The success of September’s Montreal Comic Con means that the organizers aren’t going to waste any time prepping for the next one! And so, on December 6th, expect a one-day Comic Con featuring guests like Kane Hodder, Lloyd Kaufman and Monica Rial, plus a number of other guests soon to be announced! You can check out the official website for more info!
And coming up even sooner is the Montreal Toy Con–it’s a little out of the way for downtown-dwellers, taking place in St. Laurent’s Courtyard by Marriott Hotel, but if you’re looking for the best new and vintage comic, toys and collectibles, this is worth the trip! There’ll be a ton of dealers, plus cosplayers, LEGO and building enthusiasts and more! It goes down October 18th, costs only $4 (Kids 5 and under free) and is sure to be a blast!

Well, since we’ve already seen the guests, we can get to the meat of the show. What was there? Who was there? Well, we can answer both questions…
First of all, for a complete list of the dealers who showed at the con, just visit the Convention website to see who was there, or maybe to get connected to the awesome toy-sources you may have missed if you didn’t get to the con!

Yes…you read the title right….Deadpool riding a red candy apple Vespa scooter!
This ebay auction was listed by our good friend Jin Saotome.
Ah yes, Deadpool…what can be said about this merc’s fighting style? He uses every kind of weapon imaginable…and every vehicle imaginable! He’s been redesigned with a resculpted head, new body harness, attached handguns, extra pouches. and hand-painted to show off all the super detail on this figure. The swords are all new and hard plastic this time around and fit into the back sheathes which are now placed correctly. You also get a HUGE assortment of weapons for him to use and of course…what you’ve been waiting for…
THE DEADPOOL SCOOTER! Deadpool is riding in style now with this perfectly scaled custom Vespa scooter that’s been decked out with the Kaneda’s bike stickers from the movie Akira and other logos. It’s been painted with great detail, the body diecast and the tires are rubber allowing for hours of scootering fun. DP’s satchel of weapons magnetically attaches to the back so he can take his equipment with him to various missions. So, need a really unique gift for a GI Joe collector you know? Need a slick ride that will attract the ladies? Then don’t pass this auction up!
