Hey there my designer toy fans and those who greatly appreciate limited edition collectibles. Today marks the beginning of the Five Points Festival convention over at the ZeroSpace in Brooklyn and I will be heading over there shortly to see what I can muster for the purposes of some website coverage and support. Historically speaking, I’ve been attending this particular convention since it launched.

It began over at Pier 36 when they were calling that event space “Basketball City” and then onto the Brooklyn Expo Center before it became some kind of a ninja gym. They seem to have found some longtime location with the ZeroSpace and I am looking forward to attending once again. They start at 10AM for the VIP Badges and everyone else can get in around 11AM. Though I am sure the media badge lets me in earlier as well, its a Saturday, I need some coffee and then some coffee before braving such an adventure.
