    Sep 9 2024
    Is Retro Con the best toy show on the east coast? A number of toy fans certainly think so, and with good reason. The Pennsylvania event offers so much for collectors and attendees of all ages. Across more than 67,000 square feet of toy show space, it contains more than 300 booths filled with vintage and modern toys, with a number of the dealers saving their best items for Retro Con. And over the past decade, collectors have had some incredible Star Wars finds at the show. Will that wonderful streak continue this year? Join host David Quinn as he travels to Oaks, Pennsylvania for a return to Retro Con. Hear from collectors about what the show is like, what they picked up, and why you need to be there next year. If you’re looking for carded and loose Kenner figures, sealed mailers, a plethora of Tri-logo items, graded Black Series and Vintage Collection pieces and all of the ephemera from the past three Star Wars trilogies, you’ll find them at Retro Con. This is why toy trip weekends are special. And this is Star Wars: Prototypes and Production!
