At Mad Zombie Collectables, we believe collecting is even better when it’s shared.
South Australia has a fantastic community of collectors, fan clubs, cosplay groups, gaming communities and pop culture enthusiasts covering everything from Star Wars and science fiction to anime, comics, gaming, trading cards, diecast models and cosplay.
We’ve created this page as a handy reference for collectors looking to connect with other people who share their interests.
Pop Culture & Sci-Fi Groups
Aus Sci-Fi and Fantasy
Established in 1985, this group meets at The Brocas Warehouse (Ground Floor, 111 Woodville Rd, Woodville). Aus SciFi and Fantasy club members meet to discuss all things Science Fiction and Fantasy related. Each meeting starts with a discussion/presentation on a particular theme of Sci Fi or Fantasy with ample time for other activities such a quiz, board games, and a monthly raffle. When possible we invite guest speakers to cover a variety of topics from novels to costuming etc.
