CENTER TWP — Clearview Mall was provided with extra security on Saturday, Jan. 26, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. as several costumed heroes from popular culture roamed the shopping center.

The heroes, who varied in age and size, had a special mission for the afternoon: to find a good deal and have fun.

“I’m here looking for Funko Pop and action figures,” said Mason Masiaud, 11, who said he was attending his third Butler Area Toy Show. “I bought a big Groot action figure.”

The fourth Butler Area Toy Show hosted vendors from across the country who sold items like video games, Legos, Matchbox cars and even Nerf guns. Toy collectors gathered to share their fandom, cosplay as their favorite characters and look for missing items for their collection.
