It's because I am American isn't it? You guys always treat me as the blacksheep of the family, a blacksheep with a redneck, that lives in a trailer, drinks beer, smokes dope, beats his wife, lives like trash, has 5 teeth, and is a dirty inbred hillbilly. I can't help my faults. I look past all your faults, can't you look past mine and send me the damn Gretztky? :confused:

:D

Actually, No!

I am American too!! Born in the great state of Hawaii!!!

Nah didn't win but it was fun and yeah I slept in, went to bed at 6:30 in the morning !!
Watched a little NFL today and now I'm at work !! Went and saw Ron today and surprise surprise he was watching Nascar !! but it was nice to see him again !!

Hello GTA,

Firstly, i'd like to thank each and everyone for passing by the Toronto Toy and Collectible show on Sunday, and a double thanks for those who picked up figures to add or complete their personal collections. We thank you for coming and look forward to continue filling your requests.

Glory, thanks again for dropping by and checking out that figure we had mentioned. If i ever get the one you're specifically looking for, i'll PM you right away, especially with NHL 9 and NFL 10 coming soon. :)

Regarding the Comment by Bronf, well, not sure what you're exactly referring to below, i don't think i even saw you pass by, however i noticed there were a handful of Mcfarlane Vendors and a BUNCH of car dealers, vintage toys, marvel, plush toys, g.i.joes, Transformers, Star wars, etc.

The toy show itself was a success for a bunch of vendors with specialty figures as well as Mcfarlane guys, i spoke with the 2 other guys and they did average, considering we had the Sports card expo next door.

Unfortunetely, I didn't get a chance to browse, or even shop at the Sports Card Expo next door. From some of the posts I've read on this thread i noticed that some of the HTF figures were overpriced. I agree with all of you regarding some of those outrageous prices, $500 for a Bourque, are you kidding me? (steal a line from the Swirsk) :)
Though, as collectors, you guys can't expect to get the figures for free, right? I would think half or close to half of the Mcfarlane dealers at the Sports Card Expo are from the US or outside of Ontario. You need to factor their time, effort, various costs in acquiring those figures not only to break even but to turn a modest profit as well, Also, a 10*10 table cost $500. You can't just go in and expect to find a $200 figure for $50, when you know they have to cover a $500 table cost, $1000 for 2 (i may be off by a few bucks).
Even Ebay is out of whack sometimes, so you can't always use that as a barometer.

Thanks to all for coming out and see you guys soon. Regarding new Series of NHL 9, NBA 7, and NFL 10, let me know and i'll get you the fig's ASAP....

Just send me an email, vcfor3@yahoo.ca

Just send me an email, vcfor3@yahoo.caI was there at the toy show as I was walking around with Wil. What I meant about the show wasn't regarding Sportspicks or you. I"m talking about as a whole for the last 5 years, the toy shows have less and less things that I found interesting. There used to be a lot more other Spawn, Marvel, Transformers and other action figure stuff in the past years. I'm saying that both Skyway and Sunday's show are bad in an action figure collector standpoint, not in how much sales dealers are getting.

As for your comment about us asking for free figures, we're not asking for hand outs. Most of us here have been collecting long enough to understand that dealers need to pay for their overhead and table costs. We have no problem with that and that's why we like dealers like tradingterry cuz he's fair. I'm talking about dealers who don't even have fair prices. Asking for double ebay costs is not fair. Dealers buying figures from collectors at a low price but in turn don't give a decent deal back to those that gave him help is also not fair.

It's all in about the attitude of the dealer and how they conduct themselves in front of collectors. And we're saying as collectors that good fair dealers are few and far between here in Toronto.

Personally, I don't buy my stuff from dealers anyways so they can charge $1000 for a series 1 Ichiro if they want. Doesn't effect me.....dealers like that just get pointed and laughed at with their insane prices and they lose customers by burning their bridges. It's just how dealers try to justify their insane prices that irritate me. When someone is charging $500 for an Amonte and they try to justify it to my face, all they'll get from me is a smirk and mental note never to deal with that dealer ever.

