It's San Diego Comic Con weekend, which means that anything that we write might be completely lost in the shuffle, but we keep grinding, because that is what we do! A collector who attended the convention told us that he was STARSTRUCK after meeting a few of the 'celebrities' he met at the convention, while completely ignoring the fact that a movie star was next to him. ToyFarce investigated...

We sat down with Mark, a toy collector from California, who told us about his experience at SDCC: "I was there for Day 1, and it was so awesome!! So many reveals and cool stuff!! And I saw so many people that I love! In the morning, I was standing in line, and I think I saw Jay C taking pictures at a booth! Can you believe that? Then, I was right behind Shartimus Prime in a queue to pick up a figure. I think I also saw MCUCollector24, he walked right next to me! And I think I spotted Pixel Dan after that! I also saw the guys from Toymigos, the Enablers, Toy Anxiety, etc... Then there were all the guys from the companies at their respective booth! I saw Ryan at the Marvel Legends booth, Trevor and Blaine from NECA, Peter, Alex and Hector from Mondo, Juhn from Jada Toys, etc... they were all there! I was in the same room as all those people!"

"After the first day, when I went back to the hotel, I was in the elevator, and some dude came in the elevator as well. He saw my lanyard from the con, so he asked me if I was enjoying it. I told him about all the guys that I had just seen, and that it was so awesome to see them. He smiled and said he was happy for me. When we arrived at his floor, right before getting out, he asked me if I wanted an autograph, which I thought was weird... Apparently he was some famous person called Chris Hemsworth. Not sure I ever heard of him, he must have a toy channel on Youtube, I guess... He was very nice, though!"

More news at 11:00... "They say never meet your idols, but those guys are all so cool!"

So Hasbro Selfie series has nothing to do with this trend... I toytally agree on that some niche filmmakers not really worth it.

Used to shop at Toy Anxiety back when I lived in Arizona. I miss that place… Kind of surprised they got name dropped as I didn’t realize they were even known outside of like Phoenix.

 

Edit: after looking into it further, I am not sure I am talking about the say Toy Anxiety. There is a toy shop in Phoenix call Toy Anxiety, but it looks like the article may be referencing some youtubers. Not sure if the two are related or not.
