    If it was anything like last years show...you didn't miss anything. Last years show I attended and if you were into 80's toys you were in hog heaven. I only came away with a Zica Tigerman and a Shogun Warriors Godzilla that needed work. I think the ONLY mego deal that was done in front of me was a carded Roscoe P Coltrane figure for $30. Which in my opinion was a steal. It's one of the reasons why I passed on the show this year.

    And because of all their tears,
    Their eyes can't hope to see
    The beauty that surrounds them
    Isn't it a pity".

      I was there selling Star Trek, DC Superheroes, NOTLD, zombie kits, and my usual wares.
      James Gallo was there, Stabillo was there, and other guys I recognized and chatted with,
      but I don't know if they post here or not.

      Hofstra (my alma mater for over 25 years now) was a nice location - easy to get to - plenty
      of parking, and no stairs or elevators (helpful when carrying boxes in and out) but the show
      has no guests, and is only one ballroom. If it expands next year, it may be worthwhile.

      I gave the organizer credit for putting on a show without celebrities to draw people in.
      It felt like the old Freeport Rec show but in a smaller space.

        Thanks for the info guys. Maybe next year. Didn't have much in reserve funds anyway since I bought that Alter Ego Bruce Wayne and Wayne Foundation last week on E bay lol
        Berto keep an eye out for the Marvel only Spiderman that is not the Electric Company box.

          If anyone that did attend this show actually remembers what they saw in the line of 80's toys for sale, I have some fairly specific questions on items/lines, that were available, for them. I was so much wanting to attend this but couldn't pull it off. My buying patterns have changed slightly with the new business so I'm looking for certain things and really wanna consider this show next time.
          It's not a doll it's an action figure.
