Press Release | Filbar’s Brings in Sought-After, Exclusive Collectibles to Asia Pop Comicon Manila 2015
1:33 AM
September is the start of numerous big pop culture, anime,
and cosplays conventions for the latter part of the year. I am very excited for
these conventions because it is here that we see wonderful cosplays, bond with
friends, enjoy performances, and buy great merchandise.
Speaking of merchandise, one of the biggest events this
month will be full of that. Asia Pop Comicon Manila 2015, which will be held
from September 17-20, 2015 at the World Trade Center, will feature all kinds of
merchandise, from toys to collectibles to comics to action figures. One of the
stores who will bring exclusive and sought-after collectibles in APCC is Filbar’s.
Filbar’s, the country's premier
one-stop shop for all pop culture needs, is bringing a wide array of exclusive
collectibles to Asia Pop Comicon Manila 2015, matching the event’s stellar
guest lineup that includes actors Colton Haynes and Paul Bettany, on September
17-20 at the World Trade Center in Pasay City.
The Hot Toys Booth, powered by
Filbar’s or Booth K#19, will
delight action figures hobbyists with four Hot Toys 2015 Toy Fair
Exclusives—the Iron
Man Mark XXIV Tank, Maria Hill, Luke Skywalker (Stormtrooper Disguise Version),
and Metal Gear’s Raiden (Inferno Armor Version). Special Edition Hot Toys based on
Marvel and Star Wars properties are also available for preorder in limited
quantities during the event.
Known for its realistic diecast
figures, Hot Toys fittingly found its Philippine distributor, Filbar’s, in
showcasing its detailed and high quality products. It previously partnered with
Filbar’s for its “Avengers: Age of Ultron” exhibition last May.
Over at Booth K#22, Beast Kingdom’s Floating Iron
Man Mark III and Star Wars Egg Attack Action Dark Vader, will be exclusively available for
purchase. Other items not-to-be-missed are Filbar’s Science Bros Philippine Exclusive Funko Pops, Iron Man Unmasked and Glow
in the Dark Hulk.
Comics by guests David Yardin and
David Mack are also available at Booth K#22. Manila-based comics artists Kim Jacinto (All-New,
All-Different Marvel’s Angela: Queen of Hel), Heubert Khan Michael (Vampirella), Carlo Pagulayan (Convergence), and
Jason Paz (Convergence) will
also be signing books on the booth during the event.
