December 12, its the first day of the Christmas Toycon for this yr, 2014. this will be more
of a photoblog page. There is a lot of merchandise on sale at megatrade halls 1 and 2, From
customized t-shirts to a photoshop tablet drawing session, name it, the christmas toycon
has got it. FUNKO POP distributed by Bigboys is also there, these Conventions is a
good venue for online sellers to get a chance to do meet ups with their clients, this time, the
halls of megatrade will be a venue for toy club and hobbyist christmas party.
and dont forget to drop by RETRO TOYS for that childhood dream toy you
would always ask your parents to buy but cannot afford. its time to buy it
yourself.
Today, on day 2, you will see a lot of people holding their SLR cameras and dashing
towards their favorite chick characters to ask for pictures with them. expect a lot of
picture from me here.
COSPLAY - 'Costume' becomes kosu (コス), and 'play' becomes pure (プレ).
by the way, cosplay = costume play, is a performance art in which participants called
cosplayers wear costumes and fashion accessories to represent a specific character or
idea that is usually identified with a unique name. A subset of cosplay culture is centered
on sex appeal, with cosplayers specifically choosing characters known for their
attractiveness or revealing costumes.
-Dec 13-
today is cosplay parade day, this is something I look forward to because it’s always a
surprise to see your favorite anime chick walking the halls for photo ops. if carshows are
for babes, then toycon is for cosplayer chicks. You’ll never know who you’ll catch today
because there are just so many characters to see, and observe and capture digitally.
And in every toy convention like these, theres a lot of chance meeting friends who have
the same interests as you. toycon venues are places where you can find fellow geeks
and nerds who love the same things as you. see you there friends!
TOYCON DAY 2.
TOYCON TOUR PART 1
TOYCON TOUR PART 2
On day 2, I decided to get a new staff,
 |
| Cosplay costumes vary greatly and can range from simple themed clothing to highly detailed costumes like this one. the intention is to replicate a specific character, the traits, moves, comes with the cosplayer |
 |
| when in costume, some cosplayers often seek to adopt the affect, mannerisms, and body language of the characters they portray. when not in costume, they are as ordinary as you and me. you would be surprised when you have a look at the before and after shots! |
DAY 3 LAST DAY
 |
| Cosplayers pose for photographers in designated areas removed from the exhibit hall |
 |
| this is not a cosplayer |
 |
| The appearance of cosplayers at public events makes them a popular draw for photographers. As this became apparent in the late 1980s, a new variant of cosplay developed in which cosplayers attended events mainly for the purpose of modeling their characters for still photography rather than engaging in continuous role play. |
and the egress after 945pm,
this concludes the christmas toycon, the next toy exhibit will be on March 21-22, 2015 also
in megatrade and MOA in June 2015, see you next yr. dont forget to drop by
RETRO TOYS.
this is your LOVERBOY Dennis Signing out. Merry Christmas.
