The recap of the G.I. Joe toy show. (One week late)

It's been a busy couple of months and I plan on posting more frequently.  Now for some recent past events......  

One week late, here are some pictures from the G.I. joe toy show in Burbank, ca on December 8th.   We arrived bright and early as other vendors were setting up.   The recommended everyone arrive around 6:30 am to set up as the show opened at 9am sharp and ended at 2pm.  In the past, we have gone as attendees, but this time around, we were vendors.   Austin wanted to get some buzz going on about his Lego joe customs and just get to know some local joe fans.

Below is a pic of some of the items we were selling in addition to the customs.  

 

I took some pictures of here floor.   I like the 12 inch figures from the 60's (as well as reissues).  Some of the vendors had some Barbies and Star Wars collectibles for sale as well.


It seems like the real American hero era reigns supreme to many collectors.  


Austin strategically set up his models and creations.  We forgot to bring the Ecto-1, unfortunately.


 
 
 
 

I found a vendor that was selling kreon and we bought a couple that we did not have.  Yay!  

 

Austin was in selling mode!  Many people were excited about the customs.

 

It was a lot of work, but we did better than expected at the show.   We broke down everything and packed up around 2pm when the show ended and called it a day.   Looks like we will be doing it again in April.
