Davao Toy Convention at Gaisano Mall

It's supposed to be my rest day yesterday. But with the sun way high up in the sky, flaunting its oh-so-high and mighty hot rays plus its ally the rotating brownout, a guy can't do anything but concede. So to get a little bit of R&R I decided to go to the mall.

Lo and behold! A million of people has flooded the premises, but for what reason? I didn't have the slightest idea. Perhaps they also wanted to escape the tandem of sun + brownout. My question was answered however when I reached the center area of the mall. There was a toy convention showcasing items from Davao toy collectors.


Although not really a toy enthusiast, I am a huge fan of anime, manga, and comics. I found myself trapped and entangled in the toy convention for a number of hours in awe of my favorite characters being tangible and some almost even lifelike.




Wolverine VS Sabertooth





Colossus VS Sentinel 
 




The Hulk VS Spiderman
 




VW Beetles and Vespa Scooters
 
 
And this piece is, for me, one of the best in the Davao Toy Convention 2010
 




Vito Corleone

Aside from the toys, there was also a cosplay... or at least a taste of what was coming this saturday. There was a couple of girls who played a character from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya and Death Note.




The full blast contest for the cosplay will be this coming saturday. Hopefully I will be there to witness this event.
