Missed the boat...

So, I meant to give some 'web attention' to Victoria's Ultimate Toy and Hobby Show where I had a table last Sunday at the Pearkes Arena (Victoria BC, of course), selling comics toys and what have you. Anyway, turns out that I was so busy getting stuff together for the show that I didn't get the time to blog about it and show off some of the stuff that I had for sale (like I did for my last two excursions as Rebel Alliance Canada). Looking back at those previous posts, I must admit that they were pretty cheesy anyway, so you sure didn't miss anything.

The day went pretty well, all considered, and my thanks again to Cherry Bomb Toys in Victoria BC for putting this awesome event together and giving me the chance to be part of it. There were vendors selling all sorts of great toys, games, comics, books and collectibles there, and they had a cool charity carnival going on as well. Attendence seemed pretty good to me, just about as good as at the last trade show I sold stuff at in Winnipeg.

Now, if only I wasn`t a such dumbass for staying out late drinking at Irish Times Pub the night before, thereby sleeping in and missing the first two hours of the show... but that`s another story.  I dropped the ball again for not taking a single photograph when I was there. If only I could post photos of all the cool toys and stuff that I saw! There was everything from Sith to Smurfs and Jedi to G.I. for sale at at least one booth or another. I think that I myself brought a pretty good load of stuff to the show (over 1000 comics, 100+ loose toys, 50+ books and about a dozen carded figures) - but man-o-man - some of the other vendors there truly put me to shame... Let's not forget that, at least at this point in time, Rebel Alliance Canada is still an Alliance of One.


So, since I don't have any photos of said Toy Show, and I do so like to post photos on my blog, here are some random shots of other things. You may have seen them (or similar ones) here and there before, but hey, I gotta pick up the slack somehow. I can't blog once a month and then have nothing for y'all to look at. I'd be letting you down, and I'd be failing myself as a somewhat professional photomatographer.

So there you go...
