One:12 Collective A Nightmare on Elm Street: Freddy Krueger

“Whatever you do, don’t fall asleep!” 
The One:12 Collective Freddy Krueger figure features four head portraits capturing the fearsome expressions of the dream demon, including one with a removable faceplate that reveals a skull sculpt - from the iconic scene where Freddy & Tina have a fatal encounter. Freddy is outfitted in his infamous stripped sweater and comes complete with his signature clawed gloves and a trash can lid, straight from Tina’s nightmare.
In Wes Craven's classic slasher film, ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’, several teenagers fall victim to Freddy Krueger as he preys on them in their dreams. Dark secrets start to unravel as the teens suspect their parents may be the key to solving the puzzle before it’s too late.

SDCC 2018 Final Recap Part 2

Another one of our favorite outside events is from Super7. They had 2 different events this year held at their store which is a few blocks from the convention center. They had Hordak's Lair starting on Preview Night to Thursday of SDCC and then Friday evening to Sunday was The Boodega. Check out all the pictures from both events and of course from their booth inside the exhibit hall.

SDCC 2018 Final Recap Part 1

SDCC 2018 went by quickly this year. There was definitely improvements. One of the best things is that they shut down the streets in front of the convention center during convention hours. It made the sidewalks less congested which was wonderful! There are still are lines to get into the exhibit hall and the convention center each day. The lottery drawings for autographs, exclusives etc... seemed to make things a bit better as well. The lines to get in were probably a tad bit longer but it also meant that people wouldn't be camping out for exclusives from companies such as Funko.

There were a lot of outside events/ experiences and there are lines for those as well. So pretty much you need to plan your days and pick your poison with what you want to do or what you want to get each day. If you're with a group and can divide and conquer that's great too. One of our favorite offsite events is going to the Conan O'Brien Show. A lot of the outside events/experiences does not require you to have a SDCC Badge but there are some that do.

Here's some of our pictures from SDCC 2018 below in our slideshow. We posted more on our instagram (handle is collectingtoyz) during SDCC so check them out.

The Nightmare Before Christmas 25th Anniversary Pop-Up Experience

The Nightmare Before Christmas 25th Anniversary Pop-Up Experience which also featured The Many Faces of Jack Skellington. This was a surprise during SDCC. Found out about this the day of the pop-up experience had opened and had to go and check it out since it was only there for a few days. It was held outdoors and they showed a selection of custom Jack Skellington heads by various artists. There was also a special magical tree that when you peered inside, you could see Christmas Town. See our pictures below:

LAIKA LIVE! San Diego

LAIKA LIVE San Diego was held during SDCC and we were lucky to get into the Media Event on Preview Night during SDCC. The media event let us in to check out the exhibit inside and there was food and drinks offered to us as well. We got to check out the merchandise and of course a piece of the set of the new movie Missing Link which is scheduled to hit theaters in the Spring of 2019. We also got to meet Mr. Link himself waiting for us to get our pictures taken with him. The lines were long every day for this and it is well worth the wait if you love LAIKA and Stop Motion Animation. Check out our pictures below.



This experience is one of the best outside events during SDCC.
