SPENDING $5,000 AT A VINTAGE TOY STORE!

[@Nathan93Baker]

This is full vibes of watching Anthony go to a toy shop and buying a basket full of his favorite sealed 80s/90s toys. This is all of us back when we were kids with our birthday money going wild at Toys R Us. Damn nastolgea. Take me back.😢

[@thomasgrabowski2202]

right??? Damn. G1 megatron wow....$600 bucks :O !

[@DawnoftheDead1]

Dude, that’s like thinking back and knowing that was the best time of my life 😭🫣

[@ramonortiz3267]

What isnthe name store

[@lostpockets2227]

yall goofy ahh old af

[@James-xy7ot]

I never wanted to grow up lol, wanted to be a toys r us kid forever 😂

[@DropkickMurphysFan01]

Never ceases to amaze me how vintage Star Wars is just straight up a currency in itself!

[@cotch.]

@@fml2266 what a moronic comment. This is history, these items should be kept pristine and looked after. Kids can find plenty of other stuff to play with than vintage rare collectables.

[@somewhataddicted7685]

@@cotch. and those toys will become like this eventually.

[@buckiemohawk3643]

friend got a locker for 25 bucks Had a bunch of 80s toys in the box MY little pony gi joe blackstar thundercats and mask with transformers

[@awrogers3013]

The more I watch this the more I realize this is just big kid buying toys because he still loves them. It’s vinyl for me, dude

[@KirksCORNER1983]

It's reliving our childhood a time when things were fun!! AND America didn't SUCK like it does now!!.

[@baxoutthebox5682]

Sports cards and watches for me, nothing better than splurging on something with your hard earned money. Money really can buy happiness (for a while and with diminishing returns).

[@Seb726Laviolette]

Money can buy pleasure but not happiness.. 🤙

[@crystalwaters7081]

For me old vintage jewelry and vinyl…love the old toys tho…Froggy keeps me interested, especially at his garage sales! 😊

[@edradu7964]

We all still have that same kid in us, me it's lego and playing guitar and I collect pokemon cards with my son, it's more for him but I enjoy the time we spend together collecting and building binders

[@patrickblack6080]

Those shop owners seem so cool, professional, kind, and love of the trade

[@schadenfreude6274]

If someone buys $5000 of plastic junk from me, I would also be cool, professional and kind. :)

[@CallYourDaddy]

People are cool in the Midwest, I live in Fort Wayne

[@NERD-FROM-THE-SOUTH]

​@schadenfreude6274 junk? 😅 I believe your on the wrong channel sir.

[@timb4425]

Dude! One word.... WOW! What a haul! Super awesome to find a shop that treats you fair on trade credit and works with you to find what you are looking for. Great shop, great score, and great video!

[@tiradinusrex3793]

This store is an 80's / 90's kid toy paradise. What an amazing score and a great shop!

[@anthonycarlisle6184]

Yeah, but if everything is priced staggeringly that penguin figure [$150] I had as a kid, nah.

[@TheRustyCracker]

Have you ever heard of the tulip story? Collectible toys is very similar

[@guillermodelnoche]

I used to go antiquing at yard sales and swap meets with my mother and watching your videos reminds me of those special times when you found treasure. I appreciate your videos and knowledge!

[@ThePeck911]

Rancor Monster. Ages 4 and up. No way that would be a thing today! There was no better time for toys than the '80's! Glad I was there for it. Great finds!

[@danrose3189]

Exactly the 80s was the best time for toys.

[@josephwilliams9037]

John is a great guy!! Known him for many years. Glad you got to visit his store.

[@PongbyAtari]

@Anthony that looks like it was a lot of fun I just started watching your channel a couple months back I love it!

[@sdevine182]

Holy moly that’s a lot of crazy vintage toys

[@FroggyFlips]

For sure!

[@blankspace9842]

I ended up getting the same R2 at a garage sale. the lady was cleaning out her attic. I ended up only paying 50 dollars. it came with it mint in box with all paper work. also on the plus it works still. loved the video man. keep up the great work.

[@GreymaneGames]

OH MAN! I did a lot of pausing on this video. THIS IS WHAT HEAVEN LOOKS LIKE! Those Star Wars AT-ATs on the counter....nostalgia overload!

[@Whatsthisbout]

I love the specific taste you have, and how it has evolved and continues to. Its cool to see someone appriaicate things in this manner. Cheers, I really enjoy watching your videos.

[@lostworldvideogames]

Great video as always! Hope the wifey is doing good. We share a common thing with both of our wife’s having MS.

