Chicago Toy Show

Last minute addition to our schedule.

We just signed up for the Chicago Toy Show. Out in Kane County. St. Charles.

I have an address here somewhere.
*Pretending to shuffle papers around …
Ah, yes. Here it is.

Kane County Fairgrounds
525 S. Randall Road
St.Charles, IL 60174

“The fourth Sunday of each April, July and October are always home to our event held at the Kane County Fairgrounds. 2022 marks our 49th year of hosting the largest specialty show consisting of only antique toy and doll collectibles. We have 7 buildings and minimally 1 pavilion full of exhibitors from around the world – scroll down to see floor plans of our facilities filled with the exhibitor booths.

Admission $10 per Adult & Kids 12 & Under Free!

Want an early shot at the show? We’ve got you covered! For the Main Event, we offer an Early Buyer’s / Floor Rights Pass for $50 per person which starts on Saturday at 9am when our exhibitors begin set up day. The weekend pass allows for entry on both days plus parking on the grounds. You can preregister for Floor Rights on our site, or simply drive up to the entry gate anytime Saturday to meet with our attendants.”

There you have it. We’ll be there all weekend.

We’ll have our usual items on tap, along with plenty of toys that we find. What will we have? Well, you’ll just have to come by and say Hi!

Just Another Update

It’s been a while since we’ve done a little update about what’s going on.

As you can see we’re starting to add more TCGs to the site. Mostly Pokemon, because that is what everyone likes. And, I get to add to my Mimikyu collection. We’re also going to start selling more singles on the site. As you can see, we already added the Pokemon Go Expansion that has just been released.

Opus I, should be up next because we’ve been meaning to do that for quite some time now. Along with the Promo cards and the Deck Exclusive cards. Our main focus will still be FFTCG.

After that Magic singles, MetaZoo and Flesh and Blood. This is a one man team on the website side, so please be patient. As always if you are looking for particular singles that are not listed you can always e-mail us, and we’ll be happy to look for you.

We’re dong more shows now as well. Some are better than others, but we’re still going out there. Trying to get at least one every weekend. Our Schedule is filling up fast. As soon as things are confirmed you know that we’ll make a post about it. Then we’ll send you an e-mail the week of to remind you. All you need to do is sign up to the mailing list. And you can do that right here on the page.

Our next show is July 10th, 2022. We’re doing a Win-A-Box tournament @Pescadon once again. We have prizes for the top 8. And even if you don’t make it to the top 8 you’ll still walk away with 2 Booster Packs.

It’s time for me to get back to work. I’ll keep you all updated.

It’s all Gone

Maybe it’s time for a new Computer.

I was working on the Water reviews for a couple of days now, and apparently I didn’t save anything. Does anyone know if there’s a way to recover lost progress? Didn’t think so.

It almost reminds me of the joke with Jesus and the Devil. I should start saving more.

Now, let’s see.

We have the Army of One Tournament this Sunday @ Pescadon. We’re expecting lots of people. You read about the Prizes, soon you shall see them. I’ll take some pictures and post them up on Social Media later on today.

You should come out. Game Knight Chicago holds Pop-up Markets. There should be plenty of Vendors there, including us. We’ll have your FFTCG, your Pokemon, some MetaZoo, and other TCGs as well. Boxes, Packs, Decks, Singles, Sleeves, Toploaders and most of your TCG needs.

You’re right, Astral Radiance did come out last Friday. You might be wondering why they aren’t up on the site. It’s quite simple. We were already Sold Out, by Pre-Orders and what we needed to have on hand on June, 5th.

And the FFTCG Anniversary Collection has been delayed to June, 10th. I would reserve a copy. Just in Case. It always seems like I’ll either get more than I need or not enough.

Time to restart the Water Review.
