It's not just all about toys in ToyCon 2017 so in part 2 I have some awesome things to say about the stage performances that I saw and the panel that I attended to and for a bit of an extra, Cosplays! Man, this is where I wish someone went with me in this event... Welp I guess I will be flying solo!
PART 1
The panel that I watched is about starting your YouTube or blogging career, well the gist of it. The unfortunate thing is that I watched this panel midway but I'm glad that I still got some opinions and tips from the panelists.
It resonates well with me and those who want to start making money on YouTube and blogging. The other panelists, I think, are on the same level of experience as me, but they're more popular and probably have better resources and equipment. Also, these guys have normal jobs like me.
I can totally relate on what they're saying, because I started my Randomly Random blog almost 5 years ago and I got approved by Google AdSense in mid 2016. Now it's 2017 and my ad revenue is so hilariously low that I can't claim it yet. A bit of my history: technically I've been blogging for more than a decade and I started on MySpace.
So if you're going to start making YouTube videos or blog posts, don't expect to get some money instantly.
Ether is about to hit the Green Ranger |
Here's a pro tip from me and those panelists, just make this thing a hobby, have fun with it and maybe your channel or blog will grow. It's just like planting and taking care of a tree.
Oh yes! Janice Hung, the actress that plays Ether from the Filipino tele-fantasya series Encantadia is a part of the panel and she's wearing her costume!

Hmmm? I was wondering what was that Japanese song playing so I followed the music and saw that it was an actual stage performance of a Japanese idol, Nana Yamada!
O! Nana-chan noticed me! |
Ooh! Ooh! She's stripping! |
After watching Nana Yamada, the Fightsaber group's stage performance is about to begin. This is the first time I saw these guys perform.
The lightsaber fights are well choreographed and I watched it till the end, meaning that their performance is very entertaining. It's like these guys are real Jedi Knights and Sith Lords.
They were using some audio from the movie. Sorry because I'm not sure which movie is this from, but I'm guessing it's from Rogue One (the movie that I missed to watch).

They're fighting the Emperor |
And now, the cosplays. I said earlier that I wish someone went with me in ToyCon 2017. The reasons are the more the merrier and so that someone will take pictures of me with these cosplayers and vice versa.
So many different species of Spideys |
I think this is the Spiderman from the upcoming PS4 video game |
They're cosplayers, not statues |
Random girls with a bunch of Storm Troopers and TIE fighter pilots. |
I had a hard time taking the Jawa's pic. Lack of light and broken lens auto-focus forcing me to go manual focus all the way in this event.
Wait something very familiar with their color scheme... Aha! Sailor Moon Filipiniana Version with Rose Quartz from Steven Universe!
Awesome! The Suicide Squad are here. |
Wait... they're missing someone. Where's Slipknot? Oh this must be the part where his head got blown off.
Daaaw! Overwatch's Mei is so cute!
Uh oh! One of the nurses spotted me! |
Other cosplays that I saw that I had difficulty taking their pics is Cloud Strife, the protagonist and Tae Takemi from Persona 5, Ironman, Black Widow and lots of anime girls and boys that I don't know which anime/manga they've come from.
By the way, the World Cosplay Summit 2017 are held in this event. Sadly I don't have time to watch it, I'm a busy dude, and I feel I'm getting a cold around that time. Too bad Day 2 gets really better at night. Why I got a cold? I skated the other day and the rain suddenly fell down real fast that I got soaked with cold rain water while my body is hot and sweaty.
And that's part 2! Part 3 is totally unrelated but it's part of my ToyCon 2017 experience!
Cheers!
