The night before the show we were
invited to visit show organizers Jim and Lisa's shop Carasells
Collectibles. |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
Inside
we found an amazingly eclectic selection of pop culture items. |
|

We
could have spent all night roaming through the spacious shop but the
night grew long and the morning would bring us
the 2012
Deland
Comics & Collectibles Show |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
Just before the doors opened we
quickly set up our table. |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
Vendors were selling Star Wars
toys from every collection. |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
Barbie collectors had plenty of
good deals to find. |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
People were finding great deals
and cool items all day long. |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
One dealer had a very nice
selection of old records - including that classic - "Magoo Hi-Fi" (I
wonder if that's on iTunes?) |
|
|
 |
|
|
Older items weren't the only
things on sale plenty of vendors had newer collectibles including
this great Halo statue. |
|
|
 |
|
|
Whatever collectibles you were into - the odds are you could find it
there - check out that Seaview model ... and look there's Mr. Magoo
again. |
