    ** Do Not Confuse us with the JMV Show Please**

    The 9th Gulf Coast Toys, Comics & Collectibles Show is Coming!

    ~~~**** Saturday, December 10th, 2011 ****~~~


    Ok guys and gals, looks like we will have another sell out on our hands! We are at 28 vendors, which translates to 35+ tables of Toys, Comics and Colelctibles! I will still try to figure out a way to get more tables but as it stands we are almost at capacity (38 tables)! Hope to see everyone there!


    As Of Today we are SOLD OUT of Vendors Booths!


    ** Also, if you plan on coming to the show as an Early Bird, we will be doing a Special Door Prize Drawing at 11am when we open up the show! Last show we had vendors donate lots of different prizes! If you know anyone else coming out please let them know. Again this drawing will only be for the Early Birds.**

    We have a lot of vendors bringing a large variety of items like vintage action figures, GI Joes, Marvel figures, Power Rangers, Star Wars, Transformers, Hot Wheels, Alien vs. Predator and also items like Godzilla, Barbies and Stuffed Animals for the little ones!

    Check us out at: Home

    So far, so good. I got a couple of the booths reserved from people who found the flyers. Most of the spots are reserved so now it's more of the waiting game and spreading the word around town. We decided to wait another week or 2 before putting it in the papers because we want it to be fresh in people's minds. If we do an ad over a month in advance I fear it will be forgotten about. It has really covered a wide variety, so it should be pretty cool. I'll keep up with the reminders too!

    Cool can't wait to meet you all there! I just got off the phone about 30 minutes ago and we have a group of guys coming out from a costuming club that dress up like Star Wars characters and walk around and take pictures with everyone. The gentleman I spoke to said they were licensed costumes from Lucas Films and they usually do other charity events and currently perform at Space Center Houston (the Lucas Films attraction is there this Summer). Sounded pretty cool and we are excited about that now too! Just a couple weeks away...
