17 Most Exciting Booths From ToyConPh2016
5. The Artists Booth
Filipinos are really talented in almost every field and graphic designing in not an exemption. These talented men showed of their impressive drawing skills at the event. You will be impressed on how seamless their works are and I still find it disappointing that the comic industry in our country were not receiving any support from our government! They should bring the comic industry back on the mainstream and let these men show off their skills not just in our country but also to the other part of the world. It seems like they are also promoting their very own comics too! All their finished art are being sold in such appealing price which can be availed for as low as Php50.
6. iFlix Photo Booth
iFlix has one of the largest booths from the events and they were offering a very engaging gimmick! It’s a photobooth which allows event goers to have a picture with any of their iFlix cosplayers. A photographer will take a picture of you (no need for selfie) and you can grab the hardcopy afterwards! They offer different themes inspired from different movies and tv shows (probably offered by iFlix) including Kill Bill, Resident Evil and Arrows. Each them has their own cosplayer to accompany you in the photoHere’s my picture with that gorgeous lady wearing Alice’ costume from Resident evil (bagay ba kame? LOL)
7. Stan Lee Excelsior Exhibition
As I said, ToyCon is now being recognized by international media and what they offer this year is extremely special. One of the most interesting highlights of the event is the Stan Lee Excelsior exhibition. Nothing can be more appropriate to be featured in the Toy convention other than the man who is behind our favorite comic characters like Spiderman, X-Men, Avengers, Fantastic Four, Dead Pool and more!
The term “excelsior” is a catchphrase that is often used by Stan Lee at the end of his every column and since then, it has become his trademark motto. Stan Lee’s Excelsior Exhibition will showcase private collection of Marvel through the years including vintage comic covers, movie props, rare memorabilia, original artwork and high-end collectibles.The exhibit also features Marvel’s official merchandises and licensed toy collectibles. Each item has a signature either from Stan Lee or the actor who portrayed such role in the movie.

Secret Base is one of the main exhibitors in this year’s event. Secret Base is a Japanese Toy Store that makes rare,limited,designer Art Toy Collectibles. Aside from their gigantic spray paint and ice cream colorful statues, you will also notice this custom made van featuring special edition Funko pop toys. Hiddy Kinoshita himself got his own Funko Pop!
There are three versions available including a Metallic Hiddy in a Ronald McDonald color scheme outfit,a regular non metallic version with a smirky smile and a Joker color scheme outfit.

Oh. My. Gosh. Paradise.
It looks like an awesome con! I always love all the different booths :). And ofcourse buying stuff. Photo booths are always so much fun! It’s really nice they had one of Kill Bill :). Love that movie.
I posted my comment a bit to quick (sorry), So I’ll proceed: Love the Peanuts Booth as well. Never seen that one before. So nice.
