We didn't have Blockbuster here in the Netherlands - Europe, but we did have Hollywood Video here as a chain although the biggest video rental chain here was Videoland which still operates today sadly not as brick and mortel rental store but as online streaming and rental platform.

Yeah, I’m not sure if I’m jealous or not for all those that have the BB nostalgia but I certainly don’t. Never rented games and only started doing a few BB movie rentals in the late 90s when I was able to drive.

What a fun and unique addition to any collection room! Though nostalgic for most, I've actually never been in a Blockbuster (our area only had mom & pop video rental places). Now, collect old gumballs and dare any game room visitors to take one! lol

Have such amazing nostalgia for Blockbuster not only from when I was a kid but when Scott and I first started dating in 2000 and we 'd hit up our local Blockbuster for date night and get a movie and a pizza. I'm sure as a kid or even a young adult I put many quarters in one of those but I don't know if I ever won LOL. Either way, nostalgia to the max on this video.
