The SINGAPORE TOY & COMIC CONVENTION (STCC) will be the first of its kind in Southeast Asia. The convention, modelled after San Diego Comics Convention and the Tokyo Game Show, is organised by Play Imaginative - the people behind the conceived-in-Singapore urban vinyl series “Trexi“.

Blasting off on 27-29 June 2008, the first-ever Singapore Toy & Comic Convention will feature a host of toys (general and designer), comics, animation, gaming, design, licensing and Cosplay from creative minds from all over the world, serving up an eye-popping visual feast and unprecedented variety and innovation in all the closely-related industries.

With exciting free giveaways, competitions, meet-and-greet sessions with acclaimed artists from around the world and much more - the inaugural Convention promises to bring the best of East and West together in one single, fun-filled event.
