Off to a toy show

[HardyGirl]

Hi guys,

I'm going to the big holiday San Jose Super Toy Show today. I'll let you know how I make out. Are any of you Bay Area peeps going?

Thanks for asking. I got:

2 American Girl dolls, one standard size and one mini, and a mini book
a TON of David Cassidy and Partridge Family fun books, including paper dolls
a Brady Bunch Dynamite mag and BB paper dolls
a cool custom made Leonard Nimoy as Spock throw pillow
Superman bedsheet set (sans the pillowcase)
A Lost In Space mint board game
Batman Colorforms (not vintage)
sealed View-Master Reels (Happy Days, Daniel Boone, Pete's Dragon, The Cat From Outer Space, Superman, The Great Muppet Caper, Man In Space)

Sounds like you had a successful day. Congrats on your finds.

Congratulations!

We get so few toy shows in South Florida and when they do arrive, it seems like there is always a conflict and I miss them.

Wasn't Dynamite a great magazine? I remember one that had Fantastic Four number 6 in it with the Sub Mariner as a derelict and the torch giving him a shave. Too cool!

I'm thrilled for you for those sealed view master reels. Make me want to start searching ebay.

They're not gonna be sealed long. I'm gonna open 'em up and play w/ them.

^^Oh, I expected that. I just still remember the smell of a brand new set of reels vividly, looking through the guide book. If you were lucky you also got a preview disk, too. So cool.

Coolness! Sweet haul, HardyGirl.

I love toy shows. Even if you don't buy anything, they're a blast just to walk around.

Cool haul, wish there were toyshows around here. THe only thing is/was was FX and that is probably gone.
