    As someone who has happily paid for indivual Diener erasers, that display is pretty cool.

        Ha, I saw that comin'

        It never really dawned on me they were erasers or collectible in any way, I just had to have it!

          Looks like fun, and those monster erasers sure bring back the memories.

          Glad to see that Toronto still has shows that draw crowds.

          I haven't been to a toy show since early last year.
          Unfortunately, they've practically disappeared from the SoCal landscape.

            green with envy here. If only this was 1500 or so miles closer. I can't think of any good collectables shows in central TX lately. Hopefully they will be making a comeback sometime soon.

            Not only did you work what looks like a really cool show; you got to hang with Chris and Mr. H. - awesome.

            Thanks for sharing the pics.

              I later felt bad that I got so caught up in "talking shop" that I forgot to properly introduce my wife. I usually have a bit more manners than that. And on the way home I was half regretting not taking you up on the great deal for that spaceship.

              I didn't realize that the container of little monsters you bought was a store display of them. I thought it was it was something that was sold as a set. I think it's even cooler now.

                Neat pick up on the erasers. Also love these types of event reports and I conside rmyself an "event" person always waiting for the next one. Can't hit 'em all so I love to see others reports and perspectives. Only one toy show in the area by me and it's less than stellar. I go mostly because there's a guy I pick u-80's wrestling mags from for a $1 each.

                      looks like a great show!!! I loved those little monsters as a kid. My dentist used to give them out after he tortured your teeth for awhile.

                        Looked like a huge turn-out. Nice to see the Big Track in the photos.

                          Wow, really sorry I missed this show. Would have been nice to meet you IRL. Nice pick up on the deiner erasers too. Hopefully you had such a great time you'll do it again next year.

                            Yeah, it would have been cool to meet you Andy. It looks like Mark and I will be doing the Action Figure Expo in April sometime, I'll post details when I get 'em.
