Pictures from the Toronto Toy Show

[palitoy]

I took my kids to the toy show this morning, where I spent entirely too much money. My son brough along his camera and took a ton of pictures, so I thought I'd share them.

Mind you, this is what a six year old finds interesting, some vintage does manage to sneak in there.

Nice pix...looked like a very cool show.
Man, I really miss these things. The evil eBay has ruined them here where I live.

AAARRGGGG! I new I was missing something this past week. I was doing a placement in a Federal Penitenitary, and somehow don't think I coulda got the day off for a toy show.
Any idea when the next one rolls around?

April is the next big Toy show although I have info, there is also the big action figure con that month.

seems like there's quite a bit of shows in your area? or do you make an extra effort to travel to the ones that are a bit farther out? i wish there were more in my area. there's only 3 for the year.

Well, it looks bigger than it is really, they're mostly concentrated in the fall and spring. There are usually 3 in the fall around here and then 2 in April. In between you get some comic shows but not much in the toy department.

While I've been known to go to Buffalo for the odd show, I have like a "One hour drive" limit to any show. If I extended that a little bit, I could probably double the amount of shows I go to but they're more regional and a lot of times not worth the commute.
