I had the most exciting and wonderful day at The Singapore Toy, Game and Comic Convention (STGCC) 2013, Marina Bay Sands Convention Hall! This year, I went with my colleagues/ friends and it was a totally different experience, even more fun. :) I guess it is the fun of sharing our excitement of seeing something with each other. :) Again, like STGCC 2012, four phrases to describe:
Amazing artwork!
Awesome cosplay!
Masssive crowd!
Incredible fun!
This year, Iron Man seems to be the highlight of STGCC. He is everywhere! Lol.
