If you are looking for a cheap $3 admission to a toy show, go to the Scottish Cultural Center, Pop Culture Show which happens 4 times a year. R&R no longer exists. The closest thing to it is the Scottish Cultural Center Show which has seen drastic improvement since 2017 after a lot of the previous R&R vendors are vending there now. The tables are now selling out 2 months before the show instead of not even close to selling out at shows before 2017. Ages 3 and up are vending there everytime now as well.

I was a helper at one of the tables there, and this show is now over 200 tables of comics, toys, collectibles. Around 40% of the tables are comics, and the rest are toys and collectibles. Big toy shops like Toy Traders, Big Petes, Ages 3 and up, and Cherry Bomb Collectibles were all vending there. They did raise the admission from $8 to $12 and tables price are now $90, due to moving to PNE which is a much more expensive venue. I would recommend going next time if you have a big multiple toyline or comics want list, then for sure the $12 is still worth it.
If you only collect one particular toyline, and very few things on your want list, you might not be able to find something you want there and I would just get a friend who is going to help to see if your wanted item is there. |