Like I said....tradingterry, hawkeye and even Kranium Kenny was fair at the show and outside of the show. Not everything they had was a good price but for the most part it was fair or a good deal. At least it wasn't from the other dealers who don't have a clue.

I was there at the toy show as I was walking around with Wil. What I meant about the show wasn't regarding Sportspicks or you. I"m talking about as a whole for the last 5 years, the toy shows have less and less things that I found interesting. There used to be a lot more other Spawn, Marvel, Transformers and other action figure stuff in the past years. I'm saying that both Skyway and Sunday's show are bad in an action figure collector standpoint, not in how much sales dealers are getting.
Skyway and Sunday's show were my first ever Toy Shows and I have to admit that both were quite disappointing. Since I have never attended one in the past, I technically don't have anything to base it on.. but I do know that they both left me wondering why I wasted my time and money. I guess I just expected there to be alot more variety and harder to find stuff plus LOTS more Sports Picks.

As for your comment about us asking for free figures, we're not asking for hand outs. Most of us here have been collecting long enough to understand that dealers need to pay for their overhead and table costs. We have no problem with that and that's why we like dealers like tradingterry cuz he's fair. I'm talking about dealers who don't even have fair prices. Asking for double ebay costs is not fair. Dealers buying figures from collectors at a low price but in turn don't give a decent deal back to those that gave him help is also not fair.

It's all in about the attitude of the dealer and how they conduct themselves in front of collectors. And we're saying as collectors that good fair dealers are few and far between here in Toronto.
This is true.. as collectors, we understand that dealers have overhead costs etc but if the dealers have really whacked prices and questionable attitudes, all they are doing is burning their own bridges with us collectors. As a community (especially the GTA crew) we're a fairly close-knit family and word of mouth goes a long way. If a dealer is fair and treats fellow collectors how they themselves want to be treated, then there's a much better chance of a return customer that brings his/her friends along for a similar experience.

Personally, I don't buy my stuff from dealers anyways so they can charge $1000 for a series 1 Ichiro if they want. Doesn't effect me.....dealers like that just get pointed and laughed at with their insane prices and they lose customers by burning their bridges. It's just how dealers try to justify their insane prices that irritate me. When someone is charging $500 for an Amonte and they try to justify it to my face, all they'll get from me is a smirk and mental note never to deal with that dealer ever.
Some dealers might think .. meh, who cares, so I lost ONE customer. Plenty of fish in the sea. Well, in cases such as ours, the GTA crew is fairly tight and if one of us has a problem with a dealer.. chances are pretty good that the rest of us will feel the same way. That's ELEVEN potential customers gone. And we tell two friends..and they tell two friends..and they tell two friends and those friends tell two friends and eventually it'll turn into quite the festive orgy of writhing limbs, but I digress..

Like I said....tradingterry, hawkeye and even Kranium Kenny was fair at the show and outside of the show. Not everything they had was a good price but for the most part it was fair or a good deal. At least it wasn't from the other dealers who don't have a clue.
I really liked that Bob McFarlane guy we had dinner with too.. he was super friendly and funny, but he kept trying to sell me that damned Heritage Classic set for $300!!! And you only like Kranium Kenny cos his baby girl has the HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTS for you! Don't worry though, I slipped her your cell # and told her to call you sometime during the week when her dad gets NHL 9 :D

Ah...finally you post, Mr Chubbs. Welcome to the most deranged thread on spawn...not to mention the most fun. Holy crap!!!! We're on page 100 now!!!!



Hey guys,

I'd like to interrupt this thread for the lurk to make his official introduction. I go by the name of Chubbs and it was nice meeting some of the Toronto collectors this weekend (I'm the asian guy with the sideways hat with Mike aka reboundicon). Got some nice figs this weekend at the show and my room has just enough room for 6 more figures at the most to go on the wall. I think I have to hang them from the ceiling when NHL 9 comes out. I'll post pics if I ever figure out how. That's about it, you may now continue...

Peace.
