For more than a decade, JoeLanta has been an annual event bringing toy collectors and pop culture enthusiasts from across the country together in Atlanta to celebrate the joys of toys and friendship! Not only will you find vendors selling a variety of vintage and modern toys such as GI Joe, Barbie, Mego, Transformers, Star Wars, Super Powers, Masters of the Universe, a wide variety of 1:6 scale figures and accessories plus magazines, comic books & lunch boxes; but you’ll also have an opportunity to meet celebrities, see costumers and check out a variety of toy dioramas!
For those who want to get the full experience you may sign up for the Commanders Package to get involved in field tours and other events starting as early as Wednesday (check the Schedule of Eventsto see what is available). With theCommanders Package you’ll get early-bird access to the dealer room on both Saturday and Sunday, join the gang for the GI Joe parachute drop in the lobby, and participate in festivities including Team Toy Trivia, a festival of film shorts and a concert by the band Radio Cult
JoeLanta is different from most toy shows in several ways. First, JoeLanta is created and run by The Cody Lane Foundation; a non-profit organization whose goal is to create The Cody Lane Memorial Toy and Diorama Museum. All proceeds from JoeLanta go directly to The Cody Lane Foundation. Second, although JoeLanta assembles one of the largest numbers of toy vendors in the United States, it is much more than just a toy show. There are costumers, dioramas, events, and more. Third, JoeLanta is a welcoming group of friends who love toys and pop culture. They are excited about talking to friends, both new and old, about their interests and they truly love to share in their joys of toys!
Stop on by and see what all the fun is about! We’ll see you there!

I will be there again this year with my fiancee, we will be having a table for her items, Andrea's 80s. So if you want to stop by feel free to say hi. We were in the smaller dealer room last year and probably will be in the same location this year. We will have a little of both girls & boys vintage collectibles. Some we will be bringing are: Monster High, My Little Pony (both vintage & new), G.I. Joe, He-Man, TMNT, and other various vintage items. A friend of ours, Kitastrophe Kollectibles, will be there too. She makes custom pillows out of vintage sheets. She does ones for Turtles, Transformers, Star Wars, etc. She also has tons of vintage toys, of all types, as well.
