June 28/2019 ToyconPH Edition of #TOYNEWS #TodayonTOYSREVIL
The 2019 Edition of TOYCON PH: The Philippine Toys, Hobbies and Collectibles Convention opens today Friday June 28th, and exhibits thru the weekend, ending on June 30th, 2019.
Featured up top is the TV coverage of the pre-show event (First aired 27 June 2019 on ABS-CBN Channel 2), undeterred by not knowing the spoken language Tagalog, but for the joy-of-toys seen!
Meanwhile, here is a look at some MORE designer toys to be had, as I Facebook and Tweet news as they are revealed thru the weekend! ONWARD!
@tangent.toy will be debuting a brand new sculpt at ToyconPH, joining his "Hogkey" - Say hello to "SUNNY" The Bear! Will attempt to update further info when I have them :)
Available from Arman Kendrick are TAKO SHOGUNS and TAKO JIMBO, with the charts featured here for your purchasing considerations! Stay updated via his Insta @armankendrick for post-event availability.
"The Tako Shoguns are 3 inch resin figures of Samurai Dumbo Octopuses. It is based on the sculpt of the Tako Jimbo Ver. 1.0 and comes with a full set of armor and a removable kabuto.
The Tako Jimbo V 2.0's are 1 inch resin figures. It is a complete resculpt of the ver 1.0 now coming with cuter eyes, folded tentacles and a simpler, cleaner kabuto. Some colorways are toycon exclusives and some are slated to be brought in for future waves." (@armankendrick)
