They usually have them listed on the Toy news ms Wizard websites.
About the signature...To be fair, Oakland has only won 4 World Series, the other 5 were won in Philadelphia. |

Well lets see.
You've got: SDCC - San Diego Comic Con (almost a week long now - mostly summer) Wizard World (Various locations - philly, texas, chicago) - 2-3 day shows - various times C2E2 - Chicago Comic Entertainment Expo - 3 day show next one is in the spring Toy Fair - (Industry insiders only) - always in new york - 4 days long - winter/feburary NYCC - New York Comic Con - 3 days - typically fall NJCC - New Jersery Comic Con -?? MAFE - Michigan Action Figure Expo - figureexpo.com - a new yearly event in battle creek/kalamazoo - 1 day event right now.. will expand after this show Star Wars Weekends - Always held in Disney MGM Parks every weekend of May - fri, sat, sun 4-6 weeks straight SWC - Star Wars Celebrations - bounces between west coast/east coast - they are on Celebration VI now.. 2-3 day show varies Gi Joe collector club almost always held in texas except this past year that was held in Rhode Island -- 1-2 days I think There is a Yearly show in Columbus Ohio that we did last year.. I cant remember the name --- I think it was like Columbus action figure show or something like that.. Columbus Collectibles maybe.. International you have 80s action figure expo, canadian joe con, TFCon, and the guy that runs 80s and TF con runs one in april -- all of these shows are almost exclusive to Toronto Canada -- the international shows vary.. some are 2 days -- some are 1 TF con is 2 or 3 now.. Those are the biggest that I can think off right now.. and then every state has thier little ones.. -- you have Motor City comic con in detroit (2 days), typically in the spring.. Fan expo just started up in detroit.. probably at least 15-20 that I have contacted in michigan alone.. not including surrounding areas.. Your best bet.. google comic con and your state and you will find tons of smaller shows.. as for the big ones Im pretty sure I hit them all Last edited by shdwknt; 12-12-2010 at 04:59 PM.. |

G.I.joe collectors club is a 4 day convention that had rotated its location throughout the US since its inception. In 2011 it will be at Disneyworld. Toyfair is usually for industry people , however last year Hasbro invited representatives from every toy and collector site onthe web to viwe their products exclusively.
