NYCC 2016- Thurs- Cool Toys & Awesome Cosplay!

From Oct. 6-9, 2016 New York Comic Con (NYCC) returned to the Jacob Javits Center in NYC. As always, I was there for all four days of madness. Let's begin with the first day, Thurs.

The following is some of the coolest toys and cosplay that I saw on that day:

 

Honestly, the only other mini-mates set I own is the Deadpool exclusive from NYCC a couple of years back. But, this Jessica Jones set is so awesome, that I will have to get it!

My Little Pony car

 

Awesome figures from Sideshow Collectibles, which are totally out of my budget.

We had to stop by NECA. I wish they sold more stuff at the con, but I'm guessing my wallet doesn't wish that. Anyways, they had some great toys on display.

 

 

 

 The Vasquez figure is just so fucking badass!!!

Speaking of stuff that I love but is too expensive for me, here is a statue from the best werewolf movie ever, Joe Dante's The Howling!

And now, on to the cosplayers, we go! Here are some of my favorites from Thurs:

At Exxxotica AC on April 2014, I got to conduct my second interview with the beautiful and amazing Tera Patrick. The last time I interviewed her, of course, was at New York Comic Con 2011.Two years have passed since then, and it was the perfect time for me to catch with what she has been up to like her cosplay, burlesque show, and tons more. As always, Tera gave me some wonderful answers questions and remains a true class act and real pleasure to see and talk to.

 

 

 

 

 Here I am with Tera, who is holding up her memoir Sinner Takes All: A Memoir of Love and Porn.. She had just read an excerpt from it, at the Expo, a couple of minutes before this interview. I finally picked up and am currently reading and highly enjoying it.

Toy Fair 2013- Spotlight on Funko Pop!

If there was one booth with one line of toys that had me hitting my biggest geekgasms, it's without a shadow of doubt the Pop! toys at Funko. I gave that line my award for toy line of the year in my first annual awards and with good reason. They very, very well repeat next time!!!!!

Perhaps the series I'm most excited for is the Master of the Universe line. Hordak (the character on the left), my all time fav MOTU character, is alone, a must own!!!

I actually already own Finn from the Adventure Time line. Interesting fact: I bought him at Hot Topic, and he came with a sword in hand. Unlike the weaponless version shown above. 

Anyway, all the Adventure Time is out right now! And, they are fucking awesome!

The two above are from the upcoming Iron Man 3 series.

 Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? This series is forthcoming.

 

For you Power Rangers fans out there, I present to you the above toys!

Also coming soon, are everyone's favorite moronic, metalhead duo, Beavis and Butt-head!

The Hello Kitty/ Sanrio line is already out available!

 

While, I am not a Disney fan, I do LOVE Wall-E! So, I do want the two robots that are coming soon from that movie.

The Walking Dead line continues, with more upcoming figures, including the above Glenn and Michonne (below). As to whether their will be bloody variants like there was with Daryl Dixon (which I already own) and Rick is up in the air.

The Game of Thrones line continues with more characters being made look cute. These guys should be out by April, in time for the new season which starts at the end of this month.

  

 Horror, gore, and comic book fans should rejoice with the above upcoming toys of Hannibal Lector, the Alien, Robocop, and Rorschach.
