Bigger storage space to accomodate an xtreamly huge crowds this time around, but the number is so overwhelming to the organiser itself.

The sales has got many diffrence products to choose from ranging from Babies / toddler toys (FISHER PRICE, Barney), to gals doll (BARBIE, molly pocket) and to boys toys (HOTWHEELS, JUSTICE LEAGUE and others.)
