Cardiff Comic Con October 2016

So in the last week of October I went to my local comic con with my good friend Zoe, who is also a big nerd like me (but much much more careful with her money), and also it was HER FIRST COMIC CON!! So this was a really important event for both of us!!! There was no queue which was quite shocking since I usually have to wait in a queue for a good 20-25 minutes but not this time!! As soon as we arrive we are in, and once we are I spend £30. Yep, that’s right we head in, turn a corner and I’ve already bought a load of stuff. It’s all down hill from here too!!

This was much smaller than ever. Usually your pushing people out of the way but this event was very quiet. Not that I’m complaining, it’s nice to be able to walk around a breathe. There were less stalls than usual too. Lots of variety but a lot less than usual. It was a nice first time for Zoe. There were so many amazing cosplays including The Enchantress which looked insane. There were also two boys in Deadpool costumes with Vegeta armour and Super Saiyan hair. TWO OF THE BEST COMBINATIONS!!!

Most of my gifts were mystery boxes since I’m slightly addicted to opening them. I managed to find a Gintama blind box as well as a Dragon Ball GT blind box. I bought two of them even though there is only three characters to collect. I also got myself a little Deadpool blind bag as well as a Sailor Moon blind bag. I also got myself some chibi Free! Iwatobi figurines which I cannot wait to show you!!

They were also selling tiny little Pokeballs which had the tiniest figurine in. I’ve already opened one which I cannot wait to show you!!! They are super adorable and I wish I knew if you could get them online. I also bought myself some Pokemon Mythical creatures pack. I’ve been seeing a lot of my favourite toy collecting Youtubers opening these and Dan’s niece is getting into the Pokemon fandom so it’ll be cute to trade and stuff with her. Also it’s a nostalgia thing for me!!

I also bought something I’ve been wanting to buy for a while which is the Saitama plushie. I love One Punch Man and I cannot wait for series two!! I was hoping they would bring out some figurines but until then, a plushie will do!! I may or may not have bought other things…I cannot remember but as you can see I bought quite a bit which means I have loads of unboxing posts coming up!!

I can’t wait for next years Comic Con!! I really want to go to Comic Cons in different cities such as Birmingham and Bristol and I would love to go to the London Comic Con again!! Anyone else been to a comic con recently?? Did you guys enjoy it?
