My Toy Wish/Want List Part 2

Okay here's Part 2 of "My Toy Wish/Want List". This list isn't just for toys I'd like to get for Christmas but an actual checklist of things that I'd like to add to my collection. Hopefully, one day, I'd be able to get everything. So let's begin!

My Toy Wish/ Want List 1

I had my birthday last week, and Christmas is just around the corner so I decided to put together a wishlist of toys I want. Not necessarily to be given to me as gifts,- I'd be more than happy to buy these for myself if I have a lot of cash- but if someone does gift me, I would accept it whole-heartedly. XD

Here are some of the toys that I want/ wish for. Most of these I wouldn't mind finding or gettign loose, but it'd be better if they were MOC or MOB.


Pinky St.


I got into Pinky st. back in 2007, I think. My friend Nina started collecting them and taking pictures of them. I started my collection with a Pinky that I bought from her, Arcruied Tsukihime from the game Melty Blood. It was soon followed with a Agito/ Akito from the manga and anime, Airgear. This was  from my brother who I asked to buy it for me from an online bookstore because it was on sale. I have gotten other pinkies since then, and the ones below are the ones that I still do not have, but want so badly.

Scenes From The Hobby Expo at The Riverbanks Center

Here are some photos from the Hobby Expo at the Riverbanks Center in Marikina. Kat, Drew and I went before going to Cubao and Makati. I didn't buy toys, just comics from Comic Odyssey's booth. I also won a Resident Evil baseball cap from the "Bring me" game.

And Yet Another Toy Sale

It's just one after the other! In between this one and the last one I posted is the Komikon.  With Decemeber fast approaching, I'm sure it's about to get worse for our hearts wallets. GRAAAAAHHHHH!!!

Ayala Mall's October Toy Fest

Since I missed out on Collecticon and the toy sale, I might check this out. A friend says there's going to be a free die cast car for the 1st 200 to register for the 2 days according to his source.There will also be Free 2010 SDCC Giveaways for every purchase while supply lasts. The October Toy Fest will be on Oct. 16 & 17 at the Glorieta 5 Atrium, from 10AM-9PM. Admission is free!

Collecticon 2010

The heavens are conspiring to make me miserable! On the heels of the 2010 Hasbro Toy Fair is one of the cons I wanted to go to-- Collecticon. It will be on this coming weekend, October 2-3 at Robinson's Midtown Mall. The con will be open from 10AM-9PM and admission is FREE.

Hasbro Toy Fair 2010 at Toy Kingdom

Wish I had money to spare. Tomorrow's the first day of the Hasbro Toy Fair at the Block in SM City North Edsa. I want to go and look for some Marvel Legends figures. Guess I'll pass for now and wait for that bigger sale. Thanks for the heads up, Slangards!

Comic Odyssey's August Sale

Enjoy discounts on toys for the entire month of August at the Comic Odyssey All-Out Sale! Hmmm I wonder how much they'd slash off an Amecomi.....

The Crazy Cat Lady

Yes, I ended up buying it! As if there was any doubt that I wouldn't. I saw this Crazy Cat Lady action figure about two weeks back at one of the discount toy stores  I frequent. I decided to pass and wait until after Toycon  to decide on buying it, since I've already purchased vinyl toys.

A day after Toycon, I went back to the store to see if it was still there,  and bought it. Originally, this came in a blister pack with an illustrated card, but this one was sold without the card.  Here's what it looks like in it's original packaging.

The figure is about 5-1/4 inches tall and comes with six cats. The figure is dressed in stereotypical "crazy cat lady" garb-- a ratty old robe, wild hair , soft padded slippers and a checkered pajama bottoms. It has a bit of articulation so you can bend it's knees, waist and arms. Manufactured by Accoutrements , this action figure retails for about $10.00 online. The store was selling it for Php 70.00, but since haggling is allowed at the store, I asked for a better price and got it for only Php 50.00! Talk about a steal!

I'll post photos of the figure out of it's pack soon.

How To Survive a Con

Since the 9th Philippine Toycon is just days away,  I decided to put together a "Con Survival Guide" of sorts that is based on my personal experience. I've gone to few cons since I've gotten into collecting, and these have gotten me through every single one.

I'm Back With New Toy Finds

It's been a while since I last posted here. I've been busy with other things and frankly, I didn't know what direction to take with this blog. So here I am, months later, and still clueless as to how I'm going to make this work. I guess I'll just start by posting more.

Let me start with my newest finds. I found these vinyl toys at 2 of my favorite toy haunts. These are approximately 3 inches high. There were many to choose from, but I initially got just these two. There are four more that I've been thinking of getting, but I'm putting it off for a bit until after Toycon.

These came loose so I don't know what line these came from. The sales ladies at both stores also do not know what line or label these came from. An internet search came up inconclusive. I'm sure someone out there knows what these toys are. 

Care to ID these for me?
