Think Outside the Toybox: Star Wars Black Series figures
Thanks to Tyson B. one of our toy guys for this.
When I first heard about the launch of the new Star Wars Black Series Line from Hasbro a few years back I thought, “Oh, great what the world needs, more Star Wars toys.” Don’t get me wrong I love the first three (IV,V,VI), and the original Kenner toy line. I just lost track with the new Trilogy. But something that stuck out was that they were going to do something for the first time ever, 6 inch Star Wars action figures. I like different so I figured I would concentrate on those.

Mel's guide to selling Funko Pops
Updated 3/5/16:
What’s up CHU, Mel the Movie guy here. So I was reading the Pop Article and I’m going to give suggestions on how to flip Pops. Flipping pops is different than flipping comics, as most comics get hot the 1st week of release then fizzle out, but with pops once they get hot they pretty much keep that value. When I started buying pops last year I was just buying the characters I knew and wanted to see them on my mantel.

The Big Apple Comic Con is a New York City comic book convention, the longest-running comic book/science fiction/fantasy/horror/pop culture convention in New York City. It was started by retailer Michael “Mike Carbo” Carbonaro in March 1996 in the basement of the Church of St. Paul the Apostle. During its heyday from 2001–2008, the Big Apple Comic Con often featured multiple shows per year, with a large three-day “national” convention held in November, usually held at the Penn Plaza Pavilion.
