Singapore Toy Games & Comic Convention 2009

Although this post is not of any form of bakes but it is a great TREAT for us =)


Being kidults we couldn't give the Singapore Toy Games & Comic Convention 2009 (STGCC 2009) a miss! We went for 2 days... So here we go...


We went on the 1st day that the event was open to public which was on 14 August 2009(Fri). Our main target was the Tokidoki booth, hoping to get some items and of course to get the signature of Tokidoki artist: Simone Legno!


Although it was a bit disappointing on the variety of items they have on sale, we were surprise to catch a glimpse of Simone Legno signing items for fans (it was not stated in the schedule in the event guide). Blur as we were, we found out the "terms and conditions" for getting the signature and came back another day...


Next we went to the Dooodolls booth behind and I couldn't resist getting myself their plushes. I bought the baby Pinkie Pirate (although it is not my star sign)...





and Cupido!



And of course not forgetting to get Dooodolls Dollmaster: Darren Chen signature!





This is part of an art piece done by some of the participating artists/designers!




We went back on the last day 16 August 2009 (Sunday) to get our signature. Phew! We manage to get the last 2 wristband to obtain the signature. Heres the artist in action!




As 1 wristband only allow 1 person to sign 2 items, we brought along 2 toys and 2 event guides to obtain our signature. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we got our 2 toys, 1 event guide and 1 apron (?!!) autographed!


Heres Mozzarella:



Bulletto:


Event guide:



And lastly the apron:

Heres a short clip of Simone Legno doodling and autographing the apron and Bulletto! Enjoy!

We sure had a great and tiring time and looking forward to next year STGCC! Hope there will be more exclusive toys like during the first toy convention... And hope that I can become a more creative and artistic person Haha =p
