Meet Carlos Castillo of Castle Cosplay!

I'm a Colombian born cosplayer, banker by day, Super Saiyan by night, from downtown Toronto. I've been attending Cons for a little over a year, but like any other cosplayer, I always went all out for Halloween and looked for ANY reason to dress up. I attended a couple of cons in half made costumes in the past, but it wasn't until Toronto Comicon 2015 when I really was bit by the cosplay bug, and started my cosplay page/Instagram.
​
As a kid growing up, I was obsessed (and still am) with Dragonball Z, so naturally that has been what my cosplays are normally centered around; although I do other ones from many different fandoms (particularly proud of my Crash Bandicoot Cosplay!). This will be my first time being a cosplay guest, and am so excited to meet everyone and help in planning amazing and fun activities during the day, and some crazy cosplay after dark parties!! ;)

Matthew Cimone and Paul Muzzin ARE Chasing Atlantis!

In July 2011, when space enthusiasts travelled the work to witness the epic closure of the space shuttle era, Matt Cimone began a three-year journey of discovering acceptance, belonging and himself. Joined by director and long-time friend Paul Muzzin, they endeavour to connect with sci-fi enthusiasts, pop culture icons and current/former space workers in an attempt to resuscitate a dream that is so far out that it may as well be in space!

Chasing Atlantis is a documentary under production. http://www.chasingatlantis.com

Inside Up Games

Inside Up Games began before it was ever named, when board game enthusiast Conor McGoey was struck with an original game idea while lying awake one night. Luckily the striking didn’t leave any permanent bruising, just the foundation for “Summit” which would become this company’s first game. http://insideupgames.com

Dwarven Forge

​
Dwarven Forge was founded in 1996 by artist Stefan Pokorny, a medieval fantasy devotee -- and an avid Dungeons and Dragons enthusiast. As a classically trained, professional painter and sculptor, Stefan decided to create "real" dungeon terrain that would equal his incredible 25mm tall hero figures. After many months of painstaking design, sculpting and painting, he introduced the world's finest pre-painted miniature terrain in 1996. Response from gamers was overwhelming! They loved the fact the pieces are fully hand-painted and ready to use out of the box. They marveled at how they could rearrange the pieces to depict an infinite number of fantasy settings. And they appreciated the amazing durability of his cast "polystone." Since then, Dwarven Forge has released many new sets – each fully compatible with the others, and each a new step forward in terrain design, yet maintaining a dedication to fine craft and excellent durability. Since 1996, thousands of loyal collectors have purchased Dwarven Forge sets for their miniature and RPG games, cool dioramas, and for the beauty of the product itself. These sets are built to last, and many collectors are now sharing them with their children and grandchildren. http://www.dwarvenforge.com
