TAGCC 2022 Draws 70,000-Strong Crowd to Tropicana Gardens Mall
The third installation of the Toys Anime Games and Comic Con (or better known as TAGCC) at Tropicana Gardens Mall was a huge success, pulling in fans, hobbyists and collectors by the hundreds.
The convention was an unforgettable experience for many as this was the best chance for fans to get hold of limited edition merchandises, meet up with cool cosplayers, admire detailed figurines and toys, and more.
The response for the two-day event, from 22 to 23 October 2022, was overwhelming thanks to the tremendous support and backing of the community. This time round, in a world rising from the Covid-19 ashes, the convention managed to fill up 120 booths at its Creative Art Market with another 45 exhibitors at the Toys and Collectibles Market, and played host to 19 hot names in the Malaysian cosplaying scene. On top of that, there were two tournament areas for Cardfight!! Vanguard, one being the Bahasa version.
The Creative Art Market proved to be a big hit with tons of merchandises, from stickers to pins, wax seals to prints and even tote bags, selling like hotcakes. Long queues were also seen at the Cosplay Market as fans turned up to show support for their favourite cosplayers and grab exclusive merchandises.
Special guests for the convention included Japanese artist Ma and local cartoonist Ernest Ng; cosplayers YingTze and Luna Lorrain; and VTubers Liliana Vampaia and Lunaris Urufi.
Fans sang praises for the fun event packed with an impressive line-up and well thought out layout, making the TAGCC 2022 an outstanding chapter indeed.