[@FroggyFlips]

Well thanks man, hope yours is doing well too!

[@djjamison6548]

Hugs for each of your wives.

[@thepeculiars]

Another great video from Anthony!! Thanks as always for awesome and inspiring collector content bro! Cheers from your fans in the Philippines!

[@FroggyFlips]

Thanks so much!

[@whopainter648]

I live in Australia and drool over your choices in the U.S. Great vids mate. I love your positivity

[@AutomaTom1939]

Nice! I recognized Crown Point from the thumbnail--love that store! I've bought a ton of '90s toys there. The dudes that work there are awesome!

[@brentonatkins]

So much amazing stuff!! Another amazing video Froggy!!

[@deanraney1049]

Great buys. Paid up for some but you are a collector as well as a reseller. Nice hunting froggy.

[@nvmbrsdoom5]

Crown Point Toys & Collectibles is a GREAT store, I'm in Chicago so I trek out to Crown Point when I can to stop by this store, which unfortunately isn't often enough. But every time I've shopped there I've found some great stuff and they have overall some extremely reasonable prices. Plus there's a bunch of other cool stores as well as restaurants and breweries within walking distance or a very short drive so it makes for a fun day trip. I'm hoping to stop through there next week actually! Enjoyed the video, cheers!

[@NERD-FROM-THE-SOUTH]

This guy's called "a legend" in this hobby for a reason. He's kind,respectful, and just all around a kid who grew up and can get this stuff now. It's very inspiring. I'm new to the hobby and only own a few figures, but hopefully, I'll find grails at some point.

[@rogertrump1026]

Absolutely love the fact that you buy locally. Need more KZbinrs to be like this and support local businesses. Also, that toy store has a lot of good stuff inside, nice pickups. I would go broke with all the items in there

[@1986teambeast]

You have the best vintage toys videos on the American KZbin in my opinion. Thanks for all the videos.

[@yeasonwhat]

Your getting me into wanting to collect vintage toys now every video I watch I get more hooked

[@Filonious]

I just find it great to see an old school toy store that busy....theres some hope for our future generations

[@Goonie02]

This is a dream! Awesome content

[@chocolatefrenzie2698]

I so love watching your videos, that was great thanks Anthony and Sarah

[@jonnymmac]

As someone who went through and did this some years ago, I can tell you had fun. Congrats.

[@Tekillyah]

Hot dang Frogman the pulls! Sarah ought to get one of those go pros :)

[@conross1038]

Hi just watched Toy Attics,and you questioned whether you were doing the right thing,I'm Con from Dundee Scotland,who watches all your videos and it's not about you just buying toys,it's about watching someone (you) having so much love and enthusiasm for what you do,that makes your videos so watchable,don't stop and thanks for being you.

[@raewyn7618]

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, if only.....I worked for Toltoys in the 70's and 80's and we imported toys into Australia for wholesalers/retailers. Kenner being one of the major companies we dealt with. Seeing all those Star Wars brings back so many wonderful memories. Imagine if i had kept one of everything but it never even crossed my mind to think of them as an investment. 💰💰💰

[@Owens777]

That penguin took me back! The Batman line from that run was one of my favorites

[@jorugarushia9167]

Amazing finds. And great pricing on a lot of those items. Not too expensive and cheap. The sweet spot where everyone can make profit.

[@ewetube8003]

Left wanting more as usual! I could watch this stuff for hours. Very much looking forward to the convention video. Luv ewe! 🐑

[@borislam698]

Like how you handled the toys so gently every time you touched them. Respect. I do that all the time when I am choosing toys.

[@theamericanhiker9655]

Love watching you go through toys I had as a kid and destroyed 😂🤣

[@FroggyFlips]

Lol, thank you!

[@secondsnakenature]

Google Lens is a huge blessing when needing to find things. I like the update, you don't have to take a picture no more, you can just click lens and then the button. Can even do a basic Google search with camera. I LOVE IT!

[@Ingeronic]

You are one of the most humble and interesting youtubers i've been subscribed too, I hope you keep it up. In the UK we don't have this sort of demand for these items or these sorts of shops as much, I look forward to your stall at the convention, I hope you get to walk around before hand and record a lot of you selling.

[@bonezsj]

There's toy fairs but it's definitely a niche over here

[@joellen4878]

Oh my goodness Anthony thank you so much for the awesome video! Every time I watch one of your videos it takes me right back to my childhood!! Also always appreciate how kind you are to everyone you come in contact with.

