Toycon 2022: Back With A Bang

Image
After a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Philippine Toy, Hobbies, And Collectibles Convention is back on stage. And it delivers a grand experience for toy lovers once again.  Going Back To Its Roots In 2001, Toycon started as a simple gathering of toy enthusiasts at SM Megamall’s Megatrade Hall.
