last night was the event briefing for the 2nd Toys and Collectibles Christmas Fair, and the room was filled by booth exhibitors, but not that too many since some of the booth exhibitors are at around less than 20 who attended the briefing. I was expecting that more than 40 people will be there but its kinda weird to see only less 20. I guess the old timers know the drill in the convention and Im glad that there are some new booth exhibitors who participated in this event.
They are mainly pure collectors who will be selling some of their collections, every toy shop owners begins at that scale as a collector and seller, but after getting new customers and demand of their items, the collector-seller will be evolved into a big toy shop. everyone starts there and I know how it feels heheeh.
Before the briefing ends, Vic Yap told Megatrade Hall to reveal the official date for the 7th Annual Philippine Toys, Hobbies and Collectibles Convention 2008 or shall we call it TOYCON Year 7 heheh in line with the Batman film coming next year. It will be on June 14-15, 2008 . a 2 day weekend event. We will be occupying Megatrade Hall 1 and 2.

Here's an audio recording of the announcement last night, you'll see my reaction after releasing the dates in our faces ahahahahaha. Also we are still confident that the event will still be contained in the 2 hall, but if ever ....yes..if ever that the 2 halls are super occupied. maybe we can go for a 3 halls on 2009. which I don't know what will be the plan for it and I dont want to think of the coming future.
its a semi-meeting for the ToyCon year 7 event and our plan is to reformat all contest of the event, because I really dont want other events copying our concept, thats why we will reformat all contains guidelines and format from the comics, toys, and cosplay contest.
we might have also lots of on the spot contest, and will announce that soon on the official blog site of the ToyCon year 7 www.toycon.blogspot.com