[@vintagecrazyjay4970]

Super fun trip! I'd keep that Megatron, I have one in the box and never selling it. Thanks for taking us along on your journey!

[@GringoLoco1]

Haven't thought of Service Merchandise in forever -- sure spent a LOT of $$ with them. Good episode!

[@Sasha-lg1ln]

Yay! Another froggy video! Day got instantly 100% better :)

[@ryanhudgins9004]

Dude !! Such a cool episode ! The prices were on point In that place ! Keep up the great work !!

[@tvfilm]

Makes you wonder how rare some of this stuff is when it seems like there’s so many out there sealed. I think in the 90's people started to preserve the toys more than open them unlike in the 70's and 80's. Still very cool to see all these. Seems like this stuff is all in the midwest unlike the two coasts. Anyhow, I wish Elliott went on the trip. Love that kid! He’s so intelligent like his father and mother!

[@greenwave5799]

My favorite video to date! I have been watching you for years and love how you have slowly but surely worked your way into a niche you love. Keep being awesome Froggy!

[@thedon219]

What an awesome cool store! I love the ones where the store owners and workers are so cool and actually like to work with the ppl! Great haul!

[@justinharper3472]

Awesome video! Would love to see some more like it. Great idea!

[@GOJH3012]

If only i could watch this one in VR....this was INSANELY great to watch.

[@volflipz]

That clown helium tank topper for $50 is awesome! Major nostalgia for me with that.

[@theramplocal]

Dude I love this channel. My childhood and your enthusiasm in these memories/toys is so awesome

[@dfigurski9]

I just rewatched the nostalgia business videos last week and was hoping you would do another episode of that but this video gave me similar vibes! Awesome video, keep up the good work!

[@super1515]

I love this idea! What a great way to show people other ways to get deals or better prices on things they want with trade in potential. Great idea and a great job filming it and explaining. Thats why I keep coming here to watch your vids

[@FroggyFlips]

I appreciate that, thank you!

[@yvesisevil]

That store is amazing. Thanks for sharing this cool "hunt".

[@arowdygator]

Oh ya! Ive been getting some stuff from them online! 😊

[@FroggyFlips]

Nice!

[@dreamsreselling7215]

Beautiful items there Anthony ! That clown head is really cool . Luv ya :)

[@MountainTopHigh]

I hope you have much success at your booth at the toy show. Be sure to take us along for the adventure!

[@noodlesoupyeah]

found froggy channel a couple days ago and man im obsessed, not even a collector either but these videos are just great, keep up the good work

[@chucktaylor166]

My 3 kids and I really love watching your videos. Much love from the Philippines!

[@JPhillyRetro]

OMG...you are living out my dreams and fantasies, my man. EPIC video!!

[@pjacobs1338]

I’m so jealous that you guys have so many stores like this. It be great to just walk into one for nostalgia. Love your videos. Hope this investment works out for you!

[@micahbush3877]

Great video dude. Great store and great deals!! Keep the videos coming

[@pattravers2611]

I had a fun watching this. Thanks for posting! More of a music guy here, but I appreciate all collectors! I'm still a big kid at 53!🎉🎉🎉

[@AweebitJakey]

Holy froggy flippin CRAP!!!!! Best. Shopping trip. EVER. What an upload man, that's an amazing haul👍🔥🔥🔥

[@audiogus2651]

Really dig hearing about your various strategies and experiments!

[@guidope288]

Wow that’s an insane store. How do they have so much vintage stuff? I love it!

[@michaelmalech5742]

Let's be honest that's a decent looking store

[@Der-GANZMACHER]

What a DREAM. Go to a Shop and buy, buy, buy what you see and want. As alway a great video. Best wishes from Germany

[@xxWestman18xx]

We need more of these! This is an excellent format of video and just a fantastic product. Even going to a store and showing off what they have and some potential comps is cool.

[@gregmosley-iv3tz]

Great video. What an amazing toy store

[@justinfuller2039]

Its always a great day when you drop a video , you have quickly become on of my favorite youtube chanels

[@FroggyFlips]

I appreciate that!

[@HelpMeFindMyKeys]

Love this shop and Crown Point in general. My lady and I drive from Chicago regularly to thrift and eat at Provecho. If you didn’t visit there, I highly recommend making a stop on your next trip.

[@bilimus_]

What a great shop. That selection with those prices is uncommon in my neck of the woods. Good stuff, congrats on the haul

[@AP101083]

This store brings back a lot of memories A LOT!! Would love to visit it one day! Thanks for the video.

