Last weekend all toy collectors anime lovers (otaku),and anybody who just loves collecting stuffs gathered at the Megatrade Hall of SM Megamall in Ortigas Philippines for the 7th annual Philippine Toys, Hobbies and Collectibles Convention or more popularly known as the ToyCon 2008.
There were just so much people gathered at the event. There were so many activities lined up for the entire weekend, enough to keep you from getting bored.
As usual there were hundreds of booths selling collectible items like die cast toys to action figures at a much lower price. There were old toys in mint condition being sold to avid toy collectors. There were comics too! For those who love to follow the lives of their superheroes in print, there are several titles of comics up for grabs.
When I went there last Saturday, a Cosplay competition is being held. Cosplay is short for costume play. Cosplay is some sort of an activity where a person gets to dress just like his/her favorite anime character. Most of the time, the cosplay contest is the much-awaited at the ToyCon in Megamall. There were just so many entries last Saturday and the crowd obviously love their getup.
I didn’t stay long at the Toy Con 2008 in Megamall as I have another prior commitment that evening. Kudos to Azrael Coladilla for the successful staging of the 2008 ToyCon Manila event!
