I spent a few hours at FanExpo in Toronto and I thought I'd share photos. There were some great vintage Star Wars items for sale, maybe a bit of a "convention tax" on some of them, but they were pretty high end pieces. I've included a couple photos of the area surrounding the convention center for those of you who are not familiar with Toronto.

Most of the dealers were familiar faces from local toy shows but they tend to bring out the big ticket items for an event like this. I decided to get a ticked for opening day so there would be all the crazy items and less people, but the downside is: there isn't as much crazy cosplay going on, so I have less photos of that than I did last year.

There was a Canadian 12B Chewbacca here, for sale at $2500CAD, that might be around market value as far as I know, I got one with a small bubble crack this year for $500 though. I really wanted that Canadian ROTJ R2 Sensor Scope, the card looked so vibrant and clean but it was $350, I've got ICCC coming up and I'd rather pay more for an ESB, to be honest.

There were a few interesting European cards as well. This was all from the same dealer, he's a good guy, I've got many Canadian Droids & Ewoks figures from him in the past, all quite reasonably priced and in great shape.

Here's a quick peak at the Hasbro display for those of you who are passively interested in modern, at least to the extent of looking at pictures of the new stuff. I mean, this 6" scale Mynock is pretty damn cool. Personally I did pick up the Vintage Collection 3-pack. If you could buy the Mynock by itself, I probably would have.

I hope you guys enjoyed that, I might have some fun follow-up stuff to ad as I've got some friends still there today who are hunting some exclusive stuff for me.

I had this micro machines set as a kid, had tons of fun with it.

Here's my one interesting pickup from the show, finally completed the trilogy with a $40 complete-in-box Super Return of the Jedi:
