The Collective | Distribution Day

12.30.2018 – Whenever you visit your usual toy store chances are there is new stuff to check it out. But in some cases these retail stores might not have the ones you’ve been seeing in community forums. The retail market when it comes to these toys is either they get sold out immediately or there’s just one distributor who controls them. The common business in releasing the toys back in the day is not what they are now. Rarely, you’ll see a complete wave or set being displayed immediately without fanfare or without the need for a limited group of people to know that they have arrived, but that’s unlike in the Philippines with this so called “Distribution Day.”

Unexpected Non-Toy Con Appreciations!

06.19.2011 - Tired. Exhausted. Drained... But had a great time with close friends and fellow geeks at Toy-Con 2011, which has been bigger this year. But not what I expected and feeling underwhelmed about how how it was presented though this day was a blessing in disguise. A fellow balikbayan who has been mostly going home during Christmas is having the time of his life back home from Australia. He finally has his second experience going to Toy-Con after 10 years!
