STGCC 2009 preview - Hasbro cum TRU booth - part 1

STGCC 2009 Banner.

I was fortunate to attend the special preview and opening night of the Singapore Toy, Games & Comic Convention (STGCC) 2009 held this evening.  Thanks to fellow toy blogger Joshua who informed me, I managed to receive a media pass from LEon to the opening night of STGCC 2009.  I also met a few other toy bloggers (Dennis, Adrian, Bayu & Zhi Hao) who were invited to cover and blog about this highly anticipated event of the year!

To me, the greatest excitement and joy of attending the STGCC 2009 preview is to find the Hasbro booth greatly improved from last year.  For this year, Hasbro teamed up with Toys ‘R’ Us (TRU) not just to display its toys, but also to sell them!  To top it all, some hot favourite exclusive Hasbro toys from the recent San Diego Comic Convention (SDCC) 2009 were also available for sale there!

Since the G.I.Joe movie is still screening in the cinemas, Hasbro devoted quite a few of their display areas to showcase those toys.  Of course some latest waves of the ever popular Transformers Revenge of the Fallen (ROTF) toys were also on display and for sale there.  Due to the limited memory space on my nearly 7 years old digital camera, I focused on the in-trend G.I.Joe toy displays.

Nice G.I.Joe Movie deco on the base of the display cases.  The Hasbro shopping lists are attached there, together with pencils for buyers’ convenience.

All the above Movie G.I.Joe toys are available for sale at the Hasbro cum TRU booth of STGCC 2009.  The prices are the same as the regular retail prices out at the departmental stores.  Remember to bring along your TRU Star card to accumulate points with your purchases.

Come back again shortly for my next blog post on the SDCC 2009 exclusive toys for sale at the Hasbro cum TRU booth of the STGCC 2009.  I shall also share on how to go about purchasing them when you’re there!
