We Just Ran Our First Horror Convention! -Toy Federation Podcast

Welcome to the Toy Federation Podcast after the successful Retro-Horror Con after show, where the hosts dive deep into running their ambitious new venture: an "everything toy show" with a horror theme. Unlike most horror shows, which often lack a strong toy vendor base, this convention was designed specifically to be family-friendly and appeal to collectors interested in toys from across the decades. The show successfully merged interest in vintage toys with an array of modern collectibles, including popular lines like Funkos, NECA, Legends figures, and blind boxes. Listen as the team discusses the impressive turnout, securing high-profile guests like Roger L. Jackson (voice of Ghostface from the Scream franchise) and Jonathan Breck (The Creeper from Jeepers Creepers) despite being a first-year convention, and the unique vendors, including collectibles and toy manufacturers like Trick or Treat Studios and Grindhouse Toys. This episode details the challenging but rewarding process of building a new show, catering to collectors of both classic and modern figures, and the excitement for expanding this unique toy-focused event in the future.#toys #toycollector #toystore WATCH and SUBSCRIBE to Our Other Channels and Socials!*Main YouTube Channel: youtube.com/@toyfederation*Toy Federation Facebook: facebook.com/ToyFederationShop*Toy Federation Instagram: instagram.com/ToyFederationShop/BUY TICKETS for our UPCOMING TOY FEDERATION CONVENTIONS!*Our Toy Convention November 21-23, 2025: Retro-Toycon.comTOY FEDERATION PODCAST ALSO AVAILABLE AT:*Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/mwuw3mtv*Apple Podcast: https://tinyurl.com/3pnbsyzf*Amazon Music: https://tinyurl.com/2bxsvccjWATCH EVERY EPISODE of the Toy Federation Podcast in one convenient PLAYLIST!https://tinyurl.com/3ds8yr36BUY Toy Federation MERCH!http://www.teepublic.com/user/toy-federationCOME OUT and VISIT OUR SHOP in Person! 104 Middleton Way, Greer, SC 29650Monday 10 AM–7 PMTuesday 10 AM–7 PMWednesday 10 AM–7 PMThursday 10 AM–7 PMFriday 10 AM–7 PMSaturday 10 AM–8 PMSunday Closed
