• Octoyberfest 2013 Exclusive Retro Guardian Figure

    This Sunday sees the Toronto Toy Fair from 10am-4pm at the Toscana Banquet & Conference Centre, Hilton Garden Inn where they have an EXCLUSIVE Mego Style Guardian figure for sale.
    Only 20 are being made so this makes it the rarest AF-style collectable yet!

    The figure costs $50 and can be ordered for show-attendees by e-mailing totoyfair@gmail.com while stocks last!

      Cool figure...too bad you have to be in attendance to purchase. Too far to travel and I would pay extra too.

      Oh it's in Vaughn? That's 45 mins from me. Also only 20? Yesh! I have a feeling they will be sold out pretty quickly. Also I assume that's 10AM not 10pm?

      My bad; edited.
      Cheers for the heads up KM.

      And if you're going and want one e-mail and pre-order; they had ones left yesterday.

      They said I may still get two, but I have to wait closer to the end.

      How big is Octoyberfest anyway? If it is of any decent size I would hope that those figures would be all pre-ordered and gone before the doors opened. If not then they really missed the right crowd.

      If it's $5 admission and in a hotel conference room my money it's going to be small. I only reserved my copy last night and there was no issues. So I'll talk to the guy and see if I can get extras to ship out to you guys.

      Yeah, given the size chances are that it's not an officially sanctioned Marvel Product and that it won't have any packaging so it's literally just a figure in a Canadian flag. I stumbled upon it by sheer accident.
      I may be wrong though.

      Wow that was a waste of money. If I didn't already pay for it on paypal i wouldn't have gotten it. Not good quality either

      Came with packaging but not Marvel approved as Phil said. Disappointed massively. Lesson learned

      I MUST see what this looks like now. Can you post a pic?

      Yeah I will. They still had lots there. But trust me you wouldn't want one. I did get a sick Alpha Flight print which I really like.

      It is so cool that it comes with its own stand! All action figures should do that.

      What Alpha Flight Facebook group? Is that affiliated with alphaflight.net? Is you a member?
