The Gold Coast has a Doll Show with a difference – the first annual Gold Coast Doll Show has an exciting line up and includes a pop culture market.

Vendors have gone out of their way to display full sets of mint condition toys and memorabilia and Japanese premium sets such as the Blythe doll and Gundam models.

We have exquisite designers with their handmade goods and larger toy stores with new toys and comics as well. Free entertainment includes a classic magic show from Drace the Illusionist complete with rabbits.

Meet Princess Ariel for free photos, played by international cosplay champion Major Sam. She’s absolutely stunning in costume, an adorable public figure and loves to pose for photos with the kids.

The show is hosting the Reborn Competition, displaying real borns so perfectly crafted you could swear you saw them move. Many of them are also for sale – kits and materials to start your own reborning are available from the market. Email [email protected] for any stallholder applications.
