Adventure people is an interesting choice. Adventure people kind of got overshadowed by Star Wars in my childhood but I still enjoyed it a lot. One thing about it is there was no bad guys or evil in that world just adventure! Thanks for the video!

Great choices! I'm 51, so a lot of those really do pull at the old nostalgia heartstrings. My Top 5: 1. Super Powers Collection (Kenner, 1984-1986) 2. G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero (Hasbro, 1982-1994) 3. Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (LJN, 1983-1984) 4. Star Wars (Kenner, 1978-1985) 5. World's Greatest Super Heroes! (Mego, 1972-1983) Cheers!

I was a kid in the 70's and became a youth in the 80's, I'm not a toy collector but its grest being reminded of those times and the toys I had and some I even struggle to remember and are always displayed by 2 likeable blokes in this great shop. 👍

I think my number one would be TMNT for sure as i'm an 80's kid. I also loved Alf as a kid, I have pictures of me in kindergarten wearing a sleeveless alf for preseident shirt and i forget the other but it was alf also. One easter i opened a little plastic egg at an easter egg hunt and i found a small rubber alf and it was one of my fav little toys.

I had totally forgot that I used to have the Space Invaders Pocketeers game, I also had one you didn't have there, I think it was called The Monkey Puzzle? I'm personally a Star Wars Collector and have been since 78 and don't see any reason to stop. Great Video with brilliant content and brought to me my two awesome dudes that aren't PC!

Well done gentlemen on another great review. I’m very surprised at Joes no 1 and very glad. FB Adventure figures really deserve their spot in the best action figure hall of fame. I still remember getting them when I was 4 and my emergency ambulance and motor cross off road Bike and side car duo and my rubber duck and scuba diving couple where the heroes of all my adventures. Of course vintage SW is right up there as my favourites as well. 😉

I took 7 bin bags of boxed STARWARS collectables and other merchandise when these two gentlemen were away on a UK tour. I left it all with two another individuals who then appraised it and then offered me a measly £100 for the lot via a text message a few days later ?,you live and learn but either way on reflection I was ripped off.

In the condition they were in we wouldn’t have normally bought them to be honest. The two lads who did buy them didn’t do anything wrong. Your collectibles were chess sets Etc it’s all sat in our basement awaiting being taken to auction as we wouldn’t be able to sell them in the shop. Please feel free to come and pick them up and return the £100 to us if you are unhappy. We don’t want anyone to feel that way.
