NYCC 2008: Dynomight NYC
The NYCC exclusive Bumrush vinyl figure was being displayed (as well as sold) at the Dynomight NYC booth. We loved the original colorway, but the exclusive is just as cool. And it might even be 20% scarier. But that’s just…
NYCC 2008: ESC-Toy
Per square foot, the ESC-Toy booth had the most to offer collectors at NY Comic Con. It could partly be due to the small booth, but more importantly…it had to do with the number of products they had on-hand. Erick…

The trash can were out in full force at the Uglydoll booth. But it’s what was in those garbage cans (not garbage!) that brought people to this booth. Several of the new Uglys were on display, including a limited number…
NYCC 2008: BCBCB Toys
