Over the summer we visited a Eckman's Toy Show in New Braunfels, Texas. We were excited to go but didn't want to get our hopes up in case it ended up being a bust (10 tables max and 5 filled with barbies as we had previously experienced at another "show").
It ended up being a success and we had one of our best hauls there. Keep in mind that we are new collectors and this was our fourth toy show of the year. We definitely will be heading back again! I believe that this show is twice a year, and it is worth it.
As promised, here is our minimate haul:

We've never seen loose minimates (or any minimates really) at any of the shows that we've been too, so we were definitely excited to see these! We got hulk, beast, the thing, and cyclops for $1 each. There were a few more $1 loose figures but I think we were too excited to grab more.

Magneto and Blue Beetle were both marked for $5 but we ended up bundling all of our minimates for $11 total. Blue Beetle is missing his accessory but we'll do some research and find out what he should have come with. Maybe we'll have some luck and be able to find it.
The vendor recognized us from other shows so we will definitely be able to get some other good finds from him in the future!
We'll leave you off with one of our favorites. x-Factor Beast!
