54. Amazing Finds: The Toys for the Ages Expo in Carlisle, Pennsylvania (Part 2)

Star Wars: Prototypes and Production

Is there anything more exciting than an amazing toy find? Whether it’s a Blue Snaggletooth, totes full of hundreds of modern and vintage figures, or even the rare chance to own a Rocket-Firing Boba Fett prototype, we all have at least one story about a really memorable find, and it’s always exciting to hear ones from our fellow collectors. In fact, trading tales of toy pickups is one of the best parts of our hobby. The second part to Carlisle’s Toys For The Ages Expo Weekend covers Saturday’s show, from the time leading up to its opening to shopping during the early bird and general admission times, to lunch with Carlisle’s own Steve Rensi, and finishing the week afternoon hanging out with friends and collectors. The Toys For The Ages Expo was one of the most enjoyable toy weekends in a long, long time. The show boasted more than fifty vendors, who brought an incredible mix of toys and collectibles spanning the past five decades. Join host David Quinn as he reports from Saturday’s show and talks to vendors, shoppers and collectors as they share some of their incredible toy finds from over the years, in a new series for the podcast, titled “Amazing Finds.” The Toys For The Ages Expo Website: https://www.toysfortheagesexpo.com/ Toys For The Ages Expo Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/toysfortheagesexpo November’s upcoming Pasadena Toy Expo in Maryland: https://www.pasadenatoyexpo.com/ And if you enjoy Star Wars: Prototypes and Production, please: 1.
