Meet Nazario Claudio, the collector behind Trash Panda Graphicz (TPG), a booth built on creativity, resourcefulness, and a passion for the collecting community.

The name Trash Panda started as a nickname from Nazario’s previous work. After finding a useful item in a trash bin during a project, his coworkers joked that his ability to discover hidden solutions made him a real-life raccoon, or “Trash Panda.” The name stuck and became the perfect fit for a brand focused on curiosity, creativity, and uncovering unique finds.

A lifelong collector, Nazario has always had a passion for Pokémon, video games, anime, art, and collectibles. After years of collecting and helping build a previous collectibles business with friends, he launched Trash Panda Graphicz to bring his passion directly to collectors at events across the region.

Since joining the CCS community, Nazario has loved the welcoming atmosphere and focus on building real connections between collectors. That same approach drives TPG today: collectors first, vendors second. Every interaction is built around honest advice, friendly conversations, and helping fans find something they’ll truly enjoy.

With an ever-changing selection of Pokémon cards, anime collectibles, video games, artwork, and unique hobby finds, Trash Panda Graphicz brings the thrill of discovery back to collecting. Like the name suggests, the best treasures are often found in the places you least expect.
