToyMan show! Upon my arrival early in the morning, I was pleased to see the show was chock-full of goodness as usual. If my posts about the ToyMan show were to ever only get one thing across, the fact that the show is stuffed to the gills with awesome items needs to be driven home! Toys, comics, diecast cars, trading cards, records, magazines, Funko Pops, and everything in between are always at ToyMan, and one can spend the whole show taking in the mix of cool accoutrements.

I began my time at the show by saying hello to my great friends Spike of Lost in Space Toys and Collectibles, as well as Tim Metzger. I proceeded to have a chance to chat with Brian Lan and Shane Lodi about how they had been doing, and enjoyed seeing them. My delightful chum, Jack Thomas, of Fortress Comics, was present and had a huge assortment of intriguing comics as well. As I proceeded to walk around the show, I had the pleasure of seeing Cayden of Tri Fox Shoppe and bought a really cool Sonic-themed sticker from him! Check it out:
As I continued browsing around ToyMan, I interacted with my friend Jessica Mathews and was excited to hear about a new book she has coming out soon--I plan to buy a copy and will discuss it more in the future once it is released! The Tatertot crew was there with neat wares, and my friend Tom was selling cool shirts at the show, too, and I spotted celebrity guest Brad Kesten (known for a variety of voice-over work) meeting with fans and excitedly chatting with folks as well! It was a superb show, as always, and I eagerly look forward to the next Toyman on July 12th if I'm able to attend--that also happens to be Gibson's birthday, so we'll see how busy things are!
