From miniature city blocks to cinematic photography, legendary cosplayers, and industry voices. AFCC’s programs celebrate imagination in every form.
Industry Panels
Hear directly from the creators shaping the future of our hobby. AFCC’s panel lineup features toy designers, brand leaders, comic artists, writers, publishers, and even newcomers from unexpected fields—athletes, entertainers, and creatives exploring the world of collectibles.
These sessions offer insights, behind-the-scenes stories, and a look at what’s coming down the pipeline. Whether you’re a collector, a creator, or simply curious, the panels deliver inspiration and inside knowledge you can’t find anywhere else.
Diorama City Block Display
Step into a handcrafted world built by six of Toronto’s most talented diorama artists. Together, they’re constructing an entire city block—each structure uniquely designed, detailed, and weathered to capture the true essence of urban storytelling.
This collaborative build will be showcased exclusively at AFCC, bringing together towering buildings, gritty alleyways, and cinematic streetscapes that highlight the individual style and craftsmanship of every artist involved.
AFCC Toy Photography Gallery
Featuring over 40+ toy photographers from around the world, the AFCC Photo Gallery celebrates the art of storytelling through action figures. Each frame captures cinematic moments, emotional portraits, and heroic scenes that blur the line between toy and reality.
All displayed photographs will be raffled at the event to raise money for charity, with full details to be announced soon. It’s a global showcase of creativity coming together for a meaningful cause.
COSPLAY FUNWALK
Meet the heroes, villains, and icons who step off the page and into real life. Cosplayers at AFCC bring beloved characters to life with passion, creativity, and incredible attention to detail—making them an essential part of the convention experience.
This year, AFCC is excited to welcome Toronto Game Expo, joining us to support our Cosplay Funwalk and elevate the celebration of creativity within our community. Alongside the funwalk, AFCC will host a special cosplay competition where, while every cosplayer is a winner in our eyes, three standout participants will walk away with something special to commemorate their performance and craftsmanship.

AFCC TOY
PHOTOGRAPHY
WORKSHOP
AFCC is excited to welcome Terrell Comix, toy photographer and visual storyteller, to the very first Action Figure Comic Con!
Appearing under his Instagram name Terrell Comix, Jeff approaches toy photography as a form of visual storytelling — using action figures to create mood, emotion, and narrative in a single frame. His work focuses on making toys feel alive, cinematic, and grounded in story rather than spectacle.
Stay tuned for stories, highlights, and updates from across the AFCC community.