[@van8ryan]

I've slowly gotten back into collecting action figures again and I think it's largely thanks to your videos, man. I've really been digging these vlogs (especially the TMNT/REAL GHOSTBUSTERS is giving me MAJOR nostalgia)

[@lanceknightmare]

That was the same era I used to play with action figures. I would come up with the most basic plots in my head. The action figures would eventually end up battling each other. Those turtle figures which have the white circular joints are really good. If an arm falls off you can just put it back on. The plastic pin joints on the other hand like with the Power Rangers in Space figures . Once an arm or a leg falls off it is off unfortunately. My all time favorite figures were the Batman and Robin era figures. Even though they did not have the ball joints, these figurines were made very durable. All of the small accessories like swords and plastic suits were pretty cool as well.

[@zaner69]

This is really cool, I knew there was a market for vintage toys, but I had no idea it was to this extent. Just got this recommended in my feed and it was a very interesting video. Hope you do well selling these for a profit

[@raghumama11]

Hello Anthony, yet again a great day at a toy store, but this time it was all about getting some awesome stuff. 👍 All the best for your upcoming event. Waiting for more.❤

[@mcfish206]

Can you do a room tour sometime soon? I really wanna see ALL the stuff you have and collect!

[@shengsterino]

I see a lot of toys that I used to destroy during my childhood here! The teenage mutant ninja turtles and the GI Joe series

[@matthewtrapp7756]

Nice finds. Looking forward to this weekend. Hopefully we can see you soon there.

[@foliisgod7937]

awesome haul froggy, the Star Wars stuff you picked up is OUT OF THIS WORLD! Definitely the best and most desirable pieces I see you get a hold of in your videos.

[@k1ngp1n66]

Watch your channel often lately and this is my favorite upload so far. I love all the Star Wars stuff! Go to more vintage toy shops!!!

[@Als_Attic989]

Man what an awesome video Anthony! Nothing but awesome stuff. Thanks for giving me the motivation I needed to get my butt to some garage sales this weekend

[@swanspoon7728]

I love how much freedom the owners gave you! Made the video really cool

[@brendanconnelly1835]

Almost thought I should pick up that Jabba play set until you said the price. Love the trips down memory lane with these toys!

[@zacharyhoover7806]

This store is in my home town. It's my favorite store. They are always nice and if you buy a lot they make you deals. Definitely recommend their store

[@Rockinrn]

I’m really impressed by your knowledge!!

[@Gary_Daytona]

Livin’ the dream Anthony. Those Star War figures and playsets were AWESOME!

[@sallybarker7165]

Great video, thank you. Nice to see lovely Sarah looking fab. 🌻🌻

[@gregparks1785]

What a great store! The guys working there were super nice, what a good experience.

[@Daniel_Scott89]

Man. Every video I watch makes me want to get into collecting! Those TMNT pieces were amazing.

[@GrandmasGonnaFlip]

This was fun! Enjoyed it immensely. Nice to cya Sarah.

[@Merylstreep1949]

Oh snap I'm from Warsaw Indiana Didn't even know Crown Point had vintage toy stores, I've only heard about Kokomo Toy Store... damn I'm glad I just discovered your channel man!!!

[@thadofalltrades]

Great idea to flip slow moving items into things that will sell faster. Very smart. I started doing a similar thing with silver/silver plate stuff. The vintage stuff sells for more than spot value so I'm going to sell it and buy bullion.

[@gagelindell271]

That Megatron original is in my opinion the coolest toy ever made. Ive wanted to pull the trigger (no pun intended) on one of those for YEARS!!!!

[@HairyVR]

I have spent about 3K in videogames in a game store one time, a lot of Cashiers/employees are not impressed by big purchases. They're response is just "ok"

[@Fentvillex]

bro rec room guy fr

[@shanedaiken2831]

The guys at the store were really nice. Loved the shopping spree it was cool to see so many vintage items purchased at once Enjoyed the video!

[@justinconn1214]

You'd be nice to if some1 just gave u $5,000

[@J0hnnyTheKid]

Lol yup they got you too.I Spent $7,000. But I got a 10% discount. Sweet deals.

[@Buckingham212]

This was awesome, I had no idea those special/non standard edition of TMNT figures would ever be worth anything. Those were typically the ones you saw at KB Toys, while the original suit/standard figurine line up were the ones always sold out. Man this makes me want to buy back in and pay these prices lol Thanks for the content.

[@domsanimationstudios]

i love this youtube channel because it helps me find the rare and most wanted 80s and 90s toys and props. 🐸👍. from one frog to another your awesome 🐸👍 .
